More quotes by 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
It's different from being 21 and you think there's endless amount of opportunities. At 33, the ending is much, much closer.

Kobe Bryant
You can't go and anticipate what it is that you want to see. You just have to be present. Be where you are.
