Kobe Bryant had been dealing with his injured knee all summer long, and he has been rehabbing it ever since he had surgery.   It was clear that Bryant was not 100% during the pre-season, as his performance and play was sub-par.   Reporters from across the world have asked Kobe about the state of his knee for months, and he stayed calm when answering.  However, Kobe is tired and angry with the media’s obsession about his knee.  He told a FOX reporter after last night’s win over the Golden State Warriors to stop asking him about his knee.  Kobe Bryant said his knee is at 100% and he does not want to be asked about it again; however, Phil Jackson does not believe in his superstar.
