But when he can CONTINUE getting his shots off effectively, he should. I think what they need to work on is having Dwight crash with him and have the others move around behind those two. Kobe can hit Dwight with lobs and it'd make Dwight feel better while getting a couple of better looks every now and then. It took Drew a while to learn this, but he got it eventually and Kobe found him. Gasol obviously got it immediately because that man is a genius.

Good point, the other players need to continue to move on offense even if Kobe is taking the shots. Those last few possessions were not pretty, but I'll take a W at this point in the season.

This ^^^. Personally I think he's sandbagging all of us. Unless the knees start killing him, with his skills and talent why would he walk away? What if Kobe was true to his word to Dwight and was still alfa dog, the Lakers being his team through the last year of his top of the mountain contract.......

Then just to do something never done before, take a fraction of his salary to come back and be the best damn #2 option to Dwight and whoever else they can lure to L.A. Money's not a problem for him. Those rings are still out there to be had and the "lists" of all time numbers still to be climbed. How fun would that be?

Cough cough....OK who wants a hit off this pipe next

But I have a question, when Kobe retires will people remember this run at age 34 in his career?
