Kobe wants to leave… except he doesn’t…
LA Lakers star Kobe Bryant told the Lakers that he would like to be traded, calling the team management “a mess”. Literally seconds later (after talking to Lakers head coach Phil Jackson) he changed his mind (… I mean a couple of hours… but technically around 50 000 seconds later…) saying,
“I want to stay here. This is my team. I love it here,
Phil is a guy I lean on a lot. ‘I can’t blame you for feeling this way. But they are now determined to do something. Let us try to figure things out and I’m confident that we can do that.’
I just have to try to stay optimistic. I can only hope that they do something because I don’t want to go no place else.”
Lakers owner Jerry Buss claims that he had not recieved any official statement from Kobe Bryant, and the Lakers will continue to build a team around his fragile ego.
I really don’t get why anyone would want to build a team around someone as confused as Kobe Bryant. I’ve seen bisexuals who are less confused than Kobe Bryant.
Why would you want to put yourself at the whims of a player who has seven NBA records and is considered to be one of the most marketable people in the game as well as having one of the hottest wives around… why?
Oh… Oooooh!
