Anybody notice how much better the Lakers were without Kobe?

[freelee]

his teammates continue to bail him out and he continues to blame them for every loss

Trust me.... If the guy would just take some time off the team wouldnt miss a beat.

They need him for the playoffs, b/c nobody else on the team has big enough balls to carry a team.

But the regular season... More Gasol, and less Kobe please.

Kobe is a "numbers" player especially when winning the game is in check. He has the ability to create for his teammates, but does not do so as much as he could/should. Last nite just under 3 minutes and Lakers only winning by 3 Kobe made a strong move to the basket and the defense collapsed on him and he kicked it out to a wide open Ron Artest that nobody was within 20 ft of. Artest knocked the 3 down. Kobe also set Gasol up nicely twice as well. Kobe is a selfish player. Did you see him "streetballin" VC at 3 pt line last nite and then bricking the 3? I laughed my ass of. I thought I was watching a "AND1" game
