I live in Southern California, where people find no fault

with their beloved star Kobe, who was charged with sexual assault.

When he misses a shot, he immediately cries 'FOUL!'

As if him missing a shot, should not be allowed.

Then you have Derek Fisher, so slow and so old.

No point has averaged less assists, in purple and gold.

How about Pau Gasol?  A man of such height!

But he plays like he's made of tissue, much more bark than bite.

Well, what about Odom?  they say he's the best sixth man.

But if the game is physical, tomorrow's headline will read 'He ran!'

And let's not forget 'Crazy.'  You may know him as Artest.

The guy is probably on a dozen medications, but he still acts a mess.

But let's get back to Kobe, the faces he makes are obscene.

but no matter what he does, this year's champs will wear green.

And when the playoffs are all over, he will make a big fuss!

Demand a trade, call his team soft, and throw them under the bus.
