This is such a garbage post...How about you look at all the facets Kobe had to fill post Shaq. NOBODY could score on that team. He had to fill up the bucket those years for the Lakers to come close to sniffing a win, its obvious he chose to take it down a notch on D or he would have had a heart attack on the floor. Now that he can RELY on teammates he is back to being amazing on D. Bring me more Kobe hate! BRING IT!!!
