Kobe Bryant will lead the league in scoring
Kobe is right now second in the NBA is scoring (26.5 points per game). While it’s all good and fun, don’t expect that number to stay that high much longer. As much as I want to see Kobe Bryant succeed, I’m also not going to act like Kobe is going to play at a high level forever — he’s not.
As the season unwinds — and as his 36-year-old body begins to absorb the grind of the NBA’s 82-game schedule — Kobe’s productivity will decline as well.
In the NBA, father time is undefeated. And its coming for Kobe soon.
