<p>Kobe drops 60, from a cheeky 50 shots. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Thankfully the Lakers are so hopeless that they don't really care anymore, and let him do whatever he wanted. But somehow they win it.</p>

<p>Man that final quarter was just all adrenalin because he was really huffing and puffing after the 3rd. Still hit some huge shots though </p> -
I know he owns the Hornets which has its own issues (being seen to support another tram and all that) and he doesn't ever stick his neck out for people but I thought if ever he was going to show up for someone it was this game. Michael Jordan could have shown a lot of class to be on the side line. <br><br>

You know what I mean though. It would have been a huge gesture.<br><br>
Kobe doesn't need that validation though.<br><br>

<p>I hear what you are saying Raz, but they never played together or for the same team, so no big deal I reckon. Plus there were enough celebrities there to sink a ship.</p>

It was more that Jordan said he considered Kobe the closest player to himself.<br><br>

<p>Kobe took down twitter with his 60. What a way to go out (bar the traditional win a championship and walk off into the sunset ala Peyton Manning). Hard to believe something could out shine GSW's effort of 73 wins today but Kobe did it.</p>

<p> I am tempted to put some money on OKC, must be great odds.</p>

Yip. But I have an ill informed hunch!</p> -
<p>I just watched a 30 for 30 about Shaq leaving the Orlando Magic. They had a great young team, it is amazing how well the ownership of the team farked the next 10 years of their franchise by losing O'Neal after striking it lucky in the draft two years running</p>

<p>Massive night for Kobe. Sad to see him go, but a bit of me wishes he left a few years ago when he was less injured. I feel like he'll be the sort of player who will stage a comeback in two seasons. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>60 points is huge, though he did take 50 of the Lakers' 85 shots that night so you'd expect he'd probably run up a bit of a tally with that many attempts. Good on him for giving the crowd what they came to see. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>Didn't see any of the games today, but are there any updates on Curry's injury?</p> -

<p>The acquisition of Grant Hill will go down as one of the worst in terms of dollars and output, in NBA recent history</p> -

<p>Injury appears to be nothing much.</p> -
<p>Just watched a recap of the OKC v Mavs game 2 and Adams couldn't get the game winner after the review. He did make a couple of big plays in that 4th quarter though. Series tied 1-1 going to Dallas for the next 2 games.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>That Pistons v Cavs game yesterday was a good one. Pistons blew it I reckon with some poor 4th quarter play by Reggie Jackson. Cavs went really small with Lebron at centre at one stage. That took Drummond out of the game. </p> -
