Who watched this before Kobe passed but came back anyway to hear his voice... RIP Kobe
Noah Garner 💯💯
Exactly why I came back 💯🙏🏾
Me
Doing that exact thing now I WANTED to hear HisDrive And Focus
7 minutes left I'm here
Crazy, people gonna be coming to this video for decades to come.
yes
Yes
Props to ATS for having one of the most recent interviews before his death showing Kobe's personality and maturity
MrBartman002 fax this was perfect timing
Man
The fact that Kobe told Michael Jordan “remember who you’re talking to” And Michael saying “I’m just messing with you” Is classic, literally nobody else can say that
word. Mad respect between them. Bron be like: Mike can I join👏
That’s Golden
Larry Bird can also say this , he never loss to Michael Jordan in his life
@allannirvana 1 on 1 Kobe beats mike.
@@scottdavidson9963 no way
Too think Kobe had less than one month on this planet left at the time of this interview.. He seemed completely normal which reminds you how short life really is… DEEP.. Long live the Great Kobe Bryant
Word 💯
Didn’t see it coming 😢
damn that just hurt bad I didnt realize that but your right holy shit.
This was some time in November they just hired it in January
facts.
This dude Matt Barnes is so good at what he does, let the guest talk,asks question that fans want n overall is super professional.
Watching his career I would've never thought he would do this good at interviewing ppl
I said that on "Speak for yourself" hes a 🤬 natural...so once again! "Will Matt Barnes be the smoothest NBA analyst of all time??!!” Find out next time.....
@@miyagifatghost2684 I hope he doesn't man....he can't fumble this bag at all. Shidd I wouldnt if I was him 😂
He’s very intellectual, dude went to UCLA
ScantsRants It’s like this with Matt. When he played for Orlando years ago, I noticed he was fiery as a player on the court. His behavioral stances wasn’t as live in Orlando at the time was it was when he became a full blown journeyman the rest of the way. When he played for the Grizzlies, that’s when I really pick up on his behavioral tendencies. Yes he had that fiery temper, but the guy is one of those no non sense guys who will put you on blast. When he did his first interview as a Grizzly, that’s when I noticed this bruh talks with some solid intel. I was astounded because at the time with Matt’s rep, lockdown defense, get in your grill, willing to fight, etc. When you get to see another side of a player, it’s cool to get to see that because it’s like a rare moment you get to see from players.
This interview will become iconic. Last interview of Kobe Bryant. I still can't believe it. RIP Black Mamba.
Pablo López LA LEGEND
Cody Foster , what’s the last one he did smart guy ??
@@Xocticz La Legend fo sho. I'm from NZ and he's death made breaking news. Hes a Icon all over the world. The G.O.A.T of my Generation
@Cody Foster who cares? It's one of the last. And easily the best. It should be iconic. RIP
@@rice909 I think he did one about LeBron passing him in points
Coming back here on the 2nd anniversary of his passing and it still hits home. RIP to an absolute LEGEND. We miss you Kobe 🐍 ♾ 💜💛
Amen 🙏 🙏
Thando and it is a great day that you and me recognize the brother, who gave us peace and entertained all of us , I'm an African, and I believe guys when you mention that man name, remember his daughter GIGI,RIP, the Brother and his daughter GIGI are in Heaven, father God bless his wife and his other kids who are alive
❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
almost 3 years now
Back again today for the 3rd…still not coming to terms with it.
2 years later still enjoyed rewatching this. RIP Kobe
Man, sometimes you gotta remind yourself...legends never die. Their actions and words are alive when we keep them alive.
RIP Kobe and Gigi. Her love for basketball was the same as her father.
@@kingballerofficialyou have Giannis as your pfp …that says a lot about you
Kobe is so much cooler in person. The media really did make him seem like a bad person when he played.
Nobody likes the Lakers but then you end up being the greatest basketball player playing for the Lakers... The hate is going to be real
I mean he was a killer on the court.. Certified... The media had no other choice but make him a villian.
Little kids hate Kobe because they know he is better than me.
@@LeBronJames-StatPadderMan troll better
You can be chill off the court but be an asshole during game time, the 2 aren't mutually exclusive. It's like how CP3 is a prick during games but all you ever hear is him being loved by other players.
Kobe's death feels to me like someone just burned a whole library down. So many dope stories and knowledge have not been told by Kobe, damn
And didn’t age well, really forced to share for comfort 😓
Excellent metaphor!
Foreal 😭
So true,unfortunately!!!💔
Junhe Su Kind of like how the Roman’s burned those ancient Egyptian sacred texts or how the Romans destroyed the beautiful capital city of Carthage by killing its vegetation with salt, supposedly. Heck, according to the scriptures, the Romans killed Jesus. The Romans were plain evil. REST IN ETERNAL PARADISE KOBE BRYANT AKA BLACK MAMBA💜💛⚫️🐍🏀Legends NEVER die!!!!
I respect the fact that Stephen Jackson always gave Kobe love when Kobe was still alive. Most people only do that when someone has passed and only do so out of hindsight. As Stephen once said back in 2018, "I would never let anybody disrespect Kobe in my presence"
I watch this interview every few months. I miss Kobe so much, the only player/star/celebrity who’s death that made me cry. What a man he was
Here again as well. Legends never die.
Same here...
Same here! Had me crying like a baby for hours. Once they confirmed it, it just hit me
This was his one of his last official interviews
I still cry watching his games and interviews. I can’t believe he had such a huge impact in my life and I don’t even know Kobe. Rest in peace Kobe & Gigi 🙏🙏🙏
My man stack said it don't matter if we had to drive backwards, we getting to Kobe house lol 💯 bro 🤝 he always gave Kobe his roses while he was alive.
Always
@@Kickzsince86 💯
He stood up for Kobe in a Big 3 interview too. Consistency is key.
@@tysong1318 fax
💯💯🖤
The love they're showing at the beginning was as if he was already gone That's the most genuine Incredible
Waiting for you to drop video about Kobe. How about Who the next kobe?
hellaclownin no one
hellaclownin zion the next kobe

@@adxn1k327 James Harden
All Kobe’s interviews will be treasure for everyone who love Kobe
100%
Kobe was such an iconic individual. You’ll notice their level of maturity. Based on how they talk, laugh, their gestures.
Yes
Imagine them on the night out 😂
I wish it was a DeLorean 😢 we could go back in time and warn him to not get on that helicopter
This will go down as probably the most legendary Kobe Interview.
Every Kobe interview is legendary
At the perfect time but I don’t want to talk to much about or I’ll tear up 😢😢
easy
Based on what? Emotions? I miss him too, but that made little sense. No offense.
this is good, but look up patrick bet david interview
“I would never let someone disrespect Kobe Bryant, not in my presence” -Stephen Jackson
Mamba4L💜💛
He mean that shit too 💯 PA TRILL
MAMBA FA LIFE😭🙄👿😢
Steve Jack been a real one since day 1 way b4 his twin George Floyd
He's not playing either, Stephen really be in the trenches with the goons, no cap
Kobe saying I thought you did win the MVP to Stephan instantly became the highlight of his playing career that's how highly regarded Kobe was by his peers RIP Mamba!!
As a lifelong Spurs and NBA fan, two takeaways. 1) I could listen to Kobe talk all day long about his personal interactions with MJ. Their connection, similarities, and differences are just so interesting and fun. And 2) to hear Kobe speak about San Antonio with so much reverence just means so much as a Spurs fan watching that rivalry for all those years. He contributed to so many amazing memories for each of those respective team’s franchises. They dominated the NBA for nearly 20 years. Kobe will truly be missed! #RIP
Real shit im from Detroit but a Spurs fan too
I always give the Spurs the props they deserve. Those series were really the NBA Finals
Kobe so competitive he got himself a bigger chair Edit: Just wanted to come back and say thanks for the likes and RIP to the GOAT and Gigi 🐍🐍🐍
😂😭😭
Omg I’m dying
SJ23 The master chair? The alpha-chair? Hmmm....maybe not that deep...but again Kobe Bryant is an sociopath lol 😅
Buddy Guyerson 🤣
SJ23 Just be glad that isn’t snakeskin leather...
“You can’t win 5 rings being selfish” RIP Kobe Bryant! I grew up watching him like everyone else. I still remember game 7 from 2010 like was yesterday :(
Facts 💯
ill take those 5 rings!!
Eso es lo sierto IN SPANISH
kobe tried to tell harden his style of play won't win rings.
Gregory Hayes it wont, dribble dribble dribble three dribble dribble free throw isnt it. Kobe was two dribbles get to his spot and score. Harden completely slows down any offense.
It’s such a shame he doesn’t walk this earth anymore. He was so much more then basketball and I believe he was just hitting his stride as far as the mark he would have left on this world.
Bigger shame is the fact that those young girls never got the chance to find their true selves yet.. 13 is insanely young to pass🤦🏽♂️ I’m only 16, but i’m almost a completely different person than to when i was 13.. and i still don’t know my total true self yet
I'm watching this for the first time in 2023. And it still fascinates me how much I can learn from Kobe. This podcast is forever❤
Same broo!!! Same!!!
Kobe sounds like he was mastering parenthood. Im listening to all his advice.
He already did master parent hood
Just take care of your kids genius.
Justin's World Yea no shit. Thats the easy part
Kobe is a special dude, rest in peace mamba
The handshakes, the interview, Kobe alive....so much has happened since this video it almost seems prehistoric
Update...this video is still very hard to watch
Indeed, What a horrible year it has been. God bless everyone. Here’s to better days ahead.
So true
Jesus now with the fires it just keeps getting worse
So true
I can’t say how much it hurts not to have Kobe present with us. He had so much more to teach. I miss the homie RIP Kobe and the families that were with him
It’s incredible what he did with his life in such a short amount of time. He passed way too soon, but did more with his short time than most of us could do with 1000 years.
❗️❗️❗️
Kobe was a modern age true Sage. So sad to have a cry babie thinking that he's the GOAT and he doesn't hold a candle to Kobe. We need more mamba mentality. R. I. P. KOBE
Nobody will read this I’m sure, but I remember watching this after it came out, and then a few weeks later going on a work trip. My flight landed in Chicago 2 hours after the incident, so I remember walking off the airplane into the hotel lobby and seeing grieving and I didn’t know why. Until I saw a TV, which was showing the news. As a lifelong basketball fan (but not even necessarily a Kobe-particular fan compared to others beforehand) beginning to cry in the airport, because regardless of my prior fandom of the athlete (he was always beating my team, so that’s why I didn’t pull for him, because of how good he truly was), I was a big fan of the man, Kobe Bryant. This was a tough one. There will never be another like him.
RIP Kobe Bryant we love u while you was here with us. Damn we lost a Legend.
Stop lying
Black Boy Abroad it not a joke ........
Black Boy Abroad not jokes it’s confirmed
@@BlackBoyAbroad Just got confirmed by the Washington Post. It's true. It's horrible.
This ain’t how you’re supposed to wake up from a nap
I just watched this when it premiered Smh didn’t know it would be one of his last interviews. Forever the goat
Me too fam smh
I'm glad Matt and Jack got to do it. Gangsta
Iconic
Exactly i was so hyped to watch this
watched the whole thing over, sucks man Rip the mamba.
Hearing him speak at length about GG's growth is still heartbreaking.
Never not tearing up while watching this over and over again. We miss you everyday, Kob. ❤️
Kobe was getting better in retirement. He was so likable. Makes no sense. RIP Mamba
BerkleyCalifornia - I agree ! He got more likable after retirement unlike Jordan.
He was getting out of jordans shadow, its sad.
ddhaye well they are 2 different people. Why Jordan is brought up is kinda strange.
Eric Tolbert id say he got out of Shaq’s shadow.
ddhaye Jordan is a corporate man behind his goat sneaker chain
Kobe thinking you should have won the MVP is more prestige than actually winning the MVP award
Progressive Viewer Yea.. Stephen was like "that's all I needed to hear"...
Rite!
🐐
I’m back two years later and I still smile seeing Kobe light up talking about Jordan.
Man RIP Kobe. He made work and determination cooler than anybody else! Nice to listen to this again!
I'm glad all the smoke,interviewed Kobe before he passed.shout out Matt and jak.yall r the realest out here.
The Realest 💯💯
I see Kobe I click, nothing more, nothing less. Lol
Andre 🐐
Big facts!!
This is the way.
Instant click
Facts
You guys did a lot more with this episode than ESPN can do with all of Hollywood's best directors and presenters doing it. Respect.
I can't watch this video without tears in my eyes. He never talks smack. He never does anything but be respectful. What a player and human. You'll be missed by so many people. Including me.
Can’t believe this is ONLY 39 minutes long man 😭 EDIT: damn man. Rest easy King...
Javian Johnson ikr.
I was PISSED
Ik I didn't want it to end
Not as good and juicy as it coulda been like real good questions..
I know.....I was like y'all only gave Black Mamba 39 minutes 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
I’ve watched countless Kobe interviews but this was so much more organic. I would’ve watched for 4 hours. We need a part 2, 3, 4.......
Yea there’s a lot to talk about , especially the GOAT talk and how Kobe’s name is always left out in those conversations.
David Estilo right. And it’s never made sense to me why that is. He’s put in the work to prove it and earned all of it the hard way.
Y’all must didn’t see the knucklehead pod
@@Izm_Skizm asuch as I love Kobe he was the best Jordan impersonator. For everything Kobe did MJ did it better which is why he gets left out. That's also why LeBron will ultimately be left out. When you look at LeBron as an individual he's higher than Kobe but Kobe was a winner.
@@KidBowsur I'm overrated tbh. MJ is better but Kobe was a better 3PT shooter. Gap between MJ and Kobe isn't that far. That is why Jordan himself said Kobe is the only guy worth comparing himself to.
I could listen to Kobe talk for hours. Just his knowledge of the game and how he tells his story is incredible. His last interview before passing and I’m grateful for it. 🙏🏾
Bruhh!! Kobe was DEFINITELY super comfortable here in this interview. You got to see a much more relaxed, laid back, & more genuine Kobe right here.
The beginning is basically giving Kobe his flowers while he can still smell them and not when he passed they truly loved this man! Give people their flowers while they still standing in two feet y’all we gotta do better!
Before after at least they gave him his props people b so stuck on wat people did after his death it’s still love regardless
That's a fact.
Jordan Canida YESSIR YESSIR
Them boys put on army clothing for this interview, they ready for war with Kobe 🤣
Mr. Kontrarian I was hoping I wasn’t the only one who noticed that lol
Mr. Kontrarian LMAO!!!
Mr. Kontrarian 🤣🤣
Haha
More like go to war for Kobe which they both always do in interviews
Kobe was really a different human being. Love this guy. I cried real tears when it happened. He felt like a family member and I never even met the guy before. Mannn😤
I can barely cry but when Kobe gone, I couldn’t control myself. My kids had to console me. Love you Kobe!
Bruh- my sister messaged me, “are you good?” I was like, huh! Then she sent me the live feed! I was done for a good minute!And I’ve been a Lakers fan since ‘86!
I love that Kobe didn’t do typical media stuff for Retired players when he stopped playing basketball (podcast on the game, sitting on a panel breaking down every game with current players, etc.). He was Kobe.. he had to navigate a new course and set a new path. Writing books for kids Won an Oscar Coaching kids And so many more projects he was probably planning that we’ll probably never know about. Paulo Coelho had come out and said he was deleting how far they had gotten in a joint venture of a new book because it was senseless without him now (the day of his death). I wonder how much more we would have seen from him. RIP Kobe ❤
They took the bean too soon bruh, everyday I miss him knowing he could’ve been so great outside of his basketball career. 💜💛😂
I would never let anybody disrespect Kobe in my presence, ever” bought me here
Is that a video?
UNDERSTAND
Grave Dilla search “big 3 Stephen Kobe” on youtube
Kobe is just another person.
Shaya Panda you just another person. I’m just another person. In all due respects Matt Barnes and Stephan Jackson are just “another person” obvi ex nba stars, but compared to Kobe, most of the world are just other people. Kobe was special.
RIP to Kobe Bryant and his beautiful daughter. I can say that I was literally in tears. Tragic, unbelieveable and heartbreaking. Kobe was my age, 41. Graduated the same year as I as well. And of course followed him through his whole career. So I felt like I knew him, as funny as that might sound. So I feel like I lost a close friend. Prayers for him and family.
Yeah I'm from l.a. I thought he'd outlive me because he's so healthy
same here.. I've been a rockets fan my whole life but Kobe was by far my favorite none rocket player. RIP Kobe
Yeah me too!!!
You did know him brother. Spiritually we feel each other. God bless you
Im the same age and I graduated from high school the same year as well. Rooting for him made me feel like I was cheering for one of my classmates.
Man Kobe is so articulate and knowledgeable. I could listen to this guy and MJ talk about basketball whole day
Hearing him talk about his daughter is sooooo.....🥺🥺🥺🥺
“I can’t believe you two guys are doing media and doing it great” -Kobe 😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂he knows what's up
Kobe best in so many move
@ 38:21
Anybody ever come back once in a while to hear his voice?
Just did .. Missed truly.
Doing it now! RIP
Yessss
Yea smh
Yeah
this was definitely the best Kobe interview I've seen, so candid, you can tell he was close with these guys. took me a while to watch cuz the subject of the Mamba cuts me very deeply. Rip Mamba RIP Gigi 🙏 🕊
Rip🙏🙏
Such an awesome interview by Kobe. That dude was special, world is worst off without him… my mom passed a couple months before. This was the first big death I heard about after losing my mom and this shit affected me like no other. And I was barely a basketball fan then. Kobe is an amazing individual with a unique story that everyone should know and try to learn from.
My Sincere Condolences 🙏🏿
@@gabrielalele8603 Thank you, I really appreciate that! :)
"I went into the room, burned one real quick" lmaoo love this dude man
Ant 1 I was looking for this comment
Lmao pregame you already kno how it go famo🤣🤣💯
The way he talks, the tone of his voice, his self-confidence, intelligence... My man was different. One hell of a person. I love you Kob and I miss you a lot. Thanks god that he granted me those 20 years to watch you from the beginning till the end. May your soul rest in peace brother. 🙏
I love the fact that Kobe wasn't dismissive of San Antonio. Really, he's right. Those Spurs teams with Manu, Tony, and Duncan as their core, were amazing.
You can really see that Jackson admires Kobe an his greatness. The respect is real.
yeah.. I felt it broh.. Stack really admire and respect Kobe.. look at his movement or action.. it so refined..
1 John 5:19 2 Peter 3:9💕
"I'm trying to build something for the next 20 years."
Legacy
Man
burnsloads SOLID 👊🏿
he did. im sure he wanted to top his ball playing career, and look like he was going to, but regardless, it was enough to solidify himself into the consciousness of America.
@@leosyyris1359 well said 🔥🔥🔥
I still cannot wrap my mind around the fact that he not with us. Rip Kobe man💛
Bro this is crazy the 40 min went by so fast watching Kobe talk
Sadly the interview was only like 33 mins. Still dope af
They should do a part 2
Kevin Brown bruuh I know 😅😅
Kevin Brown quality work here. You’ll never get this from ESPN or Fox.
Kevin Brown felt the same way. didnt evem realize it was that long til i read this comment and checked the time. Hoping for a part 2 haha
Kobe talking about gigi at the end really hurts....
I know right. Talking about getting back into basketball because of Gigi and being a father. Gigi had her whole life ahead of her. :(
Yeah, tough to watch. She seemed really intuitive with basketball the way Kobe talked about her, I feel like she woulda been a great player in her own right. #RIP
As a father, that just hurts so bad. All you want is for your kids to be safe and achieve their goals. Hearing him talk about her like that now that they’re gone, man it’s sad 😔
This has been a fucked up year Rip Kobe
Shit Sad Asf
I can watch this all day with a smile. Miss Kobe a lot 🥲
Man... i miss my boy.
This is the first time I’ve seen this and I wanted it to never end. A truly great interview from the beginning to the end. It literally brought tears to my eyes hearing Kobe Bryant talk, especially about his coaching the team and the interaction with his daughter Gigi.
Matt Barnes doing a extremely good job with the show respect ✊🏿💯
Why they didn't ask Kobe about the 04' Pistons tho👀???😂😂😂
Lamo that’s when him and Shaq big beef started so I believe Kobe threw that series
@The R.So did Ben and RH
@The R. Mr arms yea
lol he threw in a few lies too, lmao
The ending segment talking about their daughters. It really is an unbelievable tragedy. No words.
Real talk💯 #RIP KOBE & GIGI (and all the other ppl who lost their lives)
Ya it sucked when Stephen Jackson mentioned the first date 😢 Vanessa brought that up in her speech. Sad 😞
kobe talking abt gigi and how serious she was starting to think about basketball is absolutely heartwrenching heartbreak dawg. rest in peace to a legend and someone who woulda definitely made her own name known from her work
I live in Asia, it was night time then when Kobe, Gigi and all those with them passed away. I remember lying in bed, and I was struggling to sleep, turning right and left. Then I decided to turn on my phone, and when I read the news, my heart stopped. I never really cared when celebrities died, except for maybe a few, like Robin Williams for example. His death hit me so hard, I just never realised how connected I was (I love basketball) to this man who I never met and will ever be able to meet.
This episode will be forever immortalized.
Al Le My tribute to Kobe - kzhead.info/sun/pLmTqJetmoSQqH0/bejne.html
It doesn't even seem real ... He was one of those rare athletes that you could listen to talk about things other than sports. I feel privileged to have watched him play in his prime. Watching him play on TV doesn't even convey his intensity. Yet off the court, a warm greeting individual... he will be sorely missed ... Mamba Forever
Me too bro
Well said
I love how while Kobe played he didn’t give media to much to talk about besides his game. Post retirement I love how he finally opened up, wish we got more years to pick his brain not just with basketball but life in general bc mamba mentality translates well off court, what a human being. Long Live Bean !
Rest In Paradise Kobe & GiGi and all the others who lost their lives in that tragedy … Matt B & Stephen Jack have one of the dopest podcast.. I’ve been rocking with these two as players as well for years ..
Matt Barnes, one of the most well-spoken athletes and interviewers, period.
He did attend UCLA.
Matt Barnes and Kobe have swwweeettt history in nba hahahaha
That’s when I heard Kobe say at the end “I’m surprised you two are in media” I laughed too. Love that big media companies are realizing theres a huge market for uncensored and authentic content. This is true ‘Reality TV’
bosh also very articulate
Saying some is “well spoken” especially in terms of athletes, is a backhanded compliment. Honestly it’s a micro aggression, but I digress.
Bro all the smoke needs to get more love. Its one of the hidden gems in all of sports shows. Keep. Up the great work guys! ✊🏽🏀
Umm it gets like over 200k views usually
Yawnnnz Ingg and only 11 episodes in, this show is growing at a very fast rate
Nope keep it in the pocket for the real ones only but it's gone blow
Better than area 21
Its so good damn near better than knuckleheads. But knuckleheads has had alot of great players on that but all the smoke is newer but so far has been great and very organic. Its like the homies just kicking it and talking about shit lool its dope.
You can tell they filmed the interview at Kobe's house, not just because the style... the Awards. Oscar, Emmy, and ______ Good work from Matt and Capt Jack. r. i. p. Kobe & Gianna Bryant
Just found their show and came across this episode. Man I miss this dude. Also just watched the redeem team and he is so motivating. Not just in basketball but he makes you want to be better, focused, and no bs’ing
Yes as a human being he just always pushed the envelope in life..
I hit like before the interview even started 😆 R.I.P. Kobe & GiGi
Me too
Yup
Yep
Fax bro!
Amen 😂
Kobe really gifted him the pack straight out his crib 🔥🥵 👟
they at his office lol
They’re having such a great time with him, you can tell the man has charisma
Miss Kobe… God gave us 41 years of him, which seems not enough, but he served his purpose and went somewhere better than this world. Rest Easy, Legend.
Salute you two for giving him his flowers while he was living!!! That shows authenticity HUGE SALUTE.... Freaking GREAT SHOW as well !!
Unconquerable Detroit without a doubt!!! This is such a priceless jewel...and will be for years to come
Sad to see Kobe talk about the future when his was only days and weeks from ending. Tomorrow isn’t promised for real. Wow.
@North Philly 215 Wym?
@North Philly 215 C’mon bro.. that’s not how it works.
@North Philly 215 dumbest thing I ever heard
@North Philly 215 no disrespect but do you think your life controls how the world goes 😂.
@North Philly 215 do you take your crystal ball everywhere bro ?
I come back to this interview all the time. Such high praise that Matt and Stak are genuine fans of Kobe. His last interview is one of my favorites. RIP Kobe
This is clearly worthy of an Emmy.. The questions and the responses are soo naturally presented. I really feel like I’m in the room with you guys watching with a permanent smile!
Timing is just so crazy who knew when this dropped it would be 1 of his last sit downs. This will be a legendary interview that will live on forever.
Totally agree going down in history
It’s sad day man. I’m rewatching this after the reports of his pass. FUCKKKKKK. RIP LEGEND.
Sports Fan me too man, i came back after the news, i had a new found respect for Kobe after this interview i thought he was the biggest ball-hog asshole ever but not any longer after this or at least he has charisma
kdrobins7 - K-Rob I don’t even know what to feel bro. I’m so shook I don’t want to believe this is real.
This shit giving me anxiety
Same here fellas this one shook me to the core I just watched this video like 3 days ago
I’m with you guys!! This interview gave me a whole new perspective and presented a dichotomy of Kobe the athlete and Kobe the man (teammate, husband, father). RIP KB
Dam, Mamba…you are missed. Thank you for setting a path for all athletes and just everyday regular people. You def took advantage of your time on earth and made every second count , I am forever grateful.
Rest in peace hero, finding you're KZhead highlights in 2015 introduced me to basketball and taught me about confidence. Words dont describe the level of depression you saved me from. Thank you Kobe.
Jack was smiling from the beginning to the end, thats how u know he had luv for KOBE RIP...
I love your comment we as a culture have to protect these two dudes
Absolutely. 100% and respect.
facts! Him and Kobe been cool since high school especially when they played in the McDonald's game together.
RIP kobe
Shit ain't still real mahn
I finally got the chance to watch this today.... 15 minutes later, I learned Kobe Bryant passed away. I couldn’t believe it and I’m still in shock. Sad day. RIP Kobe B. Bryant.
Same here man
Cry me a river lol
@@victorjimenez3902 What's your problem? Pathetic human being
Still here in 2024. RIP Mamba!!🙏🏾🙏🏾
The way Matt Barnes and Stephen Jackson where talking about Kobe is like, they knew that would be his last interview he would ever do it was a great interview and, I never get tired of watching it. 💯
This needed to be at LEAST an hour 30 mins
superkriIIin Kobe too busy for that
Kobe was special man. Transcended beyond basketball. Articulate, intelligent , and cultured.
I miss homie
Yessssssssss!!!!!!!!!!!
The world has not been the same since we lost Kobe 😔
Kobe was just different, man. Beyond impressive
U dont have to say beyond. Transcending is already "going beyond"
Watching this again in 23…😢😢
the fact that they literally just saw him and had this convo right before he passed is crazy
Kobe stays flexing, I see that Emmy and Oscar in the back 😂🐐
Aram Meraz Shaw was a lazy fuck he wanted to live life being an nba player not dedicated look what Kobe doing after smh
Any idea what that spiral like trophy is?
Ron artest and Matt Barnes used to be huge rivals of Kobe. Then they play for lakers and they became one of the best friends. That tells you something
@Mamba out Kobe was the one that Requested they go out and trade for them two!! They gave him hell everytime they played him!!!
The Jones Family I guess you know rob pelinka and Mitch kupchak personally good for you
@Mamba out wth are you talking about?? Dude, it’s Well Documented that Kobe Helped RECRUIT RON and MATT!! Stop trying to be funny with your DRY as a Bone Ass Humor, Playa!!!
This quote from another player makes me think of Kobe. "Don't judge me until you know me. Don't underestimate me until you challenge me. And don't talk about me until you've talked to me."
The Jones Family I found that Kobe recruited Barnes, not artest. Well, it does not matter and I don’t give two shits. The whole point is they transited from hating Kobe to respecting his game due to his undeniable work ethics.
