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.
