How good he was and his worked out in the basketball courts early in the morning while everyone was sleep but KOBE. Who was practicing on the courts. By his self. KOBE wanted to win and he showed it by getting up early going ro the courts working on difference way to make the basket in the hoops. evert time I see these aids of KOBE It bring back memories of KOBE and how hard he worked on the basketball courts.

    The Mamba Mentality is very Militaristic. Klay said 4:30am 4 mile run only brings back memories of running around the Airfield on Friday nights on post while other soldiers were out partying and drinking. Getting my 8-10 with a 7:30 pace meant that runners high was hittin' followed by a nice cool down and ice bath. A good meal and some great sleep. The best part was always since they knew I was that dedicated to physical training I could enjoy extra sleep while everyone else was freezing their balls off early mornings kinda like Klay said.

    Man Kobe was such a humanitarian. In 2003 he raised a foundation helping women in need in colorado. Just look up Kobe Bryant Colorado 2003 🙏

    I never liked Kobe. Thought he acted like a jerk most of the time and “issues” in Colorado really put a stain on his reputation for me. That said, it’s amazing to watch the respect and admiration other nba players have for Kobe. It puts him in a different light, even to a Kobe-hater like me.
