So I assume you've all heard the news about the kobe 11 being his last sig sneaker. Well news just came out that Tinker will be designing it.

For what it's worth, something came on my FB yesterday that said something along the lines of "Tinker to design Kobe's last sig." *shrug*

Although I don't know when Kobe started playing for the Bulls. First colorway used to always be yellow/black (del sol) now it's always something crazy sans the Masterpiece.

This is saying next season will be his last season. Which is different than saying the 11 will be the last in the nike kobe line. It could end up that way but that screenshot isn't saying that... Maybe wishful thinking but i hope the line continues. I think it will...

KOBE BRYANT
Dear Basketball,
From the moment
I started rolling my dad’s tube socks
And shooting imaginary
Game-winning shots
In the Great Western Forum
I knew one thing was real:
I fell in love with you.
A love so deep I gave you my all —
From my mind & body
To my spirit & soul.
As a six-year-old boy
Deeply in love with you
I never saw the end of the tunnel.
I only saw myself
Running out of one.
And so I ran.
I ran up and down every court
After every loose ball for you.
You asked for my hustle
I gave you my heart
Because it came with so much more.
I played through the sweat and hurt
Not because challenge called me
But because YOU called me.
I did everything for YOU
Because that’s what you do
When someone makes you feel as
Alive as you’ve made me feel.
You gave a six-year-old boy his Laker dream
And I’ll always love you for it.
But I can’t love you obsessively for much longer.
This season is all I have left to give.
My heart can take the pounding
My mind can handle the grind
But my body knows it’s time to say goodbye.
And that’s OK.
I’m ready to let you go.
I want you to know now
So we both can savor every moment we have left together.
The good and the bad.
We have given each other
All that we have.
And we both know, no matter what I do next
I’ll always be that kid
With the rolled up socks
Garbage can in the corner
:05 seconds on the clock
Ball in my hands.
5 … 4 … 3 … 2 … 1
Love you always,
Kobe

Happy as a Laker fan.
Sad as a Kobe fan.
Will never understand people who can't acknowledge his greatness even if they hate him.
I'm in LeBron and CP3 hate threads all the time but when it comes down to being real I always recognize their talent and greatness at what they do.
It's crazy that most Kobe haters can't aknowledge the same for Bean.
Not all, some.
I know some on this board do, and I respect it.
