Pitiful effort from howard, but thats to be expected, just glad Kobe had a phenomenal game. Howard was sem=decent on defense atleast. His post game was absolutely disgusting though.
Howard missed a bunch of chippies inside. He was absolutely KEY to our defense. Everytime he went out, the Mavs would go on a run as they got score after score or got boards.
Don't bother..some people only watch one end of the court.

not at all, they called travel on bryant too. and they cry about obvios foul on kobe by mayo. I blame JVG. _________________ “It’s silly. It’s absolutely silly.

Kobe about Dr. Buss.
Not happy with Dwight Howard's effort and attitude today. Kobe needs to be twice the warrior just to compensate for Dwight.
Ive been very critical of Howards attitude and effort this season. Today i thought he brought it tho. The effort was there. He recieved a few bad calls that got him in foul trouble, and on top of that the mavs had 2 guys bear hugging him under the hoop tonight on rebounds. Refs gotta call that (bleep), its embarassing to the game of basketball to watch a shot go up and see your center being straight jacketed by 2 guys under the hoop.
What an unbelievable game by kobe. Some of those jumpers he made...NO ONE else in the NBA could pull shots like those off and make it look as easy as 24 did. (bleep)! _________________ "I don't believe I've played for a super team" - LeBron James (June 2017)

There is a huge luxury tax penalty for having Kobe on the books. That's all Cuban was talking about. He said he has the same thing with Dirk and that he is going to keep him.
I actually agree with you on his intent - still he left himself WIDE open with a Laker game right around the corner. It's like talking about someone else's kids - you just don't toss another team's superstar out as an amnesty example and not expect to get some serious grief.
I think he's smart enough to understand this, perhaps only after he blurted it out on the air though...
props to Kobe for making that assist at the end. I was worried he would take the difficult shot cuz he was hot, which once missed would have deflated the team and we woulda lost. But the trust in the teammates spread the energy and kept us going.
Great D by MWP at the end.
Good job on Howard making some clutch free-throws.

Yeah the whole game changes when Dwight is in there.

well, to be honest
metta committed a clear faul on nowitski but i dont think refs affected the final outcome of the game
kobe just took over the game.
It was 08 kobe right there
just keep it up kobe _________________ Unceasing change turns the wheel of life, and so reality is shown in all its many forms. Dwell peacefully as change itself liberates all suffering sentient beings and brings them great joy.

Stop with this (bleep). Without Dwight we did not stand a CHANCE. He was phenomenal on D today. Absolutely amazing. Altered shots, blocked shots, rebounded, he was wonderful. Every time he went out of the game, we had the ball driven down our throats. His screening was hella good today also. Overall a great game by Dwight even though the box score doesn't show it.
Yea thats obvious.
As I said, his defense was decent. Thats all hes gonna get. I will say the rebound he had in he first quarter, one where he had no business getting, was what I expect out of him. That was a nice effort.
