They were betting on if Kobe makes the shot,Kobe asked, " how much you wanna put on it? I got it.". Then hiT him with the:myman: on the low after it went in.

Gerald Wallace wanted Kobe to shoot with his eyes closed | New York Daily News

With the game on the line Tuesday night and Kobe Bryant at the charity stripe, Wallace began jawing with the Laker great.

What was Wallace talking about?

“I was trying to get him to close his eyes to shoot.”

Now remember, Michael Jordan is famous for hitting a free throw with his eyes closed, and we all know how much Bryant wants to be like Mike. So maybe there was a chance Bryant would play along.

Turns out he would’ve – for a steep price.

“I had to make a big bet,” Wallace said. “So I told him just shoot the free throws.”

There’s no telling what this “big bet” involved, whether it was thousands of dollars, millions, maybe even a car. But Wallace was obviously willing to pay up if it scared him off.

Instead, Bryant converted his full-sight free throws and the Lakers snapped the Nets five-game winning streak, 95-90.
