    OT: Bell - "I Have No Respect For Kobe"

    <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">San Jose Mercury News - On Wednesday, Raja Bell called Kobe Bryant "a pompous and arrogant individual. I have no respect for him."

    "When I get hit in the face multiple times you crossed the line with me. That's not basketball," Bell said. "It's a personal thing when someone continually hits you in the face. He tried to bully me."

    Bell went on to say that, "there doesn't seem to be any boundaries or limitations to what he (Bryant) can do to me."

    Comments by Lakers' head coach Phil Jackson also angered Bell. He said that when he complained to an official in the fourth quarter about Bryant's wayward elbows, Jackson told him, "You (expletive-deleted) deserved it."

    "I thought that was kind of bush-league from such a good coach," Bell said. "That was enough for me."</div>

    Also, something else I heard (I guess it was after that ^):

    Bell - "I overreacted on the play"
    Dan Patrick - "Would you have done anything differently?"
    Bell - "No, I would have done it again"

    He certainly deserved to get suspended for 1 game, IMO. Although, I think Bell just messed the Suns up. Bell was actually doing a good job on Kobe.

    Bell is an effin' liar!

    I don't know if it was JUST my eyes, but, I don't even think Kobe hit him in face with his elbow!
