Well, I met Kobe while he was still in HS. A blind guy could tell he was going to be a pro, even then, he was a total jerk then. A bad kid.

I was use to dealing with high level HS talent, but he took the cake. I told his father that I cannot use him on my team. He was the best player by far, but the headache was to much.

Over the years, I watched him make many mistakes, BUT, I’m happy to say, I watched him grow up. Mature would be a better term. I’m sorry for the families and for all the things Kobe was involved in these days. Some real good stuff. So RIP young man.
