This is exactly why Bron, Wade, etc. are sitting out towards the end of the season.

Um.. they're not fighting for a playoff spot. They have that luxury

 

[mrnothing]

I'll never forgive Mike D'Antoni for single handedly ending Kobe's career. 

 Sportscenter just reported Kobe likely tore his achilles.

Kobe Bryant has a probable torn Achilles, the Lakers say. MRI tomorrow to confirm.

And cause they clinched the #1 seed in the east in February

im not a fan of the lakers, heck, call me a hater, but i respect kobe's gm. hate to see him go out like this. crazy he is going out like achilles, one of the greatest warriors out there.

 

[IATT]

first thing i thought of was him rupturing his achilles. dude just collapsed when he was trying to drive by barnes

That was called a foul on barnes

Torn Achilles. MRI to confirm tomorrow.

|I I knew it was the achilles when he was walking without bending his foot

 

[JD617]

Almost every Lakers fan in my timeline was joking about how bad the officiating was. Not sure why some of you are in denial about it.

Anyway, hope Kobe is able to come back next year if his Achilles is torn.

 

[Deleted member 38182]

All you Laker haters can rejoice, Kobe probably tore his achilles.
I know deep down that makes many of you happy.

Now you don't have to worry about "The Fix."

Good game Warrior fans, i say that whether we win or lose...everytime we play.

Goodnight.

I'm a hater and deep down I'm not really too happy about that. I'd never wish harm or injury to anybody.

Goodnight

I pray this isn't the end of Kobe Bryant's career. I pray.

 

[T0INE]

I don't care if he was wide open, Carl Landry taking the last shot was

I knew by his form it would be a brick

Steph should've isoed on that last play, that screen only brought another defender to create a double team and force him to pass the ball.

 

[illoquent aka dsk]

Wow.

All them minutes played finally caught up. ****** didn't wanna hear it when people said MDA was gonna run him into the ground.

No way he goes out like that but who knows if he'll be the same. **** is crazy.

 

[denni5themenace]

****. its over. kobe knows it. you can tell dude teared up/cried over the news.

 

[xtapolapacetl]

This is far from the first time this happened. The Lakers got all the calls in the recent close games. You have to plan beating them by double digits like the Clippers did last Sunday if you want to beat them. If the game is close, the refs will not let the Lakers lose - guaranteed. This game is probably the most obvious example though.

 

[ohmygosher]

Bum *** warriors are about to mess around and drop to 8th.

 

[JCMojica24]

Welp Kobe confirmed it....

Aren't you the imaginary rings guy?

The officiating was bad. We did get a lot of calls go our way. Many people in our own thread are admitting it...just go read.
They got their share, but ours were definitely more.
It's happened in many non-Laker games as well...so obviously we'll take it.

If they wanted to someone to screen it should have been klay.. And we all know they run that play with them because they did it however many times successfully in he 3rd

I hope you're just as angry with Mitch. Not like MDA has a plethora of options to choose from

Honestly, if that turns out to be what it is, that sucks. I don't like Kobe, but I don't want to see him go out like this. I feel for you Lakers fans.

 

[jumpmanfromdabay]

That was embarrassing



Can't say I'm surprised though.




They needed 50FTs to stay in the 8th seed

Really man?
Unnecessary shots. But whatever makes you feel better.

So he wasn't getting phantom foul calls?



50 FTs is a joke
