He used to thow it down like until the end of the 03 season. Now it seems to me settles for layups instead. I mean I know he just had surgery but even before that. Anyway Kobe is sweet

I see him dunk day and night. But you have a point. Now he usually lays it up!

Ok, Kobe does dunk, just not as often as he is still recovering from his knee surgery. He is also becoming more wise with shots he can make, and doesn't need to dunk as often.How in the world is he getting old? He is going to become the league scorer eventually. He started out with like 20.1 ppg because of his injury, but look at his stats for the past 3 games. It is an unbelievable 49 ppg. He is a better player this year, I think. He is assisting more (about 5 apg, most of which are amazing assists), scoring about the same, and about the same amount of rebounds. Besides, a lot of the shots executes in the paint when he is triple-teamed can't be imagined by almost all the NBA players. Come on. He dunked over Yao (twice), so give him a break. The only way Bryant can be stopped is if streetballers suddenly start becoming interested in playing for the NBA. Then, they would stop him. Otherwise, no, the Kobe won't be stopped.

Yeah he isnt dunking as when he was younger. Maybe he wants to make spectacular or impossible layups. The best dunk in my opinion that happened not too long ago was the one on Steve Nash in the playoffs.

If you've never seen Kobe dunk, then your missing out. But anyway, I agree he doesn't dunk as much as he used to, I'm not sure if it's because of the surgery, or age or what.

He can still throw it down and dunk. I was watching their last game and he dunked. But it's true he doesn't dunk as often. This is usually true as players age because they figure out that dunks aren't always necessary and that it takes a toll on your body. But when the game gets emotional, Kobe can still throw it down.

Kobe can still dunk, but only when he feels he want to. HE is getting old and he knows that lay-ups use less energy than dunks (because you jump less) and dunks are not very necessary in a game.

Kob is good. He's prolly tryin to stop being so spectacular, and save his legs for the finish.
