Increase funding for education? No…its in the works, though. Create better and more cost efficient opportunities for our plagued health care system? Not yet, but eventually. The first thing she is going to do is put a Presidential beatdown on Monica Lewinsky…while whistling “Damn It Feels Good To Be a Gangsta!” Hell hath no fury like a woman president scorned!! Sorry Kobe…81 points ain’t s*** to that potential ass whoopin.

You think Kobe changes his accent when he does a press conference with an Atlantic Division team as opposed to a Southeast Division team? Was Hilary carping for a trade of Harry Reid? How ironic was it that Buss got that DUI after the first round of Kobe trade talk? You think he heard about it and went and got ripped afterwards? Just wondering.

June 20, 2007
When are you finally going to get it?
When are you Lakers fans finally going to realize that Kobe Bryant doesn’t like you nearly as much as you like him?
When are you going to get it into your painfully loyal souls that Bryant has taken everything you believe about him, casually wadded it up and tossed it on the floor as he heads out of town?
You’re not his soul mate, you’re his sweat towel.
He has trivialized your loyalty, toyed with your faith and trampled on your tradition.
And still you beg the Lakers not to trade him?
When are you finally going to get it?
Bryant just doesn’t want to leave the Lakers, he wants to leave you.
You, the guy from El Monte who spends his tax refund on a one-tenth share of an upper-bowl season ticket? Bryant has publicly and repeatedly devalued your investment.
You, the woman from Torrance with the oversized No. 24 jersey? Bryant has publicly and repeatedly damaged the credibility of that uniform.
And, you, the Riverside father and son who can’t afford tickets but cheer for all the Lakers on television? Bryant has publicly and repeatedly ripped those players.
You say you love Bryant because he is entertaining.
What has happened in the last several weeks is not good entertainment. Blowing up the family car in anger over a sputtering engine is not good entertainment.
At this moment, Bryant is not Magic Johnson, he is Paris Hilton. He is not Jerry West, he is Lindsay Lohan.
He is not the old show-time Hollywood, he is the new spoiled Hollywood, and again I ask, this is entertainment?
You say you love Bryant because he is a winner.
Leveling your organization is not the move of a winner. Whining and crying publicly for a trade that will force the Lakers into accepting something less than full value is not the actions of a winner.
Tim Duncan quietly allowing a tiny little dude from France to win the NBA Finals MVP, that is the move of a winner.
Dwyane Wade’s quiet acceptance of Shaquille O’Neal to the Miami Heat, that is the move of a winner.
Three years after being anointed as the solution, Bryant has decided instead to be the problem, and I ask, this is a winner?
The latest Bryant news would be funny, if it weren’t so sad.
Just like those women who show their private parts to paparazzi, Bryant has profanely ripped the Lakers to two strangers in a parking lot.
The two guys videotaped the rant on a digital camera that doubles as a video recorder, and they are now trying to sell access to the alleged tape for a couple of bucks a pop.
“It’s fair game, him talking to people in the middle of the street,” said Rob, one of the parking lot guys.
Rob, who refused to give his last name, played the tape for me over the phone Tuesday night.
Yeah, it sounded like Bryant. Yeah, it was short but nasty.
Two things come to mind here.
First, why would anybody pay to hear Bryant rip the Lakers when he’s spent the last month doing it for free?
Two, if Bryant hates the Lakers so badly that he would trash them to bystanders in a parking lot, do you really think he should be running the team on the court?
All of which leads to the one question that has been as persistent and peculiar as Bryant’s mouth.
Why do Lakers fans still love him?
“After the recent mediocre seasons, Kobe is all they have left,” said Dr. Todd Boyd, a USC professor of critical studies who has written extensively on sports and culture. “He has a Hollywood game. He is a Laker in every sense of the word. The prospects of him not being here is just too depressing.”
It’s startling, indeed, how Lakers fans are willing to forgive Bryant for a petulance that was never this bad in O’Neal. It’s amazing how they are willing to forget every odd twist to his unsettling career here for a chance to watch him take one more shot.
The second half of the late-season game in Sacramento. The fourth quarter of the playoff game in Phoenix. The practice fights, the Karl Malone phone calls, the Phil Jackson expose.
And, of course, Colorado.
“What’s amazing is how he’s rehabilitated his image since Colorado,” Boyd said. “Here in Los Angeles, it’s like it never happened. Some people in other parts of the country remember, but not here.”
Think about it. Counting his latest tirades, Bryant’s career hasn’t been that much cleaner than Allen Iverson’s.
“Allen Iverson’s past is never that far behind him,” Boyd said. “But it’s like Kobe gets a free pass.”
Boyd acknowledged that, in this case, part of the reason for Bryant’s support is that fans agree with him. And so do I. The Lakers have made some awful moves in trying to surround him with players that can win.
“A lot of fans feel like, hey, Kobe is right, and he is right,” Boyd said. “But, see, these problems he talks about, he is partly responsible for them.”
And that’s where the dichotomy lies.
It has been reported here that Bryant recently met with Lakers owner Jerry Buss in Spain and reiterated his desire to be traded.
Three summers ago, Buss was also in Europe during a tumultuous time for the Lakers. What if Bryant had met with Buss then? What if he had used that meeting to promise that he could play with O’Neal?
Buss never would have traded O’Neal. The dynasty would have been intact for at least one, if not two more seasons.
While Bryant didn’t cause this mess, he certainly didn’t do anything to prevent it. And now that he has chosen to damage it beyond repair, it is time he leave it.
You will miss him. But, clearly, he won’t miss you.

Shiz says:
watching someone blowing up the family car over a sputtering motor is DAMN funny…that’s entertainment in its highest form…even more entertaining is this guys theory that if Kobe had agreed to play nice, Shaq wouldn’t have been traded…Um…right, like a 7 foot mountain of a man screaming TRADE ME!! isn’t enuff incentive…The Kobe hateration (up in this dancery) is becoming more and more cliche… every long winded “I-hate-Kobe-and-so-should-you” diatribe sounds like the last…Man, wake me up when its time to clown Jay Bilas on draft night…Hating on Dukies never gets tired.

You will miss him. But, clearly, he won’t miss you.” So Buss would’ve resigned Shaq at $20-30 mil per if Kobe said that they could get along, even though SHAQ HIMSELF said that he believes Kobe’s assertion that Shaq was being traded because of the money? And let’s not forget that their relationship was mutually contentious, would Shaq have done the same for Kobe? Don’t think so. Why would anyone lobby to keep a teammate who hates them and is overshadowing them? And how many people are going to repeat that drivel? It makes NO sense. Okay, Kobe is a prick. So was Jordan. Anyone would trade for either of them in a heartbeat. There’s plenty of players in this league who suck and are pricks.

One more, just for Chuckaz, cause that free pass line has me dying here. I read that sh*t last night, but didnt realize how funny it was til this morning. Doesn’t anyone remember how this whole fiasco started? Kobe doesn’t even get a free pass within his own franchise. They made him the scapegoat for the Shaq trade and then when he publicly call them liars on national TV they didnt even deny it! Doesnt anyone find this even slighty peculiar? The only thing Kobe is guilty of is talking too much, his reasons for wanting out are still perfectly legitimate.

Good stuff about Kobe, I guess. What’s up with all this trade talk stuff, I mean the Lakers had a chance to get Jason Kidd at the trade deadline but passed on it cause Andrew Bynum scored 10 plus points in two straight games right before the deadline so I guess that was enough to keep on the squad. Its like this instead of trading Kobe wouldn’t be easier to build around him even if they have to part Lamar Odom, Kwame Brown, and or somebody else named Smush. There aren’t too many teams out there that won’t take Odom, how many 6′10″ cats in the association can drop 16 or more on any given night to go along with 9 plus rebounds and not to mention 5 dimes. Instead of trading Kobe got get Jermaine O’Neal while he is still in his prime or something.!?

Ray Allen: kind of quiet but honest as hell!

Jun.20 at 9:42 pm

Wow, J. Oneal in his prime? maybe just past and why trade for Kidd for the next two years of good production when Bynum might turn into something pretty damn good for many years to come! you gotta go young right now and think of the future, not just the present!

Jun.20 at 9:46 pm

Holiday says:
There will alway’s be guy’s that wanna play for the Lakers, they should try and sign Billups and trade Odem, and Kwame for Marion! or try for KG, or Gasol! I know not exactly young but still got some years in front of them! maybe even sign Lewis!

Tony shoulda put that Assault jumpoff he went to sleep with to work on Phil’s crew.

Im really getting sick of these NBA writers…like reallly sick. I understand that the NBA has been sucking recently and they need some sort of drama to keep people reading the junk they write…but you dont have to throw the most skillful player today under the bus. This is the same player whos helping the league stay interesting and helping the writers get that paycheck every month. Stop writing about his offcourt activities, his personal life, little gossips here and there, and for the love of god stop writing flat out lies to help your point. Colorado? He got acquitted. Shaq? The GM didnt wana pay him and KObe hadnt even signed for LA when he met up with Buss. His teammates? They are stupid, lazy, and unskilled - the worst combination in basketball, they deserved to be yelled at. Kobe asking for a trade? LA organization tries to blame Kobe for something they did. They lie to him about building a championship team now. They place him around NBDL rejects. Of course he wants out! Seriously if I see one more Paris Hilton comparison….NBA writers: people read your stuff because they like basketball. If they want gossips and junk like that, they can pick up a tabloid magazine. Shame on all the basketball writers who have no insights on the game of basketball and have to resort to ridiculing a basketball legend to keep their readers interested. PS: THis is isnt aimed at SLAM, because at least when they do it, they do it in a lighthearted way.

Firstly, I am not a Kobe fan. Never will be. I follow the Magic (yeah, yeah I know), all the way from Australia. I admire Kobe as a player (does that have a double meaning…) but theres something about him that’ll never get me to say he’s a favourite. That said… He’s right. He’s trying to win now. If your team is in the playoffs, you should be tinkering with your team in order to take them to the FINALS. So what if Bynum is going to be good in 10 years?? Kobe will look older than Oden in 3 if he has to wait that long for some legitimate help. Should they have traded for J Kidd? For sure, but they shouldn’t have stopped there. They need a legitimate 2nd scorer to play off Kobe, JO might be that guy. Again, that still probably won’t be enough. But thats the thing, they should be making moves to make the Lakers relevant. True, Kobe is all about the fame and glory, and he might not care about the fans, but at least he wants to win. Thats ultimately what the Laker fans want too, to win a championship. He’s acting like a (very rich) baby right now, but you can see where he’s coming from with all of this.
Now, if only the Magic could trade for him or Durant…

Hey, look, another one…
By Sally Jenkins
Washington Post
Monday, June 4, 2007
You had to feel for Kobe Bryant, sitting around in his gated, solitary life, crying, “What about me?” on the telephone to radio jockeys, while LeBron James proved himself the greater player, not to mention the better man. The ascent of James and the descent of Bryant was a fascinating subtext in the NBA playoffs last week, and it couldn’t be more obvious why their careers are going in opposite directions. One guy holds his team together, while the other guy divides his. One guy builds his franchise up. The other guy — make no mistake about it — has torn his down.
Bryant is now 28 years old, and he should hope to be LeBron James when he grows up. That was the verdict after watching the 22-year-old James’s revelatory, forehead-smacking performance as he carried the Cleveland Cavaliers to their first NBA Finals. Interestingly, James’s scoring was almost ornamentation; his points didn’t express the critical totality of his play against the Detroit Pistons over six games. His 48 points in Game 5 was a feat for the ages, but it was his ability to accept less, while raising others up, including young Daniel Gibson, whom he urged to a career high in Game 6, that was the difference in the series.
James is not the most elegant player who ever lived, but he has a pleasing quality called inner grace. He is unselfishness personified. He radiates a kind of integrity because he does something almost nobody does anymore: He takes blame just as easily as he takes credit, and he talks in the plural instead of about himself. “I’ve always believed in us,” James said. All of which makes you want to grab Bryant, point at James and say: “There, see? That’s a great player.”
There’s a language the true greats speak, and you know it when you hear it. It’s the language of personal responsibility. James doesn’t sulk or accuse others of undermining him when he fails. He just says, “I’ve got to get better.”
The Cavaliers won just 17 games when James was drafted four years ago, but he’s never once railed at management for losses, or at his critics for his weaknesses. Instead, he has kept his mouth shut and improved perceptibly each season. The last remaining question about him competitively was whether he could carry a team on his back.
That was answered definitively when he scored 29 of his team’s last 30 in Game 5. But anyone who watched the Detroit series will remember it as much for his sword waving, “into the breach” rallying of his teammates, as for his individual heroics. Perhaps the statistic that says the most about James is his career average of 8.3 assists per game in the playoffs — without being surrounded by A-list talent.
Game 6 was all about handling frustration when he was shut down as a scorer. Blanketed by the Pistons, and just 3 for 11 from the field, he restrained himself and didn’t force. Instead, he grabbed 14 rebounds, doled out another eight assists and got himself to the free throw line, formerly an embarrassing weakness, where he sank 14 of 19.
“Everybody keeps asking for more, and he is a willing guy,” Cavaliers Coach Mike Brown said. “He just keeps giving us more.”
While James was giving more, Bryant was demanding more. More attention, more support, more consideration from Lakers management and, finally, a trade. Bryant’s performance during this season, in its own way, was every bit as career defining as James’s was on the court.
Meantime, the pattern of Bryant’s career is now clear: Whenever he is caught looking like the bad guy or perpetrates a controversy, which is often, he cries that he’s a victim. The most freakishly talented scorer in the league is, incontrovertibly, a wretched teammate. Consider Bryant’s performance in the Lakers’ last game of the season, a first-round loss to Phoenix. He shot 13 for 33, with one assist and six turnovers. The Lakers have not won so much as a single playoff series since Bryant became their lone go-to player, after he helped engineer the departure of Shaquille O’Neal in 2004.
What was most striking about Bryant’s intrusion on the airwaves during the climactic Cleveland-Detroit finish was just how glowering and dark-hearted he seemed. This was more than just a petulant outburst or another veiled attempt by Bryant to wield his power to fire someone, although it was both of those things. It was really an uncontrolled cry of frustration from someone who seems to have no conscious clue that his problems are internal as well as external.
Bryant has reason to be upset about the state of the Lakers, but there’s no question he was a full participant in their destruction as a championship team. His behavior this week proves it. In the course of the week, Bryant suggested the Lakers bring back Jerry West as a consultant, a move that would emasculate General Manager Mitch Kupchak, and went into a rage when the Los Angeles Times quoted a clubhouse source that it was “Bryant’s insistence on getting away from Shaquille O’Neal that got them in this mess.” Bryant furiously laid the blame on owner Jerry Buss and asked for a trade, saying he has “trust issues” with the team.
The fact is, Bryant fights with everybody. He has had disagreements with teammates Karl Malone and O’Neal. He’s fought more subtly with Phil Jackson, Kupchak and Buss. He had an especially seamy disagreement with a young woman in Eagle, Colo., over whether he sexually assaulted her. And he was suspended one game this season for his habit of flagrantly throwing elbows at any opponent who gets the best of him — to which he responded with cries that he’s unfairly persecuted.
The sad thing for Bryant is that, without a personality graft, he may be incapable of experiencing what James has these last couple of games. The obvious devotion to teammates has multiplied James’s satisfaction in winning, times five. James is young, so he still has plenty of time to let success corrode him, to become a malcontented narcissist. Bryant is also still young enough to turn the Lakers around and become a constructive influence again.
But until either happens, here is the difference between the two men: People have to play with Bryant; they want to play with James.

I was really surprised they were even coming to Minneapolis, I thought I might have to go to Chicago to see it. Has there ever been a better lineup? Cause I honestly cant remember one. Except maybe one of Jigga’s 2,725 farewell concerts. And I’ve been giving Kobe the Rodman treatment for a while now, as long as he does that vodoo he does so well in that 94 x 50 frame, I could care less about anything else. Basketball is the only reason I care about ANY of these guys anyway, so I try not to stray from that. Unless I hate them.
