    ^^^ Playing defense when Kobe scored 81 on him and everyone else, playing defense when he stuck his foot under Kobe on a jumper to try and take him out of the Finals, or just playing defense in general?

    I think Vanessa's instagram page is private, which is probably causing this problem.

    OK now we're talking ..... producer Bryant nails this one.



    Edit. Damn now the clip is getting the CaCHooKa Man treatment and is taken down. Maybe someone has another link? It was animated pencil sketching mixed with animation of real images and Kobe's narration. Really well done. Goose bumpy at times.

    Here's another link with him talking about it. Guess it is in a festival somewhere coming up and they took it down?

    Great advice! I know a what a kids want to work on everything and but its important to have a plan for going into the off-season like Kobe said and master a few things each summer. No one was better at doing this than Kobe throughout his career, coming back with something new or being even better at a particular skill.

    It really is great advice especially for a young man like Ingram who has so much room to grow.

    I'd say he needs to come back with 1) some muscle on his frame, 2) a reliable three, and maybe 3) a one dribble pull-up in the mid-range.

    If he can tackle those 2 skills and some physical work, he'll be a problem already next year.

    It would not take too much additional to improve his back to the basket game some too with the good foundation he already has. Kobe's the best. Would like Kobe to show him how to survey the floor for passing opportunities while backing down like he was so excellent at doing.

    A couple of things to work on?
    Ingram: jumpshot and strength
    Everyone else: defense and defense

    I would like to add a jump hook from either side of the lane. Kawai Leonard is very effective with that shot, and BI has even more length.

    Still one of the most incredible shots I've seen.

    Reminds me of the Portland 65pt overtime corner 3 in Aldridge's mug.

    FYI, I'd throw that shot into the Pacific.
