You're not going to believe this, but Kobe Bryant once talked trash to Andre Iguodala before a game. OK, if you know anything about Bryant, then you must not be shocked at all. In an interview with Marcus Thompson II of The Mercury News, Iguodala shared a story in which Bryant took a page from the book of his idol Michael Jordan, and informed Iggy he was going to drop 50 on him before the game started.
Bryant's promise stemmed from the previous time they faced each other. Or, as Iguodala puts it, "his favorite defensive performance."
Even after getting stifled by Iguodala's defense, Bryant didn't feel discouraged or fear him. Instead, the Black Mamba took it a step further.
So, uh, it was a win for Iggy once again, right?
