Kobe Bryant Tells Kevin Durant 'Be The Greatest'

Facing off against his idol, Kevin Durant scored 21 points to lead the Oklahoma City Thunder past Kobe Bryant and the Los Angeles Lakers, 120-85. After the game the two friends exchanged shoes and Bryant wrote on the pair he gave to Durant, "To KD: Be the greatest."

Durant was asked about the shoe exchange and told reporters, "Yeah, don't tell nobody though, man. I don't want to be looked at as a softie.”

You have to wonder if Durant and Bryant talked about exchanging shoes when they met for dinner in Oklahoma City on Friday. Either way, they both got some very unique memorabilia for their own homes.
