<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Kobe Bryant said Monday he left without speaking to reporters after Sunday's loss to the Seattle SuperSonics because he was frustrated with his performance. Bryant, who is averaging 35 points a game, made only eight of 29 shots in the 120-113 defeat at Staples Center and finished with 22 points. He missed three three-point attempts in the final minute. I was just upset at myself for missing those shots," Bryant said before a late-afternoon workout. "I had a tough time sleeping last night." Bryant was asked about bumping teammate Sasha Vujacic on the bench. "Oh, so what," Bryant said. "Give me a break. This is really silly. I mean if people are out there saying negative stuff about me trying to get a player pumped up or whatever?. I don't think they showed on TV the very next time out me putting my arm around him and encouraging him to continue to be aggressive. I don't think they put that on TV." With center Chris Mihm out indefinitely because of an ankle sprain, Kwame Brown will move back into the starting lineup tonight at Sacramento. The revitalized Kings have a 32-31 record and have not lost at home since acquiring Ron Artest in late January.</div> Source
All the idiots that say "Kobe is teh ballhogz" or whatever crap they come out with should read this. He's clearly matured as he's seen the faults in his game lately. The media will always stirr things up, Sasha knows what Kobe done and thats all that matters.
