Friday afternoon Kobe Bryant talked about his injury. Here’s a bit of what he said:
Q: Kobe, can you tell us how your finger is and your injury?
Kobe Bryant: It’s sore. Just trying to rest it. Doing what we can to try to get it as healthy as we can for the second half of the season.
Q: So you were offered surgery as an option, and didn’t like it?
Bryant: Well, no, that’s bad timing. I’ve been playing with it, so it’s kind of routine to do that. But we have a great medical staff and we’ll stay on top of it.
Q: Can you protect it more than you did at Minnesota?
Bryant: You’ve just got to be careful. It’s tough though. Especially when you’re rebounding, offensive rebounds. It’s always tough. But what more can I do? It’s torn anyway.
