Everything negative - pressure, challenges - is all an opportunity for me to rise.

My parents are my backbone. Still are. They're the only group that will support you if you score zero or you score 40.

Only God can stop Kobe Bryant.
-
I've been quoted in the past and I will continue to be quoted; I think he's the best player in our league right now.
-
He's definitely the best player in the NBA - to me. I don't know if winning the (MVP) award is important to him or not. But he has three (championship) rings and that's what it's all about.
-
I think Kobe Bryant should be at the top of the (MVP) list. His game is unstoppable.
-
I give him all the respect in the world. He is the No. 1 player in the league, by far. It’s like that. With a player like him, he just wants that challenge. He’s just that fierce competitor. He doesn’t want to get out-showed. He’s the one who everybody’s afraid of.
-
He's an unbelievable player. He's God's gift, something that's going to flash before our eyes and I don't think it's ever going to happen again. The only person I can think about he's catching up with is Michael Jordan.

You can set the bar at seven and a half feet and tell them nobody has every jumped that before. And they say, 'I can do it.' And they'll go out and try.

These young guys are playing checkers. I'm out there playing chess.
-
There's been a lot of talk of me being a one-man show but that's simply not the case. We win games when I score 40 points and we've won when I score 10.
-
I'll do whatever it takes to win games, whether it's sitting on a bench waving a towel, handing a cup of water to a teammate, or hitting the game-winning shot.
