Kobe Bryant promised retribution against Andrei Kirilenko if any Utah newspaper dared write that Kirilenko had shut him down in the fourth quarter of the Lakers' loss last Friday night to the Jazz."If I read a Utah paper that says Kirilenko stopped me, the next time I see him I'm going right at him," said Bryant, who scored just two points in that fourth quarter.Bryant exacted his revenge Thursday night, unleashing his fury against Kirilenko and any other Jazz player who had the misfortune of getting in his way while he dropped a season-high 52 points in just three quarters in the Lakers' 132-102 victory before 18,997 at Staples Center."Yeah, you remember what I said, and I wasn't joking," Bryant said. "(Darn) right, I was going at him. I was watching film, and I heard them say, 'Kirilenko is doing a good job against Kobe.' I was like, 'OK, we'll see.' So, yeah, I wanted to show him what was up." http://www.pe.com/sports/basketball/breako...01.3bb2c3e.html
He should've been determined both games... but it's cool to see what he can do when there are doubters.
