    Not really. He did it the most, but wasn't the only one. Perkins did it some and Big baby did it a few times too.

    Kobe may be younger than Allen, but he came into the league at the same time and has played a LOT more playoff games. He's got just as many, if not more, miles on him.

    That wasn't the point. I was talking about the word "old" being thrown around loosely. You can argue Kobe has a lot of miles on him, but in general he's not old at all for a basketball player. He also didnt go to college or play as many minutes his first 2 years, so his mileage is a bit inflated. He's also hardly had any injuries, especially major ones, so again, his mileage isn't as bad as others.

    Yes, your body can wear down due to the wear and tear of playing, but naturally it'll also break down as you age, or get older, so my point was that's not Kobe's case right now.

    All the hate and "choking" media he probably got better light a huge fire under his butt, and get him going.

    :confused:
    If there's anything Ray allen doesn't lack it's confidence and consistency. You don't even get to 0 for 13 without being confident. You also don't shoot 90% FT and 40% 3pt for you career without having consistency. He's not a superstar because he never truly developed solid go-to moves.
