    http://realgm.com/src_wiretap_archives/427..._lakers_series/<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>East Valley Tribune - Raja Bell is asked about it every day. In fact, it?s a good day when he?s only asked once. Raja Bell and Kobe Bryant. The playoffs. The war of words. The clothesline. The suspension.?It?s unbelievable. I literally get asked constantly,? Bell said. ?I?ll meet people, we?ll start talking basketball and it takes about 10 seconds for it to come up.?It?s beyond old. It?s really old. I?m starting to let people know it?s not a topic I want to revisit.?Bell and Bryant meet up for the first time since the Suns won an epic, seven-game playoff series with the Lakers ? with Bell?s takedown the signature snapshot ? tonight in Las Vegas. Both players will be in the lineup, but the game will be more about sharpening skills than renewing a rivalry. And Bell, for one, hopes it?s a dead issue.?I?m moving past it,? he said. ?I don?t want something like that to define my career. If I look back at that as a bright spot, even though we won, I?ll be disappointed. I want to help my team win a championship, not be the reason they don?t. I was fortunate my guys went out and won without me.?</div>He really F*cked up if that's the way he feels. For the rest of his life, that's what he's gonna be known for (clotheslining Kobe).

    No, he'll be known for being a key part in the dynasty with Amare. :boogie: I've already forgotten about it.

    [​IMG] He deserves to be known as the guy who clotheslined Kobe.

    I don't think of it that much anymore. When it is brought up, I think it is hilarious, but I like to think of Raja more of the really good shooter who saved us in the Clippers series in game 6 (I think it was 6...).
