EbenGregory PSA: Kobe Bryant Is The Highest Scoring Laker Of All Time

In “I should be the NBA logo now” news, the big homey Kobe Bryant is back at it again, this time he’s surpassed Jerry West to become the LA Lakers all time leading scorer.

Oh for real EbenGregory…sounds like he’s the best of the best huh man?

Yes…

And now…here’s ESPN.com explaining how ‘ol boy done picked himself up another honor:

Kobe has covered the Logo. Needing 29 points to become the all-time leading scorer in Los Angeles Lakers history, Kobe Bryant scored on a breakaway dunk with 4:14 left in the third quarter Monday night to pass Jerry West.

West scored 25,192 points in his 14-year career, all of which was spent with the Lakers. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1980. Bryant, in his 14th season, missed his first three shots in the game, but scored 23 points in the first half. He finished with 44 on 16-of-28 shooting, but the Lakers fell to the Grizzlies 95 -93. Bryant had the ball in his hands in the final seconds but passed to Ron Artest for a last-second 3-pointer. It clanged off the rim and Bryant left the floor shaking his head.

Bryant moved within a point of West’s mark on a dunk with 4:37 left in the third. He passed West 23 seconds later. There was a scramble for the ball on the Grizzlies end. Jordan Farmar gathered the loose ball and was alone with Bryant on the break. Farmar gave up the ball to Bryant for the dunk. West’s silhouette is used in the NBA logo, earning him the nickname.

I see said the blind man. And now…

Great and good are seldom the same man ice jewelry. Did you see it?
