" I saw wherever our president of -- Obama was asked by someone from Associated Press about the Colby. Michael debate who's the better player course our president did not affect the NCAA champion probably picked the Lakers are legal and general ship. So away at -- week he said they Kobe is terrific don't get me wrong but I haven't seen anybody matchup with Jordan yet so he of course a guy who hails from Chicago. But but but with Michael Jordan let me ask you that same question Kobe still has some time to catch up before he puts the rap on on his career."

" I think Kobe has more varied. Clubs arsenal -- any player that's ever played the game. And that includes Michael Kobe's gotten things Kobe's got crazy ranks -- on -- when he steps and crossed midcourt line he's dangerous. And from forty feet. He'll make shots from there he'll make mid range jump shots and went to people on him he will make typical drugs to the -- And go through the glass and get well he can do all of that. Neither and I know he's one of the kind. And I think due to differences. Between Kobe and Michael has to do with the intangible things like leadership. Things of that nature but during. I always wanted to colon and one of the very greatest that's ever played the game of course we we know that Mike roll already has earned those accolades. So we don't know for people go to visit to the sports to argue about in the talk about Wednesday as they -- That's. It's impossible really to determined."

" With Colby's though -- leadership or maturity we taught us that term around I mean you're around him -- seen different thing even this year we saw some some things how would you describe it either how that has evolved or changed."

" I think Kobe cameras this year as a leader for this team because he understood that unless everyone's involved and listen -- team effort they're not going to make your. -- doing so he cunning toned it down a little bit and going to. What else going to involved. -- the best thing for the team. And to have people step forward. Young man came in in the -- Shannon Brown can with some great minutes on the bench. People didn't pay too much attention to it at the time but he really helped because. Almost certain Derek Fisher didn't have to worry about trying to play 42 minutes -- game. And doing that really Manila. And and in -- wrongdoings -- our ability to him to be. I don't wrist or hook a long playoff series."

" I know we're gonna go to break here shortly Korean that I was out there at the coliseum I don't know how many people here -- out there for that incredible celebration of the Lakers but it was. It was awe inspiring you're on the court obviously with the players -- when you looked out and of course you understand the history the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum with the Olympic Games the 59 World Series with the Dodgers everybody had their moment now the Lakers have had players that. Could could you recollect maybe your first championship for the Lakers and how -- differed as far as the city celebration that in 2009 as opposed to 1980."

" I've seen so many people in the -- mean do it on his derived from the Staples Center into the coliseum there'd be about 300000 people on the street. Well people are working and buildings. Came out to the throwing stuff screwed. Some some crazy motorcycle guys read an intersection revving their engines I mean everybody's hearing got behind it and then we get to the coliseum and there's -- 90000 people in the coliseum. I've never seen anything like."
