At one point back in 2007 Kobe tried to force his way out of Kobe Bryant legend The Mamba thank you for the memories signature shirt LA because of (3), but now he’s too weak to lead a team to a title. Theoretically, he could still pursue a better team, but when you’ve been a superstar for 5 titles, adding more titles as a role player isn’t going to add much to your legacy. By contrast, being someone who sticks with a single franchise your whole career DOES add to his legacy. He’s going to be able to retire as arguably “Mr. Laker” which will make him an icon in Los Angeles forever complete with statues erected in his honor outside of the Staples Center if he does this.
