That was an amazing article... i love what idan ravin said love of the game, ambition, obsessive-compulsive behavior, arrogance/ confidence, selfishness and nonculpability/ guiltlessness. He sees them all in Bryant.
That is the best way to describe kobe to a kobe hater.... still they wont understand because who loves a player thats better than their favorite ahahahaha.
nice find and good read!

sick!
love these quotes:
He is also, by almost all accounts, the best player in the league. "It's not even close," says one Western Conference scout. "The difference between him and LeBron [James] is like [the one between] a Maserati and a Volvo."
A guy who, no matter what he does, will never get the chance to play the one game he'd die for: Bryant versus Jordan, each in his prime. "There'd be blood on the floor by the end," says Winter, who has coached them both.

Great article, thanx for posting. I would always tell people who said Kobe was a ball hog and doesnt pass enough... the guy works harder then anyone and u want him to just hand the ball over to Kwame? As far as love for the game and bball IQ NO ONE touches Bryant.

I continue to be fascinated/amazed by Kobe's competitiveness. It takes a special person to have that much talent, and achieve what he did at a young age, yet still have the desire and drive to keep pushing yourself.
