Phil Jackson throws the book at Kobe Bryant

Quote
In a new memoir by the former coach, the Lakers' star comes up short in comparisons with Michael Jordan. But it's not all negative.

Interesting!

Is it the book if it's true?   Phil would know, Kobe is no MJ!

I read some of the excerpts on ESPN.com

I don't think it was meant to be negative about Kobe...Just a coach saying how one player had more of this and more of that than the other...and 99% of the readers would probably agree anyway.  Just a writer trying to stir the pot is all, IMO.
