Having missed the playoffs in 2012-13, and all but six games last season, (Kobe) Bryant is using his experience coming back from major injuries to keep (Julius) Randle focused on the fact that he, too, will recover.
Bryant said after he told Randle he could not feel sorry for himself, the rookie responded, “Yeah, I’m not having any pity parties.”
“Get it out your system,” Bryant said he told Randle, “just like I did, with a nice hard cry then it’s time to go from there.”
