More quotes by Kobe Bryant
I think that game is a testament to what happens when you put no ceiling to what you're capable of doing.
Kobe Bryant
The motivation for me is just the game itself, just playing the game the right way and trying to win, compete every time I step out there on the floor. That's motivation enough for me to go out there and play well.
Kobe Bryant
You just try to take it one day at a time, ... You step on the basketball floor and just play. It's fun. I'm comfortable with it.
Kobe Bryant
It's disgusting, but my father taught me when your mouth gets dry, just suck the sweat out of your own jersey. There's no bravado to any of it it's just a disgusting little trick.

I'm here. I'm not going anywhere. No matter what the injury - unless it's completely debilitating - I'm going to be the same player I've always been. I'll figure it out. I'll make some tweaks, some changes, but I'm still coming.
Kobe Bryant
I don't just try to score. The challenge is elevating my teammates to be able to win a championship.

The Black Mamba collection of watches is me: It is my alter ego, so to speak. As I mentioned before, it is sharp, cutting edge and sleek which are characteristics I try to apply when I’m out there on the basketball court.
Kobe Bryant
I can't relate to lazy people. We don't speak the same language. I don't understand you. I don't want to understand you.
Kobe Bryant
Friends come and go but banners hang forever.
Kobe Bryant
I've pretty much done all I can here and, you know, God will carry me the rest of the way, so I'm pretty comfortable with that.
Kobe Bryant
It’s not a question of if we make the playoffs we will. And when we get there, I have no fear of anyone.
Kobe Bryant
The most important thing is to try and inspire people so that they can be great in whatever they want to do.
Kobe Bryant
I didn't expect this award [the 2008 MVP] would come to me. I'm surprised. I've played pretty well in other seasons. Our team hasn't been as good. Things just fell into place.
Kobe Bryant
I don't set out to make a really hot shoe, I set out to make a product that is true to where I am.
Kobe Bryant
You have to be true to who you are.
Kobe Bryant
I'm just so excited. We all are. We've been waiting for this [the gold medal] for years now and it's finally here. This meant so much. It just felt so good.
Kobe Bryant
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.
Kobe Bryant
It doesn't matter to me what place I get traded to. If I was traded someplace - I'd play anywhere.
