After losing to the fabled "big three" of Miami, Kobe put on some practice gear and went back to work - practicing his jump shots on Miami's homecourt. While the supposedly slumping Heat players celebrated their win against the streaking LA Lakers, Kobe went out of his way to "work". After all, he gets paid to play this game. That's a true professional in any book. Because at the end of the day, you are measured with what you contribute and in the NBA, you know winning that chip fits the bill.
I've always hated the fact that these players earn thousands of dollars a game. This is why I give a lot of respect to players who really practice so that they can develop / learn more skills.
