Kobe gave a great shout out to Byron in his mamba mentality book, mentioning how much he learned from you early in your career.

科比在他的曼巴心態書中對拜倫大加讚賞，提到他在職業生涯早期從你身上學到了很多東西。

So, Byron, what was it like for you the first time you faced up against Kobe in practice?

那麼，拜倫，你第一次在訓練中面對科比的時候是什麼感覺？

Because, as Robert said, he came to you.

Uh, Kobe and 17, 18 years old, just wouldn't back down to anybody, you know, He wanted to take that challenge.

呃，科比和17，18歲，只是不會退縮到任何人，你知道，他想接受挑戰。

That's why we got so close is because he wanted to ask all these questions about the MBA, how he could take advantage of his talents.

之所以我們走得這麼近，就是因為他想問這些關於MBA的問題，如何發揮他的才能。

And what were people gonna try to do to take advantage of him?

那人們會怎麼做來利用他呢？

And, you know, as a rookie, you'd always know people will come at you, especially vest.

而且，你知道，作為一個菜鳥，你總是會知道別人會衝著你來，尤其是馬甲。

They're gonna come at you.

他們會來找你的

你得做好準備。

Try to take advantage of you.

But his, you know, his mentality even then was that he was gonna be the best.

But that not only came when he was a young player, it came when you turned around and then coached him at the end of his career.

And he didn't respect you if you didn't go back at him, that's the one thing about did not respect you.
