Not a LeBron supporter but Kobe is taking 30 shots to score 30 points!!! So he needs to say "bye"!

I don't know how anyone can look at Kobe's season thus far and view it as something to brag about.

The season? This was one night. Again...not sure why our fans/mods/etc. are so quick to jump on criticism of Lebron and so cautious to praise Kobe.

Ok, change it to 36, it's still the same thing as far as how far LBJ will have fallen by then.

26.7 on 24 shots. Not even close.

Funny, I don't know how anyone cannot do the same.

It's puzzling to me. It would be so much more brag-worthy if he was scoring 15 a game on good efficiency. Then the argument could be made that he'd be winning if he just had a better team around him. This is not winning basketball that he's playing.

There's no chance of winning with this team anyway. Kobe's going to shoot like he hasn't for 2 seasons. I still enjoy seeing him play.

If he was playing well, I would give him a 100% pass for the teams record because let's face it, these players aren't that good. When some of these games have been winnable and he's playing this way and shooting low percentages, then he is one of the reasons they aren't winning.

Actually James' first Cleveland team was a better fit. They played very good defense, and didn't demand the ball. Gloria James jokes aside, Delonte West was actually a much better fit than Kyrie Irving. West could function adequately as a PG when needed, didn't need the ball to be effective on offense, and was the best post scorer on that Cavs team (a James weakness back then). He was a very good defender. This Cleveland team collectively has more offensive punch but then I don't see them capable of playing defense like those old Cav teams.

Could the Cavs turn it around? Yes, the EC is absolutely anemic this season. Even though they haven't the defensive abilities physically, they could certainly compensate with better intensity and team defense. To get there they will have to listen to Coach Blatt. Supposedly James isn't a Blatt supporter, and if that is true then James is part of the problem.


If James isn't a Blatt supporter, Blatt has zero chance of succeeding there.

You can tell by how they play that they're not listening to him. Stylistically, this team bares no resemblance to his previous teams.




Prescient. I think he's doomed.

The length that some of you otherwise smart individuals go to defend Kobe's play this year is laughable.
