Kobe Bryant has had a number of feuds and rivalries throughout his 20 years in the NBA, but now Kobe is finding himself to be his harshest critic.
The Lakers have fallen to 0-3 and it's very much the fault of the future hall of fame shooting guard. Bryant is shooting just 31 percent from the field and a paltry 20 percent from the three-point line. It also doesn't help that he has already taken 51 shots in just three games, despite still not having a feel for the ball.

"I'm the 200th-best player in the league right now," Bryant said according to ESPN. "I freaking suck. I just cant make a shot."
It's easy to understand why Bryant is struggling a bit early on however. He miss much of last season with a rotator cuff injury and played in just six games the season before that. The 37-years-old Bryant has missed a ton of time in recent years, and the combination of rust and age are starting to show.

"At some point you've just got to say to hell with all of that and just figure out how to put the ball in the hole," Bryant said.
This is Kobe Bryant we're taking about. He has a killer instinct that has won his team five NBA Titles. Bryant will do what he has always done; He'll shoot the ball. He'll shoot the ball a whole a lot.
