Beard on Kobe:
“Who’s the most competitive guy ever?” Beard asked. “No debate. A lot of the things we try to do in basketball wherever I’ve coached have been about getting that guy who has the edge and just the work ethic.
Terrible deal (about Kobe’s death), but it just reminds us all how short life is, and me being a dad and having daughters. You can’t imagine, but just from a basketball standpoint; as I’ve reflected the last couple of days, probably nobody that’s had a bigger impact on me just because that was my - it was my generation. I’ve probably watched 80 percent of his games for 20 years.”
