Whaaaaaaat?
You can't be serious.
A victory in game four against Oklahoma City would have tied the series at 2 all.
With Kobe Bryant on the bench, the Lakers were up 91-78 with 8 minutes left.
But Kobe wasn't satisfied and decided to go into "Kobe-Ball".
If Kobe says "Pau has got to be more aggressive", than he certainly demonstrated how to.
Kobe returned to the court and shot 2-of-10, consequently surrendering an unassailable 13-point lead.
He missed five consecutive shots before finally passing to Bynum in the post. But by that time, Bynum who had scored 18 points, was already out-of-rhythm and missed the shot.
Kobe's repertoire of forced shots involved double teams, turnaround jumpers, baseline traps, rushed 3-pointers- the whole works.
For Kobe to target Gasol is unexplainable.
You can call Gasol a llama but don't use him as your scapegoat.
