Create-a-caption: Trophy love

By J.E. Skeets

Kobe Bryant poses for a photograph with his good buddy "Larry" during a practice day in Los Angeles on Sunday. (Dirk is so jealous.) Best caption wins this Lego version of the hardware.


After the jump, KG summons his powers.


Winner, STARDESTROYER:
Must ... become ... seven ... footer!!!

Runner-up, shadowdog87:
KG: "You won't like me when I'm angry ..."
Posey: "Um, KG, that only worked in the movies."
KG: "Shut up, James! I already turned my jersey green, the rest shouldn't be hard!"
Posey: "Your jersey has always been green. Green was a Timberwolves color too."
KG: *punches Posey in the face* "Don't you EVER say that word in my presence again!"

    No, I told you already - my wife, my kids, my team, all of that means nothing to me. It's all about you....you are the only thing that matters to me. You...*sniff*...you complete me. Please don't go. I know you have a home in Boston, but LA just isn't the same without you...

    "I pray to you, basketball gods, for the strenght and ability to win this, much coveted trophy!"
    That would be fun, to actually name the basketball gods. Michael Jordan would be up there as well as Pete Maravich... now on a different tandem.

    Photographer: [to assistant] "Look at that that intensity. I wonder what he's thinking right now."
    Kobe: [thinking to himself] "Man, these new NBA socks really are comfy. I can't believe American Gladiators wasn't on last night! I wonder when Hillary is finally going to give up her candidacy? I just know Turiaf is planting something in my locker right now. Aw man, did I forget to turn off my alarm clock radio this morning? This trophy kinda smells funny...like metal. Me-tal, that's a weird word."
