I swear I seen Kobe run into a telephone booth, take off his Laker uniform and put on a Superman suit real quick before he went to work. There's no words to express the emotions that I was feeling.

My phone is still ringing. I haven't answered any phone calls because I've got to stay focused.

Kobe is always a factor in the game. I don't think Golden State stopped him from scoring the ball. He just got other guys involved in the offense. It was a game Kobe didn't have to force the game until late.

My points in this game came throughout the game. Usually I have big spurts in quarters either in the first or the second, but tonight it just seemed like my points were spread out through the whole game. We're finally starting to come together and play team defense and start to execute on our offense a lot better.

Just to see them get hurt and run back up there and go down again, they're like Superman.

Excuse me, everybody, I have to go to the bathroom. I really have to telephone, but I'm too embarrassed to say so.
