Watch Kobe Bryant’s tremendous reaction to the LA Lakers post-game celebration
KOBE Bryant was shown footage of his Lakers teammates wildly celebrating a meaningless win amid their dismal NBA season. His reaction was terrifying.
GIVE this to Kobe Bryant: Even in the midst of one of the most trying seasons of his career, he’s maintaining his almost-unrivalled intensity.
On Sunday night, in the Lakers’ overtime victory over the Celtics, a Lakers TV reporter was interviewing Jeremy Lin (25 points) when Nick Young and Jordan Hill crashed the interview.
The three of them — plus Carlos Boozer, who makes a brief cameo — clowned it up for the cameras, one of the few bright spots in a miserable Lakers season that has them at 14-41, the fourth-worst record in the league.
On Monday night, Bryant, appearing on “Jimmy Kimmel Live,” was asked by Kimmel if there would have been a celebration if he were there.
Cue death stare.

Bryant, who is out for the season after suffering a torn rotator cuff in late January, was suffering through a miserable season by his standards, averaging 22.3 points per game — his lowest since 1998-99 (not counting last season’s six-game cameo) — and shooting 37.3 per cent, far and away the worst percentage of his career.
