    So there was a drive where Kobe decided to "bite" his jersey and hold it on a drive on a live play during the 4th quarter. (84-75)

    Well if I'm not mistaken, he missed it. Gasol had to tip it in on a putback, I saw chuck hayes saying it was OFFENSIVE GOALTENDING...but I guess maybe not.

    The point is...it looks like he was trying to showboat as if he was about to set off a "Laker's Comeback". It would have looked beautiful on the ESPN highlights and covers of newspapers and magazine photos or whatever....but the Rockets responded...and there was no justification for the "tugging at the jersey in the trenches" effort, cuz there was no comeback.

    Let this be an ode and testament to a king trying to defame us at our house.
    Unsuccessful in his attempt...thanks Kobe.

    .. Stephen A Smith? He doesn't even work for ESPN anymore. I meant I don't see how you equate putting your jersey in your mouth to showboating. He was just trying to score.

    That's the reason why no one want to play with Kobe, he is such an a$$! And all his teammates just looked away LOL!

    If i was Gasol i would have punched kobe!

    Wow, you sure do get a lot from somebody keeping his jersey in his mouth as he drove. lol. I think you're overreacting a bit, but hey, if it pumps you up, more power to you.

    oh stephen A smith doesnt work for ESPN?
    wow. really?

    and kobe was trying to talk with his teammate right before the play happened with the jersey in his mouth...obviously he didn't talk enough to let go of the jersey so he could deliver a clear message...what a show-off.

    he was just trying, to score...yeah, i'm glad for him.

    what gives.

    the reason why guys is because the commentator called out Kobe's play...like it was designed or planned.

    Goats do this all the time. They just get hungry and will stick anything in their mouth. Found a pic of Kobe doing this in the locker room too.

    a rude man , kobe. no one would like to be insulted in this way,espn got the scene, giving a chance to show kobe's gentle behavior, it;s funny, gasol is likely to be a thin man, haha!

    That was not showboating. If they didn't show the replay we wouldn't even know about it.
