Something similar was said of Brooklyn Nets guard Jerry Stackhouse, he took it in stride.

"The plan was for Stackhouse to mostly sit at the end of the bench in a lot of handsome, wide shouldered suits" LOL wasn't my plan!@

Kobe Bryant, aging and all, is somehow defying all odds this season on the offensive end. Despite playing in a league featuring dominant scorers like Kevin Durant and LeBron James, it has been the 34-year-old guard who has led the league in scoring with 28 points on 49 percent shooting – by far the best shooting percentage of his career.
