Kobe Bryant could only manage to play nine minutes before checking out of Wednesday's Heat-Lakers game for the rest of the night, but Bryant was in good spirits in his post game press conference. After the Lakers prevailed in overtime thanks to a game-winner from Julius Randle, Dwyane Wade crashed Kobe Bryant's meeting with the media at Vanessa Bryant's request.

Bryant responded with an excellent burn.

That's not entirely accurate. Wade is 34, and will turn 35 in the middle of the 2016-17 season, but he's still a young man compared to Andre Miller (40), Tim Duncan (39), Kevin Garnett (39) and Manu Ginobili (38). Some of the NBA's eldest players are expected to retire this offseason, but Wade should be safe for a few more years.
