Did you know, Kobe Bryant is on pace to duplicate a feat accomplished only once before in the history of Basketball? If the Lakers win the NBA championship, which I would have to believed they’ve have to be favored to do seeing as how Boston struggled to be the Atlanta Hawks, Cleveland Cavaliers and are still battling the Detroit Pistons, Kobe would be the most likely recipient of the Finals MVP. Add that to the US Olympic team, of which Kobe is a member, quest for the summer gold in Beijing, Bryant is looking to add to his legend by reaching a plateau to which only Michael Jordan has reached before. That of a regular season MVP, Finals MVP and Olympic gold medalist. Jordan did all 3 in 1992 capturing his second consecutive regular season MVP, captured the Finals MVP in a 4-1 series win over the Portland Trailblazers and then leading the Dream Team to the Gold medal in the Barcelona Olympic Games.
