One thing about Kobe Bryant is he never holds his tongue.  Yesterday, the ESPN’s annual ranking of the NBA players was announced and to say Bryant thought ESPN got it wrong would be an understatement.  ESPN ranked Bryant as the 40th best player currently in the league. While, Bryant is well out of his prime, that is clearly disrespectful to a five time NBA champion and one of the best to ever put on a Lakers uniform.

It seems like ESPN’s analysts love to fire up Bryant because he always responds on the court.  Luckily for all of us, the media was able to get his reaction to his ranking. He said, “I’ve known for a long time that they’re a bunch of idiots.” The idiots being ESPN of course.  Just to put it in perspective, here are the four players ranked directly above Bryant:

39. Andre Igoudala

38. Klay Thompson

37. Rajon Rondo

36. Dwyane Wade

Is Kobe’s rank fair or not fair?
