Yesterday a video (see below) surfaced of the 5x champion and MVP calling his teammates "mothafuckas" but teammate Nick Young was the only player with the guts to bark back at the superstar. And he wants his teammates to start talking back and not being so scared of Bryant.
Sources are claiming Young pulled Jeremy Lin and a few others to the side and told them to stand up for themselves.
"You can’t back down from a challenge,” Young said. “Me and Kobe are always going to talk trash and get into it. When he talks to everybody else, some people tend to shy away and I was telling them you have to have some (guts) in this league.
“It doesn’t matter who it is. Play your game. Don’t get any less confident out there. Talk trash right back to him.”
