Earl Clark: Kobe and Irving love basketball similarly, Kobe is better at speaking

Recently, former NBA player Earl Clark was interviewed by reporter Brandon Robinson and talked about the comparison between Kobe Bryant and Kyrie Irving.

Brandon: You have been teammates with Kobe and Irving. How would you compare the work ethics and leadership styles of the two?

Earl Clark: "I think they're very similar in terms of work ethics and their love for basketball. It means they're not just working out in the gym, they're going home to watch game videos, they're going to do the analysis - I think Kobe is a bit paranoid about winning, like he can't lose too many games, do you understand what I mean?

I'm not saying Irving is a loser or he likes to lose, but I think the paranoid about winning has a greater impact on Kobe, do you understand? I think Kobe is a better voice leader. When I was on the team with Irving, he was still young and was trying to build his position, get a contract, and try to take over the team, and keep growing. So I think that's the difference between the two of them."
