Team USA Video: Watch Kobe Bryant Trash Talk Kyrie Irving After 1-on-1 Bet
Kobe Bryant has some serious game, even when he is running his mouth.
The Black Mamba tore into Kyrie Irving recently after he was asked to go at it one-on-one. Bryant received the offer in the only way fitting for the Lakers star: He was shocked.
How could this little kid think he could take the Mamba on?
Someone please inform Bryant that this is the reigning Cleveland Cavaliers Rookie of the Year, and he recently dismantled the entirety of Team USA. Video evidence can be found here.
Well, the two have settled on playing a year from now for $50 thousand, which will go to charity. You know, so young man here can mature a little to even have a shot. At least, that's how Bryant sees it.
We thank Jack Moore of BuzzFeed for posting the video and transcribing some of the more brilliant parts:
"Kobe: I know your dad don't think you can beat me one-on-one. I KNOW that. I KNOW that. Get your dad on the phone right now, be like, "Pops, tryin' to bet Kob 50 grand I can beat him one-on-one." He'd be like, "Son, are you crazy? Are you crazy?"
"
The best part is near the conclusion of the verbal sparring session:
"Kyrie: You think you playing Lil' Bow Wow, or something?
"
Kobe: Y'all about the same size. Y'all about the same size. You know what I mean? Your cute.
I agree that Irving is younger and is one of the quickest guards around, but this is Kobe Bryant. He is asking for a world of hurt.
But it will be fun to see nonetheless.
