There's always room for improvement. We have a nucleus that's pretty good. You want players that will help.

I've got to play free agency out, and I've got to look at all of my options.

The business always gets in the way of basketball.

Kobe enjoys that situation. Stepping up and making the big basket or being involved in a key play.
