Kobe Bryant and Matt Barnes are 'like boyfriend & girlfriend

[makaveli_99]

Barnes spoke about the process on Fox Radio's "Into the Night with Tony Bruno" on Thursday night.
"Kobe has been the driving force behind this. I have been talking to Kobe back and forth like we were boyfriend and girlfriend for the last two weeks and sending us texts and talking. It feels good when you have the best player in the world in your corner and Kobe is definitely in my corner. He sent me a crazy text message today saying something like, anyone crazy enough to mess with me is crazy enough to play with me. So I think that was a good tone to set and I think I am ready to be a Laker."

Barnes and Artest... both went at Kobe... couldn't beat him, so they joined him
