    ADDRESS: http://exiled.net/~timberwolves/kobe-bryant8.html
    CALLING CARD: Outstanding Action photos and video clips of the young sensation.
    SITE CREATOR: Joe Chapman.
    OVERVIEW: Since Kobe has less than two NBA seasons under his belt, it wouldn't make much sense to focus on career highlights. Instead, Chapman who's a young sensation himself (just 12 years old),wisely focuses on action photos and video clips that justify the hype surrounding the 19-year-old star.
    FROM THE CREATOR: "Kobe is going to be as good as Michael [Jordan] if not better," Says Chapman, who lives in Minnesota. "It seems every time Kobe gets the ball he puts on a move that nobody has ever seen before. He's also a team player who doesn't whine or yell at the refs."
    COOL STUFF: Don't miss the Quick Time videos.Clips two-handed slam off a feed from Nick Van Exel, and a long distance flight over Alonzo Mourning to slam home an offensive rebound off an Eddie Jones miss.
    KEY LINKS: There are a number of links to other Kobe pages, including one maintained by NBA Online. Chapman also links to pages he created featuring local NBA heroes Kevin Garnett and Stephon Marbury.
    ANALYSIS: Hard to believe how young Chapman is when you get a look at this well-organized site. It's clear Joe spent a lot of time on the multimedia presentations that make this site among the most entertaining to visit. If Joe and Kobe keep at it, it could grow to be one of the better homemade pages devoted to an athlete. -Tom Layberger
