Kobe fans NEED to see a therapist. This isn’t healthy

Exhibit number 1. This dude buys Kobe dolls and claims LeBron have his kid ped’s and almost killed him.

I don’t mind that the record was broken. It’s just fugazi because it was manufactured. That’s Coach Spo’s fault. He put a black eye on Bam’s accomplishment.
They all got shamelessly carried away but it was still a monumental moment regardless

The Lakers were in the same position as The Heat currently are in hierarchy and expectation (Wasn’t Tony Battie & Chris Mihms on that team)
The Raptors were lambasted for their defend strategy back then no differently than The Wiz were

The difference was aside from the 1st quarter Bam got his super ugly
When Kobe's on the team, the team is trying to win a Championship. Kobe had 3 chips before he did the 81.
When you play for the Lakers - even if a player like Nick Young is on the team - the expectation is always: a chip.

Nobody, and I mean NOBODY including even the entire Miami Heat roster and front office included thinks "we're going for a chip" in Miami.
Nobody has that expectation. No fans, no press, nobody. It's not a winning culture or mindset, at all.

I don't remember the Raptors having the same terrible reputation the Wizards have. It's practically a guaranteed, effortless W when you play the Wizards.

But even if everything you said was true

Kobe's 81 >>>>>> Bam's 83

You’re delusional. lol. The Lakers were happy to be in the playoffs after 04-05.

The Raptors were ass & refused to double. To make matters worse they had flat footed older Jalen Rose running around after Kobe.

Kobe had the better game but the circumstances were the same

Jalen Rose was younger than 40yr old Jordan with bad knees on the wizards that shutdown Kobe in a 2nd half. Kobe had 42 in the first half and Jordan picked him up 2nd half to limit Kobe to 12pts.


Jalen could not have been older than 33 when Kobe dropped 81. :childplease:
