Kobe Bryant

I don't like helicopters.

After the Kobe Bryant saga, I'm out.

So three people passed away in that crash.

Yeah, the pilot herself died.

There's no way to repeat the success of someone else.

You can study the greatest, you can get inspired, but you're not going to be another Kobe Bryant just because you're going to do exactly what he did.

So it's really about finding your own way while inspiring yourself by the greatest stories of all times and finding your own edge, which you're going to really enjoy.

Because it's not about hustle and hustle culture and doing everything the hard way, but it's really about finding joy in it.

So now Jason, I hear what you're saying.

Um, and you're basically taking the Kobe Bryant, uh, way of looking at it.

Uh, there's not, you got no, you're not happy.

What's to be happy about? Job's not done.

It's incredible, really.

The transition of memorialization, Murdoch contrasts the initial intense emotional outpouring of temporary tributes, such as the murals that emerged worldwide following Kobe Bryant's tragic death, or the original chain link fence aggregated with personal items in Pennsylvania.

how similar, how they compare and contrast with the profound challenge of designing a permanent national memorial, a lasting monument.

must suspend that raw, immediate grief just enough to preserve its historical weight for future generations who didn't experience it firsthand while still embedding emotional resonance into its core.

So this episode is airing the week of 9-11.

And I think it's really interesting because I can't remember a specific time when I had a conversation like this specifically, you know, we talk about architecture and design and how it makes us feel and how it can affect our emotions and how it can affect our lives and how it can better everything that we do.

But The only time I can really think about how, before having a conversation similar to this, was something that really surprised me and that's when Kobe Bryant died.

And all over LA, all over the world, you saw these murals start to pop up and it turned into a way for people to share their feelings, to share their grief, for them to sort of communicate how they were feeling at the time.

Kobe here.

Kobe Bryant is the number one answer on the list.

Numero uno.

Kobe missed more than AI? That's tough.

true let's see

i will give you guys the same five strikes 20 a

game guys with the fewest amount of assists bernard king did not pass no he did not um alex english did not pass since the merger kobe bryant passed i think kobe bryant i think he finished second in assists behind jordan for uh I feel like we're

going to have a well of, like, the big men who just, like, I'm going to think about, like, Amare Stoudemire.

And probably the most important word that I use all the time is obsessive.

And I steal that word from the late Kobe Bryant is we want obsessive people.

Guys are obsessed with the process of development, the process that what it takes.

Everybody wants to lift the trophy.

Maybe you'll just be like Vanessa.

I think it was Kobe Bryant's wife.

Or the mother of that poor girl who was stabbed.

You can come on and be like that.

Yeah.

And then the little kid, Pittman Jr., is wearing a Kobe Bryant jersey.

So if you want to look at this photo, that's the description.

He is absolutely jacked.

So, again, this is what happens when you're in that fringe level.

Now, if you're Kobe Bryant over Brian James, you don't have these problems.

They have different problems.

But this is the type of problems that I want to deal with.
