And yes Kobe was the best player on the floor, but last I checked the C's have eliminated DWade, The King and Superman all of whom were the "best players on the floor" Kobe is much more dangerous scoring 25, dishing out 8 assists and grabbing 8 boards than he is scoring 38 pts and having his teammates watch.

It's just amusing to me that Boston sports fans (and I'm one myself) think all announcers and refs are against their team if they complement anyone on the other team. Have you read what Laker fans think of the announcers? These guys have has been pretty even handed with their praise of both sides. Again, think back to game 2 and what they were saying about Ray Allen. I think Mark Jackson wanted to give him a back rub at halftime. It goes both ways and fans (especially Boston fans) are gonna get pissed if they praise someone on the other team for playing well.
And I agree with your point about Kobe. I'd rather see this turn into the Celtics team agains the Kobe Bryant one man show. The Fakers have no chance if that happens.
