Kobe Bryant should know how to defend a pick and roll.
I wore the number 24 in high school my freshman, sophomore year because of him. I wore Kobe Bryant basketball shoes because of Kobe Bryant. Every time I laced up my basketball shoes, I felt like I had Kobe Bryant with me. I had a little part of him - I had his jumper, his fadeaway.
When you're Kobe Bryant, you've got every little young guy coming at you every night, and it's you who's still got to carry the team. When he tore his Achilles... I just felt bad. I knew he was going to come back and be Kobe Bryant.
He's very knowledgeable. That's the one advantage that I see in Kobe Bryant's career compared to Michael Jordan. Ten years into Kobe Bryant's career, we're seeing a very polished 27-year-old player who's probably got another seven or eight great years ahead of him.
When you're watching from the bench, you can pick up on everything - where guys like to shoot the ball from, how teams defend the pick-and-roll, which big men are good at hedging the screen and so on.
I think nobody should rash things and try to find the successor of Kobe Bryant.
I had orders from the great Bill Russell. Me and him were talking in Seattle the other day, and he was telling me how rivalries should be. I asked him if he ever disliked anybody he played against, and he told me, 'No, never,' and he told me that I should shake Kobe Bryant's hand and let bygones be bygones and bury the hatchet.
I think Kobe Bryant was great.
I don't need no advice from Kobe Bryant.
Kobe Bryant is a terrific offensive rebounder.
I grew up watching Kobe Bryant.
Kevin Garnett was a great player, but he wasn't Kobe Bryant.
I love Kobe Bryant, was a Lakers fan for sure.
I love dudes who are about winning and that is Kobe Bryant !
It's hard not to respect Kobe Bryant's game: He's one of the all-time greats.
But I don't look forward to the day that Kobe Bryant's not in purple and gold.
Kobe Bryant will be better than Michael Jordan
