With every great scorer, there’s always somebody who is perceived as being the best at shutting him down. Or, at least coming close to it.
Now that Kobe has decided to call it career at season’s end, he sat down with TNT’s Ernie Johnson to reflect on certain aspects of his career. Among the many topics, EJ asked Kobe who was the best “Kobe stopper.” Surprisingly, he actually named names on the toughest defenders. I was fully expecting the answer to be “me.”
A few years ago, Kobe probably would’ve laughed this question off. But he shows love to some of the league’s best.
