UPDATE - Kobe out of the playoffs, staying in LA, and still needs attention
17 06 2007Kobe Bryant wanted out of LA.
He talked to Phil Jackson, now he wants to stay.
I’m sure Phil wanted him to stay. You see how quickly Phil bailed out of Chicago when he lost both of his stars there. Leaving them to flounder to a .260 record. That would have killed his now 70.0% winning percentage. (The highest active coach is Avery Johnson at about 77%)
Phil was on his knees, begging, pleading Kobe not to go. If he does, Phil won’t be far behind.
It’s sad with so the performances of so many potentially great young stars in this years playoffs that ‘Showtime’ still has to try and steal the spotlight.
UPDATE -Here it is… the Spurs shining moment. The NBA Championship, and crybaby still needs his name in the headlines.
KOBE GROW UP!

Boy did you ever hit the nail on the head! Kobe Bryant’s stock is falling so fast it almost hurts to watch. And what about Phil Jackson being the coaching guru* **, I guess that train has left the station too. Kobe and Phil can ride each other right out of town and the NBA as far as I’m concerned.
I used to respect Kobe’s skill and work ethic but with his recent trouble with the law and even more recent trouble with his mouth. I have to say I have lost all respect.
Kobe, here is some advice from NBA fan, shut up and play basketball!
Phil you and your championships* ** are old news.
