Apparently, that's how it works, as Spike Lee was in the locker room following around Kobe for what I believe is a behind the scenes documentary he's making.  Either that, or Bryant's doing an extremely elaborate screen test for "The Inside Man II: More Men Inside".  The filmmaker (who's done great work on the previous docu's 4 Little Girls and When the Levees Broke) was scurrying about the area, bumping fists with Sasha Vujacic and DJ Mbenga, giving Kobe a quick hug as 24 headed to the restroom, then following his subject into the trainer's room.  I asked Sasha if he planned on also being featured in the flick.  Nah, he's just looking for a supporting role in a tale that involves the Lakers and a #1 seed.  "That would be a good story," smiled Vujacic.  Later, as I walked back into the locker room after hearing Greg Popovich address the media, Spike and crew streaked past me in a hurry, with the Knicks loyalist declaring, "It's Kobe stretching!" 

With all due respect to Lee, I've seen Kobe stretch before and I'm not sure I'd describe the sight as "riveting."  But maybe the scene change after Spike adds the CGI monsters.
