I'm willing to give him a shot next year. You seem to think Kobe can't play with anyone, or his ego is too big. Bottomline, the guy wants to win. Give him some players that can help him and he'll win. They do not need a point guard, they need another viable scoring option, and Garnett is that. Odom is not, Chris Mihm is not, Bynum is not, Kwame is not.


1. I have no idea what this means
2. Then Kobe is stupid.

How the heck is Farmar going to be allowed to be a PG when he is always running away from Kobe trying to get out of his way? I seriously dont think Kobe can let any PG develop. This is one of my main points. Thats why I personally believe you have to bring in someone he trusts. Who would he trust to get the ball to him... Oh maybe Nash and Kidd. Thats about it. If a guy like Chris Paul had come on the Lakers, he would have experienced misery. A guy like Williams on Utah, he would not be on the floor enough or have the ball enough to gain confidence. I would never put a young promising PG with Kobe, ever.

True story from yesterday. My friend and I are roaming around and run into Kwame Brown and Jordan Farmer, at different times. Here are parts of both conversations. Hope the language doesn't get edited here.

W/Kwame Brown
My friend: Kwame, what happened this season with u guys?

Kwame: It was just crazy. Nobody really got along all year.

Me: So all the rumors are true and there is no chemistry on this team?

Kwame: Well, there is some but mostly with the scrubs like Rony, Sasha and those guys. They get along great but not the main players.

Me: What about Kobe? He's always talking all that "my guys" **** but then we always hear about him going off on people.

Kwame: Man **** Kobe. I want to kick his ass. Like one time, we were in the huddle at halftime in the hallway right outside the locker room. Everyone is in the huddle getting amped up for the second half. Kobe's punk ass wouldn't join in. Then somebody said "come get in Kobe". Kobe said "I'm not getting in there with ya'll punk bitches." Then Lamar was like "man, come on". Kobe said it again "I told ya'll I'm not getting in there with ya'll punk bitches." So we were just like "**** it, he's bitchin up again" and we kept on going. Then at the end we were like "1-2-3 defense" then when we broke and started running on the court, Kobe jumped right in the middle like he was right with us.

My friend: Are u serious?

Kwame: Yeah man. I wanted to beat the **** out of him but I know if I do that, my career is over.

So we talk about a bunch of other things then we have to leave. About 30 minutes later, we run into Jordan Farmar. Now I've talked with Jordan a few times cause he's my friend's godson. So I know I can joke with him a little.

Me: Damn, I thought Kenny Smith said ya'll were gone fishing.

Jordan: **** u.

Me: Nah. If I'm gonna **** a dude, it's not gonna be one that was in the D-League a month ago.

Jordan: In the D and still pulling more women than u.

Me: Is the whole team gonna be up here today?

Jordan: What u mean?

My friend: We just saw your boy Kwame a while ago.

Jordan: Man, that's not my boy. That's a weak ass bitch.

My friend: Damn, why u call him that?

Jordan: Dude is always hurt. He can't even make it through practices without complaining about something. Always. Stomach aches, toothaches, ankle, foot, shoulder. Always something. During games, we sit on the bench and take bets on when he's gonna get hurt. I always take the second quarter.

Me: I guess that's why Phil was saying that at some point Kwame has to suck it up and decide how much he really wants to play.

Jordan: Kwame doesn't want to play at all. He just wants to get money and get women.

Me: So u don't like him?

Jordan: I mean, dude is alright. I don't hate him but damn, get some heart.

My friend: He said that ya'll can't stand Kobe.

Jordan: U know what? Kwame is a weak ass bitch but he's telling the truth about Kobe. Don't nobody like that dude.

I doubt Kwame could whip Kobe's ass, but that's just a guess on my part

true story:

i was once in the men's room at caesar's palace las vegas (the one down the escalator in the middle) and magic johnson came in and took a piss in the urinal right next to me.

i didn't say a word to him.

it's not much of a story. i ran upstairs and told all my friends. they wanted to know if i checked his junk out. so gay.

i know this isn't all that interesting but i rarely have celebrity encounters and this seemed like the right time and place to recount it.

plus, this is what really happens when most of us run into someone famous.

He probably appreciated the lack of pestering during a good tinkle.

So I will give you an equally bad story. Our AAU girls basketball team was on the way back from a tournament in Las Vegas, stop over in Phoenix, and there is Tony Parker (the entire team is from San Antonio). So of course our entire team rushes the poor guy just sitting waiting for a flight with his ear phones in. I was practically tackling girls trying to keep them away from him and the parents said awww let em go. I said good Lord the poor guy is away from San Antonio, no one is pestering him and we show up. I just walked away, I could not stand to see the carnage.
Apparently he signed their shirts. All the moms were mad at me... the moms...desperate flippin housewifes.
