On January 10, Beijing time, just when the NBA 2022 All-Star starting lineup voting was hot, it reminded us of the vote king for many years, when we only mentioned the All-Star vote, I believe that whether it is his fans or his black fans, they will think of him for the first time, he is a generation of basketball legends ~ ~ ~ Kobe Bryant.
Although he is no longer there, the scene of his 20 years in the NBA league still appears in front of our eyes, with countless reputations, making the NBA league shine with his own brilliance. On the All-Star game every year, perhaps Kobe Bryant has the easiest and happiest day of his basketball career, because in today's game, the best players in the league are gathered here, and for Kobe, who loves challenges, this day gives him the opportunity to challenge the league's outstanding players, not so much that the All-Stars belong to the NBA League, but more to Kobe.
Bryant, the youngest All-Star starter. In 1998, the second year that Bryant came to the NBA league, Kobe Bryant was just emerging and won the favor of many fans, and Bryant was elected the all-star starting lineup that year, becoming the youngest all-star starting lineup in the league's history. Bryant was also unable to follow the joy of patience in the interview, he gladly said: This is his first All-Star, to be able to play with the best players, it is simply incredible, the election to the All-Star starting lineup encouraged him a lot, and he also strives to be a good player like them (it turns out that he did).
Kobe Athletic Jordan. For that All-Star, I believe that the most exciting thing for Kobe bryant is to be able to challenge Jordan, before the game, Jordan also said in the locker room that he would try the strength of the young player, and he would not let him. In that game, Kobe Bryant was not inferior at all, facing the leading player in the league Jordan did not have the slightest timidity, but constantly challenged Jordan, kobe at that time was certainly not Jordan's opponent, but we kobe bryant constantly challenged, halftime in the locker room, Jordan for the first time revealed his recognition of Kobe, and said that the future of this young man is unlimited. In this all-name game, Bryant showed his offensive talent to the fullest, with 18 points to win the highest score of the Western Conference All-Star, for the first time to come to the All-Star, Kobe Bryant did not live up to everyone's expectations of him. Jordan scored 23 points to take the all-Star MVP throne and lead the Eastern Conference to a 135-114 victory. Kobe Bryant said in a post-game interview: Jordan is worthy of being the best player in the NBA league, he deserves it, he really admires it, and will continue to consult in the future.
Bryant's first All-Star MVP. That was in the 2002 All-Star game, when the current year's All-Star was held in Feicheng, when Kobe Bryant became a public enemy of Philadelphia in the 2001 Finals, for such an All-Star game, Kobe Bryant of course was not willing to show weakness, after the game was accepted, Kobe Got 31 points, 5 rebounds and 5 assists, leading the Western Conference All-Stars to win the game at 135:120, Kobe Bryant was naturally the well-deserved MVP of that All-Star, and Kobe Bryant also got his first All-Star MVP.
Today, Kobe Bryant is no longer there, but Mamba's spirit of not accepting defeat lives on, he has never denied Jordan, but he constantly challenges Jordan to surpass him, to be the best of himself, to pay tribute to Kobe.
