    true story, back in college I was trying to lose the freshman 15 and was hitting the gym everyday of the summer at around 6 am to 6:30 ish, kobe was there everyday working on his shots and lifting, and then usually leaves by 8:30-9 am before most people started coming in. if i were as rich and set as he is, heck, i probably would've said f.k it i am sleeping in today on most of the days

    He definitely deserves to be up there with the greats. Admirable work ethic.

    Going to be like Jordan...knowing that he can still play, but physically wont be able to play...

    Kobe has mastered the mental aspect of the game, and its remarkable that his physical gifts are still ever present...

    Well he isn't ALWAYS working on his craft... He still finds time to rape teenage girls.

    Think, if this story is true, he does stuff like this with new people one time to cover up PED use. Good to have witnesses testifying to your work ethic.
    Also, he doesn't play a lick of defense. So I call bs on this whole story. If he really works all night why can't he play both ends of the floor.

    I doubt he worked harder than Yao. Yao developed his skinny frame to the point where he was the dominant force on the low block. Besides Shaq, no one was as strong. Even with a broken body, he was constantly rehabbing in the gym with his clothes soaked in sweat.

    Lesser chuckers get fatigued around 20 shots, but because Kobe puts in the hours he can easily keep chucking past 30 shots, 40 shots, one time damn near 50 shots. He is just the king of volume shooting and you have to credit his work ethic for that.

    Because of steroids? Hahahaha, yep.

    I kid, I kid. I really hope Lebron isn't taking steroids.
