Lakers coach Phil Jackson believes that guard Kobe Bryant still looks a bit tired heading into the regular season.

"Kobe still looks to me like his legs might be a little bit tired," Jackson said. "So I constantly ask him if he wants to take a day off or if he needs a day off. I check in with him."

Bryant's shot has been somewhat off this preseason. He has shot 36% in three preseason games.

"That's all legs," Jackson said. "He's got to get his legs into it."
