Kobe comeback? Not happening. Says he will “never come back to the game”

It was the fever dream of a few delusional Lakers fans (fueled by Shaq) — the second star to play with LeBron James for the Lakers would be Kobe Bryant coming out of retirement. Kobe physically couldn't be the same player at the end of his career (everybody loved the 60 point farewell game, but it took him 50 shots to get there), plus Kobe had moved on and won carved out a post-career life for himself, even winning an Oscar. Time to move on from the ridiculous Kobe rumors.
