The Lakers: A Championship In Pictures

Four. Congrats to Kobe & Kobes. You know when a trend is on the “dump” side of hump/dump? Whenever the item starts to make appearances in variant colors. Case in point: Malcolm X hat. They were dead when you started seeing them in any color but black or white. Phil’s trying...
