Why Doesn't Kobe Get Respect From Officials?

In before fanboys

 

how about tell him to drive at the rate those guys drive (except for KD)

kobe is a perimeter-oriented player. if you rarely drive, you're not going to get all the calls.

oh wait, he still gets 7 ft attempts in 33 minutes of playing time. please stop complaining.

everybody misses calls.

EDIT: and you can see why a foul wasn't called. his shot was block CLEAN. got contact as he was falling down, not on the shot.

 

this is one game...one call and on that note...it's the last minute of a game, a lot of calls are just a play on that late....Kobe has probably averaged 8-10 freethrows a game over his career, I'm sure someone can find the numbers on that, he gets to the line a lot.

As well it really depends on the refs angle on the play as well.

 

Are you serious? They don't call fouls against him.

You really think the ref standing on the sideline didn't have a good enough view to make that call?

 

Is this April 1st?

 

because the contact occured after he got his ass stripped.

no foul quit crying

 

i have to say, i did not expect a serious thread.

 

Is this a ****ing joke? Fix my sarcasm meter or kill yourself.

 

Kobe is #13 on all-time career free throw attempts and could possibly be in the top 5 when it is all said and done.

 

But it could have something to do with this:

Did I accidentally go to theonion.com?

You've got to be kidding...he may not have received that call, but that's because the only thing that beats out a superstar call is a noncall in the favor of a home team that's a contender. It has more to do with trying to give OKC more room to come back.

kobe gets his share of calls, but if he drove more he'd get more.

 

This is a brilliant "sarcasm" thread. I love it.

Kobe doesn't get calls! :grin:

 

I'm going to cut the OP some slack and believe he started this thread out of sarcasm.

Guy, if you really believe Kobe doesn't get "respect", clueless would be a compliment.

 

If he played in MJ's era they'da sodomized him in the paint and sent him back to Greece with his daddy and the rest of the pansies.

 

i luv it when he doesn't get that 1 out of 25 calls go his way and then he cries and stomps all the way back down court like a 2 year old girl with overflowin huggies and a rash to boot
