i hate kobe bryant as a player and as a person - what a total jerk.
he acts like it is beneath him to have to answer the media's questions. same is true of phil jackson, but kobe is just openly defiant and has this attitude that "hey, i'm angry cause we lost, so don't dare ask me a question."
it's one thing to be cocky - it's another thing to have that condescending, i'm-above-all-this attitude that kobe always exhibits.
just like before the series started he gives these answers that "oh, the history of this rivalry is irrelevant to me ....... doesn't mean anything special that we are playing the Celtics or that we are playing the team that beat us badly two years ago."
what a fake, phony, fraud !!
