    Teh Black Mamba is a better defender than Michael Jordan.

    Looks like Kobe is practicing his flops during the preseason. That's good. He'll need those more and more as he gets older. That way, he can get beat, flop and still win!... or flop poorly and look like a kirilinki-hole.

    Kobe, welcome to the second half of your career.

    Yeah, Kob' got his ankles broken.

    Although if you look at Beno's arm, he did push off some.

    Beno has been coming on strong for Kings. He was really good for them in last season's second half.

    he didn't push off. he arm extends but hardly enough contact to consider pushing off and certainly not enough to send kobe flying.

    from the looks of it, it is an amazing skill by kobe to actually be complaining about the call before he hit the ground

    Beno has really grown up since going to the Kings. I guess Pop just wasn't the coach for him because he stayed in his doghouse continually. When Jacque Vaughn beat him out for backup PG, you knew Beno's days with the Spurs were numbered.

    He isn't that good of a PG but at least Beno is serviceable. Let's see if he can do it 2 years in a row.

    they didn't criticize you because you wanted him on the rockets, they criticized you because you thought it would be realistic that we could get him (cheap). ;)

    So what? If you play defense, there' s always a chance you got embarrassed. Case in the point, Yao got posterized when trying a contend a dunk.

    Maybe some players don't play one lick of defense because they don't want people like you to make a big deal out of it...

    Hopefully Kobe learned that Beno is a lefty.

    Bryon Russell.

    The only reason I bothered to point this out is because I used to get it confused when I was younger. It always seems like it should be Byron.

    Yeah, this wasn't as bad as people think. Kobe got beat and Beno pushed off a little, then Kobe flopped. He didn't really get his ankles broken (atleast not in the falling down sense).
