I grew up hating Kobe. Like really, REALLY hating his guts. Over the second half of his career, hate quickly turned to respect... Then admiration... And now, I think about him every day. The epitome of work ethic. A true inspiration. RIP Bean.
Wow I’ve said this to a tee. Hated he bit Jordan, wasn’t authentic Now, the work ethic and mamba mentality transcended sports in general. Wild that his contributions to the game sports and anything is far greater than any other competitor.
How do you HATE someone you don’t even know??? This was sports, guy, not your life. Grow up!
Yea him holding jerseys then crying when he got fouled he was good I thought he was selfish but yea later in his career his work ethic and understanding the reason y he was like that much respect he is top 3 all time
@@kuroneko7022 you were raised by a single mom, huh?
Literally the same !
Never cried when someone famous passed. Felt sad for them but no tears. But Kobe…. Man, still heart breaking. Hard for me to look at clips of him. And honestly I think it’s hard in general in the sports world. I noticed on radio and tv, It’s like people cant talk about him too. Too painful. Like it’s too hard to talk about him without becoming emotional. Favorite player of all time.
Oh, I couldn't agree more. The Mamba was phenomenal. I don't even have the word for what Kobe was... 8✌🏽Mamba out!✌🏽24
I was just talking about this with somebody, Kobe was the first celebrity that died and I actually felt something. When Kobe died that hurt me
@@the4thtribe709 Same i didnt even watch basketball at the time but when he died i was so sad i watched all his old highlights. Been watching basketball ever since
Ima 97 LA baby so I was in tears cuddy, Kobe was part of my childhood to adulthood, i never thought legends like him would pass young 🤧
00
I'll never forget watching Kobe's last game. It was like a fairytale end to a movie playing out in real life. Still gets me emotional to think that he's no longer with us. RIP.
RIP Kobe Bryant one of the greatest ever to play in the NBA
@Black Mamba 4 Life Thank you 👍

His moves identically a mirror to Micheal Jordan. Incredible. What a basketball player, rip black mamba.
@@PIP...33 didn’t understand a word you said my man. Come again explaining what that you just said. Not mean to bash on you or anything. usually I can put together what people are trying to say, and I just don’t know what you’re trying to say.

I think Kobe would have been a really good coach or mentor he wouldn’t put up with being soft and that’s kinda what people need sometimes is disciplined.
@@PIP...33 please shut up
@@PIP...33 first off, get back into school kid and learn some simple grammar, you can communicate worth a damn. Second off, they the best to ever do it. Period.
Forget coaching. Kobe would have been a good team owner.
I mean, he was a coach already for Gigi’s team so
@@soulofamerica You crazy
Kobe Bryant was an All-World Defender. The team needed a scorer he excelled at creating opportunities on the court. Hate to see how he got talked down on for it, while his assists and defensive went under appreciated.
Ironically he has the 2nd most assist by a shooting guard, 3 behind Clyde the glide . Yet kobe never passed the ball
His defense was not under appreciated it’s the opposite. He has 12 all defense selections which ranks number 2 all time behind Timmy and tied with KG.
In Kobe's early NBA career, I didn't like him because he was cocky and had bad attitude. But, as he grew up, I started to respect him and understand what kind of man he really was. Especially, after he became a family man. When he became a family man, he got all my respect because he put his time and effort into his family by taking care of them all the time. Then, when his beautiful life was cut short, I was upset, sad, and cried my eyes out because of what he did to the game of basketball, how he changed for the better as a family member because he did everything to take care of his family. He proved me wrong when he became a better father, a better teammate and a better man for humanity. He died doing what he loved and I realized what a special person he was to the basketball community and to the world! As I write this, I'm crying my eyes out...😢.
Agreed. He was cocky when he entered the NBA, but can you fault him? All the greats (including MJ) has to come in as a rookie with some level of confidence and drive, or else they’re gonna be eaten up by the vets. I think that confidence comes across as “cockiness” but when they mature and settle in on their skills and leadership, that’s what really separates good players from the all-time greats!!
Never knew about that Kobe/Bow Wow challenge, but it looks hilarious & sad.
i remembered when it happened lol
Man! Kobe Bryan was a magnificent expression of intelligence, class, dedication, prowess, intensity, s ultra-competitiveness...EVERYTHING in one handsome man!
That video of Kyrie challenging Kobe to 1v1 is my all time favorite Kobe moment lowkey. It just speaks volumes to how much of a legend he really was.
Not really
YEAH THISA IS WHAT HAPPEN WHEN U HAVE SUPERTEAM LIKE OVERRATED KOBRICK JUST LIKE LIE THAT JORDAN TOOK PERSONAL MEANS ME + SHAQ VS 1 IVERSON OR ME + PIPPEN VS 1 DREXLER. KOBRICK AND JORDAN ARE NOBODIES.
@@PIP...33 Kobrick always had all star team? That 2008-10 Lakers team is good for 7th-8th seed without Kobe. Only reason why he's had the most brick is he is one of two guards on top 10 in scoring and he shot more 3s than MJ. Of course most bricks would come from some of the highest scorers. Unless you are expecting bigger guys to have mkre bricks when they can dunk and finish better.
@@JT-bs2lm GASOL IS HOF HE LED MEMPHIS TO PLAYOFF KEEP LIE U LIAR !! CRY HERE !! ARTEST WAS 2ND IN MVP AND WON DPOY IN PACERS AND LED THEM TO FINALS U HAVE 5 YEARS U LIAR !! ODOM WAS FRANCHISE PLAYER IN CLIPPERS, WITHOUT KOBRICK GASOL ODOM AND ARTEST WOULD WIN 5 RINGS.
@@JT-bs2lm Olajuwon and Wilt rare dunk they use fadeaways or mid range alo Kobe beg Hakeem to go into his school so I dont know what you talking bout dunks ?? Wtf you talk bout anyway on playoffs ??

Honestly I would probably be one of those players who understands what not to say and respect these players like Kobe. RIP
Kobe was awesome! He was my favorite NBA player.
May he Rest In Peace!🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Miss Kobe. Thank you for keeping his legend alive. Can't wait for the new Kobe shoes by Vanessa.
My favorite athlete of all times..the goat to me is the player who gave me the best memories and clutch moments in my life
Where do you rank Michael Jordan?
Michael jordan is the most iconic in basketball history
@@yessirrr5182 Oh I know Jordan is the goat..but I never seen him play.. My goat is Kobe..read it again my friend..And as far as Goat conversation..Kareem Accomplished the most..from high school to winning multiple championships at UCLA to a just as much a stellar career as Michael
@@jakechurch7506 yours is irrelevant
A.I. is one of the best players of all time. But let's be honest, even he could only do so much with that sixers roster...not a fair comparison. I just came to say that. R.I.P. to Kobe though.
Exactly, and we are just gonna sit here and act like AI was stopped 🤣 he averaged 36ppg in those finals.
@@carefulilickwindows6881 I guess they forgot.
Still his fault that his career peak was short. One of the best of all time but that lack of practice meant he prioritized his solo game/scoring than gelling with his team. Even though Kobe and Jordan was scoring a lot, you can always see them being in flow with their team knowing that they have rebounders when they iso and when to help in defense.
@@JT-bs2lm Kobe was literally a meme when it comes to not passing and not getting his teammates involved...
@@JT-bs2lm When I see you do what he did, then I'll take you serious...til then..later.
Gotta admit, I never cried when someone famous died, except Kobe. I lost it that day. Still so sad. Rip mamba!
This will forever be the man that put fear in players and made teams just except the greatness that was Kobe.💯
iverson making 50 points didnt save the 76ers either. plus kobe making every shot he put up, among others
Bruh I finally just subscribed after watching 4 vids of GSW and 3 of Kobe I can learn more about Kobe EVERY DAY! I'm a huge fan of him 🙏🤝🏽
Great page man I've literally watched like 3 videos straight. The way you introduced your next video in the end is so great and is a prefect follow up very good.
The love & respect that they had for one another was amazing
R.I.P Kobe man he played like a legend,and still is a legend in my eyes and always will be💔🥺
A true icon if not goat. His IQ and dedication to the sport is unparalleled., he works hard and no hyped."SO PURE AND NATURAL".
Kobe will never grow old. RIP
R.I.P Kobe. One of the GOATS of basketball. It goes Jordan, Kobe, and Bird. In that exact order. The 3 greatest to ever do it.

Great content 💯RIP MAMBA
It’s easy to forget how great Kobe was when your most recent memories were from his finals years when he pretty much just threw up wild shots every time he touched it.. after the Injury.
His last 3 years were so horrible
KB and Shaq traumatize my high school years…. Rip to the legend
Anyone who is really good at what they do grew up hearing that their dreams were impossible, I cant tell you how many times I heard "you better have a backup plan," bur for some of us, doubting and trash talking lights a fire in you and gives you drive like nothing else. No back up plan needed cuz failure was never on the table.
These stories of Kobe is exhilarating and inspiring
Heroes get remembered, but LEGENDS live forever 🐍🖤
SOLID LAKERS NATION KB 8 24 MAMBA MENTALLY RIP ONCE A LEGEND ALWAYS A LEGEND
"You're not going to lock me up." That game, as a 20 year old, Kyrie had 28 points and 11 assists on 52% shooting. "You're not going to lock me up, man. You are not going to lock me up."
There will never be another #KOBE💯
Love you Kobe! RIP mamba
This New Era of players don't have that killer Instinct Kobe worked hard to endure
It’s still mind blowing that he passed. One of the worst days of my life. I’m from LA and grew up around his greatness. When we all met up at Staples for mourning, it was just so surreal.
Was never a big Kobe Bryant fan in the beginning, but I know better than to ever trash talk a legend
Ai was technically alone.. Coby had shac for some years and also was alone, i still find Ai was one of the Best against Coby. great friendship of the court and great players on the court.
How dumb can you be to watch this video and read what others are saying and still spell his name wrong? It’s KOBE, not COBY! Damn, stay in school or go back.🤣
So what I’ve learned is not only not to mess with Kobe but also that he can really hold a grudge
he does. jalen rose, jones and few others
Kobe was one of the greatest bc he had that competitive drive and focus that is relentless. He never forgets and will always train 1000% more than anyone to make sure he is one of the best. There is only one other person in the NBA that had that level of intensity and relentless determination and focus- and that was MJ.
That’s why why we miss our legends R I P ❤
Why I hated Kobe so much… killed my fav team .. cocky… mann I miss kobe RIP. Can’t believe he’s gone 😔

Shumphert didn’t trash talk Kobe. He was excited within himself that he was having success for 3 quarters against Kobe. Kobe just turned it up in the 4th and he decided to kill Shumpherts happiness.
Great video thank you
Real Facts.🔥🔥🔥
💪 *KOBE TOOK IT PERSONALLY!*
rest in power brother. much missed
Yesssirrr you inserted the actual clips and voices, nice one bro!
MJ and Kobe were alike and brothers in mindset. They ALWAYS rose to the occasion, especially if you talk crap to them. It grinds my teeth even now, because I am the same way in all 6 sports I played growing up and showing out. I bring the heat, baby! Well, wait, not at 62, but I did. I ruptured my achilles blocking some fools shot at 5e years old before I hung-up my shoes for good. It was around the same time Kobe did the same thing - except, he was playing again fore I could even jog. For real!!!! LOL
Even though I’m clipps fan this is forever be my favorite player
Now that i heard this i know for sure kyrie knew EXACTLY what he was doing. I gotta respect it. He knew what kinda challenge he was asking for and braced himself for it.
Makes me think it was a way of asking to learn from Kobe.
I saw that when Kyrie challenged him. Kobe was tickled by it. Their banter back and forth was good natured.
nice vid thanks !
The best to ever do it... Kobe "Bean" Bryant aka Black mamba 🐍 R.I.P my brotha!!
Miss that black mamba the moves he alone could do perfectly. Oh suave.
Bow Wow is the biggest cornball of them all 😂😂😂
I used to watch more and more of Kobe during his last season with the lakers and I remember now I don't have him to watch anymore.
Mamba mentality baby!!! RIP to my brother may God welcome him into his kingdom with open arms!
If A.I. would've been 6'5 he may have been arguably the BEST player that ever lived... that's including Jordan, Wilt, Kareem, Bird, and Kobe.
It ain't no guarantee that AI would have been as fluid as flexible as he is now if he was 6/5
If your aunt had balls shed be your uncle
Allen Iverson scored 48 on Kobe...I rest my case
The only reason I've ever watched basketball was Kobe. Listened to all of his interviews and he taught me to be the man. I am. I cried as hard as I did when I lost my brother
"if I wanted to dunk on you, I'd hug you with one hand and take you up with me" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I do not care what anyone says. YOU CAN NOT DEFEAT THE BLACK MAMBA NO MATTER WHAT YOU DO!

After Jordan of course who Kobe modeled his game, his demeanor and his vocal tone after during after game press conferences.
You can trash talk Lebron and nothing happens
He will get angry and start to hog the ball then choke 😂
Who is LeBron?
Kobe/Bow Wow challenge is too funny. I swear a lot of these celebs think they can ball till u see them actually play lol
Facts straight stone cold assassin RIP Black Mamba
Luke 12:15 And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth.
Nah. Kobe can't guard AI. It was Tyrone Lue who stopped AI from scoring 30 points in a half. You see, Phil tried almost every player to guard AI and for some reason, he managed to pull Tyrone Lue after AI scored 30 points in the first half of the 1st game. And let's be real here, it was Shaq who carried the Lakers to 4 straight wins against the 76ers. All of the 76ers bigman were all in foul trouble including Mutombo. Nobody can guard Shaq that time until the referees started counting 3 seconds violation for Shaq, who usually laid eggs on that shaded area. But that didn't happen till around 2002 or 2003 if I'm not mistaken. Then the Hack-a-Shaq started as well, I'm not sure but I think it was Don Nelson who started it, using Dampier? Lol. Overall, Kobe still owns AI, career-wise, legacy-wise but it is not Kobe who stopped AI on that Finals match, it was Tyrone Lue!
You mean Ty Lue who fell from AI's crossover and got stepped over?
@@H3roin1620 Yes. Lue didn't stop him tbh, he slowed him down. Otherwise, AI should've been scoring 40-50+ every game. Don't forget AI's post game interview "A lot of Shaquille O'Neal!"
Hack-a-Shaq was the Bulls strategy in 1996.
@@bobm.8429 yeah but that next year and 04, Kobe locked ai up by watching out cheetahs chase their pray and how sharks use angles to get their pray. Its nuts but it worked.
Kobe can't guard Ai?! Come on now Kobe didn't make All-Defensive Team 12x for nothing. Look up the game when prime Ai had 16pts in the first half when NOT guarded by Kobe. Then in the second half Phil put Kobe on him man to man the rest of the way. Guess what Ai finished with, 16pts. Kobe guarded everyone. Btw, I understand you finished with saying is wasn't Kobe who stopped Ai in that specific match but you opened with "Nah, Kobe can't guard Ai." which is totally false.
dude Kobe is the legendary basketball player R.i.p Kobe
Kobe 4 ever...my favorite always...
wow amazing vid
Reggae haired? Um, ok. But anyway, "Remember you asked for this." 😂😂😂 That along with "You had a good game" were my favorites in this bunch! Lol 😂 I ADORE that type of confidence more than anything in the world! (Aside from Innocence.)
I caught that too!
How he did bow wow was HILARIOUS!!
That's the equivalent of talking smack to Tyson before a fight.
He really couldn't guard AI tho and vice versa RIP
You must didn't watch any of the games after Game 1 til the end of AI's career. Kobe stayed clamping him after that.
@@mullymullyt what are you talking about , AI averaged 35.6 ppg in that finals and Kobe averaged 24.6 , if holding him to 35 ppg is clamping down then imagine if he didn't clamp down , secondly they played against one another 48 times , AI averaged 26.6 and Kobe 25.1 , so you have no idea of what speak
@@tangobelair smdh if you didn't watch any of those games (which I'm sure you didn't) don't comment
@@mullymullyt I was at game 1. I told my friend b/4 they put Lou on iverson they needed to do it b/c he was too quick for Kobe. I called it.
@@tangobelair You're lying Kobe barely guarded him that game. Kobe locked on him the 2nd Half of Game 2 & had him scoreless that half. After that game, Kobe guarded him whenever they needed to slow him down. Lue & Fish guarded him most of the time unless a stop was needed then Kobe got on him
I respect Kyrie he supposed to challenge better players. That’s how greatness is created. Rip Kobe. Salute Kyrie.
Hi edagdwg God bless Kobe Bryant with a forever love for respect and enjoy playing basketball with a forever smile when he takes over a and wins the game a forever loving fan Linda j. Peace
What was 'Lil Bow Wow thinking?!?! Glad Kobe didn't even let him have 1 😂😂
Man A.I put up Hugh numbers on Kobe!!! Do the research, Kobe did shut him out in a game in the second half of that game, mind you A.I. had games of 48, 51, 41 as well as other big games against him. So go ahead and mention the one time he had a good game. A.I. always went against Kobe & Shaq or Kobe & some other star, A.I went to war basically himself!!! Believe me if Shaq wasn't a Laker, Philly wins the Title in 6!!! Facts!!!
kzhead.info/sun/n62Gh5WfbKNjqI0/bejne.html
Ai put huge numbers on Tyrone Lue, Shaw and Derek Fisher, not Kobe.. do your research
Comon bro AI is nice but he's not Kobe
100% agree
Ah, the what ifs of basketball, we'll never know
I believe there was no player to beat kobe one on one kobe was just a beast.

Kobe humbled so many trash talkers RIP Mamba 🐍
RIP Kobe 🙏🙏
Man i was with you started talking about AI. I feel like you read some stories and dont really KNOW what happened during that series. SHAQ was the reason they won that ring against philly. You do not know what you talking about.
I literally watched the series between AI and Kobe, AI was busting up the Lakers dropping 50 in a couple of games and this while giving up 6-7 inches to Kobe in height. AI didn't have any real offensive help.
Unstoppable r.I.p. mamba
To be fair, Iverson played against the Lakers and the refs. It was a lot of B.S. that helped the Lakers seal the deal.
no I was there at game one , Kobe could not guard him they brought in tyrone Lou , and Iverson was just to good although I will concede that he got the benefit of foul calls against shaq in the overtime game , there was reason shaq won 3 MVP's while playing together w/ Kobe , he did it by himself and if doubt me look at Kobe's shooting % in the each of his finals
AI trash talk back fired on him? Well Iverson didn’t have Shaq to back him up. 6’ 160 pounds and it took 2 HOF Top 15 players of all time to beat him.
Beat him you mean the Lakers owning the sixers in the finals he had one of best defensive teams they couldn't handle Lakers out man and out gunned
Shaq fouled out game 3 with 1 point lead Kobe took over to win in closing minutes hit a thought shot and sinking clutch free throws to seal the game
@@slimsolo8171 dude really? Shaq and Kobe Vs AI? 2 top 10 all time players vs a 6ft 160 pound guard and a bunch of bench players. Add Ron Harper, Horace Grant, Fox, Fisher, Isaiah Rider and Horry!. You take Shaq out of that team and 76 would’ve won.
Actually A.I. torched Kobe on a number of one on one plays. Kobe was not the Mamba yet
R.I.P LEGEND-BLACK MAMBA
