Who in this world does not know Kobe Bryant? Everybody definitely knows him even those people who don’t watch NBA games. Perhaps you saw him on TV endorsement, read about him on newspaper or even hear about him on radio or television news and interviews.
He is one of the best players in the history of NBA (National Basketball Association). Besides he was awarded as the NBA Players of the decade right after the 59th Annual NBA All-Star game In Dallas. Among the seven NBA star contenders, Kobe single-out and get the edge over other NBA stars such as Tim Duncan of San Antonio Spurs, Kevin Garnett of Boston Celtics, LeBron James of Cleveland Cavaliers, Steve Nash of Phoenix Suns, and Shaquille O’Neal also from Cleveland Cavaliers. Among these NBA stars Tim Duncan is his tough contender.
As usual after the proclamation of Kobe Bryant as the NBA Players of the decade, many ask this question: Does he merits to be the NBA Players of the decade? Certainly, some say yes and others say no. We have our own perception about it however undeniably “numbers” has spoken the fact that Kobe Bryant deserves it. Kobe Bryant got this figures; 28.2 points per game, 5.9 rebounds, and 5.2 assists, one MVP, four titles while Tim Duncan got; 21.2 points per game, 11.7 rebounds, and 3.3 assists, two MVPs, three titles.
Then again the votes for the NBA players of the decade also got by Kobe wherein he got 55% votes and Duncan got 45%. The 10% edge is reasonably good enough to be proclaimed as the NBA Players of the decade.
Over the decade there was no player in the NBA history who perked up and gets better and better on his game each offseason. Definitely this is the end result of his passion and hard work and right at this moment no one actually shows the determination he shown up on each games he played. No one actually reach his level yet.
Is Kobe Bryant the next Michael Jordan? Kobe’s number is 24, which is next to Michael Jordan’s number 23. In this day and age he is often replicated as the next Michael Jordan for his enthusiasm and willpower that he showed on each game.
In recent times, Bryant failed to play for he suffered sprained on his left ankle thus keep him off the All- Star Game too. Despite the fact that Kobe can not play on, his team Lakers won three consecutive games. Kobe will play his 1,000th games and that at 32 he will become the youngest player of NBA who arrive at that signpost which was held by Kevin Garnett of Boston Celtics.
