Let me break it down to everyone. Kobe know his time is done and he isn't going to win another championship. Instead the only thing on his mind right now is to surpass Michael Jordan on the most point score. That is it folks and there isn't going to be anyone to stop him. Don't be surprised if he takes 30 more shots the next game because my prediction say he will.
As far as the game goes the defense improved a bit on the pick and roll because the big's are actually forcing the guard to slow down a notch. There were some plays where the defense did break down but It's more about communication.
If the Lakers would've just made their free throws they might have won this game.
