Kobe Bryant is not impressed with how the Knicks are running the triangle offense.
Kobe Bryant and the Lakers played the New York Knicks today in Madison Square Garden. The Knicks won 99 to 95 but that didn’t stop Kobe from having some fun with the crowd.
During a free throw, a fan sitting courtside at the game caught Bryant talking some trash about New York’s offense.

Kobe is either not impressed with how his former teammate and current Knicks head coach Derek Fisher is implementing the triangle offense, or is just pointing out to the Knicks’ fans that their team is just not good enough to properly execute it.
Whatever it is, this is why we love Kobe for who he is. He is one of the best trash talkers of all-time and always plays the crowd well.
Hopefully tonight’s game wasn’t the last time we see Bryant playing in the great Madison Square Garden. He hinted earlier this week that this could be his last season in the NBA but hasn’t fully decided yet.
In 32 minutes, Bryant scored 18 points on 6-of-19 shooting in the loss to the Knicks. The Lakers are now 1-5 on the season and travel to Miami to take on the Heat Tuesday night.
