Kobe Jumps over an Aston Martin?

Well, there has been a video of Kobe Bryant, the Lakers soon to be MVP floating around youtube. It features him jumping over a moving Aston Martin sports car. At first it looks like he really does it, but then upon careful examination, it looks like he was standing directly next to it and didn't really jump directly over it. From the camer angle, it really looks like he was right in front. I am guessing it was a publicity stunt, and it worked! It's booming all over the internet! Kobe wouldn't risk his career to do this for real anyway, but it looks cool! Here is the video.

Future Opponents

I don't know who I want the Lakers to play next. Both Houston and Utah, are good opponents and lets just say that either one will be a formidable opponent. None the less, I think the Lakers will rise to occasion and defeat any one of them.

Donations needed!

I really want to go to a playoffs this season and I have saved $60.00 so far from my allowance. I am asking for donations in any amount to help me go to at least one game! Please click on the button below to send me donations through Paypal; I would really appreciate it! I will post pictures from the game if I am able to go this year. Thank you!
