See Kobe: Sharing is Good

A slightly new approach have given the Lakers new life

The new strategy seems to be one that hasn't been done before on the team: Kobe passing the ball. Over the last three games, Kobe Bryant has scored just 49 points but has 39 assists. This last game, Kobe had 14 points and 11 assists as the Lakers beat the Hornets 111-106. These last three games have been wins for the Lakers in which the 2nd one was a win against the OKC Thunder by 9. Lakers have a 3 game winning streak but are still 5 games under .500 at 20-25.

It loos like Kobe being "Team Friendly" is best for the team right now. Before this winning streak, Kobe was attempting over 20 shots a game for four games in a row and they lost all four. Kobe gets a bunch of assists and doesn't shoot more than 15 shots a game and they win three in a row. Now this might not get the Lakers in title discussion again but it certainly does get them back in the postseason talk.

P.S. Congrats Kobe on finally PASSING the ball.
