Owning? He was the benefit of penetration by other guys and being left WIDE open. It's not like we fed him and he was dominating the post...

If you watch this team enough, the telltale signs are so predictable, it's not funny. It's the reason why there are no mega blowouts ever. The team is mentally allergic to playing with maximum effort in any sustained type of fashion.

Kobe could have easily just made those shots like he did in the first quarter, and your piehole wouldn't be uttering a yap right now.
