YOU BEEN BLINDED

Kobe Bryant Takes A Lot Of Shots On And Off The Court

The Boston Celtics came back from a 24 point deficit to win game four of the NBA finals and take a 3-1 series lead over the Los Angeles Lakers. I don’t wanna say the finals are over, but kids in third world countries are wearing Los Angeles Lakers 2008 NBA Champions t-shirts today.

Kobe Bryant showed up for his post game interview looking like he was trying to summon the mental powers that they had in Scanners. Judging by the look on Kobe’s face, Sasha Vujacic would be wise not to open the door if the Mamba’s knocking. Kobe was asked how the team will bounce back from the kick in the balls loss and shared his remedy for one of the greatest choke jobs ever.

KB: Whine about it tonight. A lot of wine, lotta beer. A coupla shots.. Maybe like 20 of ‘em.. Digest it.. Get back to work tomorrow. Nothing you can do.

I knew Kobe likes to shoot a lot but damn.. 20 shots of liquor? He does that and he won’t be around for game five.

Another interesting part of KB24’s post game interview came when Los Angeles sports talk radio host Vic “The Brick” Jacobs was handed the microphone. If you’re unfamiliar with Vic you can check him out here.

VtBJ: Kobe, Vic the Brick, AM570 KLAC..

KB: I know I’m gonna get a positive question outta you.. Something optimistic.. It’s not like I’m the only optimist in this whole room..

VtBJ: 48 minutes left man. 48 minutes. Every game is unique and singular in its own way. You know that…. Third quarter though, opportunity to go for the jugular, up 18 at the half, what prevented it? Prevented the squad from really going to the next level emotionally and going for the kill?

KB: Nothing we just wet the bed. A nice big one too. One of the ones you can’t put a towel over. It’s terrible. There’s nothing you can do about it. They played great in the third quarter, we played like crap. They got back in the game and pulled out a great win, now it’s time to move on to the next one. Period.

I don’t know what Kobe meant by “One of the ones you can’t put a towel over“, but if you got some pissy sheets, TAKE THEM OFF THE BED KOBE. Laying on the wet spot sucks, lying in urine is dumb.
