[QUOTE=bdreason]You can get from John Wayne to LAX in 30 minutes unless it's primetime. It probably takes him that long to park, and get in and out of the chopper.[/QUOTE]
why would he go from john wayne to lax?
im sure he is going to a private place to get on the chopper and fly to downtown la. even when he takes it to practice, im sure there is another helipad over by all the buldings on nash street closer to the facility.

[QUOTE=gyu]Maintaining the helicopter + paying the pilot >>>> owning a car
Of course Kobe is insanely rich so money is not an issue, but once he starts declining and get paid significantly less he'll start feeling the effects.[/QUOTE]
What's Kobe Bryant worth... My guess is that when he starts declining and is paid significantly less, no one will come and take away all of the money he's already made throughout his career, so chances are he'd still be able to afford the pilot and the helicopter maintenance.

Well Dwight Howard flies to every game.

Well you can see he's flying in an R44, which costs about $300000. Maybe he bought a used one for a lower price hah.

Its always primetime on the 405. How many times have you driven there in 30 minutes, lol.
But he's not going to LAX. He's going to downtown L.A. BIG DIFFERENCE.
Re: Kobe uses a personal helicopter to travel from his home to Staples center every day
If he's got the money and wants to save time going to work, more power to him I say.
Though I somehow suspect that taking the helicopter to work is slightly more dangerous than going by car.

[QUOTE=DukeDelonte13]I hate traffic. That's why I could never live in NY or LA. 25 minutes versus 3 hours because of traffic? F that.[/QUOTE]
I can't speak for LA but the vast majority of cars driving or parked in NYC at any given time are owned by those who do not live in the city. People who live in Manhattan especially either take the Metro/Bus if they're normal people or have drivers if they are the top elite class.
Plus, I heard Boston traffic is no walk in the park either.
