NAME'S KOBE............25000 AND COUNTING !!


Who says you need zero gravity to fly. Not this man, they call Kobe Bryant. His every move on the basketball court is a sight to behold, whether it's the famous slam dunk or a free throw, this man can do magic with the ball. LA Lakers famous shooting guard is a global sporting icon and last week became the 15th player in NBA history to reach 25,000 career points against Cleveland Cavaliers, and in the process became the youngest to do so at 31 years, 151 days.


Though I haven't been able to see him in action for at least last couple of seasons , but nonetheless, on and off I have managed to follow his basketball exploits through the press. He burst on to the scene through 1996 NBA drafting by the Charlotte Hornets and then traded to LA Lakers. He along with another famous star Shaquille O' Neal helped LA Lakers win three consecutive championship from 2000 to 2002. After Shaq's exit at the end of 03 -4 season Kobe become the mainstay of his team and has played his heart out in every single game for the Lakers.


Way to go Kobe !................Good Luck for the future games.


LOVE THIS GAME !!
