L.A. Times reveals more comments from Lakers owner Jerry Buss about Bryant, Bynum, family

Discussion about Jerry Buss’ 38-minute interview on Wednesday is still circulating and many of his comments that were published by big-time media organizations, such as the L.A. Times, are generating more and more questions from fans who wonder what the team’s next move might be regarding NBA all-star Kobe Bryant, according to a follow up article published today in The Times.

The 74-year-old Lakers owner has publicly admitted that although he doesn’t want to disappoint fans and lose the star of his team, that if the right offer from another team was put on the table, that he would consider trading Bryant.   Buss also had this to say about Bryant during the media interview: “”I think what he’s thinking is, ‘Let me play basketball with some people I know I can win with.’ When he’s on the All-Star teams and all these things, I can imagine how it must feel for him — everybody catching the passes and everybody just doing everything right. It is frustrating. It must be more frustrating for him playing than it is for me.”  At this moment, it appears the all-star will be sticking out the season, but speculation about offers for Bryant continuing to roll in has been rampant.
