what an impressive game. Isnt that the high of the season for any player? I want to know why the officials allowed a player to shoot over 30 free throws. That is ridiculous..

Gilbert had a great game, but when you scored 81 points at some point or another, you congratulate nobody
:censored2: KobePeople always say he can score however many points he wants when motivated. Oh really?Why doesn't he just !@#$% score 80 points every game and have his team go undefeated? You make it sound like he can.Point is, Gilbert scored 60 and his team won. Kobe got owned.Kobe is so eratic. He will score 5 points in a quarter than score 25 in the next. Does he really need thatmuch motivation?Hey, why doesn't he look at his 20 million dollar contract. I hope that's enough motivation for you no-good/eratic/!@#$% Kobe!@#$% Kobe

Well there's the reason why no one likes Kobe. Can't give anybody credit when they owned him. He scored 33 points on him and then Kobe had 5 fouls so he was part of the reason why Arenas got so many free throws. He just doesn't know how to give anybody any credit. And he talks about Arenas just chucking up shots when he does that more than anyone. He needs to stop making excuses when he underachieves and gives credit where it is due. 1 1/2 games now and going down. Thank you GA! Also kind of funny how LA gives up 147 points in an overtime game a couple weeks after Melo made fun of the Suns (on AIM) for giving up 157 in 2 overtimes.

Kobe doesn't have to give credit to anyone...Kobe always gives credit to guys weather your Kobe hate will allow you to see that or not. He even tipped his hat to Arenas so to speak and said that he played amazing. I think that is more than enough credit. When did Kobe say that he just chucks up shots? If he said it he obviously didn't mean it as an insult. Kobe in the games in which Odom is out because of his injury, Kobe is averaging over 38 points and 7 assists, and 9 rebounds per game. Stop acting like Kobe deserves to give people credit when the NBA should be kissing his feet in the first place.
Kobe scores 60 points in 3 quarters and nobody complains about the Mavs not giving him enough credit but when Arenas scores 60 points in 4 quarter regulation+ Overtime...everybody acts like Arenas deserves every praise in the world. As far as Kobe's comments which I just read on Lakersground, I think Kobe was shocked that he found someone who has a worse shot selection than he does.
