  Haha, yea. All hell is about to break loose. The words "Lebron," "Cavs," and "GOAT" are about to pop up all over the place despite having nothing to do with this game and not being mentioned once in this thread yet.
  
  Odds are it wil start with an LA fan saying Kobe is the real MVP or this is what separates Kobe and Lebron or yada yada yada. Insert Cavs fan getting his or her panties in a wad, and it's a party.

  You're the one who just got the ball rollin'...

  Just stating the obvious. Everyone knows that how this shit is is going to go. And the fact that we know how it's going to go proves how retarded it is.

  OMG, LeBron wouldn't have even been in this situation because he's the best player in the league.. lmao, figures Kobe would need a game winning shot to beat the RAPTORS!!!!?!?!?!??
  
  TURRIBLE!

  Agreed with this though. When Kobe only has to(or chooses to) shoot somewhere in that 18-22 shot range, that's when LA is most efficient. They're one of the best defensive teams in the league this year so when they get efficient offensive play it'll be hard for anyone except Cleveland to defeat them over an extended series.

  He averages like 20-21 shots a game, and they have the 2nd best record in the league. So that's obviously when they're the most effective. Farther over that average he goes, the lower their chance of winning goes.

  Kobe's ability to make difficult shots is better than anyone's in the league.
  
  
  NOTE: Not saying he's the best player in the league, but if you want ONE player to take a contested difficult jumper to win a game, gimme Kobe over Lebron, Wade, and Carmelo.

  Am I the only one who notices how he doesn't ever get immediately doubled in these situations thought?! I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!!

  Lol SC had some kind of graphic with stats that said he was 1 game winning shot or shot int he last 10 seconds or something along those lines above Melo including last nights shot. And only 2 in front of Crawford. Anybody remember what the exact details of it were?
• sportswizuhrd

  It was for most in a season over the past 5 seasons, if we saw the same thing. I don't think he is 1-2 in front of whoever has the second most this year. I would like to see his stats compared to Melo and Crawford during their respective seasons.

  Ok thats what it was, knew it was something along those lines
