Via Wiretap: Kobe Needs Gasol To Be Black Swan

"Even when he was in Memphis and he was the go-to guy, he was always very nice," Kobe Bryant said of Gasol. "Very white swan. I need him to be black swan. Be an (expletive) sometimes."

"It definitely had a very positive effect on me that he approached me," Gasol said. "He let me know, 'Look, it starts with us. And I'll go, but you've got to go, too.' "

Nice to know that Kobe is looking to step up and is looking for help doing it. If this were say, Shaq, I feel like this would be more of a convo like:

Kobe: "Stop being fat"
Shaq: "Stop being ign'ant I'm superman"
Kobe: "That's not a word"


With Gasol its like:

Kobe: "Yo Pau, tenemos que intensificar. ¿Estás conmigo?"
Pau: "Sí hombre, podemos hacer esto. Voy a ser tu cisne negro."
Kobe: "**** sí, vamos a tres de turba!"

Funny as hell! Lololololololol. Yeah its good Kobe went to him. Now I would like to see them both go to Bynum & tell him to look at the 08 & 09 tapes of himself when he went on those tears. If him & Pau play nads out all the time there isn't a front line that can deal with us.

If thats the Black Swan, no wonder why Kobe wants Pau to be that thing. If I'm on the other team I'd be scared of that thing running around.

I think its comical that a CHICK FLICK is cool in the sports world because it has A LOT of girl on girl make-out action.

When I first heard Kobe's comment I was like wooo, then I was like Kobe's pilgrim photoshoot and like oooh, then I remembered that Jordan's Tony Braxton music comments and was like slow down (how did the most manly basketball player ever get pumped before games listening to 'unbreak my heart'?), then I was like this nickname is going to stick - Gasol is now the back swan - or is it the ambiguous swan (nevermind it won't stick) and then I was like are people in Spain are going to misinterpret this and think its some racist thing about Kobe wanting Pau to play more black and THEN I was like THEN I realized how bad I wanted to see a Laker game today and it was time to think about something else until tomorrow.
