Pequeño...

Congratulations to the Boston Celtics, your 2008 NBA champions..while I 've really never been a fan of the Beantown I am proud for 3 guys on this year's squad...Ray Allen a.k.a. Jesus Shuttlesworth, James Posey, probably 1 of the best role players to ever play the game and Sam "I Am" Cassell, can you say clutch???
See, for me the NBA has always been about phenomenal player personalities like Voshon Lenard a.k.a "The Deerhunter", Sheed Wallace (no comments), Qyntel Woods a.k.a "Pitbull Fighting", Charles Barkley of course, R.I.P. Eddie Griffin caught masturbating while watching porn on a DVD in his vehicle immediately after crashing an SUV!!!, the whole JailBlazer team, Isiah Rider who currently possesses a tremendous rapsheet, Shawn Kemp, who is NOT married but a proud father of 7 children with 6 women...oh, and I almost forgot, Jason Caffey (supporting member of the MJ Bulls team in the 90's that erupted for 6 NBA champions) who put new standards with ten children with eight women....And don't forget that "60 per cent of retired NBA players go broke five years after their NBA paycheques stop arriving"...You are probably getting the big picture, damn I love this game!!!

Add to that list Pacer forward Danny Granger who apparently is a big Batman fan and is reportently considering building a batcave in his house...hilarious stuff there, those dudes really keep impressing us...

Another favorite of mine, Brian Scalabrine, a totally Irish benchwarming figure delivering a classic right after Game 6:

Brian Scalabrine is clearly an NBA champion who doesn't take himself too seriously...

As for Kobe's press conference, he spoke in depressed two or three word answers reminding everybody what a jerk he really is and how he cannot stand losing even if this comes from a better squad...
No Kobe, you AND your teammates got shutdown during the 2008 NBA Finals where everybody was placing their money on the Lakers to win it easily...
No Kobe, you are not Jordan and you r never going to become Jordan how hard you try.... solo a copycat...MJ would never had let the opponent team to come back from a 25 points deficit in the 3nd quarter in a home game...you let it happen by NOT dominating a situation where you are supposed to dominate...UPDATE:

No Kobe you still haven't made it alone...Shaq earned his ring in Miami a couple years ago proving that he can put his ego aside for the team's best...
No Kobe, you are not as good as a lot of people think, and certainly nowhere near the transcendent, all-conquering great your most loyal supporters have claimed.
Want Proof??
Kobe is and was that good for most of the regular season and playoffs, but he simply came up small when it counted most...that's why the new nickname: Pequeño!
And don't miss 2 great pieces about NBA superstars, Kobe and Kg..
The 1st one from my main man Paul Shirley who had the chance to be a teammate of both Kevin Garnett and Kobe Bryant and comes up with an excellent comparison, mainly of characters...
Kobe and KG
The other from SLAM magazine editor Khalid Sallam, a longtime 76ers fan, who nicely breaks down why Kobe is both loved and hated so much...worth reading!
