Kobe Bryant got bold yesterday during an interview, stating that the current USA Team would edge out the 1992 Dream Team, widely known as the greatest team ever assembled. You can’t blame Bryant for sticking up for his team, but even he sounded rather skeptical of what was coming out of his own mouth.

The ESPY Awards are rewarded to athletes by fan vote through polls, and the fans appear to be done with the LeBron James hate based on the results of the winners on Wednesday night, rewarding James with three different trophies – male athlete of the year, best championship performance and best NBA player.

See how it broke down, along with a lot of official free agent signings in today’s news: Chris Sheridan explains the only way
