so Lin is a christian and Kobe just used the Lord's name in vain....WRITING IS ON THE WALL for Kobe to get owned in some way or fashion.
I hope Lin goes off, but f Kobe guards him at any point, that might be difficult. We need Walker to hit some frigin shots! He has been terrible past few games.
Novak has to come in and provide that shooting spark, Chandler has to stay out of foul trouble and Jeffries has to contain Gasol, then we should have a chance.
Good point. Mentioned earlier in this game Kobe is a master of mind games mostly because of his training under Phil Jackson, aka THE master of mind games.
For all we know he has been watching SportsCenter and Lin all week. Yeah they go from Hotel, to practice, to game, to hotel, to practice, to game over and over but you really don't think a guy like Kobe isnt flipping on sportscenter and watching the highlights while he tries to fall asleep?
These guys live and breath basketball. Kobe knows who Jeremy Lin is and he knows he had a big game vs his boy Deron Williams, and against the Jazz, and against the Wiz.
BUT THIS IS HIS MIND GAME! He's already got into all of our heads by making us wonder if he knows about Lin! and hes trying to get into Lin's by making him think...
"I can see how he doesn't know me hes a busy guy"
...
"well is pretty weird he doesnt know me I mean im the hottest thing in sports this week"
...
"How could he not at least heard something though? I mean I'm on sportscenter every 20 minutes?"
...
"He probably has seen me, and he probably said Jesus Christ just to bother me"
...
"Or maybe he just hasnt seen me.."
...
The guy is a ****ing psycological genius
