Currently Kobe Bryant is unable to travel with the Lakers due to Achilles injury that will apparently swell up with the high altitude so he’s forced to stay home and watch his team take on the Spurs on the road. And in today’s day and age of social media specifically Twitter Kobe took to the platform and tweeted during which gave fans a pretty interested aspect to follow as the Lakers got beat 91-79 in game 1.
Here’s some of his better tweets on the game itself (@KobeBryant)
I like how Nash is moving so far. Both teams a lil out of rhythm to start

Gotta keep the spurs offense in front of our d. They r great at penetrating and pitching to their shooters

I’m sure you can only imagine what it would be like in the huddle with Kobe during the time out while he’s ACTUALLY playing. Which is why a goofball like Dwight Howard was never a good fit.
Anyways, Lakers current head coach Mike D’Antoni didn’t seem to be too thrilled with Kobe’s in-game tweets (via Yahoo! Sports)…
When told that Bryant tweeted several times that the Lakers should post more, coach Mike D’Antoni rolled his eyes before saying, “It’s great to have that commentary.”
D’Antoni followed up by stating, “He’s a fan right now. You guys put a little bit more importance on that kind of fan. But he’s a fan. He wants to be part of it, so that’s good.”
A fan?? Lol #microphonetalk

Love him or hate him D’Antoni, Kobe is a little more than ‘a fan’. My guess is D’Antoni doesn’t have much time left with the Lakers, give the type of league the NBA is. But who couldn’t see that coming?
