[TMTTRIO]

"The difference between USA Basketball now as opposed to the first Dream Team is [that] when the Dream Team played, it was such a novelty and all the players from Argentina and Turkey and wherever still had posters of Magic and Michael and all these guys on their wall," Bryant says. "So it was something where they were in awe of them. As opposed to now, where, now this might be a stretch, but if you go to Manu [Ginobili's] house, I don't think he has a poster of me in his bedroom.":lol

i didn't know Kobe has such a comedic side in him.

From the same article:

Another ad that has drawn considerable attention is Bryant's split-screen spot with Shaquille O'Neal in which their faces are juxtaposed into one as they talk about the NBA playoffs.

"I had no idea they were going to put me with him; it was like beauty and the beast," Bryant says jokingly. "No, they told us that they would pair me with Shaq to hype the playoffs and we all fed into it."

:lol

MJ >>>>>>>>>>>>> Kobe

[Obstructed_View]

MJ >>>>>>>>>>>>> Kobe
Is that really an insult?

[Spurminator]

MJ has a poster of Manu on his wall, and a photo of himself standing by that poster on his office desk.

[SpursFanFirst]

:lol

OT, but Lefty, WHERE do you come up with those avatars? Those are the silliest things I've ever seen! :lmao

Oh, and the quote...bleh on Kobe. He just needs to go away already, but I suppose him wondering about Manu having a poster of him is somewhat funny.
