typical stupid shit, why is kobe a joke? why are we laughing at kobe? because normal recollection of michael jordan is him nailing a 17 foot jump shot against utah? the flu game?

it's so silly, we're LMAO at a guy who led his team to a 2-0 lead. i'm so sick to death of the senseless jordan comparisons that im really gonna puke. lol shit he blew it, his team is now only up 2-1, lmao lmao lmao, what a clown

why dont we all do this, forget about jordan, he's not playing. kobe will be fine, he will win a title this year, and we can all laugh about the stupidity of this thread

i don't get it anyway, isn't the NBA all scripted and fixed? why would we laugh at kobe? or any team or player for that matter? isn't this shit all scripted and more or less going by a precise plan of action? whatever, i guess we knock a guy for not being jordan when he doesnt even want to be jordan, but someone misses a free throw and the NBA is fixed.

you can't have it both ways. sorry, kobe didn't close this one, was this a must win game? are you sure you can dig up facts that show that michael jordan never lost a game or played poorly after being up 2-0 on a team in the finals? i bet not.

let me put it to you this way and if you don't read or pay attention to anyting else, pay attention to this, KOBE BRYANT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH MICHAEL JORDAN, HE NEVER HAS, HE NEVER WILL. THE ONLY IDIOTS STILL TRYING TO MAKE COMPARISONS AND CONTRASTS ARE THE GUYS WHO GET PAID TO WRITE ARTICLES AND ARE LOOKING FOR PEOPLE READ THEM. PLEASE STOP THE COMPARISONS. THERE ISN'T ONE.

I DON'T WANT TO BE THE NEXT MICHAEL JORDAN, I ONLY WANT TO BE KOBE BRYANT.

but you guys are right, kobe a clown, how could they lose a game by 2 on the road, what a joke.

don't really get it though, if you have a magic avatar and this team is so talented, there should be no shame right? whatever dude, jordan = 0 relevance to this series

LOL at "Superman"....wow he gets 15 boards and makes 5 FGs a game.

The real LOL will come when Orlando fans think after they lose this year they'll ever get back to the big game....shooting teams like Orlando are one-hit wonders

D Fish stinks and stinks bad, he is a defensive liability and nothing like the shooter he once was. Farmer and to a lessor extent Brown should be seeing more time, JMO.

Howard is strong, dominant even, nothing like him since Shaq came into the league

But he has a lot of work to do, basically if you deny the entry pass away from the basket,

where he has to dribble more then once, he can be contained.

If his back is to the basket, Gasol can cover him all by himself

In contrast Gasol has so many moves its disgusting. Imagine Gasol with Howards body

i agree on all points, you just can't call a guy superman who can't really do much to win you a game.

shaq was always a scoring machine and if you gave him the ball inside 10 feet it was a guaranteed score, howard has none of those shooting skills at all
