<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Cody 7k:</div><div class="quote_post">Meanwhile, Ray Allen is gonna forget about it all</div> yeah right! ray allen said that he won't take it personal but who knows. the matchup is still in his head and impossible to get rid off if you're with they guy on the same floor. that's only his excuse just in case they lose to the lakers. win or lose, kobe will be criticized
<div class="quote_poster">Quoting Cody 7k:</div><div class="quote_post">Kobe's gonna make this a personal one-on-one game with Ray Allen.</div> That's what the majority thinks Kobe is going to do, whether he does or not remains to be seen. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Meanwhile, Ray Allen is gonna forget about it all and just play regular Basketball, that is -whatever it takes to win.</div> I don't think Allen is going to make this a Kobe vs. Allen thing. He wants a Sonics win more than anything, but beating Kobe will be the icing on the cake. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">In short, Kobe is gonna jack up 10,000 shots trying to "show up" Ray Allen. And by doing this, he'll shoot his average 25% and lose the game. </div> Like I said earlier, that's what the majority thinks Kobe is going to do, whether he does or not remains to be seen. Kobe hears the media. He knows that everyone expects him to make this Kobe vs. Ray instead of the Lakers vs. Sonics. That's why I think he will play more of a team game. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Kobe needs to grow up. He's been bugging me almost as bad as 'Melo does lately</div>. I do agree that Kobe need to get is act together and don't say another word to the media.

Just something I'd like to point out really quickly... Ray's comment on Kobe: <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">"There was a point where I think he (Bryant) was going at me a little bit at the top of the key and there wasn't much I could do about it," Allen said. "He was making a lot of tough shots tonight. I like Kobe as a person and I respect how he plays." </div> http://www.nba.com/games/20041214/LALSEA/recap.html I'm a little shocked...but Ray Allen has earned my respect for not attacking Kobe.
