Kobe Bryant is opening up in a way we’ve never seen before, actually admitting that he liked some of his teammates over the years, even naming his favorite four.
In what can be described as shocking, Kobe’s closest teammates has never actually been in the Black Mamba’s home.
Check out this excerpt in Caron Butler‘s autobiography, “Tuff Juice: My Journey from the Streets to the NBA.”
It’s very rare for me to open up to somebody like that, but I just had a connection with him. He’s one of my favorite teammates.
When that happens, it makes the season better. It doesn’t always happen. It’s not something that I need to happen, but there are certain players that I just automatically get along with. You gravitate to each other because you eye to eye on things and you get along extremely well. And Caron was one of those players.
There aren’t many like that. There’s Caron, there’s Pau, there’s D. Fish, and Ronnie Turiaf. That’s four guys in a twenty-year career.
We know he loves, Pau, while it’s hilarious that Fisher has never even been in Bryant’s driveway. Butler is an amazing guy that everybody loves and respects, while Turiaf might be the most puzzling admission.
