OF COURSE Kobe Spent Hours Practicing Drinking Games After Luke Walton Taught Him How To Play

As all these Kobe stories are starting to come out, this is up there for one of my favorites. It's just perfect. From Luke Walton teaching Kobe how to play quarters. Of course Bill's son, who went to Arizona, taught Kobe how to play quarters. That was like -500 on the books. But even less shocking is Kobe just spending hours practicing it by himself. You think Kobe would just sit by and let Luke fucking Walton beat him in quarters? I fully expected Kobe to come out like this after a day or two. 

I can't imagine the stories a guy like Walton has with all the time he spent with Kobe. Just hours hanging out, at practice, in the locker room, etc. This is just scratching the surface and as everyone continues to celebrate Kobe's life and remember him, I hope we keep hearing new/different stories like this. 

That said, I need to know just how good Kobe ended up being at quarters. Not only that, was he a good beer pong partner? What was his favorite game? I like to imagine Kobe and Walton just dominating the entire LA scene in pong.
