   I’m probably one of the biggest Kobe and Lakers fan ever, but I respect what this man does. His defense is freaking crazy.

    @meetseth3 yeah but he will be so much rested come playoff time when he wil be needed, he probably will only average 20 min a game.

    @meetseth3 I guess you know more than an entire NBA franchise front office. Too bad the Heat didn’t think of asking you before they made this ill-thought move.. At least we all know now.. thanks

    just thought i’d point out that kobe destroyed battier this series, which the lakers won in 7 games. he averaged 27.4 pts, shot 45% (46% in reg season, so congrats battier knocked 1% off his field goal pct! great defense!), hit 34% threes (35% reg season), and AVERAGED 1.5 turnovers a game (not a lot people), while also dropping 40 on battier in game 2 on 16-27 shooting. so battier may have had a moment or two over 7 games, but overall he got his ass kicked and he couldnt stop kobe from advancin

    I hate Battier, his defense was so good.. was entertaining though to watch Kobe try harder.

    @leedaomillz ok you still haven’t named the teams who are above them in defense(excluding the bulls). If they were ranked 5th please name them sir. If you don’t mind

    people are forgetting this was 2009… He is 33 now people.. He doesn’t have these legs anymore just like how Kobe doesn’t have the legs he had in ’09

    Amazing defender, probably will be the missing piece to the championship team.

    @ryanr20091 they have a few elite defenders, that’s where the comparison to a elite defense ends.
