what a stupid play by the lakers after getting the stop. kobe should have just held it or vujacic should have just held it. getting it to odom for his usual bricks was horrible. and then odom bricks both on schedule. but kobe with the huge offensive rebound and now a chance to make up for the missed ft's by odom.
Props to JVG for calling that rebound by Kobe, who did the same thing to us the 2nd game of the season.
wow, Kobe drive EVERY TIME he got the ball late the in 4th. That guy is good. And prop to JVG indeed.
You also can't beat him if your perimeter defenders let him blow right by them every time and get straight to the basket. Free throws tend to happen that way.
Dirk puts the ball on the floor and chokes again. That's how you defend Dirk. Just wait for him to put the ball down and take a slap.
Phil Jackson is an idiot if he refuses to foul in that situation... especially with Dallas having no timeouts. And they give up a great look at a 3... terrible defense by the Lakers, terrible decision by Phil Jackson.
