kobe is a selfish player, and he's been good enough to ignore his downside, but what he's done reminds me of when jordan was here with the wizards.... player/gms don't work. EVER. Jordan got a coach for him personally and kinda called the shots, came in and started yelling at the team for not being as good as what he was used to...
kobe has made sure to piss off and disagree with the coach and shaq enough to make them leave... posioning the well will come back to haunt him, just like it did to jordan... as soon as the winning stops, everything explodes
