“Love me or hate me, it’s one or the other. Always has been. Hate my game, my swagger. Hate my fade away, my hunger. Hate that I’m a veteran. A champion. Hate that. Hate it with all your heart. And hate that I’m loved, for the exact same reasons.”
“It’s funny. I think a lot of people, a lot of writers, try to take shortcuts in their assignments and just regurgitate what somebody else may have written, you know, instead of truly saying what’s going on," Kobe says. "I'm no different than anybody. Basketball to me, it’s a game that I want to try to be the best at, try to work at as much as possible. But I understand it’s a game. But I'm extremely outgoing. People say, 'He's quiet' and all that stuff. That's crazy. They obviously don't know me. So, I mean, people that know me and people that seen me interact, stuff like that, I'm completely opposite of what they read. And a lot of people actually tell me that. They'll say, 'Man, you're nothing like I thought you were.”
"I just go. I just go. I just keep going until it feels right to me," Kobe says of his habits. "If something doesn't feel right, I'm gonna stay there until I get it right. I just continue to keep pushing and pushing and pushing. That’s all I've known. That's how my parents raised me. If you're going to be focused on something, if you want to do something, you can't, you can't go about it in a half-assed way. You really gotta dedicate yourself to it, try to be the best at it. That's the only way."
"I'm playing against great players, playing against the best in the world. The competition - that’s what I've always wanted."
“我正在跟伟大的球员进行对抗，跟世界上最好的球员进行对抗。这种对抗是我一直都渴望着的。
"My parents are my backbone. Still are. They're the only group that will support you if you score zero or you score 40."
“父母仍然是我打篮球的支柱。只有他们自始自终在支持你，不管你得到0分，还是砍下40分。”
"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."
