Kobe Bryant’s high usage is well-established. He’s still taking 29 percent of his team’s shots, well ahead of second-place Carmelo Anthony (24 percent).
But the Lakers guard can turn a phrase on an old topic.
Baxter Holmes of ESPN:
I asked Kobe a/b his many shots. Kobe: "I’d rather not have to do that, but you can’t just sit back and watch crime happen in front of you."
