Kobe Bryant delivered an absolute zinger after his first game back from an Achilles injury last night.

"I think the last time I had eight months off I was still in the womb," he told reporters after the game.

Kobe is one of the hardest-working NBA players ever, so this might actually be true.

In a career filled with amazing quotes, this one has to go straight to the top.

Kobe only scored nine points on 2-of-9 shooting in 28 minutes last night. The Lakers lost to the Raptors 106-94 at home.

It will take him a few weeks to get back into game shape, but it's clear that his mind is as sharp as ever.
