    And yet some still think he’s overrated.
    These stats don’t lie.

    That's some elite company.

    Does he ever take the headband off after these kind of games?

    And his golfing buddy

    I’m sure they will still match up when both are in town for a game

    LOVE THAT!! So understated yet clearly makes his point to take a shot at the critics and people that short sell how good he really is.

    i love reaves so much, and i love this little edit--especially where he pauses it when reaves gets a full step on guys from the dead start.

    stop being surprised. send a second defender in the clutch or deal with the consequences.

    It’s the jukes and sudden changes in acceleration to go with the way his footwork and body set up the impact of his crossovers and other high level moves. It’s why Halliburton called AR sneaky athletic during the World Cup.

    Thought Kobe would be in that group, but his best game for assists was Jan 15, 2015, in a loss to Lebron and the Cavs.

    Mamba-man: 19/6/17

    Lakers starters for that game:
    Wesley Johnson
    Kobe
    Jordan Hill
    Ed Davis
    Ronnie Price

    My gawd those were some Bad Old Days for us. At least we had Kobe.

    One thing I noticed is that when sharing the court with 2 of Gabe, Max, Cam or DFS, he is our worst perimeter defender. Which is really awesome. And he should have plenty of minutes with 2 of them. And at least 1 at all times, meaning he's guaranteed to never be the POA ever again, which is pinch perfect.
    That's a huge improvement on defense and on offense because it protects AR and he has more energy to make an impact on offense.
    I think we are about to unlock the best AR we have seen with this move

    I am guessing he is all by himself after tonight. AR needs help. AD and Bron won't cut it.
