Kobe would have been 20 and TMac would have been 23 then (depending on the date of that year)

tmac is a year younger than kobe.

Sig is too big and illegal

Kobe looks like he did 1998, he had the fro then
so it's either 1998 or 1990 or at the very latest 2000

it's 100% not 2000. You're going to tell me 4 years later this kid is drafted 1st overall?

So it's 1998 then, or 1999. His shirt says 1998 so it's either one of those.
And man, do you know how fast basketball players that are centers grow when they're like 14? Easy 6+ inches a summer.

Dwight was 18 when he was drafted (born dec 1985, drafted june 2004) so if he was 14 in that pic it would make sense the pic could be 13 years old (13+14=27, dwight's current age)

oh word, though he was '75

lets just all agree that OP is an idiot for making such a confusing topic title

OMFG its not that complicated the pic is From 1998 look at Dwight howards shirt............ that makes dwight 13 so that makes tmac 19 and kobe 20
