Silver compared Kobe and Stern to “giants in this game,” “They have a lot in common. They both have a competitive heart. Sometimes, they may be difficult to get along with. Because in their minds
, Winning always comes first, they don’t have time to pay attention to those little things, because winning is the most important thing.”
