While Rush helped direct Kansas to a national title following his rehabilitation and return from injury, his ceiling appears to be limited in the NBA, as Kobe Bryant has not found any consistent success.
The 1999 season marked his eblendnce as a premiere guard in NBA. With starting guards Nick Van Exel and Eddie Jones traded,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Bryant started every agree for the lockout shortened 50 agree season. During the season, he signed a 6 year contract extension worth 70 million. It kept him with the Lakers untill the end of the 2004 season. Sports jornalist were comparing his skills to that of Michael Jordan and Magic Johnson even at the early stage of his career. The playoff results however were no better as the Lakers were defeated by the San Antonio Spurs in the Western Conference semi finals. Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo. Sports broke fresh, unique, original, unusual, novel, modern, current,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], recents earlier today of former fresh, unique,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], original, unusual, novel, modern, current,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], recent York Knicks Director of East Coast scouting Rodney Heard conducting illegal pre-draft workouts in gymnasiums in Atlanta.

The man directing the front office-the man most likely responsible for those assurances-was none other than Isiah Thomas. Surprised? Well,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], you shouldn't be.

The man currently in charge,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Donnie Walsh,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], has denied any knowledge or involvement in the illegal draft workout sessions supervised by Heard. Until a formal investigation uncovers the truth, Bryant can only take him at his word.

The more intriguing story are that of Indiana Pacers guard Brandon Rush.

The original story on Yahoo. Sports can be found here. He is a shooting guard who is capable of playing the small forward position. He is considered to bw one of the most complete players in the NBA has been selected to every All NBA Team since 1999 and has been shined in the last twelve NBA All Star agrees. Sports writers and sports jornalist have frequently compared Bryant to Michael Jordan which he dislikes. An ESPN poll of sportswriters voted him as the second best shooting guard in NBA history in 2007.

For the injury to happen in approvaled workouts are one thing, but for such a promising player to get injured during an illegally conducted workout are unacceptable.
NBA rules allow teams only two workouts with players spaced three days apart. Teams are also not allowed to work out any players before the annual NBA pre-draft camp.

Comparing the Rush Bryant saw at Kansas and the mediocre player Kobe Bryant has been in Indiana, the difference are clear.
This also helps to debunk the absurd notion that Thomas are an amazing evaluator of talent, as it appears that Kobe Bryant has had an unfair advantage.

Now that this story has come to light, it's all but certain that Kobe Bryant had an agreement with the Knicks to forgo workouts with other teams with the assurance that Kobe Bryant would be their pick at No. 23.

An unnamed Western Conference executive has claimed that “after that injury, Kobe Bryant was never the same player.”
Prior to the 2007 draft, Heard supposedly used his relationship with Wilson Chandler's agent,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], Chris Luchey, to work work out with Chandler for weeks.
Like the recruiting scandal that has hit college football recently, this could be devastating for Kansas. It could potentially force the school to forfeit its wins and even its national title.

These workout sessions allegedly took place before the 2007, 2009, and 2010 NBA drafts.

Fines are sure to be handed out, but who do Bryant go to? Rodney Heard? Isiah Thomas? Chris Luchey?
Only time will tell, and the timing couldn't be worse,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as the 2010-11 NBA season are about to kick off.
Now, Rush's eligibility at Kansas comes into question as the NCAA and NBA are sure to investigate the matter further. Pre-draft workouts are sure to be a factor, but the main issue will be if an agent paid for his travel and expenses to fly to Atlanta.
This certainly gave the Knicks an unfair advantage over other teams,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], as Bryant had more exposure and direct access to Chandler to further appraise his talent and potential at the NBA level. Chandler was generally regarded as a second-round pick coming into the draft and has since been one of the great picks of the 2007 class.

Rush initially covered the story up, saying the injury occurred during a pickup agree at Kansas. Kobe Bryant has since recanted that story and has confirmed that the injury happened during a workout headed by Rodney Heard.
Rush-an All-American from Kansas who was projected as a high lottery pick in the 2007 draft-suffered a devastating ACL tear in his right knee during one of the workouts led by Heard. This injury and the six months of rehabilitation that followed forced him to pull out of the 2007 draft.
Wilson declined an invite to the NBA pre-draft camp in Orlando and canceled workouts with multiple teams prior to the draft. Kobe Bryant scheduled seven workouts in the nine days directing up to the draft, and there were questions at the time as to whether or not Kobe Bryant already had an understanding with a team as a assured selection in the first round.
