Kobe doesn't miss the game 'even a little bit'
There will be no ill-fated return to the court for the newly retired Kobe Bryant.
Having said goodbye after two decades in the NBA, Bryant has kept himself fairly busy in retirement and doesn't feel any draw towards the game of basketball that served as his muse for the majority of his life.
"Not even a little bit," Bryant said at his shoe launch Tuesday, according to ESPN's Ramona Shelburne.
"It's strange to think a couple years ago, to be in this emotional space would be unfathomable. But I mean not even a smidge, which I'm very thankful for, because it's made my transition seamless and I can really just watch, and just enjoy the games."
Bryant scored 60 points in his final game to cap off a surefire Hall of Fame career. After that he made his peace: Bryant was done for good and he hasn't looked back.
