Happy Birthday Mr. Bryant

August 22nd, 2008, 1:53 pm · Post a Comment · posted by KEITH SHARON, OCREGISTER.COM

On Aug. 23, the kid isn’t a kid anymore.

Kobe Bryant (wasn’t he just a high school phenom?) is turning 30. That’s 52 in basketball years. He says he feels younger than he did a few years ago, which is a weird thing to say.

It would be nice to see him celebrate with a gold medal. I wonder if Pau Gasol - US plays Spain for the gold medal in the Olympic Games - has other wishes for Kobe’s birthday.
