Most ferocious was Kobe. Fiercest, most competitive, it was Kobe. D Wade is second after that.
For me, there's no difference between what's temporary and what's definitive. I built the church in Kobe, which was supposed to be temporary, and people liked it so much that there's a version of it still there today - unlike some concrete buildings that were just built for money and that can be destroyed from one day to the next. Concrete can be very fragile during earthquakes.
I don't want to be the next Michael Jordan, I only want to be Kobe Bryant.
Kobe always tried to be a hero. But you know, as the saying goes, a hero ain't nothing but a sandwich.
Well, it used to be Kobe Bryant. . . the second best all time. . . now, I have a new favorite player to play against. . . my former teammate, LeBron James.
I don't want to be Kobe, I want to be LeBron.
Nobody can guard Kobe one-on-one. Nobody.
I love dudes who are about winning and that is Kobe Bryant !
Honestly, I don't listen to nobody else's music but my own. It's kind of like sports to me. You don't see Kobe Bryant at a LeBron James game - he just works on his own game. And that's what I do. I only listen to me, so I can criticize and analyze and all those things.
You walk in our locker room and you see Pau Gasol, you see Andrew Bynum, you see Kobe, you see Ron Artest. . . we have so many players that can play.
Michael Jordan on his worst day is ten times better than Kobe Bryant on his best day
I don't think Kobe is the best player. I'm the best player.
Kobe Bryant will be better than Michael Jordan
You know how I be. Last week Kobe couldn't do without me.
I have my own identity. . . The whole Michael thing does drive me nuts sometimes because people won't leave it alone. He's bald, I have hair. He's almost 40, I'm 22. Seriously though, I wish people would let it be and let me just be Kobe.
