Ok. So you know when Kobe told us he only had a couple more seasons left in the tank?
Yeah, me too. Well…he’s updated us on that….it’s now until he’s 40.
“My aim is to play until I’m 40 years old and I believe I can do that. This year, we added very good players to our squad. Steve Nash, Dwight Howard will make us stronger. Right now, things are not going very well but I believe it’ll get better soon.” – Kobe Bryant

Can Dwight Howard Handle the LA Spotlight?
As I watch the Los Angeles Lakers, I find that their center in Dwight Howard looks increasingly uncomfortable. On one hand, I think his discomfort is more related to trying to find chemistry with his new teammates — NBA future Hall of Famers, Kobe Bryant and Steve Nash.
