Here is Kobe Bryant dropping 45 points at the Drew League back in 2011. James Harden was the 2nd leading scorer with 44. Players included DeMar DeRozan, Derrick Williams, Ed Davis, Casper Ware, Gerard Anderson, and many others. The Black Mamba hit the game winner in the final seconds. It was just announced that Kobe Bryant, Tim Duncan, and Kevin Garnett will be inducted in the Naismith Basketball Hall Of Fame this year.
All those people that braced Kobe after the buzzer beater will have a memory of a lifetime ! Rip Champ

That’s why we love Kobe, he always came through when u wanted him to the most. Man I miss that guy
We all do bro.
maybe the most clutch player ever.. not just buzzerbeaters,, but always scoring in the 4th quarter.. hitting harddd shots too.. never scared of the moment,, thats what ppl and players call that Mamba Mentality..

I paused multiple times to see his footworks. That's what Kobe would want people to do and remember. His craft would never be lost and his legends would never die. NEVER!
after hitting that shot and kids ran on the court. Just pure greatness....Rest Well Mamba.....it still hurts damn it man
and that kid grew up to be lebron james
Damn does it still hurt.
@@DonEasy My dude, it will always fucking hurt.
@@DonEasy is u stupid it will always hurt he was a IDOL

Teared up when he raised both arms in the end. It was like he was inviting everyone into his championship space. Man...

@@MrSuckafree247 ,Man I am right with you! I miss that brother!
I felt dat same way , FRFR.....
Interesting how DeRozan didn’t shoot a single midrange jumper the whole game, but nowadays he’s keepin’ the midrange alive in memory of Mamba! 🐍
He did shoot one. You probable missed it but it took mostly dunks.
He shot one then Kobe did the same thing and cooked him
highschool 3s are midrange in the nba
You're pathetic
I couldn’t help but to cry at the very end of the game seeing how many people loved him!
You're trash dude
same here. Its been 4 years and I still get emotional. #MYGOAT
Harden blocks Kobe's fadeaway and makes a three in Kobe's face Kobe: That's when I took it personally

The game winning shot and him standing there everybody runs to him.. shit hit different. 🥺

Shit hit different ? Can you translate not English
Samsquanch 123 means something hits u differently than other things
Samsquanch 123 the feeling of a deep emotional attachment to one thing or person, usually in the form of a picture, video clip or quote. When “shit hit different”, it usually causes you to reflect on the past
@@samsquanch1234 It is English,. It's a phrase, it's slang, for something that impacted u deeper or has more meaning now that certain events or situations have occurred.
There will be no one like Kobe, miss him everyday...
I love how Kobe was just practicing his post moves/footwork the whole game but was still amazing for all of us to watch. Love you Kobe!!!
The whole city was talking about Kobe that day! I remember like yesterday "Kobe hit the game winner at the Drew League!" R.I.P Mamba
Which city is that?
I was there and it was awesome!!

When he walks into the gym and even the ball wants to shake Kobe’s hand 😂 Legendary 🐏🙌🏽💯
Harden. DeRozan. Some all time great NBA scorers. ...When you think you're going to be The Guy in the gym that day. Then your mean uncle shows up right before tipoff. ...Ah Sh!t. Here we go.
He let the fans run up to him and genuinely loved the interaction with everyone. THAT is the reason why, on top of his play, that MANY people in the world consider him the greatest. On AND off the court!! RIP Bean!
The fact that they had this game in a rec gym makes this even more special for the kids
If you didn't get there early, you wasn't getting in.
Quincy Reese I’m sure
Then the kids got to embrace him...dope
For the NBA world in general
The fact that everyone who guarded Kobe knew the post fade was coming but still couldn’t stop it 🐐
James harden guarded him expect less
Jeremy Herbuela james stopped it once while everyone else couldnt sooo
@@jeremyherbuela884 Harden is actually a good post defender. In every other situation he is a trash, lazy defender, but he is actually good at guarding people in the post. You can actually see in the video he blocked one of Kobe's fades
They played this game like the All-star game. Nobody's really playing defense!!!🤭🤴🏿
Calm down Jordan did it better than this chump
Guy was one of a kind. We won't see anyone leave behind a legacy like Kobe, not in our lifetime at least. Dude was gifted
People That Touched Him After The Game Winner Will Never Forget That Day ❤

@@cry_now_laugh_later its a fact for everyone who feels Kobe a little
You can tell Demar was having a lot of fun, pure smile
As i read these comments, when i watched him throw his hands up, I remember all the times as a kid watching him live on tv. I used to always be in awe, he left us speechless, thrilled, flamboyant. The difference between him and MJ is his love for the game. Its something that exuded out of him, he made US love it. His aura was different, Like Jordans except he gave it back to the people. This is why to me he's the goat, besides the work ethic, the inspiration he gave, the time he took. It was the way he recognized it and gave it back to us. Love you Kobe, always have always will. Just like everyone else here commenting, your presence is now a crater in our lives. But your spirit shall never die. My son will watch u, my grandkids will hear about you. Your name will live forever. Black Mamba!
❤️💯
I'm still shocked by how much it hurts that dude is gone. His passing hit me like a ton of bricks for some reason like I knew the dude. RIP to Kobe.
Same man I wanted for him to grow old and mentor the upcoming generation as well as be a father to his daughters but man life can really shock one at times. To me basketball will never be the same again unless he's somehow reincarnated into another young body to change today's game of just chucking up threes and having no footwork skills to get the job done
I cried like a baby
Cringe
Do you guys have father's in your life? Just curious because I see a lot of posts like this, and I don't understand crying over someone I didn't know personally.
What do you mean for some reason? It hurt everyone and still does. Guy was a real life super hero. One of a kind. You won't see anyone leave a legacy behind like his, not in our lifetime at least
“The best player in the world Kobe Bryant” 20 seconds on the clock, Kobe gets the ball, the whole crowd starts chanting. Just like in Kobe’s Dear Basketball video, I can’t think of how much more of a legend he could be
Stop it! Man his not a legend his a mythic!!! His not only a legend! His the best! Damn whilr typing this i am still hurt when he passed awat
The end of this video is absolutely beautiful. It epitomizes what Kobe Bryant meant to communities across the country.
Man, the ending gets me. The first person to hug Kobe, was a little kid. He must be watching every damn day. Miss you Kobe.
The way the crowd chants his name and all that pressure to make the shot and he did. Legendary man
for him it's just Thursday
🥱what pressure?
What I loved about Kobe was how he altered his game so much as he got older. He couldn't use his athleticism as much, so he became a shooter. And the thing is, he was just as effective and was still one of the best players in the world after making that transition.
Honestly, seeing his transition from the explosive and athletic #8 to the more precise and methodical #24 was a joy to watch
He became more of a post player actually and worked on his footing and shot fakes
so basically like Jordan
@@tisbutascratch3655 exactly
Just like Jordan baby.
This is legendary. James Harden has this story to tell. Great matchup.
watching it now , just AMAZING , PRIME hARDEN AND kOBE GOING AT IT
Just a pure legend. He’s hitting game winners in every circuit, court and levels. Amazing.
Harden and Kobe were having so much fun. Love it.
I had no idea Harden was this good in Summer 2011. So skilled, and then Kobe the most skilled ever doing this at age 33. Respect to both.
Demar couldn't stop him at all but I love how he just kept guarding Kobe most of the time. Getting to play against his idol like that must have been really awesome to him.
That move he put on Kobe at 8:45 mark was filthy though
@@israeltorres9695 I'ts from 8:40 onwards idiot. Your time stamp is well after the play.
Huh they wasn't trying 🤔
harden was low key going crazy
@@raseanbenton7605 probably not the same intensity as playoffs or an important regular season game. But with cameras, a large crowd and the fact that it’s in LA I bet Kobe, Demar and Harden wanted to show out for the hometown.
This video is a perfect depiction of Kobe Bryant and why everybody loved him.
STILL come back to this video often
Kobe tried the same shot after getting blocked and made it. Thats just shows you what type of player he was: fearless.
And COMPETITIVE
Adaptive
ok
Yeah he is savage
If first time u don't succeed, do it again
A basketball legend who actually became a “legend”.
Indeed 💗
Damn man, with him passing so young I'll always remember him that way. *Forever* *Young*
@@dayserierue5185 aæa
I come to watch this highlight once a year. Chills everytime he hits the game winner. Life ain’t fair, they robbed me of my idol …
This is one thing that MJ never had that Kobe does have. MJ never came amongst his people and played for them and have them chant his name as their champion………..But Bean did it TWICE. In my eyes that’s comparable to a championship, which would put Kobe at 7 to Mj’s 6. RIP Mamba ✊🏾
I watched this clip in its entirety twice and the thing that stood out to me the most was how much Kobe was holding back and still dominated. His foot work, was extraordinary.
Kobe was borderline jogging the whole game and throwing up garbage and it was still cash lol
Yup. He was just cruising.
Foot work and fundamentals saves your energy for defense, why Jordan went from slashing and pick and roll to the post.
...he was 33 at this point too... toying with kids. Harden/Derozan are 21
@Spenser Dickerson Kobe didn't have the luxury to play with a Tim Duncan or a kg, he still had gasol post Shaq but gasol was no top 15 player at that time or was a top 100 player of all time and he did what he did and won 5 for the city of angels this city will forever belong to kobe even if he ain't here no more.
Started crying once the crowd ran out & all he showed was love! Simply an amazing human
I’m gonna drop my 👍🏽 here to keep the count at 81
Man. You gotta keep rewinding it and peep people in the backgrounds smiles … he brought a lot of happiness to people that day
@@jameslaflare9840 exactly what i just did rewinding the game winner several times just to see everyone's reaction individually,the sheer admiration everyone has for him makes me wanna cry fr
Incredible i have thé samedi age , it s à strangulation feeling
Kobe always came to play no matter if he was making 400k a game or putting on a show for the fans, whether it was streetball at the EBC or Exhibition at the Drew League. RIP Mamba.
i just watched lebron miss the last free throw and came to this vid ...lol lakers 4 life tho man kobe shakes demar on the first play ....the slight hesi there ...( sheds tear ) watching kobe play is like listening to classical music like bach or beethoven mozart Legends Live 4 ever
The people's champ...Kobe..Kobe..Kobe..as a tear rolls down my cheek but I'm smiling at the same time...long live the black mamba#8 #24..
I felt this hard man
16:30 captures it perfectly man. I miss him bro
His fade-away 2 pointer is 100% accurate every time 🤣 RIP KOBE
oh yeah... he modeled it after Jordan's. Nobody will be like Kobe and Jordan. The two greatest of all-time.
@@EliacinBased nah
@@EliacinBased true
The knee up so you can’t get close enough to block or tip

Rarely did we see Kobe playing with a smile all over the court. He really enjoyed the game. RIP the Black Mamba.
The crowd knew, the opposition knew... but it still couldn't be stopped. Legend!!
Please never take this video down this is one of the best videos i ever seen with kobe in it well done sir or miss
u can download it
@@kodyscot9360 😂
That’s all I needed
HAHAHA
Take it down
Seeing Kobe raise his hands at the end made me cry………😥😥😥😥😥😥 Him and his beautiful girl are really gone………😥😥😥😥😥😥
It’s so hard to watch 😢
They're with us bro.
it wasn't supposed to go down this way
I just cried too, smh😔😔
Heroes come and go, but Legends are forever! Continue RIP Mamba!!
Kobe is so infectious can't believe he's deceased. Every content of him, is joyful and sad to watch at the same time
I just hope covid19 happened early. So kobe would just stay home.
Damn its true
I have mixed feelings about that statement tbh. But yes I do feel that.
I was thinking literally that same thing the other day. I'll go a step further.... If fucking China would have just been honest about everything Kobe would still be here
@@literallynothing8934 what are you having mixed feelings about nothing wrong with that statement, stop looking to be offended.
Damo. At iba pa shut ur face, cockhead. Better wish neither happened
What was rare about Kobe, as a professional athlete, is that man knew how much his fans loved him, he felt it, he loved them too,he just didn’t play for himself, he played for them too, there’s was a special connection there
Well said comment 👌🏽👌🏽🥲
FACTS LIKE WHEN HE PLAYED AT THE RUCKER.
this
Exactly. Imagine someone dedicating their life towards getting better so other ppl can see. crazy
This comment made me cry a little
I'm so glad this popped up on my recommended. I remember this so well, it got a ton of hype in LA at the time, and has kinda been forgotten as one of the special moments within his legacy. Thank you so much for posting it!
What a great moment for those there in attendance. RIP Mamba 🥺
16:30 bet Kobe felt like he was back in his high school days for just a moment. Beautiful.
Sometimes I lose the love when you get paid for it. This was a feel good moment for him
@@cooldudecs Oh yeah, for sure. You could see it in his eyes.
Man the feels... When he smiles at the end embracing all the people 😥.. RIP Champ
LeBUM even stacks his drew league teams with NBA players while Kobe stacked them against himself. The true GOAT not even close!
Damn I miss Kobe so much he was so great for the game his presence was felt every time and best father your could ask for we lost a great human
What he did to us: *"The most important thing is to try and inspire people so that they can be great in whatever they want to do."*
His control is so underrated. Never forced, footwork is impeccable. The could have ran the same post by the right wing every play and scored. His dribbles are simple and down hill. Just amazing to watch.
Everybody wants to be MJ, but only Kobe did it!
@@hg0hg015 Nailed it!
@@hg0hg015 Not really when you realize LeBron is the most complete player
@@Tenchi707 cuz he ain't, dude be trying hard with his footworks and fades like kicking a kung fu shit.. bron's trash. bron was only known and became famous because of his size and same old dunks🤣
@@Tenchi707 lebrón didnt do it like Kobe
Hell of a game. What a memory for everyone in attendance & the players that got to participate in the game.
This memory brings back memories of the most lit summer for basketball ever. But It feel dope to know I played in a league Kobe played in.💯
One thing that does bring peace for me is to think that Kobe & his young daughter still have one another as they journey on together. I would imagine his daughter has great comfort that her dad is still right there with her even after death. Prayers and love for Kobe, his daughter, & his family!
That shit Sounds good but NO ONE REALLY KNOWS WHAT'S NEXT.BUT THAT SHIT ABOUT HEAVEN AND HELL IS LIKE BELIEVING IN Santa Claus,!!!
@@knowledgesomemore3564 you're the only idiot who's saying santa Claus is real.. 😂 But I'll tell you, heaven and hell is real. Ofcourse you won't believe it until you see it with your own eyes.. Same as those people who didn't believe in the time of christ.
Bro I don't think she was comforted at all, I mean who would've been? I mean is obvious that we weren't there n I feel what U saying but I sleays wonder about that monent to but sadly in a different way like I think of that moment when everything started going south she that i kno look at him as a superhero looking at him worried n she thinking or looking at him w fix it daddy as U alwayz fo written all over her face but I really hope its as U say
Knowledge Somemore , I haven’t believed in Santa since I was 25 so....
@@tekatoanimeyt3206 crazy that we still have people in this day and age still believing in Bronze Age fairy tales LOL grow up dude
His footwork, coordination, speed, shooting ability, agility, decision making is on another level. The other nba players had nice games as well but Kobe clearly was on a different stratosphere than the other nba players.
!!!!!
Rip
Kobe was the ONLY man I ever saw get his rings kissed by Lebron James. Back before he got all full of himself, Lebron said Kobe was the best player on the planet. He admitted he was chasing Kobe from (2003-2016), then he got a huge ego and started saying he was the greatest. But It tells you how obviously great Kobe was, that even Lebron was kissing his ring.
@@craigwheeler4760 😂😂😂 got a huge ego becuz he thinks he’s the best??? He reached that top 5 level and I think it’s safe to say he is allowed to think he’s better than Kobe and if he’s being compared to mj then there must be a reason, mj imo is a better bbal player than lebron but if he’s getting compared to someone I Might as well choose myself if i was him too
@@craigwheeler4760 so essentially if lebron thinks he’s better than Kobe he has a big ego? And if Kobe thinks he’s better than lebron he just has that mentality of being the best🤡???? How about both of them have big egos and both have a mentality
its one thing to cheer 4 someone when he passed away.. people showed him love when he was alive. chanting:kobe kobe kobe.... he knew he was loved by some so many.. and he was able to enjoy it and to recognize it.. king of la
What a Legend...RIP, Black Mamba.
I grew up a MJ fan, and Kobe is the closest thing I ever saw to Jordan on the court. However, OFF THE COURT, this is where it hurts me to see him leave. His mentality OFF THE COURT was top notch. His accolades on the court were just the tip of the iceberg. He would have been an amazing teacher. Six months before his transition, I was just roaming KZhead, watching motivational videos and stumbled on Kobe's motivational videos. They were super thought provoking to the point that I had to pause the video to process the information for a bit. He was special, and his transition hit me like I knew him or something. The only other person that hit me like that was Michael Jackson. Rest in Power Legend.
Bro what you said is Legendary and true if I ever talk or see you again I put you have my upmost respect ✊
Wow..... you took the words out of my heart....... RIP Kobe...Michael Jackson
What y'all said + Prince. The Satanic WishJews(Mossad) killed all of those great Black men and MANY more. When y'all finally understand the truth of what I say years from now, I want you to remember that I told you. www.conspirazzi.com/e-books/hitchcock-synagogue-satan.pdf
The world literally started to fall apart after he died...
24th like!
So right.. I had a friend who died a day after Kobe he ment a lot to a lot of people just like Kobe does..When it happen I said damn Kobe and Sheldon died the a day apart God taking real soldiers something about to go down and you are so right the world has been crazy sort of out of wack ever since.
Big factz💯💯💯

@@bennyconnerjr4621 yes:(
Thank you for posting this vid. I never seen this footage before. I miss watching him play. Love how the crowd chanted. Kobe! Kobe! Kobe!

Those people will past this moment on forever😥 and I still can't believe that I'm typing R.I.P KB
Same here, it's crazy!!
believe it
You thought he was gonna live forever?
He means it’s too fast to say that word bro
i think this is the first time i see Kobe passing and Harden playing defense. Jokes aside, man i miss Kobe
hahaha
Lmao
i feel you but you can't win chips being selfish and that's a fact. also average 5 assists for his career ...
Yet Kobe has the most assist in NBA History at his position (SG)... Boy bye 🥱
• Kobe # of assists made: *6,306* • average per game: *4.7* • NBA all time ranking in assists: *30* • Clearly if you rank 30th on the all-time list you are better than average. Look at the top 30 and what you see is the following 28 were point guards 1 small forward (can you guess who?) 1 combo shooting/point guard *Kobe* was the only *pure Shooting Guard*
Watching Kobe v. Harden was such a foreshadowing for where the league was about to go.
Mannnnnllll this was just as memorable as a NBA game …….. Rest in peace Kobe! Thanks for all the NBA memories…….
Nowitzki fade away aaall night. I love how kobe interacted with everyone
@John Shaft Dirk being 7 feet tall helped a lot with making the fadeaway unblockable.
John Shaft Luka has a great fade away in his game. He’s a complete player
Nowitzki? Smh that’s the Goats only fade away... Exclusive to MJ & KB
smile cute Oscar couldn’t do a single athletic thing that MJ could. You’re reaching kid. DrJ of course. The fade away was a move that the Dream(Hakeem) Patented and Kobe was the first player to go to him for lessons on how to perfect his post footwork. Then LBJ, Howard, MELO and a host of others sought the Dream for lessons.
@smile cute real Talk.
The finish! OMG! Possibly one of the greatest moments ever captured on film! You knew Kobe was gonna make that shot as soon as the camera cut to the scoreboard.... see you up in the Clouds, Mamba, can’t wait to get schooled by you on the court up there ✌🏻
wtf

Greatest moment captures on film? Lul
The ending to that comment was wild as hell lmaoo
This is awesome to watch. Seeing Kobe playing for the love of the game. All those people getting to witness Kobe playing up close. We all miss him... but it's so wonderful to have small moments like this to watch, and remember how amazing he was, and how much he inspired us all. Thank you for posting and sharing this with all of us. I appreciate you & Kobe for the smiles you're giving me as I watch this today. ❤🙏
Kobe was too good at basketball goat status 🐐 gone but never ever forgotten
Dam it seem like Kobe was hitting on the buzzer shots his whole life
Not only buzzer that shit was the game winner 👀
I'm pretty sure "obligated to hit game winning shots" was in his contract.
THE MAN WHO INSPIRED ME TO PLAY BASKETBALL AND TAUGHT ME NOT TO BE SOFT WHEN LIFE THROWS LEMONS
I just hope covid19 happened early. So kobe would just stay home.

Thanks for the upload. Salute. Kobe was my dude. Just something special about him. He truly loved the game and everything that came with it. He was for the people. When the fans rushed the court, that was on some Ali shit. Not many of his status would have played in this game. He had 5 rings legend future hall of famer. His competitiveness was always there and i know going against the young harden and derozen he had to let them know he could still ball. But it was even bigger than that. The way he talked and shook hands during the game was incredible. None of the other players did that. Just like when he played at the rucker. He was always accessible unlike some other players no need to mention names lol RIP to the MAMBA the LEGEND and arguably the greatest basketball player to ever step on the court whether the NBA or the hood court down the street. His dedication to the game and determination to WIN was crazy. So many stories about his work ethic and go hard mentality just proves how great he was.
These were the fans he played through injuries for. The ones who saved up their hard earned money. The ones who had to stop what they were doing during the day to watch him on TV. These were the people ❤
I love how Kobe showed the same love to everybody in the court and the same competition.
Everybody in that gym(including james harden) knew that shot was going in.
That last shot and smile brought tears to my face💯
Brilliance on the court! RIP Mamba!!!
I love how he played his teammate with a quick 1on1 during warmups.
He gave out his shoes at the end of the game 😭 RIP KOBE 😭
how mich they worth now?
Forever greatness RIP Black Mamba
Never thought I'd be alive without Kobe Bryant still here doing his thing sad he's not around anymore what a legendary human being
Legend!! Just legendary. Took on DeRozan and Harden.. And ends it with his arms raised. Rest Easy Kobe
I still can’t believe Kobe is gone. I can feel the anxiety attacking again.
Miss this man and everything he brought to world, he is so much more than the game. Rip Mamba
This was just beautiful basketball.
