Kobe was still good after the injuries, if he had a decent team around him he wouldn't have shot so bad. He wasnt able to carry bad teammates anymore but he could have played a lot better with help
Would've been a solid role player off the bench. Wasn't able to be the focal point and create his own shot off the dribble anymore tho, which led to awful efficiency.
He was cooked. Quite arguably the most negative presence in the league after the Achilles: he shot a horrendous percentage with high volume, and no one in LA would demand that he stop. But his sycophants will manage to make three seasons of horrid individual play into someone else's fault. Kobe making three all-star teams from 2013-14 through 2015-16 is a ridiculous joke, and points back to the aforementioned delusion and shamelessness that drives Kobe's fanbase.
These replies act like the initial comment didn't say that Kobe did got worse. He was still one of the best players in the league in the 2013-14 season lmao. If he had better players with him, he *would've* played better since he wouldn't be taking most of the volume of shots; the plays called would be divided, he would be playing less minutes thus better efficiency, etc., etc.
I miss Kobe so much too the NBA ain’t the same there’s no excitement for me I don’t even like the Lakers no more just never the same feeling without watching the Mamba on the court.
@@goatedaustin 34 to 35 is hardly someone’s prime, is it. Yes he was still one of the best players in the league, but he wasn’t the best he’d ever been.
Can you realise that is a guy with a knee that barely has any cartilage, with a index finger arthistis, plus a messed up shuolder, a bad spine and a semi potato achiles, over his 35 years old doing this kind o shit.. Never will be another Kobe again. rip mamba.
He had to take it easier. I loved Kobe and that injury crippled his career. If he had a better it team it might’ve been different but the 2012/2013 season when he injured his Achilles he was in year 17 of his career still averaging 27 PPG - if he hadn’t gotten injured I believe we would have seen him for at least 2-3 extra years - rip Kobe, Gigi and all those on that helicopter ride
This just shows how lebron is on another level when it comes to longevity. Feels like this Kobe is on par with the current Melo. Still above average but not a star anymore.
Rest up Goat🙏🏽
Will always be the GOAT in my eyes
Yay great player

Just say he got worse, kobe no more lol. Don't pander around, don't be denial

@@vincentmedina one of the best players during 13-14 season? Hell nah he played 6 gameas that season while averaging 14 pts per game
I miss Kobe so much. He was the only player my brother and I wanted to watch, no matter what. Now we can't agree on any games.
I play like Kobe. You can come watch me play.
@CalmToxin kwahi doesnt have the same feeling and killer in him
@@Ep07123you talking pseudo basketball lol
@@harmanjotsingh4230 let me rephrase my comment,I meant to say that kwahi's playstyle is not as exciting as Kobe's

Its sad watching his dunks from 2013 compared to this, a lot slower and lower now
Justin Mercado hmm but just slightly 🤔
Hes was still a good dunker tho
Agreed, 2013 Kobe @ 34 had some of his best dunks. One of his best seasons ever too. The last time we saw the real Kobe before the achilles tear.
Yeah he dunked like Curry after the injury
Age also plays into the factor
Thank you for uploading. So sad watching this after his passing. RIP.
I miss Kobe man for real. 😢
2019 no more black mamba 😥
He really lost his first step and an inch in vertical leap after that achilles and knee injury. It really took off his remaining athletiscm.
No kidding bro
Plus he was pretty old too
@@ejsonmon he was in his prime when it happened
@@goatedaustin 34 to 35 is hardly someone’s prime, is it. Yes he was still one of the best players in the league, but he wasn’t the best he’d ever been.
@@goatedaustinhe’s talking after the injury not the injury itself dumbass

who’s here after kd’s achilles injury?
Me bro
Fuck KD
@@brycejones7365 that 7 foot human shit can't even dunk after getting injured.
@@SOSteele1987 well this aged terribly wrong
RIP Kobe, still shake my head that it actually happened
he still had the skill and the mamba mentality...injuries and his body just gave up and his athletisicm went away😞
I miss Kobe on the court 😔
same here
The NBA wasn't same after Kobe leave..
I miss Kobe on this EARTH
Kobe really leave the world.. my heart pain!.
we miss you Kobe
if I'm not mistaken #6 was the reason he separated his shoulder and ended his season that year.
you are correct
LeBron did it?
Kobe could still get up
MambaTV Not anymore :/
Crazy how most of us would kill for even this Kobe's dunking ability
Kobe had the quickest hands!!!
AnEn Jordan yes Stockton no
@AnEn yes it is facts. Kobe actually had small hands for a dude his size you're right. People need to do research.
Hard to watch Kobe 2014-16. Not the same guy.
killer beat at the start
yea what beat is that?
James Bond Stay Alive by Fly Union
You can tell on his jump the game past him by
I would have probably been the greatest to ever play the game if it wasn’t for those injuries
I like this list made that reverse dunk he had last because that was def his m.o
his final laker teams were so horrible, i never want to relive such days again
I watched this and then when it was over I realized that he was gone and then some of the juice about the vid was gone out of me. Damn.
Why would they show the dunk where he torn his rotator cuff?

one thing tho that never changed after achilles was the defense!
Kobe huhu
RIP
He has to jump really hard to dunk after that injury.

Clyde Drexler Dunks just like this his entire career and guys say he is flying. The Cap.
This was after holy hell
All two footed dunks. Makes sense
What about tha flush on Gerald Wallace and Mr. Kardashian in Brooklyn OMG he DESTROYED them dudes.
That was pre injury
You cant be playing in the NBA anymore getting dunked on by kobe after his injury.
This aged like milk, curry and warriors went on to get 4 rings after this
Why is Howard laughing?
Cuz he didn't get posterized!
ua-cam.com/video/hnwxddaX3jg/v-deo.html
Because he farted.
He looked fully recovered to me
81
Wasn't #5 before the injury?
Lol. That is literally his first dunk after returning from Achilles injury
Ma dogg 🤙🏽
🙏🏽 🐍
we can't lose....
Man injuries sure is a bitch eh?
If you watch Kobe dunking in his AFRO hair, these are his lamest dunks of his career. So sad
Dwight howard u cant beat kobe !
This just shows how lebron is on another level when it comes to longevity. Feels like this Kobe is on par with the current Melo. Still above average but not a star anymore.
呃逆呕吐🤮!
