I used to watch, you know, study the games of the Bulls teams and you know, watch their demeanor, watch their composure, you know, play in a tough place like Utah, get to the Finals and be down 17, but they were all like that. , you could not. I don't know if they were down 17 or up 20 or a tied game and they never changed and I was wondering why the hell is that like that and that's why I started doing more research and when it came I immediately gravitated towards it and then I found myself accepting the challenge of finding what's that space and for the 81 point game and to be honest I wasn't even thinking about the game my knee was hurting so much I didn't know it at the time but you know how to shake some cartilage stuck in my joint. line and then my mom was really trying to go to a place where she didn't feel that pain and the game started and that's why she was in a different space.
I wasn't worried about what was to come. I wasn't worried. about what just happened, I was just here and when you are there in the moment and you play plays right in front of you, your concentration increases because nothing else matters, perhaps the biggest change in Bryant this season is his transformation from student of the play to teacher teaching the game to some of our young players teaching the game some of the nuances of the intricacies of the tribal offense in Devon Georgia is a clean brush and a particle of Janeiro is teaching them some of the rhythms and testing I think that It has been the main business, do you feel?
I mean, do you feel like one of the latecomers? No, I'm not walking with a limp every day and you know, having to go to the labs every day. I'm not at that stage yet, yet. teach someone about the old timers because they are there now and they say if you think these seven years went by fast, wait for the next step and then you will have something in your equipment that will tell you how old they seem. I mean, I'm sure you've learned a lot about that in the context of all the sponsorship deals you've had throughout your career, some of them are amazing, some of them maybe less so, so finally, what have you learned? when going through that? process the backup process, yeah, well you've heard a lot, I've seen so many different sides of that spectrum, you know who the best in the world are and do it with those that have a name, maybe it's not like that and you see how to operate, see how they think culturally, how they are different, knowing how they communicate, whether they are proud of companies that have a complete approach, others, of the Loulou approach and why not try to bring it back, and you know, I have really learned a lot through osmosis. you know, being 18 or 17 years old and starting that journey, so at the age of six I was already strategizing against other six year olds, you know, at the age of six I discovered that six year olds don't They could dribble with their left hand, so I said yes. a lot of 12 year olds can't dribble with their left, yeah I would imagine six so like I was playing with these six year olds I would make them dribble with their left because I knew they couldn't so they dribbled with their left . foot would pick it up let it do it again dribble one foot pick it up late put on a shoe so I had 63 points but you know, I'll do a lot of research, I'll read and I'll just write Some of you know, sit there and watch a lot of Doc's and try to learn everything that I can and you know, if I'm watching something and suddenly a question pops into my head, I have to know the answer.
I know I can't just say "okay", I have this question, I just let it go, no, I need to know, okay, I'll call too, okay, if you ended your career without a championship, you wouldn't have seen it as a failure no , I would consider it as a big disappointment because I had a dream and I had goals that I want to achieve correctly and if I don't achieve those goals I have to ask myself why it is okay, if so, for my position, the reason The reason why I wouldn't have achieved those things is from poor leadership, from not communicating properly when my teammates have put them in positions to succeed, from lack of preparation, you know, all of those things would be reasons why I wouldn't win right now, if that were For example, in my career I have to sit down and analyze that and then as I move and evolve, you know, after basketball in business or whatever, those same weaknesses will reveal themselves right there, so if not I learn from that, I'm going to fight here too, so I can take those situations and learn from them and have them make me a better person later in life, but if I don't take those things and apply them somewhere else, then that That's failing, which to me is the worst thing you can do is stop and not learn how to play against guys like Shaq and Kobe, they lend the sky to Eddie Jones, so take them out, it's been a great chain game so far, really I'm enjoying it.
I'm enjoying it to the fullest, how can people on a daily basis put that Mamba mentality into their routine? know if you're doing something why don't you try to be great at it why don't you know if you're preparing for an exam if you're a carpenter whatever it is study all the great carpenters that came before you I know it's amazing to be the best at doing that, so greatness has no limitations of industry and curiosity because I asked a lot of questions. You know, playing with Byron Scott. I asked him many questions. Eddie Jones, who was great at chasing cars. the screens and he didn't understand how to do it.
I would sit with him before practice, after practice. Magic James Worthy Kurt Rambis Kareem Abdul all the greats of the Lakers. He would always sit me down and ask them questions about certain games I've studied. growing up, what really happened, what did you feel, why you know, hard bird to defend, why because you seem slow to me, I'm like I'm missing something, so tell me what I'm missing, you know what I mean and so who always asked questions and tried to learn everything he could, but what it means to lose seems exciting to you. Why is it exciting?
Because it means you have different ways to improve. There are certain things you can discover. Take advantage of, sure, certain weaknesses that were exposed that you need to shore up, so it was exciting, I mean, it sucks to lose, but at the same time, his answers are there, if you just look at them because you get the information by losing more. than winning probably yes, yes, I mean, the answers are there when you win; you just have to look at them, yeah right, so it's a constant process, it's exciting when you win, it's exciting when you lose, because the process should be exactly the same whether you win or lose, you go back and look and find things you could have done better .
You find things that you have done well and that worked. Find out how they worked. Why did they work? How can you get them working again? Yes. and but the most difficult thing is to face those things, it's a really difficult challenge, you mean? I remember when I first had the idea to build a studio, I contacted Oprah and we were on the phone for an hour and a half talking and her giving me incredible words of wisdom on how to do it because it's my responsibility to do it for the next generation who can also have questions.
I mean, that's what we do, we help each other. I think it drives me crazy when people say, well, you guys are all in this pot, you're all fighting for the same thing, so you pit one against the other, whether it's me or bran or bran and Kady says you're treading, things also happen and it doesn't make sense and we We all need to help each other, so I think it's part of my responsibility to do so.
