Michael Jordan vs. Kobe Bryant 1-one-1: Student vs. Teacher

Nice video collection of epic 1-on-1 battles between Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan. MJ schools Kobe like a schoolboy in most scenes. teaching him some rare cross-overs, his famous fadeaway jumper and numerous fakes. However, Kobe got better over time. The epic 1998 NBA All Star Game was one of the highlights of their battle and it's also featured in this great collection of Kobe vs. Jordan matches.

Classic.

Michael Jordan quote on success

"I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game-winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed."
