Kobe: "MF'ers Want To See Us In The First Round"

[Koolaid_Man]

What is the Lakers identity heading into the playoffs?

Bryant: Underdogs. That's what it feels like because we have been playing so inconsistently. You start hearing the rumblings and the chirping about us being beatable and teams wanting to see us in the first round and things like that. You start hearing those things and it kind of puts you into that mindset.

Good I like the underdog role,LakeShow hasn't had that label in a while. Let's do it

[DPG21920]

Yeah, people like Pop saying on a scale of 1-10 they want LA a -5 is really painting LA as an underdog :rolleyes.

Kobe just trying to hype himself up. Not a good sign.

Only in Kobe's delusional world the lakers are underdogs lol. No expert has picked the thunder to win this series so I don't know how he can feel the lakers are underdogs. I think its more of personal vendetta he has to show everybody that he is better then Durant moreso then being an underdog.

[TheMACHINE]

Durant can be better then James...noone in LA gives a fuck. All about titles.

I'm sure thats the case but its hard for me to believe that Kobe's ego can take a backseat to people saying that Durant has already passed Kobe.

[MiamiHeat]

doesn't matter how motivated Kobe wants to be

his body is done. he's finished. his knees are giving out, he's breaking down.

As long as the Lakers beat the Thunder, its all good. You must be thinking of 2006 Kobe.

last time they had that label, they were getting skull-fucked by Paul Pierce and the Celtics in the finals.

Lakers were actually favored in the 2008 finals. Go figure. Nice try though.

[Quit Hatin']

last time the mavs were favored to win it all they got ass fucked by the warriors.

[Ghazi]

10/10 ESPN analysts picked Lakers to beat OKC, underdogs? pfft

they can use the underdog card against Cleveland I guess.

They'll still be favored in every possible series leading up to the Finals.

[pad300]

If he can delude himself and his team into trying harder, good for him....

[Killakobe81]

Many experts are picking mavs and suns over Lakers ...undertsnadable considering our injuries and recent poor play ...

[ChrisRichards]

I got it from kissing your mother. She is one nasty lady son. Talks a lot of trash about your dad.

Your trash talk is almost as juvenile and moronic as your love/hate/obsession with Kobe ...almost.

I wonder if he ordered fries with that WAHmburger.

[Höfner]

"MF'ers Want To See Us In The First Round"

Kobe didn't say that

[ambchang]

Needing lies to motivate himself and act all ghetto.

Very professional.
