1:42 a 75 greatest player with no desire for 4:30am workouts 😂😂😂😂
I mean who would ? That's sleeping time, sleeping matters alot
@@Frank6OvO kobe had a hard time sleeping and he knew that was NOT good. You're 100% right. 6 or 7am? cool. 4?? Those 2 hours matter more than even kobe realized until he tried his best to address it.
@@cloudunderweather9554 Then go bed early or forget the club.😂😂😂😂
Precisely why homeboy has 0 hardware..... He didnt check his ego until well late in his career (Portland Melo.. this Melo actually played defense)... IIRC he played pretty good defense in these olympics.. Im sure George Karl (Den HC at the time) was hoping to see that level of effort/intensity on defense during the regular season..... NOPE.. Another thing that widen the rift between Karl and Melo (Karl had a huge ego too...)
@@Frank6OvOwho would ? Obviously the entire USA basketball team.
The beauty about this story was Kobe didn’t try to lead. They just all voluntarily followed.
True natural leader.
partly also because other member are highly motivated as well
Nerd
Leading By Example. “Eat my flesh, flesh of my flesh.”
And that's why Kobe never lost while wearing USA on his chest. A perfect 36-0
Kobe refused to lose.
LeBron was ok losing.
That's the difference to me
Real leader. No words spoken. His teammates knew what to do after seeing a real leader lead
💯
Kobe modelled after jordan. And took it further.
All these guys had career years after being around Kobe in 2008: LeBron first MVP and Kobe comparisons, Wade led the league in scoring, Melo first conference finals (only to get beaten by Kobe's Lakers), Dwight making his first finals (only to get beaten by Kobe's Lakers), CP3 became the best point guard in the league. Mamba influence! 🐍🔥 One of a kind
I never thought about it like that it’s very true he sharpened the stars of that era
2009 melo improved as well making it to the WCF with a stacked denver team making it super hard for kobe’s lakers
@@THELAIR1 Facts
And that's why he's top 3. Him being able to make other players great because he pushed them to be great is something that many people don't understand.
Hmm 🤔 I didn’t think about it either. It does make sense though
“Kobe was the best player…” 1:57. K confirmed what I always felt, that Kobe was the best player on the Redeem Team in 08.
Even Lebron said that Kobe was the best player in the NBA in 08/09.
The USA vs Spain gold medal game solidified that.
Lmaooo melo too honest
Gotta love that about him 🤣🤣🤣430am is a force
🤣🤣🤣
No disrespect to Melo. He's great in his own right. But notice how the ones with rings wound up putting in work with Kobe.
@@lionface007 that speaks volumes
@@lionface007 Anthony was just in the wrong team. Ain't nothing to do with his work ethic.
Kobe deserves some serious respect because of his work ethic. These stories pop up all the time. And yes, he wanted to play defense against the best player on all the international teams. One of the reasons he's a top player of his generation was because he had the talent, but he also outworked everyone. MJ was like that, too.
Nah. He's SINGLE HANDEDLY the greatest player of his generation. He didn't have the "talent" of the other greats. Natural jumping ability, explosiveness, speed, strength, physical attributes was nowhere near that of the Vince, Rose, Westbrook, MJ, Wade, T-Mac, Dwight, LeBron, etc. Even AI for his size was extremely naturally athletic. Other than height it ALL came from hardwork and dedication to the craft for Bean.....
true
@@dawb86this is facts. Kobe is average in terms of his wing span, jumping ability, and other natural talent for players at his height. But he is bar none the hardest worker including Jordan, and it’s not even close
I really miss kobe..... who knows what he could have achieved in films if hes still around.
Very true the world doesn’t even know what they missed out on
How much y’all wanna bet that Kobe was up all night waiting for them to get back. And soon as they get in the hotel he meets them down there. Just to show them the Mamba mentality 😂
Lmao I bet he was
I was thinking that the entire time they was telling the story he purposely wanted to walk past them
Mamba would’ve been in the gym working on his game regardless
he been doing that since his laker days, highly doubt it.
Yes he learned from Michael Jordan. Doing his thing. On how to be the best
best scene of the documentary for me.
I agree 100%
Kobe was that guy. US don't beat Spain without him.
But when I watch the game I'm impressed of the reason Spain keep it close. A great strategy at the first half and 1st quarter put Kobe and lebron on foul trouble.
Kobe was the one who brought team USA back to glory
Those others kept losing in the Olympics and fiba cup until they called up kobe to come and lead them and he did that and the result showed itself
He was the engine
Just like they did last week...
and it makes sense. Out of all the superstars in that team, Kobe only knew the true European basketball game. Think about it...
Kobe never played in the FIBA cup. It was Durant and Irving who won those
Fiba and Olympic rules the same.
Kobe was a monster and it really is a good story for these kids nowadays that if you want something bad enough all you got to do is work hard ... kobe wanted greatness and he worked hard for it.... thats why he is a legend 💯🐐💪
Kobe was a rare breed. That is what is wrong with these new athletes that want to be the best but do not want to master their craft.
When my dad told me this story, it really hit me man. Hearing it now from the other players, Kobe was the reason for the Redeem Team man. He changed everybody’s mentality on that Olympics team. From going out late at night, partying, having fun, to getting serious and winning. Kobe was different man and I live my life exactly like his Mamba Mentality. I would be that different guy from everyone else. I don’t care about missing out. I put in the work over having fun.
He was 1 of 1
RIP Kobe, you were my hero. You were so special 😞
1 of 1
I watch this video every day after done workout early morning , He’s motivated me all time
I don’t blame you no better way to wake up in the morning!
Kobe changed team USA culture. Period.
I saw this teams relationship as a two way thing. Kobe showed his teammates dedication and commitment. Whereas Melo, DWade and Lebron got Kobe to relax and lighten up, so the experience was beneficial for everyone involved.
Very true one of the best ever assembled
Kobe was built different.
Mamba mentality.
Melo saying that practice is too early is the reason why he has 0.
Kobe: 5
Lebron: 4
Wade: 3
corny
@@WilliamOMGA Facts are corny to you goofball?
@@WilliamOMGACorny but true. Love it or hate it. Facts over opinions.
Hearing this actually inspired me to workout at 5:30 before my 8 am shift
That’s amazing I need to do the same
The Real Goat
1 of 1
Every time I see this gives me chills makes me wanna workout hoop
REST IN PEACE FOREVER KOBE BYANT 😭😭😭😭😭
Power move by Kobe. Probably waited for everybody to fall asleep then went back to his room lol.
Nah bro that's just a Tuesday for Kobe to be honest. He trained like that his entire career!
That's the true story of Kobe's career right there, WORK ETHIC! You don't become great without putting in the work.
Love this story/segment of the movie! When I coached Jr High BBall, had a very talented group but they were still kids, BUT curious. I remember days before practice I'd purposely show up with a tee shirt w/ chalk on my back from a heavy squat session, knee sleeves down by my ankles, still sweaty. Or come in wearing a tank top after an arm day or bench/back day lmao! Those boys were always curious asking questions about fitness. So I'd give them a rundown as to what I did on that day, explaining the benefits of your health - long term, looking good for yourself or wanting to impress ladies, keeping your body strong just cause! Their 6th and 7th grade years we were runners up against a power house middle school team. The first year we should've won but our inexperience showed, the year after our 2nd leading scorer broke his foot and our shot blocking center couldn't make the game due to his parents being out of town! Heartbreaking. And this was before I ever saw this movie obviously and I never knew these stories about Kobe and this team, THIS story in particular lol!
So that summer in 2019 I'd reach out to the boys on social media/chat room we had going on and I'd tell them "meet me at UMaine football stadium, we're going to run the steps, work on sprints, lunges, light tire flips, some plyometrics as well." Other days we'd work indoors, doing body weight exercises, stretches, regular basketball drills, shooting, going over the triangle offense etc., so we'd be more then prepared. We ended up winning EVERY league we were in that year 19-20! This same group, now going into their senior year won STATES in bball and were runner up in football this past year! I'd like to sit here and brag saying "yeah, I started this up." Maybe I did but the most important thing I see NOW is I did my job! I taught kids/teens good habits regarding health and fitness and it's paid off. Some of these boys now are almost as big as me... Not quite BUT getting there!!! LMAO!
Just clicked the like button on this video BTW! ;)
“Oh yeah he different” 😎✔️
They don’t build em like this anymore
@@THELAIR1 very few
Kobe is real leader in usa men basketball team he always wake up early and workout early that is real leader
As a Bulls fan, i love Boozer but i legit forgot he was on the 2008 team lmfao
Me toooooo 😂😂😂🤣
he was the 12th man
Kobe had Aura like no other
I wondered why Team USA placed Bronze in not just 04 Olympics but 06 FIBA as well. This video answers the question: No leadership
I would have to agree
Bad coaching as well. Weird lineups that doesnt fit the team
Rip kobe
#mambaforever
Kobe is the epitome of hardwork.
Kobe taught these dudes how to be winners!! 🐐 *bahhhh*
Carmelo is me 😂
Wtf?
Yea but you see that out of the Greats to play on that team, he's one of the few without a chip lol
@@dyreman20True, but circumstances also contributed that also. Had he taken a shorter contract in Denver like LeBron told him, he would've been able to join LeBron and DWade in Miami. That was supposed to be the plan originally. But Bosh joined the group instead.
@drestathagangsta8880 Melo didn't need to be on a super team to win a chip, Neither did LeBron for that matter. But my point is I think Melo's prime years could have been extended a bit if he took his fitness a bit more serious. Even if he didn't win a chip, that Denver team could have contended a bit more as well as that NY team who had Amarè. But Melo constantly suffered with little nagging injuries which held him and his team back.
kobe stories are the BEST STORIES
Legends🙌Mamba forever and always 🙏
Infinity ♾️
Kobe's work ethics 🔥🔥🔥🔥
That’s why Melo didn’t became great he was just good
💯
Not great? Lmao
Looking back at his career now that he’s retired he’s definitely had a great career 1st ballot hall of fame
Melo was great Foh. Bro a first ballot hall of famer
@@carlosboozer6017def not great
2 Alpha males on the squad. Lebron the outgoing and extrovert alpha and Kobe the quiet and introvert alpha. Kobe proved you don't have to be outgoing and loud to be an alpha. He lead by example on his own and the rest of the team followed suit.
LeFlop an Alpha ? 😂😂😂
Kobe is a legend
I wish they'd do a documentry like showtime did on garnett on chris bosh or kobe
I was hoping I can watch and hear Kobe’s opinions about the journey of the redeem team. It was special for him
To be part of. RIP ❤.
this is one of the illest stories told by NBA players. yall wanna party & mantwerk, while Kobe was putting in that work.
#MambaMentality
Easily my favorite this one and the Gasol one 😂
Priceless ❤
thats whats called leadership fellas
This story shows that they would not have won Gold if Kobe wasn't on the team. The rest of the team just wanted to party
People forget that Kobe lead a team full of legends
LeBron, Wade, Melo, CP3 and Dwight
All would become incredible players that would make history, and Kobe beat them all during the NBA seasons after the olympics
After the 2008 Olympics, everyone on that team came back better players. I honestly think that's because of the example Kobe set.
My boi Chief : loves Kobe's worth ethic !!
He was 1 of 1
That's why Melo never got a championship because he didnt want to put in the work kobe did.
You might be right
Legend, lead team USA to the gold #mambaforever
Boozer like, “we were dressed to impressed, flyest stuff on, best coat of paint on my head…”
The redeem teams wives thankd Kobe for this
Melo cracks me up haha
Mamba mentality
Winning fcking mentality
Kobe was him
A REAL example of SIGMA
For context, team USA came home with a bronze last Olympic games with the same core unit. They knew changes has to be made. They need a dog in there
Gimme the hard worker over the talent ANY DAY
He was always the alpha even after lebron and them
LeBron always gotta cap LMAO. Everyone else said kobe was on his way to the gym and bron goes “he was already drenched in sweat “
he made all of them feel so insecure🤣
This os ehy MJ loved kobe ...he was that DUUUUUUDE
Man I forgot about that song
Carlos Boozer says everybody cuz he didn't wanna make Carmelo look bad by saying everyone but Carmelo.
Michael Jordan knew kobe was not as good as him, but he respected him for not wanting to be like mike, he wanted to BEAT MIKE
Melo just showed why he didn't get a far as he could have
Rip
My new idea put all the dream teams on NBA ps5 feature awesome play all teams
Thats melo got 0 and kobe got 5 lol
🤣🤣🤣there might be some truth here
Damn don’t do him like that 😂😂😂😂😂
Give melo shaq and he has rings as well lol
Melo don't have work ethic just talent.
They would've lost without him. Period.
kobe
Lead by example
Redeem team, hey we lost but now we are gonna win so we redeem ourselves for playing poorly in a game we invented.
And this is why melo is ringless
I never thougbt melo was in basketball shape his whole career to be in the leauge tbh
Does anyone know what cap Carmelo is wearing? I've looked for it but I can't find it. please help !
At least Melo was honest...lol
There's all kinds of Drugs and then There's The Kobe Juice..
I wanna that but also I don't wanna die..

KOBE: OH MAN IM SO SORRY BRUH didn't know what happen, I've left to go get a Gatorade 🧃 then came back after checking on my family. I heard you went to the hospital.
EVERYTHING ALRIGHT ❣️☺️
ME:‼️⁉️🔥❤️🔥🧠🌡️👀🥺😡🤬🤯
THE FUCK DID YOU JUST SAT TO ME...
AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH..
AND THEN I DIED 🌹
KOBE WAS THE HEART AND THE HERO OF THE TEAM. BRON AND WADE WERE THE EMERGING BATMAN AND ROBIN AND MELO WAS ALFRED. IDK “430?” THATS TOO EARLY MAN”😂😂😂
Does anybody knows the brand of Carmelo’s hat? That shii 🔥
Leadership
The Greatest Of All Time.
Stop. Lebron James is not on his level. Yall Just like lebron becomes his is bigger and more flashy. But he is better M.J or Kobe
facts!!!!!!
For me this is why I revere Kobe over LeBron. He led with actions over words.
We all know Kobe hanged in the lobby on purpose and waited till they came in to show those young'ins how it's done. 🤷😂
I wonder if Kobe is a INFJ, INFP or ENFP.
I always thought INTJ for him
he is ENTJ
The difference between good from great.
Melo if you insisted on training like Kobe you would have won a championship 🦇
Lol Melo saying 4:30 is too early is just funny but idk Kobe might be the goat but of working hard I mean he wants it more then anyone can make tens of millions doesn't actually have to work another second if he chooses not to and is set for life but still chooses to get up at 4:30 in Vegas in the off-season
Bron says this is what turned him into a dog
How can a 1st ballot hall a famer not be great??
Kobe was short for Kolbert
Anybody know what song is playing when Kobe walks in?
Hustling by rick ross
No the one where there is like a sound coming once Kobe is mentioned going to the gym
@@mujtab8siddiqu1 big things poppin - T.I
Argue about the goat, if bron had kobe or mjs mentality he'd be the goat. He's the most gifted one but those guys were sport psychos
that's why Kobe>Lebron
