from Byron Scott's Fast Break Hosted by Change The Game

Gary Vitti returns to break down the most jaw-dropping Kobe Bryant stories ever — from Navy SEAL waterboarding to his Saw obsession — plus why Vitti walked off Winning Time and how 32 years with the Lakers shaped his view of greatness. In this episode, Lakers icon Gary Vitti opens up about the intensity, intelligence, and relentless drive that defined Kobe Bryant. He details Kobe’s mental training with Navy SEALs, his belief he could escape a Saw trap, and why Vitti left HBO’s Winning Time. He also reflects on decades of behind-the-scenes moments from Showtime through the Kobe/Shaq era, and what he learned about toughness, preparation, and competing at all costs.
