Old footage reveals Michael Jordan calling Kobe Bryant a 'little Laker boy' in their first NBA All-Star game together "Championship-wise, it's Kobe Bryant," Jordan said. "He wants it so bad and he's willing to go to the extreme. Guarding a point guard at the age of 34, playing 38 minutes, 40 minutes, that's ludicrous.""He's cursed as much as I am," said Jordan, referring to Bryant.
