New game plan for Kobe Bryant?

Here's what new Lakers coach Mike Brown said the other day when asked about his plans this season for Kobe Bryant:

"We have play-calls for him that will put him right off the post. I have different areas of the floor that are named, and the area we feel he likes not necessarily on the post but in what we like to call the Karl Malone area. It's a few feet off the post. We have sets. We have automatic stuff that will get him to that area. We know he likes the ball (just off) the elbow. We have sets and automatic stuff that will get him to the elbow. Some of the stuff we have will get him in that area will give him a choice. ...

"We'll also use him in some pick-and-roll. Whenever we've coached against him, you pretty much have to double-team him because he's a very effective pull-up jump shooter. When I see that, anytime anybody gets double-teamed, if the floor is spaced correctly, if you move the ball, you can make teams pay when they commit two guys to the ball. We'll put him in some pick-and-roll situations some to facilitate for other guys."

Brown won't be running the triangle offense, but it's also likely the Lakers won't play the same sort of scheme he used when he coached LeBron James and the Cleveland Cavaliers since he has far more options with his new team than with his old one.
