Kobe Bryant the ball hogger

SOFI and Bach your both wrong about Lebron James he is listed as forward. http://www.nba.com/playerfile/lebron_james/?nav=page

I agree with back that Kobe took way to many shots in that game there where two occasions that come to mind in the final minute during the rally where kobe had a trailing luke walton on one occasion for a very easy lay in instead he went up for a difficult layup that resulted in a trip to the line where he was anything but his normal self, shooting 66% instead of his normal 80% +.

Then there was another occasion where he could of once again dished the ball off on a steal and once again went to the rack and got to the line, it resulted in four points but the way he was shooting that night from the line it could have easily been only one point. My point is he didnt rely on any of the others on the court which is going to kill the Lakers in the long run, sometimes you have to feed that guy who is hustling down the court if anything to boost his confidence and maybe get him into the game more.

Look im a dir hard Lakers fan but i was not imprsssed at all by the Lakers in that game they played terriably the second half where stagnet standing around watching kobe dribble around throwing up all kinds of shots.

Kobe had a great feed to Kwame in the first half where Kwame put it down like a champ, its those kind of little things that he does need to do in the second half to get the others more involved down the stretch.

Yes i want kobe to take the last second shot, who wouldnt but sometimes he needs to realize that he cant do it all, I wish he could but he can not.

I dont ever expect him to pass like Nash, But if he is tripled team I do expect him to play smart ball and pass it to an open player. Sofi is right u can not ask a guy thats been shooting his whole life to pass though and there in lies the problem.

Actually I said Lebron is a shooting guard the least, meaning he is definitely not a point guard. He is a forward and the lowest he can play is shooting guard.

But anyway, I agree everything you say.

N for the the record Bach Kobe for his career has only averaged 4.5 assists, so your going to have to keep dreaming about him passing more.

Yet, I think you kind of contradicting yourself. First you say Kobe can't do it all by himself and therefore he needs to share the ball when he is trippled team but then you say your dreaming about him passing the ball because he averages low assists in his career.

And this is what I have to say to that, and to all Laker fans... yall can stop dreaming that Lakers will go anywhere if Kobe doesn't learn how to pass the ball.

I'm not saying he has to become Steven Nash because he won't be able to do that, but at the same time he needs to trust his teamates and pass the ball and like you said there were few occasions that he should have passed the ball in that game but he didn't.

Im not contradicting myself at all, Im just pointing out the obvious about Bryant, he is a shoot first, pass later player, I was agreeing with you when I said he should pass the ball more to get his teammates more.

man when the lakers lose and kobe scores a lot everyone says he should pass more when the lakers lose and kobe gets like 12 points everyone says he should of scored more its fukin ridiculous no wonder he wants a trade
 
Team work happened, great game for the Lakers, now if they can continue to build on that they could be deadly.

You're a fool for thinking that what you're listed for is what your actual position is. Lebron is a forward because of his physical size, not because of his game.

While thats true that if a player is listed as something, it doesn't necessarily mean he only plays that position. But in Lebron's case, he still is a forward, not because he is listed as forward but if you watch him play he plays forward position and rarely does he play point guard, only time he plays PG when the game is on the line and shit like that. But in most parts, he plays as a forward. They have Gibson and Hughes as guards and then Lebron as a forward.

LeBron handles the ball more than Gibson.
