but as a citizen of Kyriestan (which borders Kobestan) I'm gonna need him to be less "Kobe", particularly in the 4th quarter, particularly when Kevin Love is healthy and doing well. We know he can go into Kobe Mode and win, but that's just not sustainable.

Same goes for Dion when he's handling the ball.

Getting Kevin Love involved more during this stretch where LeBron is out is key to making this stretch suck less. A little of that and he did pretty well.

Dallas is coming up soon, and I expect a blowout.
