Blown leads

[Ryan W]

Kobe is the best player in the league, hands down. 
And the difference between Lebron (2nd best player in
the league) and Kobe is staggering.  It's not even
close.  

But we still have a chance against LA (if we get past
Detroit): because we play better defense than they do.
 And if we can do that in the games, then we'll have a
chance.  But Kobe will tough, no doubt.
