More quotes by 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
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
He shouldn't have been in the NBA, but we were too cheap to pay for a point guard.
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
Because we're old as sh*t. What do you want?
Kobe Bryant
Thank god, I'm not from this world.
Kobe Bryant
What I'm doing right now, I'm chasing perfection... and if I don't get it, I'm going to get this close.
Kobe Bryant
It's hard for me to grasp the concept of somebody being nervous when I'm talking to them.
Kobe Bryant
Dear Basketball, From the moment I started rolling my dad's tube socks and shooting imaginary game-winning shots ... I fell in love with you.
Kobe Bryant
We're grown ass men, you don't need to be falling all over the place.
Kobe Bryant
Pooper scooper? Yeah, I've done it a few times. Every once in a while, you have to.
Kobe Bryant
My brain cannot process failure... It WILL not process failure
Kobe Bryant
You want me to own a team and deal with these rich, spoiled stubborn athletes, and try to get them to perform? No thank you.
Kobe Bryant
I grew up in front of these people, and now they are seeing me as an 'older' young man.
Kobe Bryant
I realize now that there's a strength in dunking that I can use to my advantage. When you dunk all the time it isn't as demoralizing to the opponent, but when you dunk at a key moment in the game you can use it to change the momentum.
Kobe Bryant
Everybody has a different journey.
Kobe Bryant
You want a CEO that understands they need to build a team around them that's sharper and smarter than they are.
Kobe Bryant
I've played with IVs before, during and after games. I've played with a broken hand, a sprained ankle, a torn shoulder, a fractured tooth, a severed lip, and a knee the size of a softball. I don't miss 15 games because of a toe injury that everybody knows wasn't that serious in the first place.
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
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.
