Kobe Bryant has made it no secret that he might retire after his two-year deal with the Los Angeles Lakers expires, creating speculation that superstar guard will consider coaching once he call it quits.

However, Lakers coach Byron Scott doesn't see Bryant following the footsteps of former Los Angeles greats Pat Riley and Magic Johnson, who became coach after their respective playing careers.

When asked why he thinks Bryant is not suited for the job, Scott said that Bryant is too tough and will be too demanding to his players if he becomes a coach.

"He would probably be a whole lot more demanding than Pat Riley, myself and guys like that. It would be tough," Scott said of Bryant via Yahoo Sports. "Plus, he would expect guys to play like him, to have that type of passion that he has for the game, and to have the love for the game that he has and to have that commitment."

Bryant has yet to talk about his plans after his playing career. But based on his recent activities, Bryant looks set to become a businessman once he decides to hang up his sneakers, similar to what Michael Jordan did.

The 36-year-old superstar will be entering the 19th season of his career, and there so much questions surrounding him after sustaining two major injuries last year - a torn Achilles tendon before the 2013 NBA Playoffs and a knee fracture in December last year.

Bryant, who averaged 13.8 points to go along with 6.3 assists and 4.3 rebounds last season, impressed Scott in their first practices with the first year Lakers coach saying on Tuesday that he had to ask Bryant to slow down.

"I basically had to ask Kobe to shut it down," Scott said via ESPN Los Angeles. "He went through one more drill and then shut it down. He felt he felt great and could have done more."

Scott admitted, though, that he will have to manage Bryant's playing time next season, but he remains optimistic that the 18-year veteran will play in all 82 regular-season games this season, while also adding that the 16-time All-Star could average 23-24 points per game.
