    Good heart by the Bobcats in a painful loss. Terrible OT execution. Baby Dirk/Kemba with a career high though.

      I know it's a lost in the W/L..but I give that a win..at this point I'm looking at progress and not results..I like what I saw out there tonight from the boys..

      We need a backup Point..Crawford is not a PG FLIP....have no idea why Mack wasn't in the game.

          My man Kobe says get off his sack about his shooting:

          PORTLAND, Ore. -- Earlier this week, we noted that Los Angeles Lakers All-Star guard Kobe Bryant was sticking to his guns when it comes to his shot volume. One of the NBA's all-time most prolific shooters, Bryant told reporters then that his wrist injury, the rise of center Andrew Bynum and a new Lakers offense won't slow down his shooting whatsoever.

          Nevertheless, questions have continued to swirl about what is the right number of shots for Bryant to take. Once again, he is leading the NBA with 22.5 per game through eight games. Next on the list: Golden State Warriors guard Monta Ellis with 20.8.

          Prior to a nationally-televised Thursday night game against the Portland Trail Blazers, Bryant pointed to his past to explain why he should keep hucking, calling out his critics in the process.
          "Look, I've played 15 years. I've won world championships. I've done all these things. And people still want to talk about this stupid-a** [stuff]? I'm a scorer first ... I'll try to make the good play, the good pass, kick it out when my teammates are open, but I'm a scorer first. I may shoot 27 times. I may shoot 20 times. Nobody complains when I shoot 10 times. You don't hear ME complaining when I shoot 10 times. It just depends on the game, you know?"

          Yes, but Kobe, according to ESPN research, you have the highest "usage rate" -- that's the number of possessions a player uses per 40 minutes -- in the NBA. In fact, your usage rate (38.9) would be the highest in the 3-point era of NBA--

          --"Yeah," he says. "And I also have five rings."
          Despite some dogged defending from the Blazers, Bryant scored 30 points on 13-for-24 shooting. It marked the second straight night he went over 30 points in scoring and it was just the second time this season he hit more than 50 percent of his field goal attempts.

          After the game, Bryant shifted from defending himself to attack mode on his shot selection critics.

          "Get over it," a clearly annoyed Bryant told reporters after a loss to the Trail Blazers in Portland. "Get over it. I shoot the ball that's what I do. I'm a shooting guard. Some nights I have 24 shots some nights I have 29 shots. Get over it."

          Bryant is shooting 43.3 percent on the season, his lowest mark since 2004-2005.

                    I guess it doesn't really matter since the two threads are kinda intertwined. But it probably would have been better off in the NBA off topic and not actual game discussion thread no?

                    Don't take that as a knock from me hehe, I'm just suggesting is all.

                    Screw it, what do I know lol.
