The Kobe Bryant interview: ‘I’m not sad at all’

April 12 23:00 2016

The average price for a ticket to the Lakers game in Los Angeles is listed at over $2,100 and selling for about $1,400.

Bryant scored 13 points total – all made within the first quarter.

“I remember when Michael Jordan was on his way out and Kobe didn’t take it easy on him”, Thunder forward Kevin Durant said. But that’s when Harden appeared to have had enough with the vocal Lakers contingent and the possibility of another embarrassing loss. In the fourth quarter, the crowd started chanting “We want Kobe“, and “Kobe“, but the Thunder had the game well in hand. But I embraced that fear, and then I let it go. “Whether competing in the Finals or hoisting jump shots after midnight in an empty gym, Kobe has an unconditional love for the game”. Regardless, teams went on and paid their respects even if it was Kobe himself who crushed dreams and hearts of opposing teams with his plays during his prime. Lakers coach Byron Scott called that moment “the toughest period in his lifetime dealing with his career”.

Lakers vs Thunder Monday in Oklahoma City – The Los Angeles Lakers (16-64) will visit the Oklahoma City Thunder (54-26) on Monday at the Chesapeake Energy Arena. I wasn’t going to put him in for a minute. Bryant has never been a spectacular three point shooter with just a 33 percent career average. Bryant, who entered the league straight from high school, finished scoreless in 6:22 minutes. “Just kind of reminisce over the 20 years that we’ve known each other and reminisce a little bit over the last two years”.

Wednesday will be one of the biggest nights in National Basketball Association history as the game says goodbye to a legend and hello to a new king in the record books.

This season’s year-long farewell tour has at times felt totally wrong for Kobe Bean. It’s the end of the era and his shoe sponsors Nike declared two days back that 13th of April will be celebrated as “Mamba Day” in honour of Bryant’s 20-year career. “It needs to be appreciated”.

Still, Scott sounded courteous enough not to challenge Bryant to a game of golf. Had we been competing for a championship, there’s no way I’d allow all this to happen.
