Kobe Bryant Tells John Wall to Buy Nikes

Enjoying that #1 overall pick contract, the instant star-treatment, and the signature shoe line – you couldn’t tell John Wall nuthin’. That is, unless, you’re five-time NBA Champion Kobe Bryant. John Wall, who has missed a third of his first NBA season thus far, will be sitting out tonight’s match-up against the Lakers. Kobe Bryant isn’t new to injury, but he’s shown an unmatched resolve when it comes to playing through pain, so when asked for a piece of advice for the ailing John Wall, Kobe Bryant said “Buy Nikes”. Brevity is certainly the soul of wit, but perhaps Kobe was just sending a few playful jabs in Wall’s direction. Nevertheless, Kobe will be out there tonight and Wall will be nursing his knee like a 73-year-old geriatric, so let us know what you think of Kobe’s comments after the jump. via MichaelLee.
