Young Kobe and how long it takes youth to develop

#1
Unrelated to our team, but here's a video of Kobe from way back. Might be interesting to compare him with our own young guys (in terms of time it takes to develop/ star potential etc)

Wow. Really apparent how much a young Kobe endeavored to play like Jordan. Down to the mannerisms even. And he had the talent to pull it off. It was clear that he was special even then.

Kobe is an all time great, can't really compare our players to him, a Kobe level talent comes around once every 15-20 years.(Jordan, Kobe, Durant). Along with the talent is just the obsession with wanting to be the greatest. A lot of guys have the talent but don't have that obsession that Jordan or Kobe did.(T-Mac, Vince Carter), Durant is still up for judgement.
