"Forget cookies, the only thing Kobe Bryant is serving LeBron James is a heaping dose of Black Mamba truth.

Fresh off mocking James for his "woe is being a member of the Miami Heat" pity party, Bryant decided to knock the Chosen One down another peg, two or 10.

Admittedly, Kobe was just verbalizing what we all know he probably thinks every second of every day of every year. But that doesn't make it any less awesome.

Some would look at this and call Bryant arrogant, ignorant and overly audacious—and to an extent, they could be right. I, however, see it as something much different; this is just another one of Kobe's mind games, laced with personal beliefs.

This is the same Bryant who put Carmelo Anthony on a seemingly infallible pedestal prior to their meeting. Are we supposed to believe it is a mere coincidence that he offers such sentiments on the verge of a Los Angeles Lakers and Heat showdown?
