RIP Kobe Bryant (1978-2020) #RIPKobe - Спорт
Heroes come and go, but legends never die. RIP Kobe Bryant (1978-2020) 🐐
🙏🙏💔
The goat
rip
watching highlights all day
Bleacher Report god damn I wish it wasn’t true
Don't be sad that he died. Be happy that he was born.
Aptux I love this statement!!! Thank you 🙏
Facts brrooo straight facts
Can’t....cant I be both? 😢😢😢
Naw I’m sad as fuck. It’s heart-shattering.
that sounds really stupid
The torn Achilles free throws will always amaze me, I remember watching it live thinking he wasn't that hurt because he barely showed it. I have see players with the same injury rolling on the ground screaming like their leg just got cut off 😂, Kobe winced and walked over to shoot free throws and then walks off the court. He was not only the hardest working player in NBA history but one of the toughest ever also.
A leader. A hero. A legend.
Kobe is one of those athletes you are just thankful you had a chance to watch play.
Like Messi and Ronaldo
Amen
@@jjkroon267 ronaldinho and kobe
Yup I stuck with him from the 3 airballs vs jazz in playoffs. And in the end with the 61 points vs jazz.
Especially MJ
I’m not sure how else to mourn him so I’m here
collin Scott good point brother, greatest sports loss in modern history (our lifetime at least if ur 26 like me)
same bro, we all in this together
Same brother, mamba mentality forever
same bro mamba mentality. 😭so sad that he’s gone😭is crying rn
Was mine my bros my dad and my sister's idol😢
The "GREATEST OF ALL TIME" and it is not even close. He was an assassin. I have never seen anyone who played the game harder whether he was up twenty or down twenty. His work-ethic, mentality, love for the game, and will to win were unrivaled. He motivates me to this day to be the very best that I can be. RIP Legend you are missed.
Facts I call him the GOAT because he did it without being PHYSICALLY MORE GIFTED than everybody. JUST PURE SKILL AND HEART
@@Carolinagunsmoke. Don’t forget though that even when he was with Shaq as Frobe and even during his younger years, he was still very athletic.
@@Carolinagunsmokeqq
The fact that we were here to witness Kobe's career is a blessing. I cant wait to tell my grand children about the black mamba. You've touched so many people's lives Kobe, rest in peace.
That was very well said, I'm surely going to miss him.😥😥
saying “Kobe” when shooting a paper ball in the trash can will never be the same :’(
Third String Kicker ikr😭
@@jamie6358 its sad
felt that hard
if u say kobe before shooting it, u better make it

One of the greatest ever, period... Rest in Paradise young man. 🙏
I don’t think there’s any era in sports I miss more than the Kobe era. He was a nightly highlight reel, with more heart than I’ve ever seen.

So heartbreaking
Rest in paradise to a legend
Miss you so much. you accompanied all my youth timme.
He had the most beautiful jumper
I love KB but I have to say MJ had him beat on that one. KB could make all sorts of ridiculously tough shot, but MJ just handled it with his fade-away, not as fancy as KB, but it was consistent, it was deadly, most importantly, how easily MJ made those fade-away just bust all hope defending MJ. KB's offense was probably more diverse than MJ I think.
Nah klay Thompson’s jumper is the smoothest. Jumper out there. That’s the perfect jumpshot
ngflycloud Kobe’s free throws are the best
I liked Reggie’s. It was ugly and beautiful at the same time.
Im2Jaded- Tv perfect jump shots are so wack to me idk why
Wasnt even a Kobe fan but I cried like a child 3 years ago. You can't work harder for a passion than this man did. RIP
My Boy.From ( Lower Marion High School) When I First Saw him B-Ball I Knew he would be a Legend...R.I.P. BLACK. MAMBA KING and MAY the Grace OF GOD Be With YOU !!!
You hear about his passing and go straight for his highlights.
God bless everyone here right now.
RIP THE BLACK MAMBA

to be fair, he very much wanted to be MJ and did everything he possibly could to achieve that.
F-Kobe...a known rapist and an adulterous. I don't care how good you are as a basketball player...because you failed as a man, husband and a father. Shame on you!
Bring up stats all you want, you guys will never know how much he had an impact in the game of basketball
Dude played in the most stacked conference and he got 2 rings without Shaq during that conference. Fans and the media choose stats while players choose Kobe for multiple different reasons.
carlster - stats are the objective measure. Not feelings
Dante Goodman -stats don’t show expansion era play or playing through 3 to 4 defenders for 75% of your plays.
Kobe is the only player in nba history to have *33,000 points, 7,000 rebounds, 6,000 assists, 1,800 3 pointers made, & 8,000 free throws made* 🤷♂️
@@onepiece6529
SCREAM IT LIKE YA MEAN IT!!!
I come back to this tribute every few months, and every few months, I tear up once again. I was in LA when Kobe first came, and I watched him throw up airballs in the playoffs in his first year. But then he gradually grew to become the ultimate killer, and I feel privileged to have watched his career. RIP Mamba...
Bring tears everytime I watch kobe videos rest in peace mamba

wow.
Kobe is a legend so you be crying for him legends never die Kobe Bryant and his best friend Michael Jordan was crying for him
I miss this guy! I can listen to him talk all day. He makes you want to never settle and always to put in that work to make yourself a better person, physically emotionally and mentally! RIP KB and GG ❤️🕊🙏🏾
I've been a Phoenix Suns fan for 35 years.. and here we hate LA. It's instilled into us as kids. If you're born in Arizona. You hate everything LA in the sports world. I hated Kobe, but I respected his game. How hard he worked and the kind of man he was off the court. He was a superstar basketball player and a loving husband and dad to his wife and daughters. Kobe was special. Truly, TRULY the closest we'll ever see to another Jordan. There will never be another Kobe Bryant. I was blessed to watch Kobe play for the 20 amazing seasons he played in the NBA as a Laker. He is the ONLY Laker I truly admire. I miss you Kobe. I miss seeing you preach about Mamba Mentality. Hearing you share your wisdom and life changing advice you gave to the kids and adults alike. God bless you in heaven forever Kobe. RIP. The basketball world still isn't the same without you here in it. The Lakers are up 3 games to 1 on the Warriors in the semis and you and Gigi should be sitting Courtside watching your Lakers succeed onto the Conference Finals. RIP Mamba.
I respect this man so much. I feel so bad today. Devastated really.
Still shocked that Kobe died today, Cause of a helicopter crash. One of the greatest legends. Respect to this man. His life ended to short.
I hear ya, same feeling. Appreciate your loved ones.
Saying "Kobe" after shooting a piece of paper into the trash can will feel different now 😔
Isabella Bonaparte, You have to say “For Kobe” now and then pray
For real bru 😪
Don’t stop saying it. Keep the legacy going
Bruh I just realized that
Man I’m just reminiscing on all these plays, watching them reminds me of the time I jumped off the couch in disbelief of what I had just witnessed.
KOBE WAS NOT ONLY A LEGEND IN BASKETBALL, BUT HE WAS A HERO TO MANY IN MANY WAYS. HIS OUTSTANDING SPORTSMANSHIP ON AND OFF THE COURT, HIS KIND HEART (HELPING SO MANY PEOPLE IN SO MANY WAYS, AND HIS AWESOMENESS IN BEING A SUPERB FAMILY MAN, ETC. REST IN PEACE MY HERO!
F-Kobe...a known rapist and an adulterous. I don't care how good you are as a basketball player...because you failed as a man, husband and a father. Shame on you!
I honestly can’t believe this. He is literally gone😭😭😭
This is the worst news I’ve ever heard. I hate how fragile human life is 😔
It's insane to think about. But the fact that one life is so limited and so fragile makes it so much more inspiring how f*cking much a single person can achieve. May he live on as an inspiration to all of us.
Death is just but Life's unwanted surprise man. We have to envy Kobe or Thank I guess for reminding how we need to live the life before death takes over.
Literally half the world said this mans name when taking a jumper and now he’s gone
I’m back two years later hoping this was just a bad dream. The man that gave so many of us hoop dreams. Thank you Kobe
As the countdown nears getting to the end my eyes began to tears.
He was so legendary everyone in my school would say “Kobe” when they made any type of basketball reference I’m glad kobe at least got to make his mark before he passed R.I.P legend🥺💕
Idc what player you believe is the GOAT, you have to respect and recognize this man's greatness. It's a shame that people try to downplay what he has done because they want to argue whether MJ or Lebron is better... just chill out and accept that Kobe has changed the game of basketball for the better simply with his grit and work ethic alone. His skill was always there, but it simply was never good enough for him no matter what he accomplished, and as a Spurs fan, I could never look past the blessing I've had getting to watch the Black Mamba play the game of basketball.
Thank you, Kobe.
Stewart Bowers This is exactly how I feel about the MJ and Lebron debate. People need to stop disrespecting one or the other when they argue who’s better; they both changed the game of basketball and will forever be remembered as legends, just like Kobe
I had to realize thats just how it is today with social media... everyone Is fishing for likes and saying the most ridiculous things for it. the only bad thing is its making people start to believe those ridiculous statements and grab onto those beliefs without ever actually doing research or watching how great a player like kobe was. its actually really sad that a "nobody" can make a single comment that is ignorant and make thousands of people believe something that ruins a mans legacy like kobe. but its cool cuz the real ones know.
The rape forever altered his status as the greatest. Had kobe never done that, we would probably be saying he is tied with jordan as goat.
Stewart Bowers real talk bro..idc wat anybody say,Kobe is the GOAT to me!!!
Kobe definitely one of the most disrespect legends of all time! I really don't understand why, the only thing that I can think of is his game emulated MJ so much that people have a hard time truly appreciating him because many view him as a copy of Mike
Legend never forgot
Kobe was legendary! I was blessed to see his showmanship from the beginning of his career until the end. RIP Kobe 💪🏿✊🏿
Kobe bryant had the smoothest, purest jumper the game has ever seen. Flawless form.
GateCityBull ' its beautiful.
Everything he did was flawless. He was a perfectionist.
I agree. He has the prettiest, purest jumper I’ve ever seen too.
Ever since I was a kid, I'd always try the Kobe fadeaway even though I couldn't even reach the basket.
I never understood why Kobe never shot 50-60% from the field for a season smh easily one of the most beautiful jumpshots ever!!!
*Rip Kobe , His Daughter was also in the helicopter* RIP
3000 subscribers With no video Rick foxx wasn’t there.
is Rick Fox confirmed? I found this info nowhere
Rick fox wasnt in the crash
Dont for the other 3 RIP
She was :((
Can't lie started crying at the 10min mark. He was something special to watch.
Can't help but get my eyes heavy while watchin' this. Love you Kobe. Rest in Power, Mamba.
R.I.P to “the black Mamba” Kobe Bryant.
May he his daughter and everyone else on that helicopter Rest In Peace
APEXx it wasn’t the pilots fault. It was actually the visibility the pilot couldn’t see due to the fog, causing him to crash the helicopter.
Damn that Sikorsky pilot he didn't check that indicators. I know that it is pilot error.
APEXx
I think he has been punished enough in that fact that he’s dead
@@ladysunshine171 The pilot is human. Nobody could be able to see through the fog at high altitude. It's a freak accident man. Nobody was at fault.
Amen
The greatest basketball player of all time .
Man I loved all those great years. Miss watching him so much
Can’t believe he’s gone🥺 he was my entire childhood😭😭 legends never die 💜💛
I’m still in my childhood.
And i still understand because he built my love for the game
Such a legend
😭😭😭
Mamba Mentality forever

We lost a legend but will never forget him
My all time favorite basketball player, 20 years of excitement when he stepped on the court
It’s top 50 and I watched it more than 50 times R.I.P KOBE🐐
From now on, we shouldn't say "Kobe" we should say "For Kobe" 💔🕊🕊 R.I.P. Bud ✊😔

For kobe
Earlier today, I yelled “for Kobe” and made 4 threes in a row (I suck at basketball)
who the fuck is kobe bryant
@@eoinmcdonagh8891 go away little troll
Robbed of a MVP in 2006. Greatest Laker of all time imo.
MVP is the biggest joke reward
There was so many times he should of won that
Maafa 1619 Hell nah, Kobe all the way.
Steph curry is better than kobe
Maafa 1619 Kareem has 2 finals Mvps
He played with the greatest pg ever AND James worthy top 50 all time and finals mvp
Give Kobe the same help Kareem got who'd have more rings
The announcer at 18:36 and the way he introduced Kobe, the crowd response, that sends chills
fuck, man. I remember watching this a few hours after I heard the news... I couldn't stop the tears no matter how hard I tried, and I dont usually shed tears for anything.... all those times in my driveway alone trying to get his jumpshot down just right...
Love you, Mamba.
Promise you'll never be forgotten...
Rest in peace to the hardest worker and most respectable man in NBA history. Rest easy Kobe 🙏💔
It feels so surreal man
@@oof8850 My whole life growin up when I thought basketball I thought kobe. A true legend.

heartbroken, such a humble man. one of the best ever.
Gave his life and soul to the game, gave his life and soul to Los Angeles for 20 straight seasons, man we appreciate you so much Kobe. You truly left behind a shatterproof legacy in Southern California. Forever missed.

Nobody pulls off crazier more athletic high iq plays than Kobe . 🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Ummm Steph curry is more skilled than kobe

I'd say AI is a close second forsure
Sports Venom fuuuck no
Kobe was so magnificent on and off the court hes my idol ive learned so many moves just watching him play my grandbaby loves the way kobe played baskball
I watch this often. . Will never see another play the game like him 🐐
Kobe is the most skilled player ever period
Umm no
I said "Skilled" not best obviously LeBron and MJ are ahead but Kobe is the most skilled others like Bron just have a better body
Carlos Villalvazo Puentes Kobe is way better than LeBron do t even compare
I agree. Kobe along with Kyrie are the 2 most skilled players I've ever seen.

So many beautiful memories. I still can believe he is gone… long live Kobe
I can watch this thing forever.
I always watch this compilation, im studying the game, im breaking down every tiny bit of information of the move he did. You can learn a lot of moves here. But sometimes its hard to focus when u realize that he's now gone.
Fly high legend.
Best 20 minutes you'll ever spend in your life, truly inspirational.
Marcus B'More Creative I don’t really watch basketball but I had to look this up and it’s amazing what a human with a champions mindset can do. It’s very inspirational
This hit different now hearing what happened....pain
I am so blessed to have witnessed and followed his career from his Rookie year and was able to watch his final game also! He may not know me but he inspired me in so many ways! Forever legend!
Thank you for making a kid fall in love deeply w the game of basketball & with the lakers I still remember those nights when the whole block went crazy when the lakers would win the championship especially game 7 vs the Celtics ! LONG LIVE THE LOS ANGELES LEGEND ! BLACK MAMBA FOREVER 🏁🙏🏻
Kobe is like Mozart. You can argue if somebody else in that profession was better. But when you watch him play you were mesmerized. Kobe has all kinds of talent, but he belonged on the Basketball court. His work ethic and skill set produced one of if not the best ever. I am a true fan of KOBE.
Kobe's game is so beautiful
NBA Library yeah bro, its not the ugly Lebron athletic and muscle play
Yeah man not like bro dunked over Yao Ming and blocked him in this video u just watched😂 Kobe so finesse
Been watching alot of Kobe highlights, I just noticed that most of his greatest blocks were LEFT HANDED!!
Tears all over... I was 13 tears of age when I got a pair of Kobe sneakers... Back in 2003. Love this guy. RIP, king
RIP Kobe, Gigi, John, Alyssa, Keri and the 4 other whose names havent been released yet. You were an inspiration to millions and will NEVER be forgotten. Rest in Paradise
RIP
Emotional watching this. His career is a life lesson to us all.. FAN OR NOT! #LEGENDARY
Yeah!
I hope the people of LA treasure those moments forever. Kobe gave you his blood , sweat, and tears. RIP MAMBA
This video was so well done. Thank you for making this. We were so fortunate to call Kobe ours for 20 seasons.
02:20 this one hit me. He could've left... but this man went back out and delivered with a torn achillies. We love you Kobe... r.i.p
and other time , still played having the flue!!
Isiah Thomas said about Kobe and that injury was the hardest injury he had and he himself couldn’t do what job did.
A man among men.

That's where Thompson got his inspiration. Thompson remembered that while walking through the locker room and went back.
