When Kirk Hinrich goes for 22 against Steve Nash...don't you have to consider putting Kobe Bryant on the opposing team's best backcourt player, whether its' a SG or PG?
I mean, what would Rose have done if Hinrich can do that?
Sure, but you have to give your best player a breather, switch it up a little bit so he isnt expending 90 percent of his energy defending.
Kobe had nothing left at the end of the game, he just started chucking high arcing prayers. That isnt the cold blooded killer that I am used to seeing closing out games.
