he's got food poisoning.... and you-know-who was famous for perform especially well in the playoffs under adverse conditions (flu, food poisoning... etc)...

EDIT: wait... uh... i don't think that was a complete thought. anyway what i'm getting at is Kobe will draw even more comparision w/ MJ if (when) he plays great tonight, even though he is sick.

I hope Kobe is OK. Why do NBA players get food poisoning so often? Where are these guys eating that they are getting sick so much? I've been eating out for my whole life, and I don't make a fraction of what these guys make, and I've yet to get food poisoning. Then again, I'm not a Laker player playing a game in Sacramento with their mental fans. Someone probably slipped something in Kobe's food.

What does that have to do with Kobe having food poisoning?

I do. Especially since Shaq has the best shooting percentage on the team (and league if I'm not mistaken).

I could care less how many Kobe scores as long as the team wins. In fact, I'd rather see him score 25 and get others involved.

i hope Kings win tonight's game tho i am a Lakers fan

No you are not.

I hope the lakers punk the queens in 4. Judging by the way they played Saturday, that is entirely possible. They're finally hitting their stride, and they're already in the Conference finals.

Kobe should eat with Shaq. By the size of his waist, Shaq has eaten plenty the last year without any poisining. By the way, Kobe had a cheeseburger and a slice of cheesecake from room service. I don't think he'll play tonight.

becuz blazingsaddles said kobe was gonna score 40 points. kobe already takes more shots that shaq... so i wonder how many shots he's gonna take tonite to get 40. and the more shots kobe takes... the less shaq takes... which sorta takes him outta the game.

Why in the hell would you want the Kings to win tonight if you are a Laker fan? The Lakers have the opportunity to put this series damn near out of reach with a win tonight, and I hope that's what they do.

No thanks, I'll take the Lakers win. 15-1 last year was fine by me.

C'mon, admit it. You wanna see Kobe make a game winning shot (ala Jordan) in Game 7 of the NBA finals with no time left on the clock. :D
