The Los Angeles Lakers snapped an eight-game losing streak on Sunday night when they defeated the Boston Celtics in overtime. They have still lost 16 of their last 18 games, but that didn’t stop Nick Young and company from celebrating like they just punched their tickets to the Western Conference Finals.
Would the Lakers have reacted that way if Kobe Bryant wasn’t out for the remainder of the season? Fortunately, Kobe was asked that exact question during an appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live” Monday night. This was his reaction.
The best part was Kimmel laughing so hard he could barely ask the question. Like the rest of us, he knew that must have driven Kobe insane.
The Lakers may be feeling more relaxed now that Kobe isn’t around to throw temper tantrums like this during practice, but their win over the Celtics gave them 14 wins on the season. It’s almost March. Tone it down, Swaggy P.
