    After Golden State beat the Lakers in OT with the help of Gibert Arenas jacking up a career high 60, Kobe Bryant went on record as saying Arenas doesn't have any conscience. He basically stated that Arenas was jacking up all these crazy shots not caring about his teammates in doing so.

    And Kobe wonders why everybody hates him so.

    That is nuts! I can remember watching a Lakers game when Shaq was there and during a timeout you can read Shaq's lips telling Kobe to "Pass the ****ing ball." Kobe is also they guy that threw up 80 points. I guess if he does it, its a remarkable performance. Funny thing about it, Kobe who is considered one of the better defenders in the league was guarding Arenas during that game. So it was Kobe who let him do it, Shut your mouth and figure out watch you did wrong all night instead of crying about it.

    He scored 45 in the game he is questioning Gilbert's team 2nd mentality.

    I think he was saying that Arenas had no conscience, he wasn't meaning that Arenas was being inconsiderate to his teammates. Rather, he was saying that Arenas was making crazy shots.

    Example: "He's unconscience from 3 point range!"

    Same here. Of course, since it's Kobe, everybody will try to turn it around.

    No, this was not the case.

    Dan Patrick brought it up as one of his topics on XM radio today and had a former NBA player speak about it (I think it was Mark Jackson). It was quite clear what Kobe meant.

    Kobe sucks as a person.
