Ever the sportsman, Kobe Bryant and an intereresting take the other day on pacing himself during the season. He compared the NBA season to another grueling event that, at least in the early going, also seems to have no end in sight.
“I’ve always approached the season like the stages in the Tour de France,” he said, referring to the annual three-week bicycle race. “I’m not going to hit the hill and sprint the hill every time. I’m going to let my teammates help pull me up and then I’m going to wait for a certain part of the race to start to start picking it up. That’s how I approach the season.”
