recap # Kobe continued his solid play since the 3 game layoff and had 8 assts and 2 turnovers continuing to be unselfish and trust his teammates. He hit a huge 3 with 24 secs left to pull the lakers within 1. He almost made a crazy 3 ptr with .6 secs left that would of sent the game into overtime. The one negative i have of kobe since the layoff is he continues to putrid defensively and not guard a soul. he gives up way 2 many open looks and doesnt make players uncomfortable when he guards them
recap # C+ # kobe would of gotten a strong B if he makes that 3 regardless if they win in OT

recap # kobe was solid from start to finish and actually closed this game vintage style with 9 pts in the last 2:25 of regulation. The only reason i didnt give kobe an A grade cause once again he played no defense whatsoever and actually has turned into a very poor defender. His 6 assts and 6 rebs were solid and he has been a consistent facilitator since the layoff avg 8 assts per game. But the way he closed was good to see.

recap # this was a classic case where kobe came out to cool for school. Kobe was too obvious in telegraphing his facilitating. he was passing up good looks and over facilitating way too much. The only positive aspect of his game was 8 rebs 7 assts. Other than that he absolutely stunk going a putrid 2-12 from the field and 6 turnovers. His +/- was -34 was the worst this season.
overall grade # D- # only reason why i didnt fail him was because of the 8 rebs 7 assts

recap # this was a wierd game to watch and evaluate kobe cause looked quick and his legs looked good but the ball just didnt go in the basket. Defensively he looked active and spree but going 3-19 doesnt prove my point in the least bit. Kobe could of easily had 15 assts in this game and nobody including himself could make a shot. His 7 assts to 2 turnovers is a solid ratio. Kobes 3-19 was not only putrid enough but what was worst was his stubbornness to not go to the basket and continue to jack up 3's and take long 2 pt jumpshots. He went 2-9 from deep and i have to grade him tough on that.
recap # D- # shoots to many long tough jumpshots # Get in the paint a bit more

recap # Kobe was fun too watch this game. the 17 assts wasnt that big of a deal to me. What i loved about his game was out of the 14 fga he only forced a couple of bad shots. Early on defensively he was very lazy but later in the game he tried to amp it up defensively especially vs LBJ. In the final 40 secs the lakers were down by 3 and kobe made a huge defensive mistake playing too close on LBJ and got muscled to the basket for a game clinching bucket by the KING. Kobe was solid all around and shockingly and abnormally efficient . His 17 assts to 3 turnovers is almost impossible to do if ur handling the ball that much. This was by far one of Kobes 5 best performances of the year which probably isnt saying much cause he has stunk for most of the year
overall grade # B+ # Would of definitely gotten an A if he would of been able to close and win a great comeback but he came up a little short

recap # Kobe had a very minimal impact on this game and rite when he showed a replica move of the vintage kobe he hurts his shoulder. I continue to reiterate this point Bean needs to retire and walk away from the remaining 35 million that is owed to him # just my opinion cause if i was in his shoes i wouldnt walk away from that money either so i aint mad at him. Every part of kobes game tonite was avg, sub par , minimal ect of impact. he shot okay going 6/14. he would of had at least 12 assts if any member of the lakers could make a shot so i wont dock him strongly for having a 2 assts to 4 turnovers ratio. Bryant defensively was god awful as usual and he pretty much let his defender shoot without contesting a single shot the whole nite.
