I knew it was too late for the Lakers to win the game when the 3s went up. The fact that Kobe made them, and the fact that he actually gave the Lakers a slight chance for OT should have been noted, but not by that poster.

As he admits, "they get NO praise from me." I don't think anyone is asking for praise, just acknowledgement that at times Kobe can be clutch.

Everybody knows kobe is the best in clutch no doubt but even though kobe is playing great, he aint helping his team overall because he's playing too much 1 on 1 instead of moving the ball more. Both bynum and now howard who both are easily the the top 2 best centers in the nba when healthy have bashed kobe cause kobe barely give them the ball more. The lakers are playing terrible ron because of 2 things, no defense but most of all no ball movement.

If you honestly think they are the reason for the Lakers struggles then you should just stop watching basketball, because you know absolutely nothing at all about the game or how it's played. End of story.

...and yet you're saying that the coach shouldn't take any blame at all for this? And instead you're putting some blame on Kobe?

It's not the most coherent argument I've ever seen...

I said "at the time." Did you criticize the Lakers for making these moves at the time? That's the question. You're judging the result. They would've been silly to turn down upgrading to Nash and Howard.
