Did Kobe Bryant Expect to 4 Peat?
Did Kobe Bryant expect to 4 Peat? This is from an interview conducted by Lisa Guerrero during the 2002-2003 season. The Lakers had won 3 straight NBA championships leading up to this. Full interview by Lisa Guerrero: https://youtu.be/VJpdL_l1FXI Excerpt from ‘John Salley reveals Phil Jackson benched Kobe Bryant in 81-point game to prevent him from scoring 100’ article by David Akerman: Former Lakers champ John Salley recently offered some interesting insight regarding the contest. Salley claims that then-Lakers head coach Phil Jackson benched Bryant during the game because “some records need to stand.” “I didn’t agree with something Phil Jackson said to me,” Salley began. “… I said, ‘Phil, Kobe had 81. No matter what you do, he was about to get 104.’ They would’ve kept feeding him the ball. The other side would’ve been like, ‘Don’t hurt him.’ But, there would’ve been clearouts, and Kobe would’ve got 104. “He goes, ‘Well, some records need to stand.’ And I was like, ‘Wow.’ He goes, ‘He’s No. 2. He doesn’t need to be No. 1.'” Full article: https://lakersdaily.com/john-salley-reveals-phil-jackson-benched-kobe-bryant-in-81-point-game-to-prevent-him-from-scoring-100/amp/ 🏷 #would #be #cocky #lakers #lakersnation #kobelakers #kobebryantlakers #kobela #kobelegacy #kobeslegacy #nba #nbahighlights #nbainterview #nbainterviews #kobebryant
