Kobe Studying Paul Pierce’s Adjustment to Getting Older

kobepierceKlKobe Bryant just recently turned 36 and nobody knows what he’ll look like once he finally returns to the court. He probably doesn’t even know. Since he’ll be a different player from the last time we saw him, Kobe is looking to refine his game to match his age. In order to do so, he’s reportedly studying Paul Pierce’s game. From day 1, Pierce was never super quick or crazy athletic, so this may be a good idea by Kobe.

In preparing for this season, Bryant told friends that the player he is analyzing, as an example of adjusting your game as you get older, is fellow 36-year-old Paul Pierce. This is part of his goal to become “more efficient” on the court.

Said Bryant, “I’m going to max [my last two years] out too, to do whatever I can. Leave no stone unturned, no water left in the sponge.”
