The former Laker admits that Kobe was a bit of a cocky youngster when the two played together in Los Angeles, but everything he said he was going to do, he did it, according to quote from Payton in Shaq’s book, My Story: Shaq Uncut:
“Kobe was so young and so immature in some ways, but I can tell you this: everything Kobe is doing now, he told me all the way back then he was going to do it. We were sitting on the bus once and he told me, “I’m going to be the number one scorer for the Lakers, I’m going to win five or six championships, and I’m going to be the best player in the game.” I was like, “Okay, whatever.” Then he looked me right in the eye and said, “I’m going to be the Will Smith of the NBA.”

What he should have said was "Sorry".
I mean Kobe singlehandedly stole a title from the hands of Karl Malone and Glove.
It makes for a better Foot Locker commercial this way but still...

Kobe carried those scrubs to the Finals and gave them a chance. Billups lit the Glove up like no other - has to thank him for that FMVP. Sheed abused the mailman. You would think with the Colorado drama around Kobe in the Finals that these old timers would step up but they did not - like they didn't all throughout that season. Kobe had a bad shooting series for a variety of factors including but not limited to: the opponents defense/off-court drama/shaq drama/season drama. Kobe nonetheless did his job on the defensive end shutting down Hamilton - a weapon for Detroit coming into that series.
I don't expect ignorant clowns to know jack sh1t from a series or season they never followed, nor watched.

Sounds made up.
Kobe was already huge when he played with Payton. On another note, anyone remember Payton on the Lakers? :lol

Yeah. Tyler Perry is his own boss and gets 100% of the profits from his projects. Will Smith is getting paid by another man to do a movie role.

You might want to re-watch that series, since everyone other than Shaq & Kobe played like absolute garbage. Glove averaged like 4 & 4 on 30% shooting, Malone was injured and a non-factor.
Thanks to Kobe we didn't get swept.
