Some background information for those of you unfamiliar with the situation: it's been rumored for a few days that there's a Koke a video that a couple of guys shot in which he badmouths the Lakers organization and Andrew Bynum. Well it's finally been confirmed that it's real and it should be relased soon. Right now the people with the video are trying to get some money out of it but insist it will be released soon. Once it does, it'll start appearing on ESPN. Here's a couple of now known quotes from the video:





While the conversation was purported to have lasted approximately 15 minutes, the video is brief. It was taken with a digital camera and leaves no doubt that it is in fact Bryant.

Interspersed with numerous cuss words, Bryant discusses the Lakers' decision not to trade Andrew Bynum to the New Jersey Nets at the trade deadline in February.

"Ship his [rear end] out. We're talking Jason Kidd," said Bryant. "They didn't want to do that. That's why we're in this [messed up] position."

The footage was shot in early June, close to the date when Bryant went on numerous radio stations to express his unhappiness in the team's direction . . . and ultimately demand a trade.

In addition to the video the group has an audio clip captured on a cell phone on June 10th.

Bryant is approached with the query, "Please tell us you're staying!"

His response: "Get a [Chicago] Bulls uniform fellas."

I would love to see Kobe in Chicago. It would give me a reason to go watch a Bulls game.

LOL. Only a Knicks fan could even try and say something like this seriously and not laugh.

How about paying $30 million for Jerome James, who in his best season averaged 4 points and 3 rebounds per game.

The Knicks are one of the worst teams in the league with a $125 million payroll.

$55 million for Eddy Curry, who has an irregular heartbeat and is uninsurable by the NBA.

Should I keep going?
