When Sports Center asked Shaq if he thought Kobe was sending a message with his 62 on Tuesday night against the Mavs.......
Shaq quipped back while sarcastically smacking his chewing gum......"I don't have a fax machine, so I didn't get the message." :mj07:
I think you have to throw in the fact that 25 of those points were from the charity strip. Not to say it wasn't an outstanding performance by Kobe......but his 30 point 3rd was ridiculously filled with Technical Shots and Free Throws.
It appeared to me that the Mavs idea of a "Kobe Stopper" was to rough him up 2H.......which they willingly went about doing after Kobe smacked Dirk and gave him a shiner. No call against Kobe on the play either! :scared
However, Shaq......gotta love him! ez
