It's a horrible analogy for the reasons the last two posters pointed out.
That's a pretty bad analogy as well. One game vs. Memphis = 3+ months of the year? It'd be more like Kobe deciding to play in the D-League for over a quarter of the season.

He's obviously a very good rider who's had tremendous success in NY, but he has a history of taking the relatively easy career path, and it hurts his reputation. And until he rides against top riders all 12 months, that perception will still persist among some.
