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.

More quotes by Kobe Bryant
You have to rely on others to have success as a group.
Kobe Bryant
I was probably born a scorer, but I was made a winner. Whatever works, whatever wins championships, wins games, that's what I do.
Kobe Bryant
I'm extremely willful to win, and I respond to challenges. Scoring titles and stuff like that... it sounds, well, I don't care how it sounds - to me, scoring comes easy. It's not a challenge to me to win the scoring title, because I know I can.
Kobe Bryant
There's been a lot of talk of me being a one-man show but that's simply not the case. We win games when I score 40 points and we've won when I score 10.
Kobe Bryant
Heroes come and go, but legends are forever.
Kobe Bryant
The people who truly know me know what I'm like. There have been people who try to say things that aren't fair, and I check them. And then they don't like me because I checked them.
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
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
You have to be able to separate business from the love of the game. There were a lot of decisions made business-wise that I wasn't happy with, and I took a lot of blame over the years. But you have to be able to separate that from the love you have for the game.
Kobe Bryant
I'm playing against great players, playing against the best in the world. The competition-that's what I've always wanted.
Kobe Bryant
When you have empathy toward your opponents, it helps you destroy them quicker. Because you understand exactly who they are. You understand what buttons to push. You understand if they're insecure, if they fear embarrassment. And you can really hit those buttons to strike a nerve.
Kobe Bryant
What people see on court is another side of me it's not me.
Kobe Bryant
There's a difference [between taking a charge and flopping]. We all know what flopping is when we see it. The stuff that you see is where guys aren't really getting hit at all and are just flailing around like a fish out of water. That's kind of like, where are your balls at?
Kobe Bryant
I felt like when we came back from the All-Star break we needed everybody to feel like they were part of the team, ... I'm just trying to do whatever the team needs at any given time.
Kobe Bryant
I wear the number 10 Jersey for the US National Team in honour of the Greatest athlete I have ever seen: Messi.
Kobe Bryant
Dropkick Murphys get me going, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Nirvana... plus, all the regular hip-hop stuff.
Kobe Bryant
He is a fool who only sees the mischiefs that are past.
Kobe Bryant
Pooper scooper? Yeah, I've done it a few times. Every once in a while, you have to.
Kobe Bryant
Christmas morning, I'm going to open presents with my kids. I'm going to take pictures of them opening the presents. Then I'm going to come to the Staples Center and get ready to work.
Kobe Bryant
There is power in understanding the journey of others to help create your own
