[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of fans we’re telling personal stories about how he took time out to talk with them, and do nice gestures.  When people got injured, like Durant, apparently Kobe was the first to call. He was apparently very humble off the court. [/quote]

you need to learn more adjectives. being nice to someone in need does not make one humble. [/quote]You need to learn a little bit about the word ‘humble’. He didn’t just help people in need, but took time with fans, and used his platform to help lots of people. Now, if you want to discuss the fact that his DNA had an ego attached to it, ok you got me. Any NBA player to get to that league has an ego as it comes with the confidence to be great and expectations to be there. 
However, as much as any NBA player, the last 20 years, he used it for some good off the court. On the court, he thought he was the best and he was, as he’d try to crush you.

again, helpful, friendly, generous and humble are different things. i don't understand why you insist that he must be humble - the work nobody ever used to describe him while he was alive.[/quote]At least make true statements. I’ve heard many people say that they couldn’t believe how down to earth he was when he was alive. [/quote]

There is somebody on this thread that does not understand that you can be self confident and humble and also does not understand "leave it on the court".[/quote]

off the court Kobe Bryant compared himself to Walt Disney in his ability to create imaginary worlds. he was insanely arrogant.[/quote]

You don't honestly think all that talent comes at no price, do you? Arrogance is a by-product of the talent[/quote]

oh, i actually do get it. not that it is a by-product, exactly, but that it can be very helpful and even necessary for success. which makes denying kobe's arrogance ("such a humble man") all the more preposterous.[/quote]
