The term "saved" implies that you do know. You Kobe fanboys are basically saying that the team would've lost the game had Kobe not stepped up. That's what saved means. I'm saying that it wasn't like that because there were other guys on that team capable of stepping up had Kobe not done so. You trying to tell me that I didn't see the game because I'm not cosigning you all's dikriding opinion says it all. Using your dumbass logic, Wade actually saved the game because he did the most and if it wasn't for his amazing 1st half the game wouldn't have been close in the 4th qtr. What's the problem with just saying that Kobe stepped up in that 4th qtr and lead them to the win? Why must you put extras on the shyt. Rhetorical question, it's obvious why you do so.
:kobewut: Don't be crazy. He saved the day. If there were others capable of stepping up had he not done so, why didn't they?

Third, for most of the Games, Team USA had an alpha dog issue. Was this Kobe's team or LeBron's? Fast-forward to 8:13 left: Fernández's three cuts the lead to two; the crowd is going bonkers. Spain's bench reacts like a euphoric 15-seed during a March Madness upset, and the U.S. calls timeout. All along, my biggest fear had been a tight game and multiple USA guys saying, "I got it!" Instead, everyone deferred to Kobe, who made some monster plays to clinch it. Know that in the history of the NBA we have never had the best-player-alive argument resolved so organically. Incredible. Kobe, you have the Lord of the Flies conch. Use it wisely.
