Kobe Bryant is not too happy with how his Lakers teammates celebrated their win over the Boston Celtics.

The NBA star's reaction to the postgame celebration was aired during his appearance on "Jimmy Kimmel Live" on Monday, according to the Daily Caller.

The Los Angeles Lakers faced off against the Celtics on Sunday night and ended its seven-game losing streak through an overtime win.

After the match, Lakers players Jordan Hill, Nick Young and Jeremy Lin appeared on camera and celebrated their win. The three appeared as if they have just won the championships. However, last Sunday's game was only their 14th game for this season.

The footage of the three players' postgame interview was then showed by television program host Kimmel to Bryant during the show. Bryant, who is out for the season due to an injury, just sported a deadpan expression after watching the clip.

Apparently, he does not approve of how the Lakers reacted after emerging from a losing streak.

"If you're doing something and it's not very well done, I'm not going to say it's very well done," Bryant told Kimmel.

Like Bryant, Lakers coach Byron Scott also felt disappointed after seeing the footage of his players' celebration. He said he only saw the clip after watching "Jimmy Kimmel Live."

"Kobe's reaction was pretty much my reaction when I was watching it," the coach said in a statement according to ESPN Los Angeles.

"That's not us as Lakers," he continued. "That's not how we act."

Scott said the postgame reaction showed a lack of professionalism among his players. On Tuesday, the coach addressed the matter and showed the clip to the rest of the Lakers team during a practice session.

He told them that he was very upset with how some of them reacted after the match against the Celtics and emphasized the importance of maintaining their composure whether they win or lose a game.
