I never liked Jones. He always looked and acts like a douche bag. But I don't really see anything dirty about that play. All he did was contest the jump shot and Kobe just clipped the back of his shoes. Ron Artest does this on a daily basis. This is what good defenders do.
BTW, I thought the NBA was cracking down on people swing their legs when they shoot to try to get a 3 point play? I've seen so many people getting offensive fouls for swinging their legs like that and tripping the opponent trying to defend.
