No my friend you're clueless it's ok to be a kobe fan but you still have to be realistic. Reality is Kobe doesn't pass the ball as often as he should.

no the reality is... Kobe is 25th in the league in assists
19 of the guys ahead of him are pg's
4 others are combo guards(wade, iverson, arenas and barbosa)
and the other 2 are T-Mac and LeBron
him and Lamar basically average the same amount 4.8 and 4.7... and Kobe has averaged 5.2apg the last 8 seasons
and for those who say Kobe hurts Lamar as a player and his stats
Lamar: 18.6ppg 9.4rpg 4.3apg the last 10 games
Kobe: 28.5ppg 5.1rpg 4.6apg the last 10 games
Lamar is taking 13.7fga and shooting 47%
Kobe is taking 20.3fga and shooting 47%
you could say that its because its only 10 games but Odom finished the last 30 games last season including the playoffs averagin similair numbers
17.7ppg 9.5rpg 5.9apg 54% on 12.6fga
and Kobe was still getting his numbers in those games as well
34.3ppg 5.4rpg 4.3apg 47% on 26fga
i just gave ya the stats for 40 of the last 45 games odom and kobe have played together
the last 30 games of last season Kobe was taking 26 shots a game and it has dropped down to 20 shots a game this season... yall might point to the injury but i point to more depth
Cook and Vujacic played 17-18mpg last season, Cook missed 1 game and Sasha played in all 82 games... and this season they arent in the rotation really
they drafted Farmar whos taking Sasha's minutes and has started to cut into Smush's minutes as well.... they traded and got Mo Evans for free basically.... they signed Vlad Rad whos been a bust thus far but a lot of it has to do with his injuried shooting hand
Walton and Bynum got better and are playing with a lot more confidence
Kwame's injury was a little setback but hes starting to continue the strong play he finished last season at
Kobe knows for this team to get to the next level, his must continue to look for his team mates and keep their confidence high and it'll keep defenses honest and open the floor up for him to make plays either for himself like the utah game recently or others
