If you happened to watch Kobe Bryant‘s special on Showtime earlier this year, you know the Los Angeles Lakers guard is a bit of a night owl. In fact, I’m not sure he ever sleeps because the guy is constantly thinking about basketball.
Almost to a fault.
I mean, we saw Bryant and his wife, Vanessa, shooting baskets in the gym at 4 AM, which is three hours before he apparently decides to text Lakers teammate Jeremy Lin derogatory messages about the season.
Lin, who was thought to be one of the Lakers prized offseason additions last year hasn’t exactly lived up to expectations, which seems to irritate Kobe Bryant who has sent the point guard frustrated texts in the middle of the night.
Lin enters this maze alone. But one such night earlier this season, around 1 in the morning, his iPhone blinked awake with a directive from a teammate who was sleepless in his own way.
I hope you’re absolutely pissed off at the way the season’s going, Bryant wrote.
I’m sure at one point and time, Jeremy Lin couldn’t contain his excitement when Kobe Bryant asked for his phone number. Now he’s probably thinking of changing it because Kobe Bryant is a serial middle of the night texter.
