The latest on Newport Coast resident Kobe Bryant.
From The Los Angeles Times.

He was colder than cold, more so than the 14-degree weather outside, an inopportune time for inconsistency on a team that desperately needed to allay concerns about not being tough enough.
Phil Jackson had already asked if Bryant’s left ankle was bothering him. Then he wondered why Bryant kept missing shots that normally went down.
But Bryant assured Jackson during a late timeout that he would make his next shot.
