Imao I don't think Clutch demotes/keep people in rook status because of someone's opinion, which in this case is true, that is , if you've followed Tmac from his early days, or unless you're a TOH. It is well know that Tmac IS a good defender when he puts his effort into it. Why won't you say that Artest is a bad defender when Tmac consistently scores 40 points on him? On a side note, we suck on defense now
That is unadultered garbage. Kobe is the Laker's primary facilitator and primary scorer. However, Kobe creates by attacking and find teamates inside or open shooters. He puts pressure on the opponent's who doubled him and then he'll find open people. Kobe's job in the triangle is to be 1- Primary scorer 2- Primary facilitator/playmaker 3- Guard the best swingman 4- Primary clutch player He is not just a scorer, that is the biggest BS.
