Look. Good.
with the way he has been fumbling the basketball all over the court and missing open shots he could probably use a couple of games off.
Assuming that he plays. Wouldn't want to give ourselves an unfair advantage with Smith on MWP down low, you know...
remember what happened to delfino when he Ginoblis sausage he came back and was going off and was making his shots
It's ok. We WANT Kobe jacking up more shots and Nash doing less. The real danger for us (with all their big guys out) is that Nash might somehow lead them to a run'n'gun victory and some of their guys get hot shooting 3s in rhythm. Kobe's offense is mainly half-court, and leads to longer rebounds. Since we ought to dominate the glass it opens up the fast-break. More Kobe shots please. I don't think he'll score 100, and we definitely will break that mark, soooo....
Probably a good thing that he takes a couple days off. Dude's been playing through injuries and it's showing with the way he fumbles with the ball and can't finish. And the Lakers are so depleted anyways I can still see us winning without Parsons.
