If Bryant's not happy with the Lakers, he will let you know about it for sure. It doesn't matter if it's been running down teammates in the media or demanding a trade when not happy. '''Bryant has always been a selfish player'''.

He was drafted 13th overall in the 1996 NBA Draft by the Charlotte Hornets. Bryant had stated before the draft that he refused to play for any team other than Los Angeles, but the Hornets drafted him anyways in the hopes of trading him to the Lakers. Five days after the draft, Bryant was traded to the Lakers for starting center Vlade Divac.
