[Kobe Bryant Stories & Motivation @kobehighlight]

22-year-old Kobe Bryant put on a shotmaking clinic in Game 3 of the 2001 NBA Finals.

No falling on every shot.

No flopping.

Just buckets. 🔥

When high schooler Jalen Brunson met Kobe Bryant in 2014:

“Why work if you don’t want to be the best?” 🐍

Kobe Bryant on mental health awareness: “It is not a sign of weakness.”

“Let’s face the challenge individually but understand that we’re facing that challenge collectively.” 💎

[Jacob @Jacobtheclipper]

The battles between Kobe and Melo were special. I miss this NBA.

No flopping
Real physical defense
Real rivalry
Back and forth neither ducking the other

Now stars switch off and guard a role player. No pride.✌️

Every couple of years, I rewatch The Last Dance just to reconnect with the greatness and dominance that MJ embodied.

If anyone knows a similar documentary, series, or piece of work, please share. I’m always looking for inspiration.

LeBron Rigged the system so that he could keep winning.He pretty much cheated the game for rings in a sense & failed mostly in the process.That’s why he consistently downplays “Ring Culture”. If things would’ve went the way he thought it would,he’d embrace it

But it didn’t

Rajon Rondo closed his AAU timeout by preaching one thing — play off two feet.

Not a play. Not a trick. Just jump stops.

And watching his son Pierre and his teammates execute it is all the proof you need that this concept works at every single level of the game.

The jump stop puts you in control. Not the defense.

“LeBron has high iq and is skilled”

No, Bron impresses you dummies who never played before. Anyone that has hooped even on the high school level clearly sees how awkward and unskilled Bron is.

The Hakeem workouts showed this well

KOBE BRYANT ON MENTAL TOUGHNESS

🎯 “Being mentally tough means you can take your mind someplace else.

Concentrate on that other thing to the point where the thing that was bothering you is no longer a focus and you don’t feel it anymore.”

[Chase Jordan @goatcollect]

When Jerry Went in on shooting technique with a 7 year old. Unbelievable intensity and passion for the game - and a deep desire to share his love and knowledge.

That is why he is the LOGO!

If Basketball had a child, it would be Jerry West! 🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀

They all said he wasn’t attractive, but she held her balloon and after hearing how he treats women they all regretted 😭😂

The Fact about UConn MBB:

Every Final Four they appeared in they win the national championship the only year they didn’t do it is in 2009

Kobe Bryant: "Failure doesn't exist, it's a figment of your imagination"

An interviewer asks: "Are you someone who loves to win or hates to lose?"

Kobe responds:

"I'm neither. I play to figure things out. I play to learn something. Because if you play with a fear of failure or you play with the will to win that supersedes fear, I think it's a weakness either way. If you play with fear of failing, you'll capitulate to that fear. If you play with the sense of 'I want to win, I want to win,' then you have the fear of what happens if you don't. But if you find common ground in the center, you're unfazed by either. That enables you to stay in the moment and not feel anything other than what's in front of you."

The interviewer asks: "How did you become someone who doesn't seem afraid of failing?"

Kobe responds:

"What does failure mean? It doesn't exist. It's a figment of your imagination."

He explains with an analogy:

"Let's use happy endings. Everybody wants a happy ending, right? Snow White finds her prince and lives happily ever after. Well, I call BS on that because two months later, they had an argument and he's sleeping on the couch. The point is: the story continues. So if you fail on Monday, the only way it's a failure is if you decide to not progress from that. If I fail today, I'm going to learn something from that failure and try again on Tuesday. That's why failure doesn't exist."

The interviewer asks: "If you finished your career without a championship, would you have looked at that as a failure?"

Kobe:

"No. I would look at it as being extremely disappointed, because I had a dream and goals I wanted to accomplish. If I didn't accomplish those goals, I'd have to ask myself why. Poor leadership? Failure to communicate with my teammates? Lack of preparation? Those would be reasons why I didn't win. So I'd have to analyze that. And as I evolved post-basketball into business, those same weaknesses would reveal themselves there too. If I don't learn from that, I'm going to struggle again."

He concludes:

"I can take those situations and learn from them and have them make me a better person later in life. But if I don't take that stuff and apply it someplace else, that's failing. The worst possible thing you can ever do is to stop. It's to not learn."
