one thing thats becoming really apparent hearing these dudes commentary on sports programs...

pierce, chauncey, stack, t mack, matt barnes, jalen, etc. these dudes have such a profound genuine respect for kobe and his approach to the game. its almost complete deference thats been earned through countless wars.

jordan got that from his contemporaries too.

iono if its bron or just this generation of players...but players dont seem to really look at bron the same way.
