Kobe
Bryant silenced his critics this past weekend by winning his first NBA
Championship without the help of Rick Fox. After being in Fox's shadow
for his previous 3 NBA titles, many critics believed that Kobe would
never be able to enter into the great player conversation without
winning one on his own.
Even when they won three championships
back to back to back from 2000-2002, most of the credit for the wins
went to Rick's 7.6 points and 4.3 rebounds per game in those series.
Many of the games would have been lost if not for those 7.6 points,
especially game four of the 2002 series where they narrowly beat New
Jersey 103.6-103.
Fox has often taunted Bryant for his inability
to win without him, from the sets of soap operas and Tyler Perry movies
where Fox is now. But now he gives his due to the man who finally
proved he could carry a team alone.
"Kobe really proved he had
the heart of a lion out there," said Fox. "It was almost as powerful a
performance as my upcoming one in Tyler Perry's Heart Of A Lion, where
I suffer a horrible car crash and have to get my heart replaced with
that of a lion. It's only then that I discover the true meaning of
family and religion."
"I mean, I think it's obvious now that
Bryant sweats passion. Hopefully when he does work up a sweat, he's
already put on my new cologne, Scent Of A Fox. It keeps you smelling
fresh when you're facing a tough triple team of foul odor."
