Depends on how well his teammates are playing, if they're sucking he'll shoot like shit and blame the finger because his back ain't strong enough to carry them. If they're playing well he'll score 30-35 and say how well his finger felt.

Like I said, if the rest of the team is playing well then he'll play well too. If not, he'll play like shit, blame it on the finger and call out his teammates...

I say Kobe goes for 25.

I did like that after the loss Kobe called out his team for playing soft......He said that being a physical team is not in their DNA. Kobe is a leader and he is going to light a fire under their ass.

Agreed Kobe is a great, great player. How come when they lose its always the rest of the team is soft? The rest of the team missed FT's, didnt rebound well? A leader doesnt continuesly throw his teammates under the bus!! Accept that maybe YOU (Kobe) took 31 shots to get 31 points.

The way he said it, he was including himself. I probably just didn't quote it right.

Depends if D'Antoni thinks it is a good idea to let Kobe shoot himself out...

Kobe should be lighting a fire under his own ass for taking 31 shots and only scoring 31 points.. Maybe if he actually gave confidence in his teammates, they'd be a little more confident themselves..

You might have a point if Kobe didn't lead the same bunch to a Championship last year. The supporting cast hasn't played well all year and they still have the best record. It has nothing to do with Kobe showing or not showing confidence in them. He said it last night that the players do not have the hunger they had last year which is typical once a team wins it all. Thats why it is very tough to win it back to back. The good news is there are still 5 months from the Playoffs starting. I have no worries when you have Kobe on your team.

By dropping you mean points or shot attempts?

If it's the former, probaby like 20, if its the latter, something like 40.
