With the Los Angeles Lakers still searching for their first victory of the season, Kobe Bryant’s quest for a sixth NBA championship has never appeared more difficult. Bryant, however, isn’t ready to start issuing trade demands.

“I hear the chatter of Kobe should ask out and he should go and play for a contender in this latter stage of his career,” Bryant told Yahoo Sports. “But that’s not what I do. I’m extremely loyal to the Lakers.

“I’ve enjoyed a great amount of success here. You can’t just enjoy the successful times and then run away from the bad ones. No, I don’t even think about [departing]. I’m a Laker.”
