    KH Classic: Kobe Bryant

    KH Classic: Kobe Bryant

    The Lakers unveiled Kobe Bryant’s statue and in honor of that we’re throwing it back to one of our best episodes ever — with Bean, himself. Kobe looks back on being the first guard to jump to the NBA out of high school, what it was like playing as a teenager in the league, and his first All-Star Game — matching up against MJ. He also discusses why he switched from wearing number 8 to number 24 and what it was like on the Lakers after Shaq left. There was no one like Kobe Bryant, and we will never forget the energy and love he showed us during this episode. We miss you, Bean. RIP.

    Deciding to go straight from high school to the NBA (8:03)
    Dropping 61 in MSG against the Knicks (33:23)
    His daughter Gianna’s love for basketball (37:26)

    KH Classic: Udonis Halsem

     Our guy, Udonis Haslem, is up in the Miami rafters forever! This past weekend UD got his jersey retired by his hometown team and we were there to witness it. In his honor, we’re throwing it back to Season 1, when we chopped it up in front of his shark tank. UD is one of the true OG’s of the league and we went deep with him about everything from D-Wade’s rookie year, all-time Pat Riley stories, and why the big 3 took money off their contracts to make sure they could keep UD on the squad. A 305 legend. Tap in!
