^yeah that's true unfortunatelly. However, there are still some guys in this league with the right mind set (KD, seemingly Davis, Curry, Westbrook just to name a few from the star level). If Kobe prevents us from getting the remaining ones, I can live with that. Actually, thank you Kob, let them have as much fun as they want elsewhere. As for the notion of Kobe shooting too much and struggling to find balance. Yeah, that's his weakness, always has been. But there are no players without flaws. Besides, it's not like he usually shoots too much. With the exception of the Pistons finals, I was always perfectly fine with the way he played in the periods of time when we actually had a good team.
Dude #1: Played with four teams in eight seasons. Zero rings. Dude #2: Played with one team in nineteen seasons. Five rings. Someone's doing something right.
