Kobe Bryant hosted a basketball camp in the Philippines, and when we say "hosted", we mean he played 1-on-1 with some random Asian guy in front of tons of Philippino fans. That's where we got confused, because we always...

What? Why are you reading this? You should just be watching the video above already! For God sakes, it's the tryouts for the Laker Girls! How can it possibly get much better than that! Just watch it already, sheesh!

What, you thought Nike wasn't going to run a video of the new Kobe puppet celebrating? Fat chance. In fact, the only surprise may have been that puppet Kobe rocks out to 90's era Montel Jordan. Hard core, folks, though the...

Clearly, YouTube users already had these puppies ready to go. That being said, this Kobe-Lakers Tribute video really isn't that bad for a slapdash job posted within 30 minutes of L.A.'s NBA Finals Game 5 victory. A little...

Is anyone really surprised? As soon as Kevin Garnett went down with an injury, the Lakers became prohibitive favorites to win the NBA title, just because the road through the Western Conference appeared easier than the path...

In case you hadn't caught on yet, Steve Nash is a bit of a character. The point guard maestro loves to dabble in comedy -- his buddy pics with Shaq and Baron Davis are must sees -- and now he's developed a friendship with...

Suffice it to say, Game 4 of the NBA Finals didn't exactly go to plan. Kobe Bryant was good, but not the closer everyone expected. Instead, that role was filled by L.A. point guard Derek Fisher. Meanwhile, Orlando was in...

Nike's unfortunate puppet advertising campaign -- not in terms of conception, but in terms of execution, considering the fact that LeBron James was thoroughly bounced in the Eastern Conference Finals -- has gained a lot of...

Kobe had a chance to win it in the final minute, but for the second straight game, but the Magic defense wouldn't let it happen. As a result, and thanks in part to a pair of clutch Mickael Pietrus free throws, Orlando pulled...

We say "Could have been legendary," because the Magic eventually lost in Game 2, after Courtney Lee couldn't hit an incredibly acrobatic layup at the buzzer, giving the Lakers an overtime reprieve and, eventually a second...

U.S. Representative Corrine Brown, of Florida (duh! Come on, know your Reps people!), has been known to deliver fairly ridiculous proclamations. Her recent work is no different, with the Honorable Lady from Florida...

If this is going to be a series, the Orlando Magic are going to have to do a few things: Get Dwight Howard the ball in even better scoring positions, find a way to control the Lakers' damage late in the game, and FOR THE LOVE...

For three quarters it was back and forth. For one quarter, it was all Kobe Bryant. Surprised? You shouldn't be. A year after the Lakers lost Game 1 in Boston and never fully recovered, L.A. responded by cruising past Orlando,...

NOW we've got a series. After the Lakers survived a serious scare from Denver in Game 1, the Nuggets found a way to pull out a Game 2 win, using a huge game from Carmelo Anthony and tight defense late to hold off the Lakers...

How do you know it's the NBA Playoffs? When one of the sport's two biggest stars, Kobe Bryant, goes to the free throw line six times in the final minute to salt away a Game 1 victory in what is sure to be an incredibly...
