Okay, have you played competitive basketball before?

I said that your argument for rhythm can be used for ANY player and most game-winning shots... and you come back with this? The fact is, most players would have missed that shot.

Why would you double Kobe Bryant at the top of the trey, when all that would do is leave someone WIDE OPEN.... that is, with SIX SECONDS left in the game.

Let me help you, six seconds is more than enough time that, if you double Kobe Bean Bryant, you've got someone WIDE OPEN. That means no one is guarding the person and he is WIDE OPEN and will more than likely nail the shot. Because no one would be guarding that person.

Get it?

Cody, we all understand your arguement. You're absolutely correct. There's no use arguing with people blinded by hate. It's pointless.

One shot in a scrimmage game does not make one the best player. No way in hell any team would allow that many dribbles and separation without help in a real game.

it wouldnt matter.

If you've actually watched a basketball game, you'd know that a well-timed double doesn't necessarily leave someone wide open.

If thats true, I'm watching it again. Who's with me?

I'm watching it for the first time on NBATV!!! I watched on sopcast but it was the crappiest signal ever. Still, it worked when it counted and I saw the 3 shots by Kobe in the 4th!!

GO LAKERS!

Exactly. Kobe hits multiple clutch shots in a single game. How many times have we seen this?

And I still enjoy it more and more each time. I will never be desensitized!!!

You seriously think that they could have doubled Kobe Bryant without leaving someone wide open? Especially with 10-6 seconds left?

What's your argument anyway? That anyway could make a game-winning shot like Kobe Bryant because he had rhythm, spacing and shot over Jkidd (btw, you do realize that he wasn't shooting over JKdd right?). Well, anyone that can shoot a fadeaway? He didn't even fade that much on his shot.

I like how everyone starts saying Team USA will win gold after Kobe's game winner. I love Kobe but lets not get carried away. Teams have caught up with U.S. basketball, plain and simple. We should stop talking about blowing out people and concentrate on playing like a team.

heres a pic

can anyone upload this game on sendspace or something??? please

Nice shot! Kind of reminds me of his game winner against phoenix in 06 playoffs.

Overall an exciting game. Kind of like an all-star game.

Above my expectations.

I'm saying that it's not going to be that easy in a real game. In a real game, first they'll try hard to deny him the ball. If he does catch it, it'll likely be to the side where he'll have a lot less options. If he does get into that position, most likely, they'll help just right he looks like he was about to shoot, unless Prince was playing perfect defense, which he was not.

Teams haven't caught up with USA. You send an NBA scrub to Europe and he dominates and win MVPs. You send the best player from Europe and he *might* be the 6th man.

It's all about adjusting to the International play and rules.

Just finished watching the game. My thoughts.....

1. KB came to play, was amazing as usual. I'm not even amazed anymore at his skills, I expect him to dominate.
2. Mike Miller, damn ugly [Swearing is not permitted at Clublakers. You must edit this post prior to submitting.] haircut, but this guy was automatic from 3 point land. He should definitely make this squad, I loved his attitude out there.
3. Durant is going to be amazing. He is the best player coming out of this year's draft, period.
4. Amare looks completely useless out there. Guess he isn't as amazing when he isn't getting those passes from Nash.
5. Kidd is without question the best PG we have. Absolutely amazing passing from him today, Bynum better not be a bust otherwise we certainly missed the boat again.
6. Melo is a ballhog, didn't see anything special from him.

I'm not sure who's going to make the team, but I think we need speed over size to win.

I'm talking about international play not league wise.

I love snappers call after the shot. He said every guy on the court knew who the best player on the planet is.

A shame he wants out

You're acting as if Kobe has yet to prove that he can make a game winner in real NBA game. Does it really bother you that much that he made a game winning shot or have you recieved a message from God telling you to discredit Kobe whenever the oppurtunity presents itself?
