    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Life could hardly be much better for Kobe Bryant, who was a notable absentee from Los Angeles Lakers practice Monday following the birth of his second child.

    Bryant, whose jumper on the buzzer lifted the Lakers to a dramatic 99-98 overtime win and 3-1 lead in their first-round playoff series with the Phoenix Suns Sunday, <font color=""Red"">will rejoin his team mates in Phoenix on Tuesday</font>.

    "I told him not to worry about that, to come when he can and get the rest he needs," Lakers coach Phil Jackson told reporters at the team's El Segundo training facility.


    "Hopefully he'll get there tonight. If not, he'll shoot around tomorrow."

    Bryant's wife Vanessa gave birth to a daughter earlier on Monday.

    "The arrival of our new daughter Gianna early this morning is such an incredible blessing for me and my family," husband Bryant, 27, said in a statement.

    "We are all full of beautiful emotions after such an incredible day."

    Kobe is such a ballhog, and then he misses practice. What a selfish cancer.

    Please take a page out of Iverson's book and treat us all with a "Practice?" speech.

    The funny thing is that even Kobe's kid's birth overshadows Shaq's kids birth in terms of media attention, lol ...

    on a serious note, congrats to them both

    Calm the f*** you stupid Kobe hater. He just had a child... He deserves a day off to be with his wife and family. Stop making something out of nothing. The Laker's organization understands he has family obligations and Phil Jackson even told him not to worry about practice. All you haters are really starting to piss me off. Kobe's has proven himself so much already that you have nothing more to bash him with so you find stupid **** to call him up on. How many practices has Iverson missed? You ever talk about Iverson in such a disrespectful manner? Get a life and get over Kobe Bryant. He's a super star and your words will never bring him down. If this was a joke I still dont care. This thread is a waste...this joke can be blown out of proportion so stop with all the nonsense.

    ^^Lol and people still wonder why other fans have extreme dislike for kobe fans. Honestly do you really think that he was serious? I mean if he is obviously he's an idiot, but i've seen him post, and he's intelligent, so it was a joke. I don't think anyone is honestly going to come in here and say that kobe is an idiot for this, especially after his own coach showed support of his actions.

    One other thing, why does everybody treat these people as if they're living gods or something?

    He's lead his team in assists this entire series, only took 14 shots last game, and hit the game winner....

    yeah what a cancer- the team would be much better without him.
