Kobe made some statements which I really think is humbling. As long as he doesn't become one of those "I KNOW IM THE ISH" players, he'll be fine. This quote really made me respect Kobe even more. This was after the 81 point performance. <div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post"> "Through my career I've been compared to him so many times, and I just wish it would stop," Bryant said. "He's Michael Jordan and I'm Kobe Bryant; we're two different players. I just wish people would let it go because it really annoys me. "You can't compare what I'm doing to what he's done. He's probably one of the greatest if not the greatest player of all time; there's no comparison. I really wish people would stop measuring up what I do to in comparison to what he's done." It's not fair for us, the younger generation to be constantly compared to such greatness - from myself to LeBron James to other young players. You're talking about Magic Johnson, you're talking about Michael Jordan, we can't measure up to them." </div>
Right, and if you believe Kobe is actually being sincere with those comments, I've got some magic beans for ya.
