Kobe Bryant wishes he was in a situation similar to Tim Duncan's with the San Antonio Spurs as the Los Angeles Lakers are in the midst of a rebuild.

"I'm extremely jealous of that," Bryant said this week. "I don't know if I can express to you how jealous I am of the fact that Tim, Tony [Parker], Manu [Ginobili] and Pop [Spurs coach Gregg Popovich] have all been together for all those years. Like, I can't even ... I can't express to you how jealous I am of that. Not all this up-and-down stuff."

Duncan, Parker and Ginobili have all been together since 2002, winning a record 111 playoff games together.

"It would be like if Me, Pau, L.O. and Phil, if we were all just here, still," Bryant said. "It's crazy. That longevity is freaking crazy."

Bryant would love the opportunity to play another playoff series against the Spurs.

"I want a crack at him," Bryant said of Duncan. "I want to get another crack before it's all said and done. I would love to play the Spurs in the playoffs one more time, you know what I mean? As a competitor, you want to have the most [titles], but at the same time, it's well-deserved."
