Thank you, Kobe Bryant

If it wasn’t for you, and your incredible, jaw-dropping second half, the Spurs would have won Game 1 of this series on the road. Any other year, that probably wouldn’t be that big of a deal, but in the 2008 playoffs an opening-game road win in the Western Conference Finals would have been disastrous for everyone who officially hates the Spurs.

So thank you, Kobe Bean. I used to hate you. I don’t anymore. I just thought you should know that.
