Here’s an interesting quote I got from Dex. It’s about Shaq comparing himself to Kobe when he was nineteen. I don’t know how old this quote is but it’s really telling.

“When I was was nineteen, I was talking to every girl. And when I got my first NBA money, I was buying the freshest Benz. I’m getting the rims, I got the system. I got the windows down, I got the gold chains, I’m back in the ‘hood letting the boys know I made it. … Kobe? Stays in the house and reads.”
