Kobe Bryant quotes
As far as carrying the torch for the years to come, I don't know. I just want to be the best basketball player I can be.
Everyting negative - pressure, challenges - is all an opportunity for me to rise.
I dont want to be the next Michael Jordan, I only want to be Kobe Bryant.
I'll do whatever it takes to win games, whether it's sitting on a bench waving a towel, handing a cup of water to a teammate, or hitting the game-winning shot.
I'm playing against great players, playing against the best in the world. The competition - that's what I've always wanted.
My parents are my backbone. Still are. They're the only group that will support you if you score zero or you score 40.
Sometimes I do wonder what college would have been like. But I made my decision.
What I'm doing right now, I'm chasing perfection.
