WOW!! two behind the back dribbles. he just made kobe look reaaaaaal bad. how embarrasing. go pistons
Kobe hasn't had it the last 3 nights, including this game. But it looks like Prince just woke him up, because Kobe's taken it to the rack finally. Seven attempts and counting. Hopefully we don't see anymore forced 20 footers from him and he ends up dropping 30 on Detroit and getting LA a W.

WHOOOOOOOOO</div> You know what is so funny about you? The funny part is that you don't expect your favorite team to beat Lakers, you wish any other team to beat Lakers. You just wish any team but Lakers to win the champion huh. Too bad Lakers is still the first runner-up, Western Conference champion, when Celtics still lost in the first round of the playoff. Your Celtics hasn't done <strike>shit</strike> in years. At the moment Lakers are finished, Celtics has enjoyed the summer for so many weeks already. <font color="Blue">Please watch the language - Shard</font>

It's like saying Kobe over Yao was a facial. It wasn't. It's like saying Parker's crossover on Kobe was a ankle breaker. It wasn't. This wasn't a ankle breaker. Defenders are suppose to shift their feet depending on where the ball handler is going, so Kobe just happened to lose Prince because the offensive players knows how to own the defensive player and the defensive player doesn't know because he doesn't know what the offensive player is going to do with the ball. A ankle breaker is when the defender goes the other way, or if he falls down. Neither happened to Kobe.

Kobe broke him nasty. He practically ate crap face first trying to guard Kobe... Good ankle breaking, but no finish... Damn, Kobe! An even better example would be Stephon knocking the Great Wall down... Anyone remember that? Tayshaun did not shake anyone... It was just a spur of the moment for this guy.

Actually Teyshaun broke kobes ankles on this play a LOT worse than kobe broke spree on the one youre talking about. DAMNNNN teyshaun. u made kobe look baaaaaaaad
I really doubt that it hurt Kobe's feelings any. Tayshaun just threw it around his back...big deal. He had too much momentum, and he was already on his way to the hoop, so if Kobe would've happened to attempt the steal, the refs may have called a foul on him. As a guard, I've pushed the ball up the court and I've thrown it behind my back many times to change directions, NOT to shake anyone...and that's all that Prince did was change direction. Swinging the ball behind the back just allowed him to change hands...Kobe wasn't guarding him and wasn't running the court with him in the first place, so in actuality...Prince was pushing the ball. Put Prince and Kobe 20 feet from the hoop and start play from there...and we'll see how well Tayshaun can do without pick and rolls and screens...just one on one.
