    "Karma" got him 5 championships, unfortunately. If karma actually worked, a lot of jerks wouldn't be half as successful as they are.

    I hadn't watched a video of the injury until just now. I don't like Kobe, have never been a fan but how the hell do you tear your ACL and then walk off the court with very little help, thats just insane.

    Then he answered questions for many minutes, full of personality, laughing. I saw the tape. Maybe it was painkillers.

    Nah, it's not a particular painful injury, it's just that the foot no longer does what it's been told. At least that's how I understand it, I have never torn my ACL.

    It was his Achilles tendon, not his ACL, right?
