Kobe Bryant made some comments that have brought him much criticism from basketball fans by calling his Lakers team "old and slow." T.I. was brought onto ESPN's First Take to discuss how he felt about the comments Kobe made, and according to T.I., he feels as though Kobe should've shown more leadership, rather than make comments that could potentially bring down the morale of his fellow teammates.

Kobe just seems bitter cause his squad aint on top of the world no more and haven't been for a while but he's still one of the best to do it just a sore loser thats all.

I agree. Kobe is basically saying, "we can't hang with other teams." Even though it's true, as a leader, you don't say that. How the other players gonna respond? step up?? highly doubt it. Laker championship days are over as long as Kobe is still playing for them.
