The five-time NBA champion didn’t forget to mention the message he had for LeBron upon his moving to Los Angeles.

“I talked to him the day it was announced. I said, ‘Welcome to LA, now you’re part of the family. if you ever need anything whatsoever, you know where to find me. I’m right here.’ I was excited for him,” Bryant said.

He was super critical of the vandals who destroyed LeBron’s murals in Los Angeles. “Listen, if you’re a fan of mine, you’re a fan of winning. You’re a fan of the Lakers. I bleed purple and gold. So that’s above anything else, I’ve been a Laker fan since I was yay-high. That’s never going to change. And it’s about winning championships. So, they’ll fall in line,” Kobe said.

What’s the Lakers’ final goal with LeBron James in the frame? Kobe is well aware of it. “I think the goal is to ultimately win championships. No matter where you go, that’s the goal. And that’s his goal, that’s Rob’s goal, that’s Magic’s goal, that’s Jeanie’s goal, Rondo, all the guys.”

Kobe is right. The Lakers have had enough of their “smooth sailing.” It’s time to win championships, and LeBron will sure help them turn their dream into reality.
