Phil Jackson passed Pat Riley as the coach with the most wins in Los Angeles Lakers history on Wednesday night, but the milestone game left superstar Kobe Bryant hurting.

Bryant didn't practice on Thursday, a day after the Lakers eked out a 99-97 NBA victory over the Charlotte Bobcats u2014 Jackson's 534th victory at the helm. "It has been a really good run," said Jackson, who is also the winningest coach in Chicago Bulls history. "Having this opportunity to coach this team is always special. The fact that we've had some great teams, great players, is always a credit to them. It's not really an individual record in my mind."
