    Smith was a Laker, but Samaki was on the team longer. Makes sense.

    You just blew me away. I never knew Joe played for us. And I'm sure I watched every game that year.

    Wasn't Sam Perkins' nickname big smooth?

    We got him in a trade the year after we won the 2nd title. I forget who was involved though.

    Watching highlights from 2012-2013, what an amazing season from Bean, wish things could have ended differently. Other than 60, this was the last time Kobe was Kobe.

    That's a pretty stupid question. How quick people are to forget.

    Whoever plays well tonight = GOAT

    It's really pretty absurd how often that is thrown around.

    Thank you for the heads up. Only reason why I will record that show that day.

    Yes. Kobe, Kareem, and Mr West. Magic was invited, but will be at UCLA / Kentucky game. He did something with Shaq on Wed in private to honor him.

    Want more Kobe?

    I guess he's planning on going on SportsCenter at 6:00PM PST.

    Kobe's probably trying to market his new project with all these ESPN showings.
