艾弗森亲笔:我爱你,科比(3)

The most cold-blooded serial killer I've ever seen, the fiercest competitor I've ever seen. I remember hearing the story that you were on the road, and you were watching the highlights of me dropping 35 on the Knicks at the Garden our rookie year,

and you got so mad that you smashed up the hotel room and you started researching me like you were in the CIA. "GET ME THE FILE ON A.I." - I bet it was like that. Studying how great white sharks hunt down seals in the Pacific Ocean and whatnot.

What I love about that story is, it's the truth. That was just our relationship. Two dudes pushing each other to greatness. The next time you came through Philly, you were ALL up in my sh*t. There was no half-stepping you.

Every first step, I had to go 100. You're 6′ 6″, and it was like you wanted to guard me. You wanted the challenge. You wanted to show me that you were the baddest motherf***er to ever play the game.

And I didn't want ANY part of Kobe Bryant on the other end!!!!! Man, hell no!!!!!! I'm not stopping you, nobody is stopping you. You were KOBE, and you were gonna do whatever you wanted to do out there,

because you were a sniper, an assassin, a cold-blooded killer...
