Ever since Kobe Bryant retired from the NBA, he’s still be sticking around in the mainstream media. ESPN has given him a platform to create with DETAIL and MUSE, but his company is already responsible for an Oscar with Dear Basketball.
In talking to The Rich Eisman Show about some of his new cartoons in the works, he spoke on a myriad of topics concerning himself and the Los Angeles Lakers.
We know there have been some rumors about him going to the BIG3, but he stressed in this interview he is never coming back to the game of basketball. There is a zero percent chance. He doesn’t think about it, he doesn’t hope for it and the fact people boxed him into just being a player that couldn’t amount to anything else, he made it his mission to prove those people wrong.
In terms of the Lake Show, the Black Mamba said he’s been working out with Kyle Kuzma and talks to Rob Pelinka about the state of the team all the time. He also addresses fans who are mad at LeBron James for coming to L.A., saying that they should want championships and he’s one player that can bring those back to town.
He also spoke on the things he learned from Phil Jackson, coaching his daughter and her team the Triangle Offense, life after retirement and more.
Watch his 15-minute interview with Rich above. They had some comedy at the end.
