LOS ANGELES -- Kobe Bryant admitted to watching a few games during the first week of the NBA season. But playing again? Not a chance. He doesnt miss it.Not even a little bit, Bryant said Tuesday morning at the launch of his latest signature Nike shoe, the Kobe A.D.Its strange to think a couple years ago, to be in this emotional space would be unfathomable. But I mean not even a smidge, which Im very thankful for, because its made my transition seamless and I can really just watch and just enjoy the games.Bryant said he has thrown himself into his new business ventures during the first six months of his retirement from the NBA, while at the same time embracing the reality of his death as a basketball player. He decided to launch this latest shoe on Dia de los Muertos, Day of the Dead, in recognition of the transition stage he finds himself in, at age 38.What it means to me is the balance of both things, Bryant said of the Mexican holiday, which is also celebrated in Los Angeles. You gotta be able to have the balance between the light and the dark. Youve got to be able to have death in order to have life. Its finding the balance of both things and finding the beauty in both of those things.Asked how closely he has followed the NBA -- in particular the incredible individual performances by Anthony Davis, Russell Westbrook and Kawhi Leonard -- in the first week of the new season, Bryant said, Ive been following it. I wouldnt say closely, but if Im home and I have a chance to put the game on, and Im home, Ill put the game on. I kind of know generally who is winning and who is losing.Players have been playing phenomenally well, which is rare. Normally at the start of the season you kind of have to work yourself into a rhythm. This year they just came out of the gates smoking. Thats rare.He also has followed the efforts by NBA players like Carmelo Anthony, LeBron James, Dwyane Wade and Chris Paul, to use their platform to promote social justice.I think its great. What Ive tried to do on the back end of that is help the youth understand what those issues are, Bryant said. What is the system that can help you understand what those issues are? Its one thing to say we need change, but what does that actually look like? What are the issues that we need to vote on and understand?When pressed on whether he would endorse a presidential candidate in the upcoming election, Bryant said, I think we dont all have to randomly guess the side of the fence that Im on. For those that support the opposite of what you believe my point of view should be -- and if youve known me for many years, I think you know which candidate Im supporting -- then God bless you man. Thats your point of view. John Atkins Jersey . In the lead up - which seemed to begin the moment Mike Geiger blew the whistle in Houston last Thursday night - the Impact rumour mill went into overdrive. The speculation went into meltdown mode, of the golden nugget variety. Romeo Okwara Jersey . The Clippers were angry about blowing a big lead; the Kings didnt like being in that kind of hole and nearly digging themselves out only to lose. http://www.wholesalelionsjerseys.com/?tag=youth-tommylee-lewis-jersey . Anthony Davis had 31 points and 17 rebounds in his seventh straight game with more than 20 points, but that was only enough to keep the Pelicans competitive into the final minutes. Andrew Bogut had 10 points and 15 rebounds for Golden State, which rebounded from a loss a night earlier in Oklahoma City and snapped a two-game skid. Sam Martin Jersey . The formidable trio of Canadian receivers -- individually known as Chris Getzlaf, Rob Bagg and Andy Fantuz -- will share the field at Mosaic Stadium one more time on Sunday. Micah St. Andrew Jersey .
