Kobe passed the ball to a teammate -- he didn't do much of that in 2006.
Is there really reason for a charge call here, or is this a matter of the NBA officials trying to give an advantage to the exciting play? Yes, Nocioni was standing in the "no charge" semi-circle, but he did not move, consequently, I'd call this a no-call more than anything else.
Watching Kwame in action also led me to ask the question: Is Kwame Brown the least talented #1 Draft Pick in NBA history? Take note, I'm not asking if he is the most disappointing (before you jump in and blurt Greg Oden'...
