Kobe Bryant made waves on January 4th when he finally joined Twitter, and the Black Mamba has amassed nearly 900,000 followers since. Meanwhile, on January 16th, in a slightly less ceremonious occasion, former NBA forward and fan favorite Brian Scalabrine (aka, White Mamba) also joined Twitter. He’s gained a respectable amount of followers so far (46,500), while having some fun at the expense of those who dared to poke fun at his career.

First a nice introduction:

Held out longer than the Black Mamba….Brace yourselves, the White Mamba is in the building. #MambaTweets

— Brian Scalabrine (@Scalabrine) January 16, 2013

Next, he’s pumped to watch his two favorite former teammates, Kevin Garnett and Joakim Noah, go at it on Friday night:

Can’t wait to see 2 of my favorite teammates KG and Jo battle it out tonight. Imagine if they were on the same team. CRAZY ENERGY

— Brian Scalabrine (@Scalabrine) January 18, 2013

Now, here’s the real reason why he probably started the account. Some Boston-area ballers thought they could compete with an NBA player one-on-one. Based on the preview, there may have been a few regrets on their part.

So what is the #Scallenge u ask? A bunch of local clowns thought they could beat me in hoops. A preview of what ensued csnne.com/basketball-bos…

Ultimately, you can’t spend almost an entire NBA career at the end of the bench and not have a sense of humor about it…

“@stormmensing: @scalabrine>@kobebryant White Mamba>Black Mamba” At what? Celebratory high fives?

— Brian Scalabrine (@Scalabrine) January 18, 2013

…see:

“@ctakacs28: @scalabrine how many minutes you average?” About as much time as you spent with your girl last night. 2.3 minutes

— Brian Scalabrine (@Scalabrine) January 19, 2013

Oh, and he’d like to remind everyone that there’s only one White Mamba.

“@sun_e_d92: @scalabrine what are your thoughts on @bscalabrine24‘s tweets? I’m the only white mamba that you should be following.

— Brian Scalabrine (@Scalabrine) January 19, 2013

You got it, Scal. You can watch the White Mamba take on various Beantown scrubs on CSN New England January 22nd, 23rd and 24th.
