Formerly #8 and now #24 of the Los Angles Lakes, Kobe Bryant is considered one of the premiere basketball players in the league next to Michael Jordan. His record setting 81 points. Kobe and his team went to the NBA finals in 2009-2010 and then they won by 2 points when they were tied 3-3. The Celtics had the ball at the last 5 seconds but Kobe played his hard defense then the LA Lakers won. They tried to get the 2011, but they failed, they made it to the playoffs and beat the New Orleans Hornets but they couldn't make it past the Dallas Mavericks. This year seems to be their year, especially Dirk Nowatsiki's. A lot of people are not really on his side but he is pretty good this year, i am 100% sure that he isn't going to make it to the NBA finals next year.
