My parents are supportive of me, whatever school I go to.
There's no better way to start your career than by playing probably the best guy in the league.

Being able to provide for your kids in a way that maybe your parents couldn't do for you is a great feeling.
If I see a spider in my room, I gotta sleep on the couch for, like, two days.

When I play bad, I don't get too down on myself. When I play good, I don't get too hot.
When I was, like, 4 or 5, I'd just always tell - my mom would ask me what I wanted to be when I got older. And I would just be like, 'I wanna be Kobe.' She'd be like, 'You wanna be in the NBA?' 'No, like, I wanna be Kobe.'
