Everyting negative - pressure, challenges - is all an opportunity for me to rise.
You can't be held captive by the fear of failure or the fear of what people may say.
I don't want to be the next Michael Jordan, I only want to be Kobe Bryant.
When you have empathy toward your opponents, it helps you destroy them quicker. Because you understand exactly who they are. You understand what buttons to push. You understand if they're insecure, if they fear embarrassment. And you can really hit those buttons to strike a nerve.
It's just a matter of getting those legs back.
I'll do whatever it takes to win games, whether it's sitting on a bench waving a towel, handing a cup of water to a teammate, or hitting the game-winning shot.
