            He had one block and 3 steals...that's pretty good D.

            But you are right about him not passing the ball a lot...well maybe. He had one asssist but I didn't get to watch the whole game...I was paying more attention to Dallas/Sacramento...did he pass the ball a lot and his teammates weren't hitting or did he just not pass enough?

                To me it looked as though he could have passed it many times to a wide open player either on the baseline for an easy layup or at the free throw throw line for a jumper/drive.

                    That stat is pretty misleading. It doesn't show him getting burnt by Chauncey Billups or Rip or Tayshaun, as he did several times. The thing that was killing me between him and Fox is that a couple times after they missed shots, they hung back to complain to the ref as everyone else heads the other way. Once, Fox just sat there on the ground in protest while there was a 5 on 4 on the other end. Shaq was getting a little frusterated with them... he was staring a couple of them down.

                    I don't question Kobe's offensive capability. Clearly he is one of the top 3 in the league. It's his attitude that I don't like.

                        How can anyone say that Kobe is a team player? I'm watching this Lakers/Pistons game, and he constantly has 3 teammates open and chooses to keep it each time.

                        He's a hell of an offensive player, but he doesn't play D. If he did, he'd be one of the best ever. But he's getting beat by Tayshaun Prince! Come on.

                        That's something he needs to improve on and I think he will.

                        T-Mac, who's one year younger than Kobe, has already learned how to be a team player and how to score his points in the flow of the game.

                            His attitude? His attitude about what? You dont like that he's the first one to show up at practices and games, and the last one to leave? That he's constantly looking for ways to improve his game.
