He wants to win, says a source close to Lakers decision makers. But only as long as hes the reason were winning, as long as the performance is not affecting his numbers. No one works harder than Kobe. And no one sabotages his own efforts more. Hes scaring off the free agents were trying to get. Were trying to surround you with talent and your ego is getting in the way. I dont even know where to begin with this! Damning quotes from agents with players on the Lakers, front office execs, etc. NO SUPERSTAR WANTS TO PLAY WITH KOBE. #BlameKobe This has been well known for many years, but this article is a nail in his reputation coffin. I would love for Kobe lovers to admit whats accepted reality within the NBA, but as Keith Brinker reminded me, you cant talk sane to crazy. They cant and wont hear it, so accepting and admitting aint happening. They confuse his personal greatness and Hall of Fame career, with his personality and his awful behavior as a terrible teammate/leader. No one is disputing how good he is. Hes amazingly great.
