http://www.tmz.com/category/tmzsports#ixzz2ilhFTeDAKobe Bryant has apparently forgiven Phil Jackson for calling him an insecure, sensitive sub-Jordanesque player in his book ... 'cause the two got together for breakfast this week, TMZ has learned.
We've learned ... Kobe and his former Lakers coach shared a booth at Wendy's Place in El Segundo Thursday morning ... chowing down on eggs and other breakfast-y items.
Kobe and Phil have had a complicated relationship over the years ... which Phil touched upon in his book, "Eleven Rings," which he released back in May.
In the book, Phil wrote that Michael was a better shooter, defender and overall leader than Kobe ... which some people interpreted as a slight against the Mamba.
But at breakfast yesterday, the two seemed as chummy as ever ... talking about basketball while scarfing down their meal.
So, who paid when the bill came??? The guy with the most jewelry.
Side note -- we spoke to someone who was there that day ... and when we asked how Kobe looked, we were told, "Beautiful."

Lol Phil's always gonna be around. Through the up's and downs its great to see they still have that mutual respect and understanding of each other

I think he's trying to be covert about taking a photo.

When I first read the title I thought Phil and Kobe were actually at Wendy's fast food; that made no sense as I don't envision multimillionaires such as Kobe and Phil having fast food for breakfast. But apparently it's "Wendy's Place," a local restaurant in El Segundo.
Anyways, it's awesome knowing that Phil and Kobe still have a strong relationship even though Phil is no longer his coach. I truly wonder what they discussed.

I'm glad you cleared that up. Because I was seriously concerned with them choosing to meetup at Wendys as the title suggested.
