Kobe grew up watching Michael Jordan play, so he wanted to be just like him. In high school, the janitor would open the gym for him, so he could practice from 4 a.m. until 8 a.m. before school started. During a Q & A session, when asked how much he practices, Bryant replied 6-8 hours a day. The reason why he got so good, was because of a good work ethic. I hope this was helpful.

Kobe Bryant was a first round draft choice of the Charlotte Hornets in 1996. Shortly after the draft the Lakers traded their starting center, Vlade Divac, to the Hornets for Bryant.

After the 1995-96 season Shaquille O'Neal was a free agent. It was then announced that O'Neal would join the Los Angeles Lakers on a seven-year, $121 million contract.

I believe a cow was being milked and Justin Timberlake was eating goats milk ice cream in a bikini. Oh! And a dog named Polo was wearing a bow tie and ordering drinks for his cat friend.
