WELL...considering there is no such thing as a "Yellow Mamba" I would say so...

Not to mention...isn't Kobe the rapist the "Yellow Bellied" Mamba already?

Racial or not, it's just a fricking stupid nickname.

I don't like "Black Mamba" for Kobe, but at least that's a real snake.

If they want to go with a snake meme, try the "banded krait", which is a yellow and black poisonous snake from China.

I totally agree. I also think this kid will be an after thought in about 2 weeks.

Not any worse than calling Brian Scalabrine the White Mamba.

why is it too racial? Who cares? Kobe's black. He's the Black Mamba. Oh no, I must be racist for liking the nickname.

Calling a black person black isn't the same as calling an Asian person yellow.
