No Grant, I wasn't particularly interested in either watching Kobe play against the Kings "one more time" or, for that matter, listening to you and Jerry slobber all over yourselves singing his praises. But I'm not worried. I'm sure you'll still find a way to bring Kobe into the conversation...
"Oh, look. Russell's pass to _______ is reminiscent of Fisher's pass to Kobe in game 3."
"You know, Jerry, Kobe would have taken that open shot. It's a shame ______ didn't do so."
"Grant, I think Kobe looks ________ sitting there on the bench."
etc.
I would not be at all surprised if it's admitted at some point that Grant and Jerry tried to get Kobe to sit with them at the broadcast table. And if it happens, I predicted it first.
