Deep dives

The Experience of Playing with Kobe Bryant

Playing against Kobe Bryant was like an ultimate chess match. It was a mental battle every game. Kobe had different versions, from playing with Shaq to being the main leader of the Lakers. My favorite Kobe to guard was when he was hungry and determined after Shaq left. He was a monster to guard, always motivated to show that the Lakers were his team. Mentally, he was one of the toughest players to face.
