Kobe Might Be Done

At 34 with a torn Achilles...sad to say...I'm not sure he returns.  I can't imagine Kobe adopting a different style of play like Ray Allen or Jason Kidd in his late career.  I can see him continuing to play like he always has with diminished skills and becoming a burden, but I can't see him adapting his game.  I could be wrong.  I certainly think he will try to return.  The Lakers are in a sticky spot with Kobe.  He's become a legend in the minds of his fans and you don't tell a legend to retire.  But for all those folks chanting MVP -- struggling for an 8 seed -- come on.  This is delusion.  LaBron could play with 4 high school players and ease into the playoffs.
