You have to dribble before taking a step.

My bad.
Billips took too many steps in his drive. He could take two and together to shoot (which is like three). But he took three and together (which is four). He pretty much did a half circle around his defender without dribbling.

Gotta be kidding on the Kobe one
Most of those guys weren’t good shooters that year. Not to mention horrible decision makers.
Davis for shame
On the kobe one
look at the time, the game was ending….so…yea kobe should take the shot cuz he is the best closer in the game…
On Behalf of Sue, Wjb, majoyenrac, Bullshooter and all the other Hinrich fans...Ill keep the Hinrich Hope coming...There will be light!

Yeah I think some people get carried away with some of the labels put on players
I remember the first time Kobe was without Shaq he was looking for his teammates and trusting them. That went no where and they were losing big he had to score in bunchs. (that year he got injured though)
It still was a stupid shot concidering how far out he was
and how many guys were on him and not on his teammates. If he was three steps closer to the basket I’d say go for it, but Kobe was way too far out and too defended. He kept the ball too long to pass it off but he didn’t gain a good position to shoot from for all of that ball handling he was doing. Not a smart shot if he had pre-decided he was going to take the last one. The defense did a great job of keeping him away from where he wanted to go.

But their down by 3
Though Odom had hit a tying three that I think that year or the year before where I remember Kobe passing it to him. But I think theres been plenty of players that have done it people try to magnify it in Kobes case. 5 seconds left with a hand in his face I think I’ve seen Kobe come through more than even Odom wide open.
Kobe basically had to score to have the team survive anyway. People could see that his team came up short in that series vs the Suns too while he was giving probably his best effort to trust his teammates.
Anyway I know Odom was at the top right there but we’ve seen Kobe nail that plenty of times.
Love the DWade one
Just a sample of what he gets gamely
"Whenever Kirk/Ben are in together. Kirk turns into a crappy player, because he tries to freeze Gordon out of the offense." - Andrew7
Won him a championship
Still can’t believe that whole series. That might have been the worst officiating of a playoff series, much less the Finals, that I have ever seen in my life.
and yet hollinger rates his performance #1 in his all time finals rankings.
"They should. They better. I'm Vinny Del Negro!"
So D-Wade is better than the SG who played in 6 finals and won Finals MVP 6 times?
Not a chance in Hell!
Maybe we can (but probably not)?

Watching the Sixer game last night
made me think the NBA is in serious decline. Where the refs should play a bigger role they go to sleep. To make up for it they end up whistling all kinds of awful plays.
Sometimes it’s not a foul. It’s just really pathetic basketball.
12/31: Fire Vinny Del Negro.
Yeah
thats the biggest disappointment for me. I don’t think that the flopping and slight contact should be in the game. It takes away from the game.
If someone gets fouled then they get fouled because they deserve a bucket for working hard and beating the defense. Now its not exactly the case.
This made my day
..on 2/18/09, Noc was gone..and on the next day, Larry "The Chucker" was just a bad dream...
i hate bowen
and that pretty much exemplifies why… not the first time he kicked a dude in the face.
"They should. They better. I'm Vinny Del Negro!"
Yeah even Brent Barry admitted hes dirty
I kind of hate that some say he isn’t “at all” because he pretty much set the standard for dirty play for a good number of years.
That last shot of Harris has a HUGE caveat:
he was in England at the time, and they told him that a guy with mental retardation wanted to 1v1 him. Being the cool guy that he is, he accepted. What do you think he honestly had going on in his head right before the match? I’m going to show this retard not to mess with the Harris?
Needless to say, though, he was surprised.
Yeah I remember that too
Everyone wants to forget that part though and almost no one reported on it. I think they threw it in on a blog somewhere.
“….oh yeah and someone told Devin the guy was mentally unstable before the game”
someone explain channing frye?
was it just to show how bad issah was? what hell was he thinking?
The only monster here is the gambling monster that has enslaved your mother! I call him Gamblor, and it's time to snatch your mother from his neon claws!!
