Kobe Bryant Grantland Interview

Not really even remotely excited about the OKC-Miami game tomorrow night. Actually-more into a kind of somber sadness of seeing Kobe Bryant look so incredibly bad last night losing to the horrific 76’ers. This is not the way legends should exit. Michael did not exit like this even with the Wizards. Tim Duncan is not exiting like this with the Spurs. It’s kind of very sad when you think about it.

I used to hate Kobe. Just hated the guy until I took the time to really listen to him. Then–I ended up loving him. I’ll never forget — he was talking about film making  and Quinton Tarantino movies–and he just floored me. I had no idea how smart of guy he was and how he saw his teams from a team building standpoint and specific roles.

Even though Bill Simmons is a complete douchebag—I love this interview.
