Dunno who that is.

That’s not who messaged me.

There actually was no name attached.

Doesn’t matter.

Im not trying to start shit with anyone.

So, I will just stay clear.

There’s never a name attached. They aren’t transparent. They’re a bunch of cowards who earlier in life wore a sash as the safety monitor and now powertrip being a moderator on a message board.

I go way back with Bama grad when she was a moderator on Rivals. I had the old lady so worked up her husband joined the site just to yell at me….again…next level steps taken and it is EXACTLY what I want haha.

He missed 10 of 14 shots, some were bunnies.

He got his shit packed, TWICE, by 6’5 Komchar.

Lethargic is the word that most comes to mind for me.

He blocked a bunch of shots.

But, still got outplayed badly by the Griz bigs.

JJJ, he was a Allstar, you live with that.

But, Tillman?

Right, those things happened because of double and triple teams every time he touched the ball. Guys hitting shots or moving better would stop that and make it easier for him.

Because of the double and triple teams, he would pass the ball back out or pass to someone cutting to the basket. Problem was...guys weren't hitting shots and there was very little cutting to the basket. The Lakers got a few easy baskets on the few times they actually did cut to the basket.

Those things are going to happen sometimes. When Shaq found himself in that situation, he'd just start attacking that himself and score or draw fouls. That's what I wish AD would do more of. On the very few times he tried to just power the ball to the basket, he either scored or got fouled. He just didn't do it enough.

Kobe would have gone for like 50-60 if Brooks pulled that shit against him.

Definitely.

But would it lead to a win?

I know LeBron can go for 40. But I doubt he will try to do that.

Going to make sure the Lakers get that W instead.

Yeah, it would have.....just like when Kobe went for the 81 spot vs the Raps.

Alright I looked it up.

His record with 50 point games was 18-7. Better than I thought.

So they probably win.

But don’t pretend like it is automatic.

When he got 50 in the flow it was always a good thing for the Lakers.

There were some games where he seemed to hunt shots a bit too much, and others where he passed up shots attempting to troll critics.

You seem to be putting Kobe on too much of a pedestal here.

72% when he scored 50-plus.

Pretty fucking good. LOL.
