As you are probably aware, Kobe Bryant suffered a torn achilles. Instead of helping his teammates on the court against the San Antonio Spurs, he is forced to watch the game from his presumably comfortable couch at home. That is when Bryant puts on his “Coach Kobe” hat and turns to Twitter to share his knowledge, drop a few rants and answer fan questions as they pertain to the game. Below you can find all of Kobe’s tweets that he sent during the Lakers-Spurs game, in chronological order. Keep ’em coming Kobe! #MambaTweets
I like how Nash is moving so far. Both teams a lil out of rhythm to start

Gotta get to the block. See wat spurs r gonna do with pau and d12

Gotta keep the spurs offense in front of our d. They r great at penetrating and pitching to their shooters

@bkbb24 rhythm of the game. When it doesn't flow inside because of what the d allows we have to force the issue

@TheMontelShow spurs ability to change sides of the floor andget penetration is hurting us.have to pick up pressure,make them uncomfortable

@nbarocksstc I agree. Lethargic start for us. Gotta minimize little mistakes like giving up the middle drive on close outs

@AlexLeeSays I can't travel yet. Altitude pressure causes swelling. Have to keep it elevated as much as possible
— Kobe Bryant (@kobebryant) April 21, 2013
@LakerGangOrDie_ lot of correctable things. Lil strategic adjustments we can make Spurs hurt us with quiet 5-0/6-0 runs that kept us at bay

@JoshuaBass91 get on block and make the game easier for ur guys Defensive transition on the bigs so we don't give up 3's to their guards
— Kobe Bryant (@kobebryant) April 21, 2013
Matador Defense on Parker. His penetration is hurting us
— Kobe Bryant (@kobebryant) April 21, 2013
Nothing worse then watching your bothers struggle and u can't do crap about it #realtalk
— Kobe Bryant (@kobebryant) April 21, 2013
@RoCountsOnKobe 100%that's the key. Making adjustments. Chess not checkers

@PhilJackson11 I gotta do something. It's horrible not being able to at least be there with them.
