NBA Playoffs Thread

I already answered: Nash should take the heat, yes.

I'm not knocking Kobe for not rebounding. I'm pointing out that it's about team, and that LAL won despite shooting 6% points lower. It's not just about scoring.

 

I wasn't asking that. What I'm asking is if he'll get the heat.

 

I LOVE the fun with quote function.
And, you're absolutely right ...

 

He will get some heat, yes. But he had 13 assists and only 5 TO's, so that will take some of it off. The interior guys will get more heat (you can't let Kwame get 19)

 

Only 4 - four! - Rockets scored tonight. No wonder they lost by 10+.

 

Only 5 TOs?
Be real Rok. I guarantee you Nash will not get a single pint of blame for this. Kobe got all this blame for the past 2 games. You would think the 2 time MVP would get at least "some" blame if not, all. After all, he is the MVP. Everything runs through him.

 

But I absolutely love those jerseys. No way, they ought to wear them as much as possible.

Oh, and Chuck, the reason Nash won't get the same heat for a loss as Kobe is because the Suns wins and lose as a team, while the Lakers live and die with Kobe. Two teams built very differently.

 

I hope he gets a ton of heat. He should. He should have scored more.

 

How in the hell does that make Nash more of an MVP than Kobe?
You just said it yourself.
The Suns live and die with their team
The Lakers live and die with Kobe

I swear, I feel like the caveman from the geico commercial. Am I the only guy seeing this?

 

I'm not debating MVPs here, Chuck. I'm simply telling you why Nash won't draw the same heat as Kobe in a loss.

 

By what you just said, shouldn't the MVP be Kobe?

 

Must everything be about Kobe?
