Comments about ‘Utah Jazz: Kobe Bryant gives credit for effort’

Good for Kobe giving props to Jazz, but I don't agree entirely with his last statement about soft guys turning into touch guys in Salt Lake. I think Jazz management looks for guys that already have played hard, either in college or the pros. Even slimmer guys like Hayward or Evans...they go hard for rebounds. In that vein, Jefferson needs to step up even more as far as rebounding. As usual, I am very disappointed that Fes didn't play more. He is the only Jazzman that gives Pau Gasol fits. This was a great game, but the Lakers almost never miss so many outside shots. Go Jazz!!!

Kobe still a class act.. he trusts his coach will have the team together for another run at the ring...and he will

Very classy comments from Kobe as was his behavior during and after the game. Maybe he is finally amturing on a personal basis.

Kobe is unbelivable. but proud of my Jazz. It's what u see is what u get with CJ. Two great games two bad. I think that is just the way it's going to be for him.

Never thought I'd hear it from KB, but:

"They have a lot of talent, and their guys play together," Bryant said. "They're unselfish. They're a great team."

Will wonders never cease? I never thought the man had it in him to see beyond himself.

Thanks, Kobe!

Class.
