Kobe Almost A Net?
23rd June, 2007 - 4:11 pm
Bergen Record -
The Nets had worked out Bryant three times, and fell madly in love all three times. Calipari and Nets general manager John Nash dined with Kobe's parents, Joe and Pam, the night before some lucky NBA team would hire the Bryants' high school wonderchild. Joe and Pam told the Nets' officials they wanted Kobe in the Meadowlands, close to their suburban Philly home.

Calipari and Nash agreed: They would select Kobe with the eighth pick. [READ]

I would have never imagine Kobe as a Net but that would have been crazy, but I dont think his career would have been what it is if it wasn't for L.A., Shaq and Phil. oh yeah let me not forget Big Shot Bob

That would have been interesting. How different would Kobes rep be? would he be looked at like Iverson since her has never won anything without Shaq?

Its also non-sense. Kobe was already telling teams whom he would play for, and the Nets werent on the list. He was also considered a risky pick at 8.
