I just can't believe nobody has a new post about Kobe not making 50 points tonight! I swear, when he did it, one would pop up EVERYTIME and be the same exact thread with the same exact posts as the other ones! I will say Kobe's team did win tonight and they did during the streak but it is still a bit overrated just due to the fact that the teams they played suck and they barely won each game. I know Kobe is a very good player but scoring a lot in five straight games doesn't make him the best ever. His team is going to get dropped in the playoffs (if they make it since there is a chance they won't) because Kobe can't score like that consistently against the playoff caliber teams (I'm talking four games in a row against the likes of San Antonio, Mavs, Suns, Jazz, etc). So I have said it before and I will say it again, Kobe will not win MVP because he isn't the MVP. He is a very good SOLO player but he doesn't do what an MVP does which is make his teammates better. You can say he does make his team better but that hasn't amounted to much because he doesn't play like this all the time. If he has an off game (which he actually does) he doesn't help his team out at all because he will keep firing bricks and not get his team into it and let them help out. Dirk or Nash will get the MVP and the Lakers will lose in the 1st or MAYBE the 2nd round and that's that.nickdastick

[QUOTE="SilverArmor82"]Carr will end up just like Drew Bledsoe. wallymartin

Bldesoe's legacy will probably be that he was one of the better QBs to not make the HoF. Use a better analogy if you intend on degrading Carr.

But as for the topic at hand, i guess the Lions wouldn't be an absolutely horrble team for him, especially if they take the opportunity to nab Thomas. That wouldn't be my first choice for him though.

[QUOTE="SilverArmor82"][QUOTE="dallas_cowboys3"][QUOTE="SilverArmor82"]It was inevitable that Carr would be gone from the Texans. If it were not for him the Texans could have easily gone 9-7, despite their incomplete team. Schaub is just basically more of a leader by example than Carr and Jake Plummer highly recommended Schaub to Kubiak and Schaub even knows the offense that Kubiak runs very well.dallas_cowboys3

[QUOTE="LiL_PiNo"]What do you all say? I really think hes gonna go for another 50+ I'm gonna have to say hes getting 53. What you all think?den4sir

I really don't like Kobe, but if he wants emulate Jordan as much as he has tried, he's got to win champioships. If Kobe wants any notariety in all of his accomplishments, he needs to win championships on his own accord. As far as many fans are concerned, the 3 championships he has has won have been forgotten. Everyone has remembered Jordan and all of his championships and I think Kobe needs to have the same impact if one really wants to remember him as a champion. Kobe needs to antagonize players, coaches, and teams to go after him just like when teams went after Jordan and the bulls.

I'm not saying I havn't been impressed with Kobe's scoring performance of late, but I'd like to see him score 50+ against a team like Detroit or San Antonio (the better defensive teams in the league imo).Ngamer05
