I think it's because he is a big baby and doesn't like when people block his shots.

Kobe thinks he is the best and hates when people block his cheap shots. He wants to be mention before Mj and since that is not happening he wants to be like Nash, that's why he changed his number to 24 but still he is not Happy. Remember when Arenas scored 60 on his team, he called him delusional and a fony.Even if he is pretending to make his teammates better he still is the same Kobe that loves to be in the spotlight all the time.

it's not a cheap shot. it's a thing of gravity. i used to play a similar style and can tell you that when you are in the air, the moves you make to move the ball around cause you to be off balance many times.this is why if you notice, he hangs in the air for jumpers and then seems to be coming down running backwards. you have to understand the degree of difficulty in his shots. the art of "buying time in the air" is what i call it. the average person can go up twice trying to block his shot while he is still up there from the original ascent. it's not that he's trying to hurt someone. it's that he's getting his shot off. look how he leans and maneuvers. only the great ones do this i.e. wade, jordan, erving, etc.

He cheap shots people because he does not have good sportsmanship. Sure, he'll help you up and pat you on the back, but as soon as you steal a ball from him or block his shot, he'll do anything to get you back, like he's really angry. He's really 2 faced out there, everybody sees he is a phony.

Actually, he swings his arms up or out towards the defenders the way Reggie Miller kicks his legs out, in order to draw the foul. As a basketball player, it is a "heads up" move because it gives the shooter the possibility of going to the line for free throws, "as" they realize their shot is off or blocked.

He doesn't really do it that often. When he does cheap shop other players it's just the frustration he's feeling when he's defended by a great defender. He wouldn't be the only guard to do that .

Grow up. Just because you dont like a player, doesnt mean you have to hate on them, when they really are great players.

Its because he has never had any class at all and never will have any class. To me, and i am sure many others, he is a complete jerk.
