Default Kobe should get blamed for losing the Championship

What is Kobe doing, I really expected a big performance out of him. Hes not even getting touches. He drove the lane with about 2:00 left in the 2nd, had a open shot and what does he do in mid-air? He passes it again and again. He jump passes way more than actuallt shooting the ball. He makes circus shots, why is he giving it up at the last second so much just so that sasha or fisher can miss the shot. He is also making bad passes on these jump passes, resulting in turnovers alot... There is something fishy about the way Kobe has played this entire series.

Halftime Im going over 95

how about giving credit to that dominating defense. Kobes a crybaby as is phil and the other weak ass soft euros they call the starting 5. Can't blame Kobe for playing against 3 weakass teams in the playoffs. He's never seen this kinda defense

That pretty much is the truth right there. Kobe should change his name to ? because thats what he has been doing. So many times during this series, Kobe has started to penetrate and looks like he has a good angle to bank it off the glass and he kicks it out. I mean it is a real question mark. I know Kobe is the best player, but the Celtics have proved they are by far the best team in the NBA. The Lakers look like a I-AA college team that hasnt practiced going against a team of NBA all stars.

Theres no chemistry at all, horrible ball movement, poor shot selection and on top of it all, NO ONE WANTS TO SHOOT. Everyone is afraid to take a shot, its pathetic.

I cant belive the Lakers are going to lose by 30+ points. Wow what a total collapse.

No way anyone can compare Jordan and Kobe. Jordan would not piss down his leg like Kobe has done in the last 2 games. 2 games in a row he starts off hot and then just lays back. I know the defense was good, but when Jordan was on an army could not stop him. I am sick of hearing this comparison.

Kobe is either loved or hated. He will get criticized no matter what. Who said he was trying to be like Jordan? Did he ever compare himself to Jordan personally? Kobe is the closest thing you will ever see play that pales in comparison to Jordan. I expected the hating to come out if they lost, and they did. Now everyone will start talking about Kobe being overrated, Kobe being nothing without Shaq, and so on. Maybe it's good the Lakers lost because you know that this summer, Kobe will work even harder to shut all you ignorant people up.

It's not Kobe's fault that the Celtics are a much better team.

I thought basketball was a team game. Why blame it on one guy?

Kobe will always be criticized no matter.
