籃球小子三之三
上集提到高比拜仁（Kobe Bryant）被記者追問他是否知道林書豪（Jeremy Lin）。而Kobe在記者的一番追問下，終於說：I'll take a look at it tonight. If he's playing well, I'll just have to deal with him.（我今晚會開始留意佢，如果佢真係咁勁，就放馬過來。)
其實美國的傳媒早就把這段interview放上網給觀眾無限收看，連記者都形容Kobe大敵當前，仍然輕敵：[he was] having a laugh with the media about Jeremy Lin。
輸波才恍悟
不過當New York Knick在翌晚以98比85大勝了LA Lakers之後， Kobe is no longer in the dark（高比就非常清楚誰是林書豪了）。
Kobe在輸波後對Jeremy的評語是：He played extremely well. If that's the way he's been playing these last three or four games, he played phenomenal（極之出色）. We watched tape on him, came up with a strategy we thought would be effective. But knocking down his jump shot, [he was] penetrating and getting past our guards into the paint. It didn't work. Into the paint是籃球用語，在籃球場上的禁區（restricted area）或是我們常說的key，在NBA的球場上是油上了顏色的，所以那個禁區範圍叫做the paint。■岑皓軒 騎呢領隊
