This. I was getting on him saying he needs to pass, but almost every time he attacked and was fouled, he didn't get the calls. Had his name been Durant, James, or Wade, hell even Maggette, he would've gotten the calls.

Pau needed more touches. They better step it up for the next game.

Horrible game. Glad it's over.

That's simply not true. Kobe normally gets the superstar calls like the others do.

So when he was attacking and didn't get some calls, what happened? I said before, I didn't really like his 2nd half, but you can't say he was getting calls when he attacked the rim. I'm SOOOOOOOOOOO surprised he didn't get ejected.

Stop blaming the refs. Kobe was forcing the issue. He didn't deserve any calls.

As if Durant and the others don't and doesn't recieve calls either. At least he wasn't just shooting jumpers. He was ATTACKING, TRYING to get to the foul line. How many times have some of you yelled at and cursed him for settling for jumpshots, and not attacking. Should he have passed more? Hell yes, but I rather that he attack trying to get to the line than just settling for those long, force jumpers.

Sorry but that is simply NOT true. Bryant was clapping, slapping, complaining, yelling and shouting at the refs after not getting calls he should have been getting yet the refs refused to T him up because THEY KNEW that he was right. That was some F'ed up stuff. Dude was getting no respect.

Just repeating what some people like Chris Broussard are saying.

That's so true. How many times have refs T'd Kobe up so fast after he complained for not getting a call? Kobe was comlpaining so much, and he didn't get a T.... That says ALOT. These refs do not hesitate to give him a tech, yet he didn't get one tonight despite doing basically EVERYTHING that's qualified as a T in the new tech rule book.

I actually thought (according to the new rules) that with the way he was going, he should've been ejected.

Kobe is lucky he didn't get a T when throwing his hands in the air after the last two drives to the basket.

bruddahmanmatt and I aren't the only one's who noticed that KB is lucky he didn't get T'd up. You watch games from last year, you could see how easily Kobe got T'd. Now he was complaining like a madman tonight, and didn't get t'd. That says something.

Exactly. Even Bryant had something to say about the calls during the post-game interviews in the locker room. I'm sure there'll be a fine or two.
