'You need to learn how its done first, and I can teach you here. I know how to do it and I've learned from the best - players who have won multiple times over and over.'

I wonder if they even planned what Kobe was going to say when he went into the meeting.

Sounds like Kobe is not ready to make this DH12 team. I will be shocked if this pitch does not send Howard on his way.

I'm surprised he didn't bring out an empty chair

Kobe thinks Dwight Howard is a moron (which I believe he is spot-on);

Kobe's pitch to Dwight:  "I can teach you to be a champion... alls ya need to do is ride the coattails of a dominant big man... er... wait.  Umm... Hmm...  Nevermind.  Good luck in Houston."

and Dwight's response should have been, why didn't you do that last year?

All this pandering to Dwight is only going to make him worse.   Wonder if he does a decision.

So who do you think leaked Kobe's pitch. I don't think this is something that would make DH happy.

What effect do you think this leak has on DH's decision.

Is this Kobe just putting it out there that he did not grovel at the feet of Dwight?
