In a story written by HoopsWorld.com reporter Eric Pincus, Los Angeles Lakers disgruntled superstar Kobe Bryant is seen on an amateur video ripping his club. According to Pincus who says he has seen the entire video, plus a seperate audio conversation, Bryant in between expletives criticizes the team for not making moves. Bryant mentions a deal that would have sent Andrew Bynum to New Jersey in exchange for Jason Kidd, but says Los Angeles refused to complete the trade. In?a seperate audio conversation, Bryant is reported to have said in?response to Lakers fans asking him to stay with the team? to ?”Get a (Chicago) Bulls uniform fellas.”

Pincus who says he has covered the Lakers for years is convinced both the audio, and the video tapes are legitamately Kobe. The tapes are owned by a group who call themselves the “Kobe Video Guys”, and are reportedly trying to sell the interviews to the highest bidder. The Lakers have not commeneted on these reports. This just the latest episodes in what is truly turning into a melodrama: Kobe and the Lakers; Disintegration of a relationship.
