As you may have heard before, Kobe Bryant once scored 81 points on the Toronto Raptors. Not only is it the second-most points ever scored in an NBA game, but it's one of the most memorable games in NBA history.

Well, memorable for everyone besides Jalen Rose, that is. The current ESPN analyst would very much like to forget that day ever happened. Unfortunately, Kobe was all too eager to remind him in a hilarious new commercial. Seriously, it's so great.

OK, so it starts with Rose looking at his phone as he walks through a restaurant, when he hears Bryant call out, "Jalen!" He turns and gives a very fake smile and greeting and the two retired players start a little small talk. Rose asks Bryant if he saw something about his stat sheet on Twitter, and Bryant lies, saying he "doesn't pay attention to stuff like that."

But then a waiter interrupts them, and asks Kobe what he would like to drink, and the Mamba asks for a vodka martini. As for how many olives he wanted ... well, I think you can guess the number.
