Did anyone else

see that older asian lady that was talking to kobe in the 4th quarter? She was telling him something and he was listening pretty closely. I must know who she is!

Isn't she the one massaging Kobe's wrist?

Her name is Judy Seto. She's the team physical therapist. She gives him treatment on his wrist while he's on the bench.

I'm not sure

but its possible it was just weird seeing him listen to someone so intently in the middle of the game… she must know what she was talking about

Next time click the reply button. =)

I think it was her that I saw during the Denver game massaging his wrist.

I feel like a total NOOB

Just realized the shortcut buttons (c, shift c, z, r) at the beginning of the comments section…..

duh duh duh

Was so pumped up last night from going to the game

I watched the Bulls and Lakers game on TV afterward. The Bulls’ comeback and Rose’s performance was as beastly as Bynum’s. That was a great game.

I apologize if you get mad by what I say, let me know when you take the stick out of your ass so I can continue commenting.

Two things

Brown likes him with the second unit because he can find his own shot there, no longer competing with Kobe Bryant, Pau Gasol and Andrew Bynum for touches.

1.Whatever Brown is doing with Artest – and removing him from Kobe for the most part – actually is noteworthy. Could it be that the master of psychology, Jackson, got less out of Artest than he could have? As great as the run has been, perhaps we could have had an even better Artest?

2. As strikingly different Bynum has been, especially around the basket – who didn’t love his little catch and back toss hoop – and I have to say Bynum looks amazing, he still looks fragile to me. For instance, while some even are talking like he could be the best center in the league (I don’t think so) we aren’t looking at David Robinson or Akeem out there, exploding off the floor. He does not have. I still cringe when he goes up and then to the ground. Not just because of his history either. It is that he has a certain gangly lower body. I can’t think of a dominant center in the history of the league who moved like him. I say, even if he thrives, or especially if he thrives, trade him for Howard. As much would love to have one of our own blossom, we have to be realistic.

lol – I think you are right.

i think it was mentioned before that it's the angle of his hips (or was it knees) that gives him trouble

otherwise, dwight’s legs are more chicken looking than drew’s

by no stance on Jan 4, 2012 2:17 PM PST up reply actions

his q-angle is off, like the person on the right

wow. That pretty much shows it.

by ________key on Jan 4, 2012 2:32 PM PST up reply actions

I never ever get the feeling that Dwight is going to get hurt when he explodes off the floor. When I look at Bynum hop his 12 inches off the ground I’m still waiting for him to crumble. There is no comparison really.

I missed those posts about his hips. But I guess the point is, whatever the reason he really isn’t a long term investment.
