A great basketball player

To talk about a great basketball player as my first blogger -- Kobe Bryant.

Kobe Bryant (born August 23, 1978) is an American retired professional basketball player. He played his entire 20-year career with the Los Angeles Lakers of the NBA. He entered the NBA directly from high school and won five NBA championships with the Lakers. Bryant is an 18-time All-Star, 15-time member of the All NBA team, and 12-time member of the All-Defensive team. He Led the NBA scoring during two seasons, and ranks third on both the league's all time regular and all time postseason scoring lists. He holds the NBA record for the most seasons playing with one franchise for an entire career. Kobe Bryant is son of former NBA player Joe Bryant, Kobe Bryant enjoyed a successful high school basketball career at Lower Merion High school in Pennsylvania, where he was recognized as the top high school basketball player in the country. He declared for the NBA drift upon graduation, and was selected with the 13th overall pick in the 1996 NBA draft by the Charlotte Hornets, who traded him to the Los Angeles Lakers. As a rookie, Bryant earned himself a reputation as a high-flyer and a fan favorite by winning the 1997 Slam, and he was named an All-Star by his second season. Despite a feun between them. Bryant and Shaquille O'Neal led the Lakers to three consecutive championships from 2000 to 2002. At 34 years and 104 days of age, Bryant became the youngest player in league history to reach 30,000 career points. He is also the all-time leading scorer in Lakers franchise history. Following his second year in the league, Bryant was chosen to start every All-Star Game until his retirement for a record 18 consecutive appearances, and his four All-Star awards are tied for the most in NBA history. At the 2008 and 2012 Summer Olympics.he won gold medals as a member of the U.S.national team.

As we know, Micheal Jorden is the most famous basketball player in history. "If Bryant can play basketball in the same period with Jorden, who will win the game or become the most famous player? " I always see this discussion question. Now in my opinion, both of them are the best. Using words to discribe Jorden and Bryant respectively. Jorden can be represented by "genius" and " love".  He love play basketball since young child. From childhood period, Jorden shows  more genius skill on basketball than others. Bryant can be represented by "insist" and "clinging". He was used more time than any others for training everyday. Pricticing shooting again and again. He was insist on the match even in badly injured.  Now Bryant already retirement a month. I wanne add a video for commemorate this great basketball player.
