I DON'T LIKE THIS SONG EITHER. I audioswapped the video because trackonerecordings offered me 50 dollars because I would audioswap the video to one of there songs. Who would resist some MONEY? I wouldn't. Kobe doesn't like Pau in Spain Kobe tackles Pau Gasol on purpose and doesn't help him up. This was the 2008 Olympics and they both played in the Lakers at that time. If you ask me, I really didn't like that Kobe did this to his own teammate. It was disrespectful.
