Kobe is back!

Kobe hit another game winner last night against the Grizzlies. I was very pleased with his performance. His shooting was tremendous and he was very controlled in his game. More importantly, he was very clutch at the end of the game. He basically won the game for them. Once again, the Lakers prob didn't have any business winning the game after the Grizzlies fought back and regained the game. However, they left the door open and Kobe took it and closed it shut on the Grizzlies. Kobe was Kobe. His ankle looked good to me on three nice dunks I saw he had in the game.

Another side note is the comparisons to Lebron. Lebron is great, in fact, spectacular. I just want to stay numbers and stats don't tell everything. I believe I've mentioned this before. I look at Lebron's stats. Honestly, his career stats in my mind blow away Kobe's. Lebron is as close to a triple double average you can probably get to in the current age. His numbers are what I like to do in a video game. Good amount of rebounds, assists, scores a lot of points. On top of that he gets to the line 10 times a game, shoots %50% from the field, and shoots decent from 3. He does it all and has it all. However, this is where watching and just knowing the game makes the distinction. If you went by the numbers, you probably would just say Lebron > Kobe easily. Most experts of the game, however, would probably still say Kobe is the best. Its just a matter of watching and seeing what he does. Its not all about the numbers. If you watched last night's game, you'll know what I mean.
