Out of Contexts: Kobe Bryant
Posted 50 days ago at Basketbawful

Kobe vs. MJ
Posted 51 days ago at ballerblogger.com
“This series has shown that Bryant is not Jordan. That should have been understood already. But sometimes we let the mythology of Jordan overshadow the reality. Do you think Jordan never had a Finals performance with numbers like the 27 points...
Finals Scouting Report: Kobe Bryant
Posted 51 days ago at 20 Second Timeout
Throughout this season I have repeatedly asserted that teams could not guard Kobe Bryant the way that the Spurs and Celtics guarded LeBron James in the 2007 and 2008 playoffs respectively because Bryant's outside shot is far superior to James'. James...

Bring it on home to me
Posted 52 days ago at perkisabeast.com Blog
I can’t help but hum this Sam Cooke classic every time I think about the Celtics winning a title. Particularly, this refrain. “It’s been a long, long time coming but I know a change gonna come.” You bet it is Celtics fans...

Not enough Kobe, not enough help for Lakers
Posted 50 days ago at InsideHoops.com's Basketball Blog
The AP reports: Kobe Bryant knew all along the Celtics were going to force someone besides him to beat them, and there was nobody else in purple and gold up for the job. Bryant finished with 22 points, but shot only 7-of-22 from the field and was...

The Celtics in the first quarter: It was like a psychedelic flashback to Game 4, only without the singing pixies and dancing fruit (or was that just me?). Boston started the game out-of-synch both offensively and defensively (and that's putting it...
So, it's back to Beantown then ...

The C's had their chances, as they were able to withstand another strong first-quarter performance by the Lakers (this time the early deficit only reached 19 points), but ultimately could not put this game to bed and wound up on the losing end of a...
