Kobe Bryant Gets a NBA BIG Commercial: “Forever Kobe”

Two things stand out about this commercial immediately.  Mos Def music and the fact that Kobe gets a NBA Finals commercial while his team is eliminated and he is out for some time following surgery.  Agree with the timing or not, the dunk you see happened in the 2002 Finals and is one of the most iconic in Kobe’s illustrious career.  Well done by the NBA.   [Los That Sports...
