Kobe Bryant on Friendship with Michael Jordan & Magic Johnson
• Kobe Bryant on Friends...
“He’s like a big brother”. MJ: I lost a little brother. RIP KOBE
Brooo i was just saying this
@@thepac12andbig10suck I know, the fact that they referred to each other as brothers in 2 different moments gives MJ's speech a more depth meaning.
2 legends
If you watch both of their interviews about each other they both mention the big bro/lil bro relationship they had. Don’t think anyone took it seriously til MJ made that speech
Imagine going in a restaurant and seeing micheal Jordan and Kobe having dinner together💀💀💀
esdras sagastume Before imagining that, imagine Dennis Rodman, Ben Wallace, and Ron Artest eating dinner together
Everyone's shits bout to be snuffed out in that restaurant
Leonard Balajadia 😂😂😂 I'd leg it
esdras sagastume probably you wanna look my bad chanel🙏
I would straight up challenge them to a game of 2 on 2 just for the privilege of getting trash talked and whooped by them two legends.
“Mike come on now...enjoy the salad.” 😂😂😂 man I’m gonna miss this legend. Rip Mamba.
Kobe said be patient. Don’t trade away the young players. Flash forward that’s exactly what they did lol.
Guapo Capo lebron curse
I was just going to type that
He also said if you can get Davis, you do it.
I was just thinking that
And we’re all gonna look back and say how great they’ve become.
Kobe: He (MJ) is like a big brother. Man after watching that memorial, Jordan really did lose a little brother
Thumbs up if you ever made the paper ball / bottle shot from across the room and yelled “KOBE”
Darth Vader only casual cookie cutters do that.
+Crunch Buttsteak gu .gujbch .
L V 🥴 hell no
L V , No I yelled “Jordan”!
I yell KOBE! every time. Jordan just doesn't sound right.
"You gotta be patient....last thing you wanna do is break the team up and see how great these guys were when they're gone" -Kobe Bryant
Already begun, DeAngelo Russell kinda screwed himself over, but he is the first sign of these young players succeeding elsewhere after being shipped out.
@@bosoxfan131 Randle??
@@bosoxfan131 yep..but Kobe said this last season before LeBron was a thought. And they did exactly that...I guarantee they's have a better record than they did last if they didnt get LeBron
Sums up 2012 OKC 😂😂😂😂
Thotty DaGod okc harden🥺🤦♂️😪😭😔
Rest in Peace to Kobe Bryant and his daughter Gianna.
Rip Kobe Bryant
he's such an articulate man
Fernanda Ferrairo i don't know what articulate means but i love your comment.
Kobe Bryant hahah it means he's well-spoken.
he words good
He speaks so wellll....lol
Your wonderwall oasis cover is really good! Kobe is almost too well spoken
Rest In Peace, Legend. 😭 Kobe Bryant (1978 - 2020)
I would pay just to speak to Kobe
JAYDN ERA about what? Lol
i think a lot of us would
JAYDN ERA Same bro
I love kobe
you cant afford it
I grew up watching this man play. Always liked him as a person, This is tragic news.... .Im sorry to the family. RIP Kobe, and your Daughter Gigi and the rest of the People killed. So sad:((
bella jfk do we know who else passed yet?
@@joecosgrave7693 9 People in Total, his daughters friend and her parents, a college baseball coach, the pilot..we still have to wait for the coroners official statement.
I know watching him play as a young kid I thought he was bigger than the world like does anything impress this guy he can do anything I never felt that way about anyone ever
Kobe took Magic's signature No Look Pass and turned to his signature No Pass Look
Lmao
🗣🗣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Clever 💯 🤣
You deserve a like!!!
Tf
I just can't believe that he is actually dead that doesn't feel real.
Most tragic death of the 21st century. Alot of legends have died in the past 20 years but the way he died and the fact that he died with his daughter too just makes it extra upsetting.
Nobody live forever.
FRY Kobe passed away, he is not dead!. His legacy lives on in his daughters. He lives on for he was a very impactful basketball player and father. Therefore his teachings on the court are received and will be reflected and seen on the court. His daughters will say things that he once said, therefore Kobe is not dead!.
It'll never feel real. I didn't think I would cry about Kobe but I did.
My heart sank reading and considering this.
Who’s here after hearing his passing🤧😭
Me too.
Me 💔💔💔💔
Don't talk about it
Me so sad😭
Me
Kobe's mind just blown
"He's like a big brother" Sent chills down my spine, and then i teared up a little. Chills as i'm typing this. So sad honestly. Big bro's got your back just like the rest of the world's got your back. Rest in peace and harmony, legend.
Its very emotional seeing kobe saying he is like a big brother. You realize both felt the same way. They admired each other.
Love watching Kobe interviews.
If I can just go back in time and see him and give him a hug... that would be nice.
RIP Kobe and Gianna. Two incredible people gone too young. My condolences to the family. Legends never die
RIP Kobe and Gigi I’m so broken hearing this my heart hurts 😤😫🤦🏽♀️
That friendship between Kobe and Michael..oh God..he's gone now
Kobe I've always been a bulls fan even now still loyal, but I always said you are the next great from Jordan love you and Gi Gi ,gone but never forgotten 😥😔👊
I just can't stop crying I literally watch every Kobe video rest in peace my idol!
Still come back to this every once in a while😔 Rip big bro
You go out for a dinner with your wife, next thing you hear is 2 dudes arguing. You go closer and hear: "No chance, because in 1993 ... Also you know I was better in 1998." "Mike, I would win, you know that, because in 2008 ... And you were never better than me ..." You look over and see MJ and Kobe arguing over some pointless stuff 😂😂
SedaW LoL this comment is underrated
Dude!
Only brothers can argue those things. If we are not close enough, we will say good stuff to each other and didn't need to point at those salad lol
Just to hear the mamba’s voice Rest in paradise Kobe
As MJ23 said in Kobe’s memorial, he’s Kobe’s big brother. 💔
Only player who can talk about jordan like that and jordan being okay about it thats respect bruh !!
Celebrities die every year and I never feel anything but Kobe, Kobe feels different it’s been months and I’m still not over it just doesn’t seem real, it’s hard to believe never was a basketball fan but it’s the mindset I respected but still not over this one and I don’t think I will be anytime soon.
I never was a fan of Kobe, but he is, clearly, a top 5 player of all time and the greatest Laker of all time.
I‘m not sure if you care, but I just wanted to say, I truly love ppl like you, who acknowledge the greatness of certain players despite not being a fan. 👍🏼 A lot of those ppl would try to hate on someone, who they don‘t like and do almost everything to tarnish the legacy of basketball players
I would love to be in a room with Kobe and MJ. Probably so much trash talk!
I recommend you don't enter, or it will end up being you who is trash-talked. 😂😂😂
bruh better stand outside the room
Vince H yeahhhh don’t do that to yourself. You’ll come back out with a negative self-esteem
they never talk trashed and each other , MJ admired Kobe’s being competitive and always give him advices , like how to do certain moves ... they were like big and little brother relationship.. so get lost with your nonsense
RIP such a good human being, so much more sad, his daughter joined him in heaven so young
So heartbreaking 😫😭😢 We all grew up watching Kobe Bryant So sad 😢 This one truly hits home
Kobe you were awesome, we miss you, greatest player of the 2000s decade for sure, LEGEND!RIP!
Happy to hear that the Kobe is promoting loyalty. The Lakers have potential. Ingram needs to continue being confident. Kuzma is showing off (don't get injured), Lonzo is getting accustomed, Julius has real potential. Absolutely trust the process.
Rest in peace Kobe 💔
He always was and will be a example of sportsmanship, humble, sacrifice, effort and all other stuffs like this. I hope that up there, he's still be in our hearts and our memory. He's been one of my childhood's friends even though I never was a basketball fan. Rest in peace man
It’s still hard to believe Kobe is gone So tragic RIP Mamba
I like how media personalities always try and get celebrities to make up friendships and stuff and Kobe is just like "yeah, I sometimes talk to these peoples, but we ain't friends like that." He was so real and candid. He meant what he said. Gotta love that in a man.
Kobe is MJ oldest son.. Dont argue
So that means MJ was 16 when he had Kobe
Black Panther yep
@@mystic6301 it's possible if you are twisted enough
Black Panther oh do shut up black panther ya chump
Its possible if you grew up in america.
I love you Kobe. Until this very moment you still make me cry
It just came up in my recommendations .RIP Kobe ,may Allah bless your journey here after . A big fan from Kashmir
Hes was so charismatic
I remember years ago when kids in school used to throw paper balls at trashcan and say kobe and I would roll my eyes. Now I'm just straight up sobbing Rest in peace Kobe. 🙏 ❤️
Rest In Peace to Kobe, gigi, and the other beautiful lives that were taken yesterday💕😕 may y’all rest in paradise
RIP bro...🙏🙏🙏🙏 We never forget you. Big love from Greece
What I love about Kobe is the fact that he is a man full of respect, if its MJ, Magic, Dirk - real recognize real.
Kobe Bryant is a living Legend
He dead now
Ain't livin anymore
Red Vanderbilt I think he knows that ! But he posted that statement 2 years ago bro.....
Rest in paradise Kobe you and your beautiful family
I'm so sorry Kobe Bryant. May your soul rest in peace. May your family be OK. You are only one year older than me but your a great role model. I will always know you are the best basketball player I've ever seen.
Turn around fadeaway, toungue, and mannerisms. "My idol is Magic Johnson" -KOBE
lol ahhaha
🙌🏽 love the end! Gave me hope for the Lakers. We’ll get through it 💪🏽💜💛
Rest in peace to a great player and an even greater man!
The simplicity and passion of this man is the reason why MJ stated a piece of him and all of us died when Kobe Bryant died.
RIP LEGEND
Rip Kobe and his daughter
Kobe will always be a legend.
you always be in our hearts R.İ.P kobe
The GOAT, and the beef.
J
New Message probably you wanna look my bad chanel🙏
W
never a chicken though... respect
After MJ maybe...
The comment where Kobe explains that losing these good young players and seeing them perform in other places (Julius randle - D-lo) is becoming more and more relevant.
RIP Kobe, great man, you will be missed!
We miss you Kobe, Rest In Peace 🖤💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜💛💜
Kobe: You gotta be patient to see the young talents and the last thing you gotta is break the team up. LeBitch: Imma trade ya'll
LeFraud Blames..🤔🤔
2:54, LeFraud Blames actually did that.. And those players are Ballin. 🏀
Thinking about Kobe man I swear I miss you dearly
Humble man. Rest easy kobe.
I like how all the separate videos on this interview basically have the same thumbnail.
Kobe
He still had so much to give to the world man 😔
RIP Kobe. Your legendary story will live forever.
I believe he would play a great Martian Manhunter..... He seem so focus and articulated ( and a "almost to good for this world" kind of presence).
Eduardo Armenta That is not how Martian Manhunter is at all. He does not look down on humanity.
ironman6992 "presence" meaning it could be the opinions of people around him, not necessarily his own.
Perfect
Eduardo Armenta yoooo
Eduardo Armenta wow 😮
When he says to Mike.. Just enjoy your salad 🤣🤣🤣🤗🤗🤗 Such a nice guy.. Amazing husband and a caring father.. You will be missed dear Kobe May God give strength your girls to carry on without you RIP Kobe & Gigi RIP other friends Mamba out
"They have a bright future, just have to be patient. Last thing you wanted to do is break the team up then four, five years from now look back see how great they are someplace" -Kobe, 2018 :'(
he was so perfect for the lakers and LA, he was a superstar from birth
RIP 2020 :(
Kobe loved playing basketball, Kobe loved taking the last shot, Kobe loved winning championships and Kobe loved perfecting his craft. But none of this compares (not even close) to how much he loved being a Dad and it really showed. RIP Kobe.
RIP Kobe. What a legend.
R.I.P
Why's this in my recommandations just after he dies...
Think you answered your own question there.
That's how KZhead algorithm works.
Becasue he died. . .
Kobe is literally all of my social media feeds right now. He's the only thing on there and I'm not even mad. Celebrate the man.
Terribly frustrating seeing him enjoying life after retirement and then getting cut of life. So unfair.
He will go on to have a better life with his daughter in heaven.
John carlo Llavor we don’t know about that bro, that’s in gods hands, we don’t know if this guy was good or bad.
“Legends never die”
I'ma miss this dude man 💔 Jimmy Kimmel I see why you were wheezing at the memorial ceremony.
THis man is equivalent of greatness
You can find one of his numbers up in there. Gr8ness! R.i.P, Kobe Bryant!
I love how he mentioned Kuzma. Kobe my all time favorite player...Kuzma my now favorite player 😌💜💛
So heartbreaking. Rest in Peace Champ. 🙏🏻
Who’s watching after his death...😢😢
Me
Ac. Milan retired the Maldini’s (# 3) and Baresi’s (#6) jerseys respectively in 2009 and 1997. They were the historical Milan captains.
I was looking for this comment. The best defensive duo football world has ever seen. Kind of goes to show how the American population are oblivious to sports which are not popular in their country. :)
two different person, but in Kobe case, it's 2 jersey of him
I miss you so Much Kobe😭❤️
Kobe will miss to us you were very cool person rest in peace legend
RIP... same interview different feelings now.
Kimmel is me if I ever saw Kobe “YOU’RE THE GREATEST LAKER”
Never been into basketball until now, out of all the famous players, I like Kobe the best!
Kobe,, u r a legend bro,,,miss u a lot
"Who picks up the check?" "He does, he's big brother. Big brother always picks up the check." RIP little brother.
Man watching MJ’s speech made me realize they really were like brothers
cringe
"he's just like a big brother"
Rip Kobe let your heart and soul achieve people dreams
RIP we love you Kobe💗😢
Listen to Kobe. Don't go breaking the team up trying to bring in somebody who is going to leave you high and dry in a year, who you would have had to coddle and pander to in order for them to come.
wilsonsmanz look at the team now...
