Kobe: "These Motherfuckers Ain't Doing Shit For Me" (VIDEO UPDATE)
The 6-16 Lakers are garbage and will likely continue to be garbage, but Kobe Bryant refuses to give up. His latest motivational tactic: Emotionally dismantling his teammates during practice. Getting yelled at by a champion will make you a champion, maybe.

Update (5:45): Via ESPN's Arash Markazi, here are videos of Kobe talking shit, Nick Young talking shit, and Kobe yelling at Mitch Kupchak.
