There's a fine line between a humble celebration and being a sports jerk. Where does Kobe cross the line?

I don't get it. I see Kobe gesturing that he just won his third straight title, I see him dunking the ball, and I see him trying to figure out what Shaq just said
Where did I miss it?

It's hard to capture it in just a picture. C comes closest, but you really have to see him in motion.

Speaking of trying to understand Shaq, that can be rather difficult.
Anyone see those Burger King commercials?

You missed the part where your suppose to be jealous because he plays basketball good, makes millions of dollars and is everywhere you look.
So that makes him an awful person, and we should all hate him because he smiles when he plays.

Maybe Kobe should get caught with marijuana or steal some cell phones. Maybe he should have 10 children with 7 different mothers. Perhaps he should hang with a huge posse. Maybe he should beat his wife.
Maybe that will make him more like the other players, which nobody seems to have a problem with.

Anyone see the article where his dad won't talk to him? I'm sure you did Rex and Brad? Because he married outside of his race? Good to see he is able to keep his life in order. I also knows he takes classes at UCLA, but probably extension/distance Education

I read it. Hard to believe but thats the story. Once he decided to get married his dad stopped speaking to him and he said something to the effect of marrying outside of his race and that Kobe will understand when he grows up. Supposedly, Kobe leaves tickets for his father at every game and has made it clear that his father is welcome to call and/or visit anytime. Its a one-sided problem.
Say what you want about the guy on the court, but he's got his shit together for the most part off the court.

He sure does. He's a class act. Props to Kobe, win or lose in this series. It'll be a sad day if/when he leaves LA.

I found Jordan's post-championship celebrations to be more annoying, personally.

I found his father's attitude to be especially surprising becuase Kobe spent a significant period of time growing up overseas (i assume his dad was with him at the time). usually people tend to lose those kind of attitudes when they experiance different cultures.

So Kobe's dad is a racist MF. Interesting.
