On @br_radio "NBA Sunday Tip," @JeanieBuss on Kobe Bryant: "I look at this season as a celebration of his 20 years with the Lakers."

Bryant has said that he doesn’t want a Derek Jeter-style farewell tour when he hangs it up, but it seems pretty obvious that it’s coming. And for the impact he’s had on the NBA and the sport worldwide, he deserves to take a victory lap regardless of what the Lakers do next season.

Gonna laugh my ass off when he won't retire because of the cap increase

So another lottery season? Sounds good to me

Maybe they'll change the lakers' logo that season to a brick wall

I hope this means he will really retire. I hope he plays well, and stays relatively healthy ...we shall see.

Already too many distractions. This team will miss the playoffs again next year if all they'll focus on is Kobe.

Playoffs? Lakers were never making the playoffs ... stop that. IF Lakers can win 41-445 games that is a good season., no great for this team.
