Better Lakers news than the Game 6 victory? Bryant “100 percent”

SALT LAKE CITY — No need to fret Kobe Bryant’s back problem plaguing the Lakers as they try to win the last eight of the 16 playoff victories needed to be champions, apparently.

“I felt normal, felt 100 percent,” Bryant said. “Our staff did a fantastic job, and our therapists — part of our extended family — came in and did an excellent job and got me ready.”

Bryant took a couple of serious shots to his right hip (his back spasms arose on his right side) in Game 6 and got shoved in the back hard once by Mehmet Okur, but Bryant showed no ill effects.
