People are wondering aloud if Kobe should hang em up, but Kobe says that wouldn’t be very smart on their part.
“Lucky it wasn’t a meniscus,” Bryant told Yahoo Sports on Thursday afternoon. …
Everything is conspiring against Bryant now, and the declarations of his demise promise to grow louder and louder. He is 35 years old, fighting back from an Achilles tear, a fractured kneecap and awaiting the start of a $48.5 million extension over the next two years. The walls are closing, his path to restoration never so perilous, and yet here was Kobe Bryant on Thursday afternoon making clear his belief on those who’d dare doubt his resolve again.
“Only an idiot would,” Bryant told Yahoo Sports.
Kobe will come back, but he will never be KOBE again, the question is what % of Kobe will we be seeing in these last years?
75%, 60%, 50%, 25%?
Only Father Time will tell.
