"Right now, Kobe Bryant allows me to coach him," Brown said the other day, and not kiddingly.

[rayjayjohnson]

"I should get an assist for that," Bryant said Wednesday from his car. "It's an intentional pass to oneself, so it's an assist. That way people can't say all I do is shoot."

what a head.

Mind you, some of the article is Kobe just trolling.

It took photographers hours, but they were finally able to capture a Kobe Bryant pass.

Yes, but Kobe, according to ESPN research, you have the highest "usage rate" -- that's the number of possessions a player uses per 40 minutes -- in the NBA. In fact, your usage rate (38.9) would be the highest in the 3-point era of NBA--

--"Yeah," he says. "And I also have five rings."

Yes, but Kobe, stats show that the Lakers are 29-4 when rising star center Andrew Bynum scores 20 points. Shouldn't it be a high priority for you to--

--"That's great. How many of those shots come from me kicking it to him for good looks when I'm being doubled?"

I thought it was a bull article as I was reading some of the quotes in there but its actually legit. Just confirms how big of a self-absorbed, me-first, got Kome is tbh.

I'm sorry, Giuseppe isn't here right now. Would you like to leave a message?

I ran into this article at ESPN and I thought it was a gag article after the first few sentences.


















Nope, that's Kobe.

Bryant believes in shot selection. He selects them all.

ING awesome. Kori, i need you to make me a Laker fan again--Stat

[redzero]

This article was hilarious. Almost like The Onion.

[Ace]

Kobe trolling par the course...

Author got pissed at Kobe's reaction to questions, decided to him up in the article.

Cobbler agrees though:

Never meant to imply that. There is however a point where you bench someones ass or you cant go to him anymore. You toss it to Bynum or Pau or anyone for that matter a they go 1-8 or something you go elswhere. And its up to that player to step up and contribute in other areas. That goes for Kobe as well.

It's not over.

Nobody complains when I shoot 10 times. You don't hear ME complaining when I shoot 10 times. It just depends on the game, you know?"

This happened all of one time time during the 2010-2011 regular season, as well as one time during the 2009-2010 season, and the 2008-2009 season.

The Lakers went 2-1 in those games.

But I guess you can never say never.
