Joe Philbin is trying to relate to his players or just earn brownie points, either way I’m sure they aren’t complaining. According to Miami Herald columnist Armando Salguero, Philbin decided to cancel a very boring part of practice and instead took the squad on a field trip to the movies to see Straight Outta Compton. This is a make or break year for him as head coach and he may just want to bond better with some of the guys. He better hope these same guys show up on Sunday’s once the season starts. Check the gallery!

(Video) NBA: Kobe Has NO Chill! Rips Teammates In Practice, Curses Out Team & GM!
You gotta love Kobe, you just have to! He will NEVER bite his tongue for anyone, doesn’t matter who it is! The Lakers season is already a joke this year, and Kobe knows his time is limited to actually be part of a winning team. Combine that with a ugly practice from his teammates and it set Kobe off! He stormed out of practice but made sure to curse out basically the entire team and GM Mitch Kupchak as he walked off saying ” These MF’s ain’t doing s*** for me”, amongst other things. Teammates said after the fact they weren’t mad at him and they kinda looked at it as he is trying to light a fire under them. I guess that could be part of it, but Kobe probably does have a part of him that can’t stand his teammates and the team he is on. I think he has earned the right to air his frustrations!
