Los Angeles Lakers superstar Kobe Bryant finally admitted that he shoots too much, but he's quite unapologetic about it.

In fact, Kobe Bryant-who dubbed himself the Black Mamba-said that only artisans, like Mozart perhaps, would understand why he's not shy about throwing the rock even at the expense of his field goal.

The Los Angeles Lakers hall of famer sat down with GQ for an interview where he was asked if he's ever bothered by criticisms that he sometimes shot his team off the game.

"I've shot too much from the time I was eight years old," he said. "But 'too much' is a matter of perspective."

The Black Mamba explained: "Some people thought Mozart had too many notes in his compositions. Let me put it this way: I entertain people who say I shoot too much. I find it very interesting. Going back to Mozart, he responded to critics by saying there were neither too many notes or too few. There were as many as necessary."

Kobe Bryant has a career field goal of 451% and .334% from three, said Basketball Reference.

Coming off devastating injuries to his Achilles and knee, coupled with his advanced age, the Los Angeles Lakers superstar recorded a career-low in field goals this year at 37% as well as 29% from three, which wasn't exactly the lowest in his career (18.8% in 2013-2014 season).

In fact, USA Today revealed a disturbing stat regarding Kobe Bryant before he was shot down for the season for an injured rotator cuff on his shoulder.

The article said that while Kobe Bryant was averaging over 20 points this season, the Los Angeles Lakers guard "has been taking an insane amount of shots to score those points." By the time the stat was collated, only three players attempted more shots than the Black Mamba missed.
