Globe and Mail - While in Tapei this summer, Kobe Bryant was quoted as saying that the United States National Team would have to work on its chemistry in order to win the 2008 Olympics.

"Those words never came out of my mouth," he said. "I think something must have gotten lost in translation. Obviously, they misunderstood everything I was saying."

Bryant also hopes the signing of Vladimir Radmanovic, Maurice Evans and Shammond Williams will help improve the Lakers.

"We made some key additions with those guys," Bryant said. "We turned some heads the way we performed last season. We were a very young team. We're still a young team. I think it will be exciting."
