Five minutes with ... Eastern senior guard Bobby Harris

WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE PRO ATHLETE? Kobe Bryant.

WHO IS YOUR FAVORITE PRO TEAM? The Los Angeles Lakers. I've liked them since I was a little kid and always wanted to play for them. Plus, Phil Jackson is a great coach, and they play real well together.

WHAT OTHER SPORTS DO YOU LIKE TO PLAY? I played baseball until ninth grade, and I played football last year, but now I'm just concentrating on basketball.

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO DO FOR A LIVING WHEN YOU GET OLDER? I want to be an accountant, like my dad [Bob].

WHO IS THE HARDEST TEAM TO PLAY AGAINST? Cherokee. They always have a huge fan base cheering for them, and they always put five players out on the court who play real good defense and compete.

IF YOU COULD CHANGE A RULE FOR HIGH-SCHOOL BASKETBALL, WHAT WOULD IT BE? I'd put in a shot clock and make it 35 seconds, just like college.

WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE MEAL? Spaghetti and meatballs.

WHAT IS YOUR ROUTINE ON GAME DAY? When I get home from school, I have a bowl of cereal and then I watch a documentary on Kobe Bryant. I have a lot of them.

WHAT ARE THE GOALS FOR YOUR TEAM THIS SEASON? We'd like to win the conference [Olympic American], win the sectionals [Group 4] and then see how far we could go in the states.

WHAT'S YOUR FAVORITE SUBJECT? Math. I like working with numbers and figuring things out.

SHOULD THE SIXERS HAVE SIGNED ELTON BRAND? No. They are a young, running team. He's getting older and can't run all that well.
