I agree...I don't even think he plays that great of team D on a night in, night out basis...when he decides to play, he does well...last night is a great example of his weaknesses at the defensive end - how many times did Hamilton or Prince (or whoever Kobe was supposed to be guarding) get easy back-door looks because Kobe wasn't paying attention??? Don't like his D...
IRpalmer and rockyroad - easy, don't lose your cool guys. Rockyroad you are arguing by instance ... "he didn't play good defense the other night" This is specious reasoning; over the course of the entire season, Kobe is a first tean defensive player. In fact, hmmmmmmm..I believe he was voted first team this year.
