Kobe Bryant. An amazing human.

C’mon, Kobe! Put up 45 points, with 9 assists. The assists are important. Otherwise people might wrongfully accuse you of being selfish.

And Lamar, take down 15 boards and inexplicably hit two threes. Please. Luke Walton, be a ‘great glue guy’ with a ‘high basketball IQ.’ (PS I love your tattoo of monkeys dunking basketballs. That’s what it is, right?). Chris Mihm, keep those muscles warm; you never know when Phil will mouth those magic words: ‘thirty. one.’ And then those other three: ‘yes, Chris. You!’

And Pau? Just keep that beard. Don’t even think about shaving. You’re beautiful.

MP3: Kobe Bryant - “K.O.B.E.” (Feat. Tyra Banks) (from Eight, 2001).

MP3: Warren Zevon - “Join Me In L.A.” (from Warren Zevon, 1976).

Oh, and fellas: do all that three times in a row. And yeah, two of them will be at the fake Garden.

Boston: Kind of likely to win the final series.

  1. I know it’s still totally possible but I would be lying if I said that I had faith in these assholes. :(

  2. Mihm is in and JVG just said Luke Walton has a ‘great basketball IQ.’

    I’ve got a real talent for prediction.

  3. Good call, mister.
