Kobe Bryant in Manila

Mabuhay!

I have to thank Nike Philippines for sending me tickets to watch Kobe Bryant in Araneta Coliseum!

My friends and I were suppose to watch KB yesterday but Tom had a back injury so I had to cancel. I gave my tickets to my BFF, Lounell and some of our Azkal friends, Simon and Nate. Yes, friends na kami! Haha!

Thanks Lounell for taking photos and "reporting" on my behalf!

Pasok, Lounell!

First of all, thanks Jen for the tickets!

Basketball Megastar Kobe Bryant of the Los Angeles Lakers invaded Manila once again as he made his first stop for his Kobe Asian Tour 2011 for Nike.

After a visit to the Nike Manila Flagship Store at the Fort, Kobe and his entourage proceeded to another event with the Gawad Kalinga kids in Taguig, then headed straight to Araneta Coliseum for his basketball clinic with the Smart Gilas Team and the UAAP All-Stars.

Bianca Gonzales and Boom Gonzales were hosts for the Nike Araneta Event.

Kailangan may production number! LOL!

Smoke effects... enter: Kobe Bryant!

Shot from the nosebleed bleechers. Haha!
Kobe being interviewed by Bianca and Boom. According to KB, he loves the Philippines so much he wishes to return soon!

There was a short game by the UAAP All-Stars Team vs the Smart-Gilas Team

It was a good 10-minute game but people came to see Kobe, so everyone were chanting, “KOBE! KOBE! KOBE!”

After 10 minutes, Kobe suited up to play with them for another 10 minutes! Woohoo!

Kobe sores!

It was quite amazing to see Kobe playing with our local players -- he was a very "giving" player, not hogging the limelight ever chance he gets.

A jam-packed Araneta Coliseum! And as you would say, Kylie levelz!

Again, Kobe scores!

Kobe is scheduled to leave today (Thursday) for Seoul and continue his Kobe Asian Tour.
