Kobe Bryant might be watching the NBA playoffs from his couch as he recovers from his torn Achilles tendon, but that doesn't mean that the series between the San Antonio Spurs and Los Angeles Lakers is missing any snakes on the floor.

In a pregame interview with NBA TV, Matt Bonner, the red-headed power forward of the Spurs, debuted a "Red Mamba" T-shirt, showing it off to the television audience, knowing that the "Black Mamba" was at home watching.
