On why Paul George should heed Kobe Bryant's advice

Following Indiana's down to the wire win over the Los Angeles Lakers, Kobe Bryant had some X's and O's advice for Paul George. Here's what it was.

In August of 2014, an exhibition game took Paul George away from basketball. On Sunday, following a tribute to his self-professed mentor's storied career, another exhibition game showcased his immense talent. But before he was pouring in 41 points and breaking the record for most three-pointers made in an All-Star game, he was fielding questions about his grueling journey back from injury and Kobe Bryant's legacy, which is why Paul George shared a personal exchange between himself and his idol with the assembled media at All-Star weekend in Toronto.
