    Default Kobe Bryant - one of the Great Post NBA careers

    After Kobe Retired:


    - Wins oscar talking about basketball.
    - Does countless interviews talking about the game.
    - Had amazing analysis on plays with "detail".
    - Was working on children's books
    - Heavily involved with coaching and promoting women's basketball

    Amongst many other things. Imagine having Kobe for another 20-30 years.

    I miss Kobe sometimes.

    RIP mamba

    He was huge for the game, still had alot more to give for sure. One of the most polarizing to ever do it but you had to put some respeck....on his name.

    He was also savvy in business, he made a $6 million investment in a sports drink and turned it into a $200 million dollar return.

    Ikr. But the academy itself could have been within the metro, not outskirts of it.

    This I agree with. I wasn't a fan when he played but I got to respect what he did after retiring. I respect the authenticity and the drive and willingness to influence/help others are respectable.

    Sentiment when he was alive was he was mediocre at everything you laid out

    His details show was underwhelming

    The Oscar was a joke, given off name value alone

    Working on children books?

    Supporting his daughters basketball hobby? . Whi cares.


    He did nothing noteworthy after retiring.
