Most people don't know that Mike D'Antoni (Knicks Head Coach) was Kobe's favorite player growing up in Italy. Early in his career with the Lakers, Bryant chose to wear the numeral 8, D'Antoni's old jersey number with the Olimpia Milano. It is the Garden and everyone wants to dominate, I am sure that was a little extra motivation.
Kobe isn't even close to Jordan status.
Len Bias would have been better than Jordan, had he lived.
