I just got the new slam mag, they got an interview with KOBE, they talk about all the hating and all that. Here is some.
SLAM: YOu have 3 rings, do you feel like you've quieted the doubters about your priorities, let them know what you are about?
KOBE: Well, thats funny, and that brings us to another point. Lets rewind a little bit... I read that somebody said "Kobe would never do it on his own" Well, do what? ZWhat are you talking about? Because if you are talking about socring 30, 35 points, i could do that for you. Now if you are talking about winning rings, on my own? I can't do that for you. WHo can? Nobody has. You know, Shaquille hasn't done it on his own. JOrdan. You know, if you go back in history, you can run this down for days. So if you are talking about individual success, i can give that to you on another team. But if you are talking about rings, nah, i won't even touch that. I need the big fella.
SLAM: Anything else on your mind?
KOBE: Yea. I har some players say "Well Kobe couldn't do this on his own" or whatever. I saw that [censored] coming a mile away. All they are trying to do is derail my focus. If i go out there and i start trying to prove people wrong, like i can do thi son my own, then maybe we don't get a ring. And im not gonna do that. So if thats their strategy, they need a new one.
SLAM: So its just a lot of hate out there, even with other dudes in the league. Do you think you'll ever understand it?
KOBE: Some might be jealous beacuse i play with Shaq, and some might be jealous because i play in LA. But to be really honest, that helped me give up a lot of my individual game and blend in with shaq, because i know how much people hate seeing me win. I kno wwhat i can do individually, but right now ima keep on winnin and make every single one of yall hate my guts. Cause they know i can get 30, but they just hate seeing me win. So ima do what i do and just keep on winnin and make yall mad.
There are ALOT of good questions in that interview but i can't type the whole thing so pick up the new slam mag, its awesome.
