Scoreboard. Kobe was mad and its silly to think who would win in a fight. Dwight has too much physical tools and gifts from GOD.
you not be serious that was a weak call by the ref.. let them play ball, man!! no-call at best! you wanna hang around and swipe at the big expect to get bowed fool!
No love for Pat Bev? That was awesome to see him protect the big man, pushing the faker players away, even pushed the ref away from Howard, lol.
Oh my bad. Chris Childs was the mother****er that two pieced Kobe in his stupid ****ing face. It was Reggie Miller who slammed p***y ass Kobe onto a table.
Don't forget 2002 playoffs elbow on Mike Bibby. That was a game/ series changer from what I remember.
Does this sound right to you all? This doesn't sound like kobe's voice to me... <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/urQrsF6Syqk" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> Either way, Lin looks like he's thinking, " oh, so this is what its really like to play with him."
meh ... no real fight Seems like they're both afraid of each other, so they just exchanged a lot of "soft" taunts. Not even cussing
Kobe's just pissed because he knows he's in for a terrible season. He's putting his frustration out on Dwight as a scape goat to the reason the Lakers are so bad.
Listening to people like Reggie Miller, Cari Champion, Skip Bayless, Max Kellerman, Michelle Beadle and pretty much the entire country...they are never gonna see Kobe as the villain in this fiasco. They're not the most objective of sport pundits. Kobe showed just how petty he is. Its easy to beat your chest and try "to make an example out of" Dwight when you're on you home court. 1. Kobe fouled him first with an uncalled for slap on the arm 2. Dwight wasn't swinging his elbows wildly (he was doing the fundamentals) 3. Dwight is NOT soft...and even if he so what. Kobe wanted the camera to see that. 4. Kobe, Laker Nation, and the casual basketball fan showed their true nature and came off looking worse for it. SUCK IT BIASED MEDIA
I don't think that is the case. Seems Kobe is afraid of Dwight, hence all the dodging and weaving to make sure he was behind people while he was jawing. I think Dwight is afraid of what he might do and the price he would pay if he did it. Two different things. Kobe is like a dipped cone. Hard shell on outside, soft on the inside. Like someone else alluded to, if he played in an earlier era, he would not be nearly as successful. If he played that Knicks team we beat, he would drive the lane for a quarter at best and then be reduced to a whimpering jump shooter the rest of the series.
I agree about Kobe, but I think Dwight knows he's not doing anything himself either. You can call it soft, carefree, or whatever, but Dwight doesn't really have that kind of aggression or mentality. Not that I've ever seen, anyway. Sometimes we assume big guys can dish out a beating because they are big, but that's not always the case. He'll dunk hard and lift heavy weights, but does that primarily come from his size or aggression? I'd say size.
