here we go mark the first question on the right side mark hello sir Los Angeles Times Kobe, you talked in the post

game

interview about really feeling the moment, feeling the

press

ure, something, something about custody, but you know I was just, um , I wanted it so much. I wanted it so much and on top of that man I was on, I was on e, I was really very tired and you under them and the more I tried to push, the further he got away from me and I'm glad that my teammates really got us into new to the

game

and you know from Stanford how he was able to make a damn shot at the end of the game and made some free throws but it was tough he said it was special to beat the Celtics oh so you didn't do it.

I feel a rivalry, I'm just lying to you guys, yeah, it's when you're in the moment, you have to sup

press

that because if you get caught up in the hype of it all, you know you're not really playing your best. basketball, but I mean, you know what a student would be like. I'm with a boy. Can I know every series the Lakers have played in? Me too, but I couldn't concentrate on I had to concentrate on the player on the right Chris Tomasson AOL Kobe Fanhouse What did he do when you were fighting? What do I mean to you?

I think it was early in the fourth quarter when the fans started chanting Kobe to help you keep going, don't you dare, what did that man do? do you know what I am? I'm really looking at you. I didn't even listen to all of them. So tired were my ears. I mean, they really were. I felt like I was at around six in the morning on the track again running. I was just drying up on another note. You said after the game. I think this was the hardest title you've ever won. Just talk about what's difficult.

This is and was This may be the most tension-filled and fight-filled endgame you've ever been in. It was the most physical. You know, they think they could beat us. Obviously, what happened in 08, you know, is the physical aspect of his team. smart, they're extremely well-coached guys that make great shots and it was tough they weren't going to beat themselves we had to beat them Jim here in Los Angeles Jim Hill Kobe kcbs-tv can you talk in terms of what this means to you individually? We know what it means as a team, but what about individually? For you guys, he has one more to check, so you can take him to the bank.

You know how I am. You know how I don't forget anything, not a single chip now that the season is over. and are you being honest with us what is the condition what is the condition will the body be and what is the total of all these games I'm old how was it what does it feel like does it feel good enough to make the playoffs Obviously I'm going to have to watch your knee and you can't figure out some things. I can't play a full season as it is now, but I have to figure out some things, same with the finger, oh you.

I know without the tape I can't group basketball, so I know some things I have to figure out during the offseason, but it was good enough to get through this Jason, your body or it's a matter of learning to play differently than you. age no, it's just an injury that drove me crazy and you know, what made this even sweeter is that everyone kept talking about how he's old, he's old, since he was hurt, being old, you want, I got hurt, I drained my knee and suddenly I got a hole in it. in 30-point games like 10-point games and everyone says how young I look.

I felt hurt. Do you know that you've played more NBA basketball than, by far, anyone under the age of 32? You want to start my motivation right. now for this season don't start with me right now here good luck go Ted soval KFWB local radio first of all I don't know if you know this but Chuck said yesterday if you win today you're the best laker ever I don't know if you heard that, that's fantastic, that's everything, it's a start, you care a lot. It is not like this? Yeah, uh, what fishermen say after the third quarter, he looked incredibly lively in that little gathering, no matter what. our emotional leader and our verbal leader and he just said guys, we have 12 minutes, 12 minutes to dig deep and get back into this game, everything we worked hard for he had 12 minutes to put together and we followed his lead, he came up with that. triple late again to write the most humble SD fish.

I mean, that's just who he is, you know, and you know, there's not enough words of praise I can use to describe him and how I feel about the back, right, hello, jonathan abrams, new york, Kobe, jonathan abrams. New York Times, after a game, Tim and Mike Procopio flew to Boston. What role do they play even in the entire playoffs? Lately you pick my Jack Bauer, he gave me all the edits, all the history and you know, scouting reports and he wrote defensive rotations for the Celtics and he was my eyes and ears, so when I played the game, you know, I used all your scouting reports and all your information was a huge help to me as that was the whole postseason, especially this series, because Boston was a big deal, me personally, a big deal and I needed some extra eyes and ears to help me get over it.

Kent on the right side. Ken Berger of cbssports com. Number five is also one away from Michael and I know one thing. Would you care about him was the way he was able to do it, oh boy, yes sir, hahaha, I love that boy, I love that boy, I was good, it was going to be a really touching question, but oh, I'm sorry, It's a book of your flow, but I know one of the things you admired about Michael is that you have an innate ability to figure out how to win a game any way he can, whether it's offense, defense or whatever.

Where did you search the memory banks and are you in your mind? Wherever you know, where did you find that tonight? Well I had to do some things, I mean I had to rebound the ball, it was a big key for us and it was a big focus for me, you know, it's whatever it takes to win the game. I have to do whatever it takes, I ask my job, sometimes the shots aren't going to fall, but you have to find something to try to help your team win and no one was better at that than MJ talking about him and Number five, how much does that mean? you're taking one more step towards you know towards that more um I don't know I mean you know I have it's hard for me to really put that in any kind of context in terms of you know he and I are going because ninety percent of what I've learned and what I discovered comes from him, so this is not a situation where it's not Shack Robbie and I or when it's not the same, you know, it's this difference, it's more of a genuine love. what I have for him and what he has done for me is completely different in the back, right, Ryan, we are Stephen, the photo evaluates the favors, where is he still, eh, haha, now hide from me, man, Brian, in the back , on the right, Kobe Bryant, Monique and the Associated Press, if you don't mind. a quick look ahead and if you can come back here next year, can you imagine there's no way you're playing some kind of lebron wade and lebron bosh combo?

Would you like that and do you think it will be necessary? Doing something against the world, playing against the team with various guys like that and we just want to emotionally wear ourselves out every time you ask a question. I don't want to think about it, they're guys, yeah, I've seen those guys. Up close and personal, you know, I don't want to think about playing both of them at the same time. I want to enjoy this for a moment. You like a challenge, if you accept something like that next year to go for a third, what do you do?

Do you think I want to be surly with you? Thanks Toby, is it official? He speaks right away. Come on, mom.
