Recently, NBA legend "General" Arenas recently talked about Kobe's topic in his podcast.

"Bryant is the hero of the United States. We always say that any player who can represent the United States is actually Kobe. He did not enter the NBA with a golden spoon in his mouth. He was also treated coldly in the early days. He started as a substitute and worked hard to become the starter step by step. Even when he was criticized when he made a major decision and even faced the risk of being deprived of everything, he still insisted on fighting. In 2004, the US men's basketball team performed poorly in the Olympics and needed a hero to save the situation in 2008, he stood up, lived up to expectations, and became that superhero again. This is what we see in film and television works." The general said.
