I thought he handled the Kobe thing pretty well. And he had a good "not saying stupid stuff" year this year. But then he went and got stupid again. This morning on SC the interviewer asked him something about talking to Kobe and he said "Who?" and she said "Kobe Bryant" and he said something like "I don't know anybody by that name" and kept the little facade going through the rest of the interview.
GROW UP!
