Kobe Bryant has no problem with signing for free-agent Gilbert Arenas. "It certainly wouldn't hurt," Bryant told reporters when asked about whether the Lakers should add "Habatchi," a nickname Arenas gave himself after making 60 points on the Lakers in 2006.

Arenas, 30, the former Washington Wizards/Orlando Magic star held a private workout for Lakers last weekend. He was waived by the Orlando Magic via the amnesty clause. Last season, he averaged 8.0 points in 49 games for Orlando.
