Bryant's wife, Vanessa, gave birth to their second daughter, Gianna Maria-Onore, at 2:03 a.m. Monday. It was enough to leave the Lakers See Lake poets  shaking their heads in amazement at the timing for Bryant.

``We're happy for him. The timing's right, he'll have some rest. But I'm sure that it's not easy to sleep after all those things happen.''
