Rachel Nichols, Paul Pierce and Brian Windhorst play the "What If?" game with Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant, asking what would have happened if the Lakers had lost the 2009 NBA Finals (either to the Orlando Magic, LeBron James' Cleveland Cavaliers or the Boston Celtics with a healthy Kevin Garnett) and the 2010 NBA Finals (vs. Pierce's Celtics), then discussing how Kobe would be remembered if he had won in 2008 in addition to his other five rings.
