Philly 2 Hollywood & Back Again
Well Kobe Bryant and his LA Lakers bounce back from last years' debacle against Boston to win the 2009 NBA chip.
During Kobe's rookie year I was 12 years old and striving toward my own basketball goals. I drew a tremendous amount of inspiration from Kobe's game, attitude and general swag.
I may be reaching here, but as young Black men we look beyond our fathers, uncles and grandfathers for male role models who embody greatness. I know I did; Kobe & MJ were two of my heroes coming up. This post is just a small tribute to them.
