Kobe sharing some wisdom and talking about his new documentary.. the comparison with Russell Westbrook.. his relationship with Shaq and Phil..the Evolution of the Game.. and retirement
Kobe is so peaceful. I think he realized that life is about self-actualization and enlightenment.
Rip kobe
is it not about raising up other people also ? Also "self-actualization" is a bit of weird word since you need others to do that.
Q¹
Seeing him enjoying the trophy with his father put a smile on my face.
This was his greatest interview of all time to me RIP
There's a couple better. One is Patrick bet David
i really like his Knuckleheads interview the best
1:44 I miss Kobe, I lived in San Antonio Texas where you could not be a Kobe Bryant fan it wasn't safe for you to be one damn I miss Kobe
"I'm not gonna retire next year" "announces retirement at the start of next year"
RIP Kobe Bryant.
Kobe is a very well spoken individual. A lot of players today merely give politically correct answers such as "we gotta continue to get better...tonight wasn't about me, it was about my teammates, it was a group effort..." However, with Kobe you can sense that he's doing the questions justice and really giving his true insights and not merely regurgitating what he was told in handling the media. Moreover, his knowledge of other topics such as Beethoven's Ninth Symphony and him being deaf yet overcoming this setback is impressive. Kobe's IQ (not just basketball IQ), is such that if I didn't know any better, I would have thought he had graduated from college with honors. Other greats to share this unusually high intelligence include Magic, Jordan and Dr. J -- the latter whom I really developed a greater affection for after following his documentary which explored his upbringing and also losing his son.
Nano2690 yes I agree with you
Agreed! The true development of a man!
There is something you will never get from Queen James.
ROTC: A right on time conscience
Great comment. Magic has a mega personality and Dr. J has this educated way about him, but Magic doesn't offer the deepest of insights (#MagicJohnsonTweets) and Dr. J kinda never translated his charisma as a commentator (for some reason, as pointed out in the book of basketball). As for MJ, I just disagree, I won't put him in the same group. Intellectually, Kobe trumps them all.
Greatest Laker Ever !! RIP 💔
Magic. Hands down
Rest In Peace Kobe Bryant
What a great peace. I love Bill and grew up with Kobe showing me everything I love about basketball. Miss you every day bean. Probably gonna miss Gigi even more, I feel like she would have introduced a whole knew fan base to the WNBA
this was a great show... too bad espn killed it.
Yeah, I loved watching them making predictions for the upcoming season. Sucks that they not only cancelled it, but also deleted every video on their channel.
Yeah, A nice, calm and in depth conversation about the game and the future of it..
Guga yep it sucks man these were fun times
Underpantsniper Yes not some STEVEN A. SMITH TRYING to cuss someone out in an argument...
Kobe dropping knowledge
i miss you Kobe Rest In Peace..🙏🏾
Who’s watching this in 2023? 💜💛
Rip Kobe the 🐐
Probably the most eloquent NBA player ever behind kareem
20:53 kobes talk on half court shots is such a good life mantra
man jalen rose's outfit is really all over the place
ProducedByFieri Not really; dude bought it all in a single Goodwill. 👀💀💀💀
RIP Mamba 🙌🏽
thanks for the upload
Love Kobe's Game Tru Savage, Lov the Show, Jalen & jacoby Dope as well.
Appreciate the upload.
Greatest n realest player in the game
It really bothers me that Bill Simmons never moves in his chair. He never un-crosses his legs.
Great interview thanks for uploading this Kobe hall of famer great career 5 CHIPs!!!!! As jalen put it lol
I agree with Kobe OKC messed up when they got rid of Harden.
Now they got Victor Oladipo!
+jazzsoul60 Now they don't have Durant, lol
They thought Ibaka would have had a higher upside than harden so they payed him instead lol
RW, Durant and Harden could've won multiple rings together but....ego man. Just like Kobe.
Not necessarily. That super team concept doesn't always work out. Chemistry is most important.
Great interview. Someone needs to let Jalen know to unbutton the blazer when you sit down lol
This was pretty cool
I feel like out of all the great players, Kobe would make the best coach. He had to evolve and change his game and come off the bench and deal with injury and media scrutiny. Just his simple explanation of not changing Russell but letting him be himself was nice.
omieg89 whatchu mean. who you think coached that team after phil?
Hes talking bat as a rookie off the bench
Kobe said that he didn't want to coach. RIP
He coached his girls team to a comeback that completely dominated the other team
looking back Shaq and Kobe compared with Russ and KD is alot more alike than originally thought. now that we know they didn't really like each other, and had the same type of issues, although to a lesser degree.
kobe definitly a smart man
Kobe was soooo right when he said if there was one thing he would of love to have back in the day was illegal defense. If Kobe played under those rules like Jordan, I believe he would of easily been the best player of all time. These zone d's take away stars and promote to much damn shooting.
Nah. He's too inefficient and chucks a lot. Not as athletic and as smart as MJ.
GOAT!!
Wow. This ripped version has 250k views. An iconic convo
Because it kobe...players and fans love kobe but the media hate him but they try to switch it cuz he died
Kobe in Chicago would have been interesting... he would have gotten to play in the weak eastern conference.
Hahah, he retired the season after and had a farewell tour.
Everyone else seems to have missed this lol
Eric Legend he loved to surprise us
Eric Legend that last game made it all worth it tho
Smh rip mamba
GOAT #MambaMentality
RIP Kobe 😔
The G.O.A.T
I fuck with Jacoby, really I do. I just think Bill brought more to the table as far as his charisma and overall knowledge and experience. Jacoby just kinda feeds off Jalen and defers to him too much. I can't see this discussion being as interesting with Jacoby in Bill's place
- Aaron Taylor, 2017 I was behind a chick in the line at the grocery store who said on her phone "I fucks wit Jesus." and another girl goes "You're goin' to hell,"👀😂
Kobe didn't want the farewell tour but it just turned out to be.
A shot that ive taken thousands and thousands of times
Rip grantland. This was a great show that offered a different lens for nba talk. Bill and jr brought out the real Kobe. Not bullshit nike commercial Kobe
He's always had A High IQ. Mutiple Language's Smart kid Except in Colorado that time but the GOAT None the less.
I really want Kobe to play one season in Italy!!!
yuubokumin415 $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$€€€€€€€€€€
I’ll always find it hilarious that Kobe is getting interviewed by a lifetime Celtics fan and Jalen Rose, who he gave 81 😂
When does he talk about muse?
I wouldn't usually sit thru Kobe interviews, but... it is a basketball year or 2 of sorts. I'll feed the hype machine a lil'. Post and what-not.. Troll if I have to...
larry and magic got hella cake god damn
I miss these days. The three should still do vids on the low or Bill should bring Jalen and Jacoby to HBO. Bring back clairvoyant Bill!
that channel was great, with some of my favorite interviews of all time....
well he's getting a farewell tour
Sniper on the floor when he was running down the court in Boston 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
38:45 old style is good
Didnt watch the whole vid. But did he mention kawhi leonard?
Julian Sol Not Kawhi but the Spurs at 36:20
what was with his arm here? i thot it was only his achilles that got injured
dam poor jalen haha has to interview the guy that dropped 81 on him
I bet when they refer to Kobe as a top 10 player all time....a part of him dies. He always wanted to be the greatest player of all time.
I think Kobe is the greatest highlight reel of all time
Nowhere close. Look at Carter, Wilkins,...just go to "Michael Jordan Fury" and Kobe will become a distant memory for you.
He is in a lot of people's minds
11:23 I keep telling people that Westbrook isn't a true point guard he's really a shooting guard because his motivation is to score the same with Allen Iverson.
Bill talked so much shit to Kobe in his book lol
..still #KB24EVER
19:45 - Kobe says he wouldn't do a farewell tour and that he would feel weird doing it. One year later, he's so bad that he wants a farewell tour.
he needed it, the organization tarnished his potential of being an all time great, although he is. They lacked in ownership, management, and coaching. They surrounded him with the wrong people after his last championship, that people unappreciated how much he sacrificed for this organization. A farewell tour was the least they could've done for him.
he did a farewell tour to help out the lakers, it took the spotlight off of the management and the rest of the team
2012-13 Kobe had a legitimate chance at #6 ring but that Achilles bro
L K no lol he did it for himself. Don't try to spin it like he's a great guy.
menehune1025 who cares?
But Kobe had also ever ask for the trade
P jax definitely rubbed off on Kobe. Zen master
kobe to CHICAGO?!?! my god
If the Bulls were willing to give up Luel Deng it would've happened.
Jalen head was swollen back then😂
Didn't Kobe ask to leave the Lakers after 2007 season ? Yes he did..
WOWOWOWOWOWOOWWOWOWO he asked to leave but not to a championship team and he asked to leave because the Lakers organization was acting like they didn't want to win or go anywhere
Haha Kobe talks like MJ. For real
it fuck up when they couldn't keep James harden but Miami get LeBron James an Chris bosh then when he went back to cavs it's him an Kevin love an Kyrie
04 19 22
Bill always hated Kobe.
2008 hurt 😤
God took him too soon from us 😢😢😢😢
07 24 23 2nd viewing.
Jalen and no Ja-Kobe
Why did kobe want to get traded to chicago?
jeppep95 he didn't like playing with Shaq
Michael Eyob no he wanted the trade in 06 when shaqwas gone but did he want to go to chicago, they were not a contender
Yeah you're right I forgot he didn't like how shitty they were without Shaq
jeppep95 to really put Chicago back on top
jeppep95 The Lakers were trash and the front office was horrible so he threatened to leave for Chicago.
Kobe>Lebron
Kobe never asked for a farewell tour. He stated multiple times he didn't want one. But the Lakers being so bad they needed that spotlight.
No, when you have arguably the most skilled player of all time and second only behind MJ as far as guard top 5 all time and even on a haters list in the top 10 all time then the farewell tour is organic , respect , not manufactured.
See how Kobe has a hurt shoulder and is wearing a sling.
1 or 2 hate, but millions said farewell. ahahahahahaa
Kobe didnt know how his Lakers overcame the Sacramento Kings back in 02? I think a ref got paid. Ridiculous foul calls against the kings it went funny.
12:08 That moment when BS predicts the future...
Come 6 yrs later and Westbrick is now in the Lakers playing horribly
kobeef is disgusted by Jalen because Rose pissed that BEEF briant by Jalen Rosing him alp the time
lol 81
All u LBJ fans listen @22:40 this is why most will never be great as Kobe or even possess half of the heart he does
bring bill simmons back. not to espn then. get him on inside the nba in place of ernie johnson or in addition to all of them
waiting for ur stars now to score more than 81.. even on a really bad team...Russel Westbrook can since he has no team doing anything. sorry not going to happen. ahaHHUAUzHHzhzjzhhz
@23:22 Kobe was drafted by the Charlotte Hornets
Kobe was technically drafted by the Lakers. Do your homework.
Nah
Lebron (King) James! Led every major stat in the 2016 NBA finals. Did Kobe?
Adam silver & kyrie won the title though lebron just helped a little bit & kobe was finishing hes career after winning 5 titles and just losing 2 finals series
Kyrie was the clutch guy. they played almost equally as well. like kobe n Shaq
both teams went scoreless from like the 5 minute mark in the 4th, it was Kyrie who made THE shot that won the game. then Lebron acted like he hurt his wrist so it wouldnt look as bad when he missed a free throw.
LeBron Left To go with a already powerful team. Did Kobe??
jazzsoul60 LBJ plays in a weak conference... did kobe
Kobe wanna be punchin Jalen Rose.
It's a sad sad sad world when even Bill Simmons and Jalen Rose don't have the guts to talk about how fucking rigged the series vs. Sacramento was.
They wanted to glamorize him not criticize because they knew the end was near.
neosapiens right lol
big kobe fan here. but i wish they did say something about that. lol
Nothing was rigged you crybabies don't talk about game 6 if you don't want to talk about game 5 where the Kings got the iffy calls. Btw before you start the same old tall tales Donaghy didn't work that series at all...
I hate Kobe but I'd love to talk basketball with him
Kobe crosses his legs like a female, must have a small package
The fuck are yall yalkin abt!?
His legs were crossed so he could have support for his injured arm .. Smh
I think Kobe made a mistake the Mamba got bitten by another Mamba. I feel bad fornhis daughter he brings her to the games. Sometimes its good to teach our kids but some people look at it internally who is she? Just because he is famous so we shake her hand? Kobe did his job with his daughter but some people like LeBron had an evil eye on his daughter. I believe Lebron killed Kobe
