Nice to see Vanessa back there...for the sake of their two beautiful little girls, I hope Kobe and Vanessa can work through their problems. Both (especially Vanessa) are young, and maybe they just need to have a little maturity to realise that nobody's perfect.
Yes, hope the couple works things out for their own good.

Good win, but there's no doubt it wasn't anything close to perfect.
SOmething inside of me knew that we weren't going to hold onto that 16 point lead.
Kobe looked Gased.
Pau and Andrew played BIG as they are supposed to do.
Steve was straight on FIRE! An those comparisons to Kerr or Paxson might be a bit off, but he came up huge tonight.
An for all the MWP haters, it's fair to say his impact was HUGE !!!
Gallo , Miller , Brewer and Afflalo were nothing of their usual selves with the pressure METTA applied on them.
His defense and intensity was definitely something we have been missing these past 7 games. _________________ "Tryin' to get that Kobe number, One Over Jordan"

IMO Kenny and Charles are right about Andrew
I just disagree that be categorically wont get better. I understand most guys don't improve much after 7 years, but that's a talent thing. A good coach could reach bynum, and if he figures it out with the attitude, look out. One thing drew has always done has been to slowly not surely figure it out. _________________ “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim.

I don't know about franchise player or best center in the league, but a team can always find good use with the amount of talent that Bynum has. Maybe he would thrive better on a team with a stacked backcourt as the 4th option. I gotta side with Ernie that he'll stop acting like an idiot as time goes on.

We would not have won this one with out Metta. Kobe's not 100%. He had no energy. I liked the fact he didn't force it. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Too bad, great coach but never had the roster to win a championship.
Karl has always been a gimmick dependent regular season coach who has nothing when if matters. His guys always compete, bit don't confuse oitcpaching brown with greatness. Usually karl gets outcoached in the playoffs. _________________ “We must always take sides. Neutrality helps the oppressor, never the victim.

Blake always saves his Steve Black mode for the big moments.

Yeah, I also think it matter how those 7 years played out. Bynum's missed a lot of time with injuries and until this season, he really never got much of an opportunity to play important minutes down the stretch, as that was a time Phil preferred going to Odom. I don't necessarily disagree with the sentiment that a player is who he is after 7 seasons, but I feel Bynum's development has been a special case. This is the 1st season he's really being asked to play those big minutes, and I'd like to think he'll continue to improve as he gets used to that role.
Such a hard fought game. Nobody should ever downplay how amazing the Nuggets did.
However, I'm noticing a trend now after Lebron punk'd out. Most of the other team's players don't stick around to congratulate the other team anymore. Ty Lawson and George Karl both stayed down from what it looked like, but everybody else made a B-line for the locker room.
Harrington did too. Even gave penny Marshall a kiss.
