SANTA BARBARA, Calif. -- Kobe Bryant feels great, would welcome Byron Scott as coach of the Los Angeles Lakers, would love to play alongside free agent Carmelo Anthony and is pleased with the moves of the teams front office so far. At least thats how the All-Star guard presented things at UC Santa Barbara on Wednesday, where Bryant is hosting his annual youth basketball camp. But for anybody hoping for definitive answers, Bryant had nothing to offer. "Obviously its a hot topic of conversation in terms where everybody is going to go," he said. "Everybody is here to read tea leaves. I dont have much to tell you. I dont have any information you guys dont already know." Bryant addressed a throng of reporters during a wide-ranging conversation delayed by about an hour as he watched the end of the World Cup semifinal match between Argentina and the Netherlands elsewhere. He teased reporters asking him for his thoughts on the game. "I missed it," he deadpanned. "I was trying to rush over here to get to you fine folk. I didnt get a chance to catch the end. Who won?" His joke fooled nobody, as he had moments earlier tweeted his excitement for an Argentina-Germany final, followed shortly after by another tweet that expressed his boredom at a by-now all-too-familiar line of questions. The tweet included the hashtags "diffwritersamequestion" and "yawn." Mostly, Bryant stressed patience in waiting to see who signs where. "Its a little hard now because I think everyone is playing the waiting game to a certain extent, at least we are," he said. "You kind of want to see where the dominoes fall and then operate from there. You wind up operating in somewhat of a window. You start seeing other players going other places, players that you can use to fill out the roster, right? So you see these things happening and youre behind a bit, but its worth the wait." The 18-year NBA veteran didnt hide his sentiments about the possibility of playing alongside Anthony, the Knicks free agent and his two-time Olympic teammate. "I would love to play with him," Bryant said. "Weve really clicked since 2008. I would love to see that." Bryant said he would also welcome his former teammate, Scott, as his next coach. "He was my rookie mentor when I first came in the league, so I had to do things like get him doughnuts and run errands for him, things like that," he said. "Weve had a tremendously close relationship throughout the years." In terms of grading the performance of the Lakers front office this off-season, Bryant suggested that he was pleased, but that he would not be happy with another rebuilding year. "Ive never had patience; Im not going to start now," he said. "But you do what you have to do as an organization. God forbid we end up with absolutely nothing, its not for a lack of effort. Thats something I would be extremely proud of. We put forth the effort and gave it our best shot. What can you do? You just go from there and do your best and try to win." Bryant said he believed signing Anthony would go a long way to retaining unrestricted free agent Pau Gasol. "My biggest message to (Gasol) was, Make sure you enjoy this process," Bryant said. "The ball is in your court. This is your decision to make, dont feel like the weight is on your shoulders. Im sure if we got Carmelo that would help him make his decision." Bryant said he feels as though his body is in midseason form. "Physically, I feel great," he said. "I dont think about my knee when Im training, I dont think about my Achilles when Im training. I feel sharp and crisp and well just add on from there." Fake NBA Jerseys 2019 .

Darren Collison and Blake Griffin scored 23 points apiece and the Clippers beat the Suns 112-108 Wednesday night, their fourth win in a row and 17th in the last 19 games.Charlotte, NC (SportsNetwork.com) - The second-ranked Florida State Seminoles and 12th-ranked Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets will collide at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, N.C. on Saturday evening, with the Atlantic Coast Conference championship on the line. Jimbo Fishers Seminoles have staved off defeat more than a few times this season but have come through the battles unscathed, as they have now won 28 straight games. The defending national champions knocked off rival Florida last weekend, 24-19 to finish the regular season at 12-0. The team won the ACCs Atlantic Division a couple of weeks ago and is eyeing up its 15th ACC championship since joining the league in 1992. FSU is playing in its fifth ACC Title Game and fourth in the last five seasons. Paul Johnsons Yellow Jackets are a formidable obstacle in the way. Georgia Tech earned the Coastal Division title and will be playing in its third ACC Championship Game in the last six years. The Yellow Jackets moved to 10-2 on the season with a thrilling 30-24 overtime victory over archrival Georgia last weekend. Earlier this week, Johnson was named the ACC Coach of the Year for the third time. I accept this award on behalf of our football program - assistant coaches, players, staff, and everyone involved, Johnson said. As everyone knows, this is not a one-person award. I appreciate the honor. These two teams are meeting in the title game for the second time in the last three seasons. Florida State won that matchup (21-15) and holds a 13-9-1 series advantage all-time. The Seminoles have been playing with fire this season, but have not been burned yet, thanks in large part to Jameis Winston and his cool demeanor in the face of defeat. Last years Heisman winner has engineered three game- winning drives this season alone to keep the Seminoles win streak going. The offensive numbers on the year are pretty good, with the team averaging 34.6 ppg on 430.2 yards of total offense. A good portion of that yardage comes via Winstons arm, as FSUs signal caller has completed 65.1 percent of his passes, for 3,250 yards and 21 TDs. However, he has been prone to make mistakes in 2014, with a whopping 17 interceptions, including four last week against Florida. FSUs all-time leading receiver is at Winstons disposal on the outside, as senior Rashad Greene is having yet another stellar season, catching 86 balls, for 1,183 yards and five TDs. Tight end Nick OLeary (44 rec, 517 yds, 5 TDs) is a viable option downfield as well. The FSU ground game has posted modest numbers this season (131.2 ypg), but freshman Dalvin Cook has come on late and really showed signs of explosive play. He currently leadss the team with 728 yards (5.dddddddddddd9 ypc) and seven TDs. Fellow tailback Karlos Williams (609 yards, 10 TDs) can move the chains as well, although he is listed as questionable with concussion-like symptoms. Hell have to be judged, Fisher said of Williams. Well keep him out for a couple days no matter what. They always do that. Then day by day well see how hes doing. Florida State has shown itself vulnerable on the defensive side of the football this season, yielding 22.0 ppg on 371.1 yards of total offense. The team has recorded 23 takeaways, but just 17 sacks in 12 games. Linebackers Reggie Northrup (101 tackles, 1 sack, 1 INT, 1 FF, 1 FR) and Terrance Smith (83 tackles, 1 sack, 2 INTs, 2 FF) lead in the way in the middle of the defense. Defensive backs Jalen Ramsey (69 tackles, 9.5 TFL, 3.0 sacks, 2 INT, 2 FF) and P.J. Williams (51 tackles, 1 INT) highlight the play in the secondary, while Mario Edwards Jr. (41 tackles, 11.0 TFL, 3.0 sacks) and Eddie Goldman (35 tackles, 8.0 TFL, 4.0 sacks) have been productive up front. The Yellow Jackets prefer to run the ball right down the throats of the opposition and they use their potent triple-option to near perfection week-in and week-out. Georgia Tech is averaging 333.8 yards per game on the ground, ranking third in the nation in rushing. Everything is set up by redshirt sophomore quarterback Justin Thomas. The 5-11, 189-pounder leads the team in rushing with 861 yards and five TDs, while showing rarely seen passing skills for a Tech QB, throwing for 1,460 yards and 16 TDs this year. Of course, Thomas isnt the only Yellow Jacket chewing up yardage on the ground. Both Zach Laskey (748 yards, 8 TDs) and Synjyn Days (686 yards 3 TDs) have contributed a great deal. In all, Georgia Tech has scored 37 times this year via the run. The team may have to rely even more on the run than usual, as Techs top receiving threat DeAndre Smelter (35 rec, 715 yds, 7 TDs) tore his ACL against Georgia and is out. Georgia Techs defense hasnt quite kept pace with its explosive offense this season, but has had its moments of dominant play. In all, the team is giving up 24.1 ppg, on .388.8 yards of offense and has forced 27 turnovers this year. Linebacker P.J. Davis is the teams top tackler and is closing in on the century mark in stops with 97 on the year. He also has four sacks, one interception and three forced fumbles to his credit. Fellow LB Quayshawn Nealy (84 tackles, 6.0 TFL, 2 INT, 3 FR) has made his share of plays as well. Freshman DE KeShun Freeman (46 tackles) leads the team in TFL (9.0) and sacks (4.5), while safety Jamal Golden (46 tackles) paces the team in INTs (4). ' ' '
