Kobe Bryant wants his team to win a championship this season. It doesn't have anything to do with his competitive spirit. Instead, Kob' has a different motivation. According to the New York Post, Bryant received a $20,000+ Black Gold Jeroboam of 1998 Dom Pérignon bottle—which there are only 50—at the London West Hollywood for being the newest brand ambassador for Hublot. After accepting the gift, Kobe said, “we’ll pop this in June,” referencing when the Lakers would win the 2013 NBA Finals.

Is it wrong that we'd like to see what a #madmamba would do with that champagne if they don't win it all this season?
