The 2006-07 Los Angeles Lakers thread

[ArizonaSportsFan]

By the way, on Mike & Mike this morning (ESPN Radio) they were mentioning that Kobe was due another suspension for a hit to Jaric similar to his hit on Manu. To those who saw it, any truth to that?

Chin up Lakers fans. At least it was just another elbow incident versus another one of these with a hotel employee.

No they can not. They are swimming with the catfish right now. I think Phil Jackson might kablewey if one more person gets hurt, suspended or ejected from a game.

I predict the Lakers get knocked out of the 1st round of the tournament today.

0/5

Kobe scored 65 against Portland. All of them needed to get the OT win.

Shot 59% (67% from three).

While tremendously impressive, it sucks that they needed that effort to beat freaking Portland, in OT.

 

[D-Dogg]

Kobe drops 50, Lakers beat the Twolves. Two games, 115 points.

 

[D-Dogg]

Kobe is just freaking amazing. Unreal. :notworthy

60 vs. grizz.

 

[abomb]

First player since Jordan in 1987 to score 50+ in three straight.

Jordan had 164 during that stretch, including his career-high 61 point contest.
Kobe has 170 during his stretch.

The record is 7 by Wilt.

This MUST mean Kobe is as good as MJ was.



NOT.

Kobe taking advantage of teams like a young white chick in Eagle Colorado!!

Here's an interesting little stat abomb found.

In 1987 the league scoring average was league average was 109.9 per game. Last year, 97 points.

What does that say? Not a lot, but it sure makes it difficult to compare eras.

I'll say this, there isn't anyone remotely close to Jordan other than Kobe. (But I don't think Jordan is the GOAT, either.) And Kobe's only my 3rd favorite Laker of all time.

Kobe taking advantage of teams like a young white chick in Eagle Colorado!!

Or like Kevin Johnson on a 16 year old.

Or Walter Davis on a pile of cocaine.

Or Walter Davis on a pile of cocaine.

Or like Frank Johnson on any man's wife.

 

[D-Dogg]

Or like Kareem on a joint.

Or James Worthy on a hooker.

Or Magic Johnson on any given groupie.

(to give equal time)

 

[D-Dogg]

Or Jason on Joumana.

 

[TJ]

Or like Mychael Thompson on Byron Scott

 

[TJ]

Or Boris Diaw on a freshly baked croissant (this can go on forever)

 

[Gee!]

(But I don't think Jordan is the GOAT, either.)

Ok Im interested.. Who do you think is then?

It is either Magic Johnson or Oscar Robertson, depending upon the day and my mood.

 

[D-Dogg]

Or AC Green on Virginity.

Or Kurt Rambis at a stupid glasses store.
