As always, Twitter found it's fixations of the week and punched the gas, clowning NBA legend Kobe Bryant for being a maniacal basketball dad. They even took out a little time to highlight a supremely strange dance video that was universally slammed as the blandest.
These are your Tweets of the Week.
The internet went nuts when Kobe Bryant took shots at one of his players for attending a dance recital.

Twitter took the opportunity to go in on Kobe, mocking his coaching skills.

Kobe was surprisingly active on Twitter and Instagram, responding to people who thought his critique of the little girl was a tad harsh.

Twitter's other fascination this week was with a supremely strange dance video that quickly went viral because the entire audience was more confused than enthused.

Some of Twitter couldn't help but laugh at the foolery.
She really braided her hair, flew to Soweto, and put on silk pajamas – to dance in their faces, for the aesthetic… Ew
