Kobe Bryant was on the Internet machine Wednesday morning, a day after the Golden State Warriors clinched the NBA title.
While some presumptuous fans might think Bean was talking smack to the Splash Brothers, it's more likely Bryant was just recalling feats of his youth - in this case, his celebration of his second NBA title with teammate Shaquille O'Neal in 2001.
As he mentions, that Los Angeles Lakers squad only lost one game in the postseason. Only a few years later, the big fella was musing about rubbing Kobe out.
