We're hungry. I know I am, as much as anybody else is. And you know Kobe is. Kobe's after something, I don't even know what it is. I think he's after stardom on Pluto or something. Pluto's not even a planet no more, which I'm very disturbed about. I grew up when Pluto was a planet. Now, I'm 25, I turn around and Pluto's no longer a planet. I'm going to elbow that guy in the nose. I love Pluto. Everybody loves Pluto. There's a dog named Pluto in the cartoons. I don't know how we got on that subject. We've got to see if we can get Pluto back."

lol, hilarious HOWEVER, anyone notice that Ron referred to himself as 25 years old? I actually was contemplating that some other player said this simply because the "I'm 25" s**t caught me off guard and well, I didnt think Ron would get his own age off by 5+ years lol

My wife just emailed me the exact same quote and she wrote "I think he has some kind of mental illness"

He enjoys the adulation, everyone thinks it's cute when you're winnning.

I'm happy for him, (and I'm happy for us).

Quote:
"I rate him the best finisher of all-time, not just for the one last shot--for which Michael Jordan was understandably famous and well-recognized--but he'll make consecutive shots. He will make the shots that bring you back into a game and then will continue to knock down shots until the game is won. I have never seen anybody like Kobe Bryant in that regard."
