Last season, a dream team lineup turned into a nightmare for the Los Angeles Lakers. No moment was worse than a career threatening injury to the face of its franchise over the last 17 years, Kobe Bryant. With less than a month remaining until the start of this season, many wonder when the Black Mamba will return from his torn achilles and if he will ever be the same player again. Only time will tell, but if there's one man who can do it, it's Kobe Bryant. Love him or hate him, everyone is waiting to see how the last chapter of his storied career will unfold.

In honor of my favorite player of all time, this mix commemorates Kobe Bryant's entire career from beginning to now, chronicling the ups and downs for one of the greatest to ever play the game.

That moment when you realize Kobe's played in 7 finals, ridiculous. Over a 3rd of his career he's made it to the end and won 5 of them.
They finally put this back up
Kobe is a TOP 5 GOAT whether you like it or not
NBA won't be the same once he retires. That will to win, work ethic and mental toughness is something that unmatched in today's league
. dont forget curry either
I think Kobe wants to go out as the greatest player to ever play this game.
He will be 2nd and no more, no less. Michael, Kobe, Lebron
DrSaint
wrong
DrSaint lebron? rlly?
DrSaint I agree, thats what I always tell people and they just bitch at me
Brandon Rosenblatt I think he wants to but I think he'll be second. I love Kobe but MJ is GOAT.
The NBA will never be the same without KOBE BRYANT. #8/24 will forever be a LEGEND who will NEVER die.
People get amnesia really fast when it comes to Kobe. They forget this stuff. Forget that he was almost unstoppable in his prime. He destroyed the league. For the most part it was like that last season before his achilles tear. He may never surpass Jordan, but one thing is already a fact. Kobe Bryant is one of the greatest players ever seen on an NBA floor.
Michael Jordan has been passed. By Kobe. For years now.
Out of respect I say they may be equal.
THANK YOOUUUUU
Chris Waite Thank You. Thats honestly what i believe aswell. Normally people would be like "Michael Jordan and Kobe...its not even close!"
Kobe is by far the Greatest Scorer to play in the NBA!
Nah brah
hmmmm NO , nice try though.
also most missed shots
You're forgetting
Wilt Chamberlain
Carmelo Anthony
LeBron James
iiMarshmalow RBLX You forgot the splash brothers Stephen Curry and Klay Thompsom
Have you seen the "Gladiator"? Kobe is just like Russell Crowe in the film. No one will fight like him. He's got everything: skills, power, I.Q, agility, the all around game. When he finally leaves us, we will miss his competitiveness that is like no other.
scoring paper into a trashcan will forever be a #KOBE
im not a hater but i realized this, most of lebron's fans are kids or teenagers who never saw mj and only saw the fall of kobe's career (after achilles injury). the teenagers are the ones who started watching basketball when lebron started but didn't see mj at all or the greatest parts of kobe's career. the kids are most of the bandwagon fans lebron has.
Sean KooI've watched all 3... I have respect for Lebron's game, even though he had a couple questionable occurrences in the playoffs, including the Finals his first year with Miami and when the C's took them out. But he always has the team's best interest in heart at all times. No one on Earth can say the same thing about Kobe. I give Kobe props for working his ass off, but other than that he is everything wrong with what a superstar can be in team sports.
I'm probably the only teen lol that's why people bully me for liking Kobe over Lebanon but they can kiss my ass lol
Sean Koo You are right, im 22 years old and was a kid when MJ played so i didnt watch him but i followed Kobes career and even tho i respect Lebron i feel free to say that Kobe was something else.
What an ignorant thing to say.
Im a teenager and I know connie hawkins, pete maravich, julius erving, wilt, russell, elgin baylor and many, I know how hard it is to score back then when someone is grabbing while driving to the rim and that is why legends will always be better than players today, now you put a damn finger your foul! . For me, michael jordan is still young hahaha!
Taken from us too soon. Legends never die.
this video defines everything.... Come on Kobe Bryant I believe just one more title to tie MJ.
Papawowmac Some haters....
Papawowmac
hahahahahahahahahhaahha when did u born?? 2011?? jason kidd ?? r u relate to him? that guy has only 1ring not even a mvp finals and had to share hes mvp season, so r u crazy? hahahahha dude go watch the 3peat, check the stats, watch kobe, and tell again that lie that the lakers would have won w/o kobe, gasol the main reason why they won in the2010??? TOO MUCH 2K IN UR MIND ITS ALL ABOUT THE RINGS, u guys spend more time hating kobe/lakers that spending time celebrating ur teams championships
I grew up watching Kobe Bryant and the Lakers, I remember sitting in my living room all those years watching Kobe and Shaq do work. I'm going to be sad they day when one of the all time greatest leaves the floor behind
Kobe Bryant will forever be the best player ever in my eyes I grew up watching kobe he got me hooked on basketball ball
The reason why i started to love basketball is kobe bryant! You have to respect a player who inspired an entire generation.. The game will never be the same when he retires
This brought a smile to my face and tears to my eyes...if anyone can overcome all of this, it's KOBE FUCKING BRYANT!
- _ -
Me too !!!!!
Goosebumps. His hardwork , heart and his passion to the game
RIP you will be missed
Brings tears to my eyes... I'll never forget my ultimate inspiration Kobe Bryant
Only One Word Can Describe Him: Legend.
People are hating now but I guarantee once he retires the haters will miss kobe
The Strongest Will I've Ever Witness in Sports
Respect this man even if you hate him.
CHILLS......
Been watching Bryant since his rookie year. He turned me on to Lakers basketball and I will forever stand behind him bring the best of my generation. Come back strong for #6!
well 43 people hate kobe enough to dislike the video. but idk how you cant respect what kobe did while he was hurt. you cant question his heart and his will to play. hes the toughest player the nba has ever seen
Kobe is a fraud and a faker... After faking all those injuries, he finally got injured for real... Maybe he will finally stop faking the flu as well
I've been watching Bryant play since i was a child. There should be a moment of silence in the NBA when he retires. In his prime, Kobe was one of the most clutch players to ever play.
This guy right here If I represent basketball fans everywhere, across the globe, I like to thanks to one of the greatest, most passionate basketball player I have ever seen. It take true courage and desire to play the game at the highest level. No matter if you hate him or not, You must respect him as a champion, as a winner , and as a person. Truly remarkable that a guy at this point to still be relevant till this day. Hall of Fame material Kobe For Sho. #RealTalk
Kobe Bryant changed the game of basketball. He makes history every year, doing the undoable. He never ceases to amaze us and always proves the haters wrong. My prayers are with him to end a career with a 6th. For how much he loves the game, even god knows he deserves it.
This is so sad Kobe's had the best career in all of NBA he is one of the greatest ever nobody in the entire league right now has more determination and wants to win as much as Kobe and to see him have a injury taking down his level of ability to play is sad Kobe is one of the greatest
Coming back and watching this hurts even more now that he’s gone 😢 #MambaForever2/24
Amazing Work.
goosebumps, i grew up watching kobe just dominate the NBA, it was an honor to grow up by watching one of the greatest
Kobe is the best player in the world
Donald Donaghy maybe has talking about CURRENTLY the best in the world (which would exclude Jordan), but yea, even that is not true. Kobes time is over and Lebron is the MVP of the NBA.
Ryan Nelson Kobe never had a time.
Hero Miles Its a fact that he was probably the best player in the NBA for a good half decade or even full decade. He is going to overtake Jordan in points this year. Yes, he HAD a time, jack ass
lebron cheats his way through the games, traveling, carries, 3 second, and pushing players off which is illegal in basketball. lebron would foul out every game in the 2nd quartr if he didnt pay the refs
Hero Miles kobe never had a time? what are you 8?
Started watching him when I was 6 years old. I never understood how amazing he really was. It was 2004 and he was my favorite basketball players. I wish I could have seen him from the beginning, same with MJ.
Kobe reminds me so much of 2Pac lol
yeah
Yooooooooo!!! I thought I was the only one!!!!
absolutely Kobe is the very best ever.
respect from Indonesia.
Even though I'm a bit of a Lebron fan, this is what I admire about Kobe, He's too stubborn to give up. He has that fighting mentality and the will to win that pushes him to keep on going. Even if he were to lose a foot, he will still keep on player.
To all the soft NBA players that cry over a broken finger or a sore ankle or some other insignificant injury, Kobe will tell you he played through that shit. Kobe Bryant is truly the last of the OGs.
Kobe was never injured till now... If you noticed he always got a "injury": right before the playoffs started... It was becuz he was gonna use it as excuse for when he plays bad which happens all the time
Kobe in his prime could not be stopped. Dunks, midrange, 3 point, all money.
Kobe bean black mamba Bryant, I've never seen a player in any sport , want to win as bad as Kobe, he never gives up , even if he was 20 points down in 4 the quarter with 5 mins left, he d still have that drive , most players give up, not Kobe, everyone should appropriate moves work ethic , will to win, cause u won't see it for a long time , Michael had a little what Kobe had , but Michael was interested in other sports to, moves not afraid to take the shot and thats what makes a great player, people say he is a ass to teammates , but he just wants them to have the same work ethic he has, but like I said no one is Kobe Bryant, he might not win 6 champion ships or have the highest fg percentage, or MVPs and stuff, but what he has is better, the will , to keep going, to never give up, to prove to the world that a 36 year old man can still be one of the best, to take the last shot , and not caring what people think, that's why he is the greatest to ever play the game, and u should enjoy him while u can , cause you'll never see it again
1/14 last night ..Never shot 50% for a season..
He had the flu plus the mans been in league 19 seasons, well maybe didn't get 50 percent fg, but has won 5 championships there's a reason why, clutch
Brian Bentham Yeah 5 championships..How many Finals mvp's ?
Shooting 45% is still efficient for a shooting guard
Woah! Awesome, I can't imagine NBA w/out KOBE! His the face of this Era. MJ and Kobe they're the best warriors!
awesome video!
TNT or ESPN should hire you to do video work. Bravo!
James H Would love to. I do work with Fox Sports. Hopefully they'll get rights to national NBA games in the future! Thanks for watching!
Kobe Bryant is the definition of clutch.

3. Wilt Chamberlain
4. Kareem Abdul Jabbar
5. Oscar Robertson
6. Larry Bird
7. Magic Johnson
8. Shaquille O'Neal
9. Dr J

ten players isnt enough if you ask me
Charles barkley should be on that list
i dont think magic johnson shouldnt
i dont think tim duncan should
karl malone should be
larry bird is a little overrated he shouldnt be top 3
So .Awesome WTF READ ALL Time bro. Lebron just started
Kobe will always be my favourite player
kobe=2nd best player of all time behind michael jordan
Yes.
I agree
yeah the best sf
***** Jordan > Kobe, and it's not even close.
fuckyouall he is greater but not by very far
How is Kobe the 2nd best of all time If he isn't even the best laker
Kareem
Magic and
Shaq are better than him.
Oh and Lebron is way better than Kobe
Kobe for life, he puts his life into basketball, his heart, and his soul. Cant wait for him to come back!
Kevin durant and upcoming legend
Lebron james the greatest in the game "today"
Kobe bryant the greatest player of his "era"
Micheal Jordan "GOAT" by far
i'm seriously sick when people hate kobe. all they care is only stat. see him play!! you will feel his passion to win the game.stat is only number. legend is permanent!!
Kobe May as well be the last chapter of nba
Wow the goosebumps don't stop. Great mix that truly does justice for one of the all time greats.
***** You the man!!! Love this video.....
Appreciate it! Thanks!
Greatest player I've ever seen play the game of basketball. Also the toughest player I've ever seen play. My favorite player ever. Salute to Kobe Bean Bryant.
Comparing Kobe to Lebron is like Tom Brady to Russell Wilson, needs to accomplish more
That moment when Kobe was shooting the two free throws really made me cry...but that would not be the last chapter for Kobe, i swear... absolutely.....
Kobe Bryant is in a basketball world of his own away from LeBron MJ Bird Magic etc. all of the players I just listed all mastered the dynamics of basketball they used that to lead them to greatness and championships... with kobe although he does eat and breathe basketball, he displays it differently, kind of what every kid dreams of doing, like taking an impossible three pointer with a defender draped all over you with 2 seconds left to win a game.. shots that we literally pretend to or dream of making. the shots that a coach will yell at you for taking, but everyone wants to take, kobe is the player that fuels that passion in kids because he is the one who brings that to the table every game he plays, along with the ability to completely take over a game although in which MJ could also do any given day.
Kobe is one of my mentors, ive looked up to him all of my basketball career
5 > 2
Kobe is the best basketball player to ever step on this planet. The things he can do that jordan and lebron cant is amazing.
alot of people are going to get on my case about this, but perhaps physically kobe is edged by lebron. But kobe is better than Lebron, his work ethic, his focus, his need to take the team on his shoulders. The guy carried the Lakers so many times, with the game on the line he single handedly won games with buzzer beater after buzzer beater. Im not saying Kobe didnt get help, but my point is the difference between Kobe and Lebron is that one is willing to shoulder the team and play through anything, the tenacity to win, the leader that he is, Kobe has just personified determination over time..... and now even at the end of his career, when he has nothing more to prove, he injured his achilles, a injury which should end his career and he wants to come back? i dont think there are words that can describe that determination
THIS IS GREAT. IT RECALL THE MEMORY OF MORE THAN A DECADE WITH KOBE. LEGEND WILL BE BACK, LEGEND IS LEGEND.
1:30
That's the face of a man who gave it his all.
I have faith in him he's going to come back better than ever and he's going to show prove every hater wrong OUR LEGEND Kobe Bryant
NBA without KB24 is boring for me. Do you feel the excitement when Kobe's on the court? It's showtime. More clutches, impossible fade away shots, cross-overs with art, footwork moves etc. It became a motivation for all of us you know what I mean,
Never, EVER forget!!!! definitely 1 of the GREATEST to EVER play the GAME!!! Can't deny it!!
1. Jordan
2. Kobe
3. ... debatable
I'm gonna tear up the day this man retires, as I know I'm not gonna be the only one. NBA fans don't know how lucky they were to watch a true legend play. We'll all know once he's gone. #Mamba
Fuck it, I'll say it. Kobe is better than Jordan.
no Jordan is first and Kobe is second lebron is a cry baby
saleha khan Jordan, Kareem, Wilt, Russell. This is the Mount Rushmore of NBA greats. Kobe at best is 15th on this list. At worse, he's top 81 all-time.
saleha khan hmmm nice try kid, but NO.
saleha khan Kobe said Jordan is the greatest:
www.kobe-bryant-pictures.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/06/Kobe-Bryant-Wearing-A-Michael-Jordan-Jersey.jpg
saleha khan M.J. was being humble kiddo, that doesnt mean he think kobe is better than him.
when it comes down to the #1 S.G.
Michael will be on Top period
Those 2 last free throws were one of the best clutch baskets by anyone of all time. He made 2 free throws with a ripped achilles. Lakers ended up winning that game. I will never forget that game.
Kobe demolished the Warriors!
And they demolished someone you really know
You do realize Stephen Curry had like 40+ points that game and that the Warriors only lost because of bad calls at the end of the game.
CJ Johnson You do realize it was the regular season and the 40+ points was faded into the shadows because of an injury. Just goes to show how much more we care about Kobe.
can't wait for Kobe to return. if anybody can return from a torn Achilles at the age of 35 and be as dominant as he's ever been is him. - a Celtics fan
Who's name do you yell when you throw something in the garbage basket?
" K O B E !!!!!!!!!!"
I got chills watching this.
The Black Mamba Rises
How can lebron be better than this?
I know right
Haha anyone that says that Lebron is better obviously hasn't been watching Kobe play for very long!
Kobe is the next MJ! NOT Leboo Leboo!
LeBron has always had everything going for him (In the NBA I mean). No injuries and no bad coaches. Kobe on the other hand has gone through many adversities. Injuries, Fights, Bad Coaches, Dwight Howard and so on. Stat wise LeBroom has had a better career. But when it comes to making the big plays, stepping up where his team needs him the most, no one can come near Kobe. MJ did it in his day. Kobe did it the previous decade. He is EASILY the best player of the last decade.
kobe was the best of the 2000s, but jordan was best in 1900s
That was ...... BEAUTIFUL!!!!
I really think kobe is better than Jordan.
I really think you must be 10 years old...
how old are you kid ? like 14?
*****
You didnt hear? The NBA was "weak" in the 90s, even though they were like 5 back then.
I am not ashamed to say I shall shed a man tear when this man retires
If Kobe started his career, he probably would've had 6 rings. He was screwed over. it would take him at least 76 games fewer to reach 30,000 points
Look at LeBron. He started on a shitty team. Thats how he was in the starting line up. I think Kobe Bryant has changed the way the NBA judges players that are coming out of high school
Michael MorenoIf Kobe would've started on a shitty team he would've only picked up 2 rings.
Im trying to say that he should've been a starter
Showing Kobe Bryant's legacy.. Amazing!!
You know the difference between time and Kobe?
Time passes.
Haha
John Andrews that was a weak joke
It also takes time to win nba titles 2000 to 2002 2009 to 2010 just like jordan did 1991 to 1993 1996 to 1998 but you just dont go to another superstars team and bring another superstar player with you to win titles to take the easy way out if lebron had stayed in cleveland and build his self from the bottom to the top with one team his whole career and win titles at the same time then people would like him alot more then now
Why will he pass if his teammates cant make big shots! Oh and By The Way he has 5000+ assists!
This almost made me cry
The way I see it, Shaq lead THREE teams to championship titles. Kobe only led TWO.
kobe will go in the NBA as the greatest. not because of numbers, but for the story he's leaving. always challenging himself. in a sense he represent all of us. always rise up to struggle and give all you have. that's whats its all about.
Kobe Bryant will always be better than Michael Jordan anoy 24 is bigger than 23
This is why we hate Kobetards.
Jimmy6700 I think he was joking
LMFAO kiddo, ahhaha
This dude was special man
Kobe > Lebron
5 > 2
that's not the only reason why kobe is better than lebron
it is sad if kobe retired!!! i wish god could give him more basketball life career. He is one of my basketball mentor.. MAN!!! cant wait to see him back to the season and get another championship and MVP will be BACK!!!!!
mj couldnt guard a 18yr old kobe imagine wat that #24 a give mj overrated ass marketing,media,endorsements,popularity ass legacy smh
Kobe is the greatest
Lebron is really over rated cuz hes the best on his team and his team is good he can barely shoot all he does is run people over cuz hes big i think d rose and kyrie are better than lebron, im not hatin on him hes good im just tired of people sayin hes better than kobe
THE weakest and most ignorant argument of all time... If his team is good and he's the best, that should make him even better. On top of that look at your statistics, not counting 2 point FG made (Layups, dunks etc) Lebron's shooting has much improved over the last couple of years. 103/254 3-pointers last season at 40.6%. And all he does is run people over? I don't even know what to say about that. You need to watch some basketball before you start analysing... Much respect for Kobe and Lebron!
Eric zee and jon s were both born in 1998 all they know is lebron... Lebron is good but saying lebron is better then kobe is fucking stupid.
Sean Bryant
Neither of us said LeBron is better than Kobe. We just argued that LeBron isn't overrated. Hell, we even gave Kobe props. Better go touch up on your reading skills, homie...LOL!!!
Sean Bryant
I hope Bryant is your real last name too. Hope you didn't just put that there cause you wish you were Kobe's husband or related to him or some freaky shit like that.
Sean Bryant ... Who said Lebron is better than Kobe? I was just defending Lebron from being called overrated which he is not. So I don't know why you would mention either of us, you're just as ignorant as kobe baller. By the way it's than* not then, don't call others stupid until you learn how to spell.
Greatest player of all time!
Kobe since i started playing basketball 19 years ago..!!for me he is the best....king kobe bryant...
Kobe Bryant will always be ONE of the best player
This reminds me of kobes greatness and what he is capable of doing
i cant wait for kobe to come back tommorow!
Next to jordan there will never be another player like kobe. I even watch all the games i have recorded with him. Wow, i am so lucky to live in this kobe era. Plus jordan era and magic era.
Kobe has the biggest heart that ever stepped on a basketball court thats why he is going to come back.
i am so happy to be a witness of his greatness.
Thank you so much for everything!!
telling you guys appreciate the greatness and respect players like kobe these ones dont come around alot with his passion and love for the game is rare
