Coach Byron Scott told NBA.com it's possible Bryant could spend time at power forward.
"If we don't get another guard, then Kobe's in that mix," Scott said of a potential switch. "I'm kind of going through those scenarios. But not necessarily as far as who's starting and who doesn't. ... I think [Bryant] will play more 3 than 2. If we can get him at the elbows and at the mid-post, the more effective he'll be.
Scott said the franchise's goal through the draft and free agency was to become more versatile, and he thinks the team has accomplished that.
"Kobe can play 1, 2 and 3," Scott told NBA.com. "There's no doubt in my mind. And there's some games, against some teams, where he'll probably play 4. With his tenaciousness, the way he guards people and when his mind is set, if I say, 'Kobe, you've got him,' he takes that as a challenge. You know how he is. He'll compete."
post moves though
Kobe. Play him at the 2 and have highlight reels of Western guards breaking his shytty ankles.
