Maybe you know this, in case you don't: the reason Kobe can take someone off the dribble and rise up for a jumper

with the v-neck of his jersey in his teeth the entire time and not be impeded is because he is old school in more ways than one: he has not followed the trend of form-fitting uniforms and continues to wear his several sizes too big. (The shifting sands of time, or Everything recycles: old school used to be short and skin-tight; now, as far as the NBA is concerned, over-sized is so yesterday.) I was told that at one time Kobe wore XXXXL, the same size jersey as Shaq -- not sure if that's still the case but he's still going tres baggy.
