#NBA #KobeBryant #Lakers
This Kobe is the most skilled and arguably the best player of all time
People love Jordan and rightfully so, however I feel Kobe is the modern day standard.
Lmao. No, he is not. And this was NOT even Kobe at his best. He was 30 here. Kobe averaged over 35 a game in 05/06. That was Kobe at his best. His last few years as #8.. And even then he STILL wasn’t “the best ever” , Jordan was FAR more skilled than Kobe ever was. Kobe tries to base so many of his moves OFF of Jordan…. MJ has TEN scoring titles. Ten. Kobe has two. TWO…. MJ literally has as many scoring titles as T-Mac, Kobe, Iverson, Wade, and LeBron ALL PUT TOGETHER lmao. Kobe is also the all-time leader in MISSED shots. LeBron is the all-time leader in TURNOVERS. MJ was better than both of them together.. MJ at the top of his game had ZERO weaknesses. Zero holes in his game at all. None…. He won the MVP, the scoring title, AND the defensive player of the year in the SAME damn season. And that wasn’t even his BEST season. That wasn’t even him at his peak yet. The dude had 7 consecutive scoring titles. Averaging over 34 a game in that 7 year stretch. Averages over 30 for his entire CAREER. Kobe’s career average is 25.0; MJ is the goat. Period. He just is. There’s no getting around it if you actually LOOK at him, look at his stats season by season, game by game, and for his entire damn career. Highest average in history with over 30pts a game. And he led the league in steals at least 3 times. Won 5 MVPs to Kobe’s 1. Won 6 FINALs MVPs to Kobe’s 2…. MJ is the goat without debate. It’s not even close.

Kobe had handle but he didn’t need to do fancy moves to score . Everything he did was tactical , quick highly effective moves .
Great scorer that didn’t need much room
Excellent defender that wasn’t afraid to guard the best player .
Bro was just a different breed 😤
@Poopypants Biden naw bruh lol lebron travels
ua-cam.com/video/lyLKXXtRM0Q/v-deo.html💯💯
@Poopypants Biden if u trying to troll u are trash my guy
@Poopypants Biden your name says it all lmao
Facts, once he stopped trying to be A.I. with the handles, and became more of a fundamentals player...he took off
I consider this to be Kobe’s prime. I know that he wasn’t as athletic as he was before, but here he had the perfect mix of skill, poise, and agility to make him the best player in the league. Still can’t believe he’s gone.
The second best
Kobe's prime was 1999-2010. He was already the best player in the league by 2001. Sure, Shaq was the dominant Center of the team, but Kobe was the most important player on those teams even in 2000 as far as allowing them to win championships. He was not only the team's best Guard by a mile since the 1997 season, and he was the Lakers best defender by a mile as well. He guarded guys like Reggie Miller, Iverson, Kidd, Stockton, Ray Allen, Vince Carter, Tmac, MJ, Carmelo, Lebron, etc. I remember back in the 1996 playoffs against Utah, Kobe was destroying Stockton defensively as a rookie. Stockton couldn't handle Kobe's athleticism and size. Kobe was a big strong dude. Most people remember the air-balls Kobe tossed up, but there was a good reason he was allowed to take those shots. His coach at the time knew exactly what Kobe was going to become just by seeing the way he was playing defense and offense as a rookie. Kobe was just too tired to make the shots as an 18 year old coming straight out of high school.
@@donavonhoward1899 Kobe’s prime was 2000-2013
Lebron passed kobe as the best player in the league this year.

It's crazy how people can say they love basketball or watching highest level competition but don't like if not hate a guy like Kobe. Dude went out and COMPETED, performed and played his butt off night after freaking night. Man played injured, played on BOTH ends, didn't LOAD MANAGE, didn't cheat the fans or TV viewing audience. He would have played all 82 games if his body held up. He wasn't perfect or flawless by any stretch but that man earned every right to be on any competent individual's all-time great player list.
^^THIS 💯
Key word: competent 👏🏾
Kobe is a certified top 5 player at worst. I personally have him top 3 but I can’t really understand anyone having Kobe any lower than 5. One of the greatest and most skilled offensive players of all time, multiple scoring titles and even put up 35 a game in the dead ball era. While also being one of the best perimeter defenders ever and making the all defensive team 12 times if I remember correctly. 5 chips to go along with all that, while being one of the clutched game mentally toughest players to ever play, only MJ and Bird are on his level of mental toughness in my personal opinion.
He turned basketball into an art form.
No he didn't...MJ did that he established that before kobe came into the league in 1996 ...you youngsters are tranquilized
serious? kobe’s footwork still to this day is perfection at its purest.. and mj can admit to that..
@@lordfinesse8324actually it was pistol pete with the way he would use the basketball as a magic wand and the many innovative tricks be brought with it.
But still Mj was a monster I’d love for prime MJ vs Prime Pistol Pete that’d be a spectacle
@@Tonyboney939It was Baylor first
*Arguably the most SKILLED basketball player ever.*
Between him, Jordan and Hakeem for me. I don’t put Kyrie there because I consider defense a skill
@@jeffhardy6333 Hakeem cannot initiate offense for his team. He can't move with the ball well enough on the perimeter to be in the most skilled ever discussion. Def at the top as a big man and post scorer. Jordan, Kobe and Kyrie have more ways to score down there than him though. We need to stop giving big men extra credit for doing things everyone should be able to do.
jordans layup package was wayyyy nastier
@@afterthought6889Hakeem is a C tho, he’s not playing like a guard or wing to be out in the perimeter. U throw it to him in the post, as close as he gets to the rim, or set a screen with him to initiate offense with him. A C can start fastbreaks off of blocks, rebounds, and outlet passes too. Hakeem had some crossovers when he’d face up too and some of the best fakes, up and unders, you name it.
Saying others got more ways to score down low in the post or near the hoop is crazy. Hakeem is a C who’s dominating the post. Which is all about playing as close to the rim as you can and not to mention Hakeem’s ability to shut down the paint.
@@Spider-Complexion is it crazy? When it comes to mobility, most bigs can only compete with other bigs. MJ and Kobe can combine their mobility with shot making that just cannot be matched by any big (yet). I did say within his position (C) Hakeem is as good as it gets. He gets a lot of credit for being an innovator as a big who brought more mobility in the post than his peers at his position. Hakeem's back to the basket bag is no where near as deep as MJ or Kobe.
Kobe’s best season. He was on a different level mentally. That playoff run was ridiculous
Better than 05/06?
More than an hour of Kobe's highlights! Sheeesh Max thank you
They don’t make em like this anymore. So blessed to watch Kobe all them years growing up
Same here ppl just don’t understand he put the franchise on his back
The most skilled basketball player of all time. 1 on 1, give me Kobe 10 times outta 10. Idgaf about advanced analytics. I have never personally witnessed a basketball player better than Kobe Bryant and I have been watching basketball for over 25 years. He will guard your best player and cook your best player in the same game.
Nobody is better than Kobe. Fuck these nerds with the analytics… Kobe is basketball personified. Only other person as great was Mike.
He is the best one on one
jordan is more skilled
@@Ralphunreal at what? Can’t be talking about basketball.
@@samonthecreekKobe and Jordan play the same
forget the stats and accolades when u watch this guy play there's never been anyone this good besides mj
I think its so incredible that Kobe was an all-timer without really being more athletic than everyone else. He's not blowing by defenders, he's getting inches, sometimes less, and still making plays. Did he miss a lot? Haha, hell yeah he did, as a Laker fan he was incredibly frustrating, but I always trusted him. I honestly did think that every shot he took was going in lol. He was amazing.
Honestly he wasn't even that inefficent. During his prime years he always had TS% that was around 56-58 which was above league avg and it was higher than most of the other elite peremiter players in the 2000s
@@pradayou5405 that's why that percentage argument is just a bad argument Kobe was more then stats and percentages
His makes on contested shot I believe is higher that anyone in the league 💯
Dude the times were different. it wasn't a stats and advanced metrics league like how it is now. Kobe had to throw them up, many years he wasn't the 1st option, he was the only option. His true shooting % is right there with LeBron and mj. hes taking more difficult shots...
@@GoatReactz you remember the Chris Mihm days??? Brutal lol
Kobe = Superior Skillset & IQ, Mental Prowess, Killer Instinct, Clutch, Superior Footwork and Athleticism, Mid Range Jumper, Turnaround Jumper, Fade Away Jumper, 3ball, Post Up game, Offensive & Defensive Juggernaut, 5 Rings, 3peat, Dynasty 🐍🐐
Yeah 100%. The only nba player to match Kobe’s attributes is ben Simmons.
@@SuperGGLOL nice joke
I know lebron was good this year, but kobe won 65 wins swept both the cavs and the Celtics, not just that he had 65 wins when the west was in sicko mode. Kobe 100% deserved MVP over lebron, kobe got robbed multiple years of the season mvp.
06
08
09
10
Those should of been all his. The nba robbed this man of so much including Chris paul and possibly 2 more rings Highway robbery man. Also one of his best and most underrated defensive seasons was that year in 09 should of been dpyo that year. He was in his absolute best in terms of mental, leadership, offense and defense and was out for revenge on the Celtics no one was going to stop him not even Jesus like George Karl said after kobe eliminated she nuggets in the wcf.
@@ohhhyeahhh1174 you speaking facts. seems like the league wasn't ready for another player to surpass Jordan so quickly.
@@ohhhyeahhh1174 ok no he didn’t deserve any of these years
Every year I purchased a ticket months in advance to see him play, whenever he came to Charlotte (who were Bobcats back then) he never sat; never showed up to rest or look cute on the bench with his jewelry & what not. He came to play & most of the time put on a show in front of his idol (Mike). God blessed me to witness my GOAT perform in real time. 🙏 Rest easy your legacy will never die
Kobe literally mastered every single thing in the book of "Fundamentals of basketball". His game is so effortless and majestic. He's the type of player people will analyze 50-100 years from now. An absolute killer scoring phenom.
I remember this season like it was yesterday! Kobe was out for revenge against the Celtics and unfortunately the C's got pretty injured in the playoffs and didn't make it to the Finals but what Kobe did against the Magic in the Finals was purely Jordan-esque. God I miss Kobe..
I agree 32pts 7asst 5reb in the finals was just insane in game 5 he had four blk he was in another level
I agree. Kobe was out for blood this particular season after losing to Boston. It was amazing to see.
The path kobe took to win was I think the hardest path on a superstar. Those 3 trips to the finals and winning 2 with only pau and good role players in the west was so special man. Kobe is tough man, really tough. No days off, took everything to win at all cost until his body cant take anymore. Barely seen a player like him in todays game. But I have high hopes on Ja morant. Kid was a killer reminds me of a young kobe.
And people don't give him enough credit in 10 finals he beat four hall of famers KG Rondo Paul and Ray
You never played basketball he had the best front line in basketball those three years hands down Pau was a a top 5 pf Bynum was becoming the 2nd best C they both made All NBA during that stretch and Odom won 6th man at the end of that stretch
@ Anthony banks put things in context bynum did nothing in the 2 finals wins in 09 and 10. Matter of fact he was almost never in the closing lineup to finish games, and had bad knees those years go look at his numbers in the finals those years. From 08-10 when the Lakers went to the finals Kobe was the only all star in 08, then only pau made it in 09/10. Those accomplishments for bynum/Odom you mentioned was after the finals runs were over. If bron had won a chip with those guys people would be saying he won it by himself.
@@rockcity2297 I agree bynum didn't even play the entire fourth quarter in those finals
That's what makes him the GOAT. No Lebron super teams, no waiting for seven years for another HOFer to get a ring like Jordan, not needing another top 5 of all time player like KAJ.
Kobe Bryant is the reason why I picked up a basketball And started watching playing the game I truly love till this very day mamba mentality thank you Kobe Bryant for inspiring the youth and the hole world we all miss you and Gigi so much my love , prayers are with your family and friends it’s so crazy that you passed away two years ago on January 26 on Sunday mamba out you never know when your life is over here on earth my advice for everyone is to hug 🤗 and love your love ones very tightly because life is very precious live life to the fullest even if you argue or fight with your family never commit suicide RIP MAMABA mentality ❤️❤️❤️🥺😭🕊🐍

By the way this season was absolutely great. The 61 Point Game at the MSG, which is still a record for an opponent player and he could’ve won the MVP (65-17 Record in the Western Conference is simply brilliant)
Yeah I think he would’ve won the MVP this season if Lebron didn’t lead his team to a 66-16 record in the same season

@@theurge6183 well it definitely isn't now
Poetry in motion. This guy had the best skillset that i have ever seen in basketball. I'm not saying that he was the best of all time, but his skillset was almost perfect.
Kobe Bryant was the true definition of a Basketball Savant. He is the most technically proficient basketball player in NBA History. He could make any type of shot, finish at the rim, score in the low post over either shoulder, and his footwork was IMPECCABLE! His greatest attribute was his unparralled thirst to constantly update his database which allowed him to excel in multiple eras of the NBA. Combine all those ingredients with his intangibles such as his psychotic competive drive, fearlessness, leadership, will to play through injury is what made him an All-Time Great. R.I.P. To the LATE GREAT KOBE BEAN BRYANT.
Couldn’t have said it better! 💯
Unbelievable how much this guy got ostracized on his path to win. A severely underappreciated career. Miss the guy so much, he would've done so much more for basketball overall.
As talented he was young Kobe was an asshole but he was driven and motivated to be the best. He became more of a leader later on but he never lost his killer instinct. He made sacrifices that most player's didn't. He succeeded so it was all worth it. Rest in Peace Kobe Bean Bryant. Enjoy paradise.
@MentalStillness Michael Jordan was an asshole too that picked om himself GM, bullied Scott Burrell, and Punched Steve Kerr in the face and still was beloved. The media just hated Kobe Bryant. That being said Michael Jordan is The GOAT respectfully.
people still talking down on him today. the most common argument i hear is how his career accomplishments have been heavily inflated since his passing. we're at the point where ESPn makes GOAT rankings that exclude kobe with some arbitrary criteria, only for said criteria not to apply to other people on the same list. it's just asinine.
I really became a Kobe fan by watching Kobe in '00, 01 seasons, a true legend.
I always had this feeling that Kobe is the best ever, I know it’s a very unpopular opinion and I’m not a basketball expert, but the things he does and the way he does it Idk it just looks spectacular.
Same feeling. Rings/stats/media love aside, there has never been a more skillful basketball player than Kobe Bryant.
I agree too my guy 💯
@@quierodesign3958 He was the most talented and influential athlete since Muhammad Ali and Jackie Robinson.
It's not an unpopular opinion. Most of us think Kobe is the goat. It's LeBron fans that are bums always disrespecting Kobe. Jordan fans always respect Kobe b/c they understand.. but no.. you're not alone! Kobe to me is the *GOAT🐐*
He's my best player ever
This was my favorite Kobe season outside of 2010!! We needed this thank you!! 🐐
Mine too. I loved seeing him shut all the haters up that said he couldn't win without Shaq. He even shut Shaq up too.😂😂😂
This season should be a textbook for any player wanting to learn to play shooting guard
watching this it's crazy how much contact Kobe drew without the refs blowing a whistle every play
like watching a completely different sport from today
That's why Lebron's over-inflated scoring cannot be trusted. I call it the James Harden Effect.
Very true! Todays NBA is hard to watch. I miss this era. When Kobe retired the league got soft
@@quierodesign3958 NBA over the last 4 seasons has over inflated scoring plus making the big man almost obsolete.
@@quierodesign3958 stop talking basketball
@@rapgodreloaded9259 not true. There wasn’t inflated scoring in 2019 or 2020

Bron fan here. But I have to admit that Kobe is top 5 all time. What couldn’t he do in his prime? He was elite on both ends of the floor, 3-dimensional scorer, ruthless competitor and killer mentality. RIP Mamba
He went to 3 Consecutive trips to the NBA Finals in the toughest Western Conference where a Houston Rockets team that won 22 straight games one season was a 5th seed and a 60 win Mavs seed was a 4 seed. Kobe came away with 2 chips with just 1 All-Star on his team. When you factor in Kobe Bryant's skillset, peak, level of competion(Positional, Playoffs, & Finals), clutch ability, longevity, plus intangibles he is easily Top 5 All-Time. I have him as high as #3.

1A: MJ
1B: Kobe
Kobe's move on court always a masterpiece..
This season was Kobe’s absolute best season of all time, he was still athletic af but he also had perfected all of his skills this season
This video is profoundly mesmerizing.From the footwork, the shooting motion to the atheleticism. One of the goats.
Man...a lot of these shots (regardless of the point in the games) were ABSOLUTELY DEMORALIZING....GOAT
Felt bad for Ronnie Brewer in that playoff series. Kobe made my mans look silly with the amount of tough shots he hit on him.
These highlights show that he really wasnt a copy of Jordan. He had some athletic plays but Kobe had counters to beat defenders and in contrast Jordan would be able to overwhelm them with pure athleticism.
Yep....Kobe studied Michael, but also was intrigued on Jerry West and his floor game, how he maneuvered, found gaps in the defense. Kobe studied a lot of different players, and incorporated some of their best traits little by little, while mastering Mike's moves.
He wasnt as athletically gifted as Mike , he wasnt as quick , didnt jump as high and didnt have the large hands to use ball fakes , so he had to be alot more technical and craftier than MJ , MJ was skilled as hell too but he had better physical gifts
MJs athleticism was a result of his work ethic ...MJ was able to get 10 scoring titles and dominate offensively in a very physical era dealing with teams like the bad boy pistons and wasn't reliant on 3 pointers and plowed thru heavytraffic to get the majority of his points..MJ had brilliant Basketball IQ and second 3peat MJ lost alot of that athleticism so he was more reliant on technique and experience and he was still able to dominate the league and win 3 consecutive championship and scoring titles with 3 finals MVPs..not to mention past prime wizards MJs with tendinitis in his knees averaged 20ppg 2001-2003 at 38-40 yrs old
@Ant Nitti You can see the Tim Hardaway killer crossover too. Just lots of stuff mashing together with insane amount in the arsenal. Simply spectacular!
@Ant Nitti I couldn’t agree more man. But I don’t think Kobe thought of himself as the goat, but he believed he’s better than MJ. But he couldn’t call himself goat because without the like of Michael, Jerry West, he would never become who he was.
Kobe was the face of th-e league throughout 05-10
His footwork this season was incredible
Thank you for everything you did Kobe. You made me want to become a better player and person. You gave everything you had every single game you played. I am forever grateful for that.. and privileged that I was able to watch you play. Miss you Mamba. RIP
I can say that Kobe not only motivated me thru high school and college basketball but the mamba mentality became apart of my life. Just being great at everything and keep striving for greatness. R.I.P to my favorite player ever you’ll will always be missed and never forgotten
This man was the greatest to play the game and I'm not arguing it
Not even close
HE IS WAY BETTER THAN LEBRON SO NO ARGUMENT THERE
MJ VS KOBE IS DEBATE THOUGH
The best Kobe Bryant #24 ever! He had the all-around scope this season. Leadership, skillset, basketball IQ, efficiency, awareness & defense.
As a laker fan besides magic throwing up the hook against the Celtics that year in 09 was the most fun I had of any other laker team. This guy wasn't the fastest, strongest, quickest but what he had better then most aside from Mr. Jordan was his heart and had the guts to go at anyone no matter what size or strength they had against him, I still believe and will always believe this guy should of ended with 4 mvps and 2 more rings before he retired, this man was robbed so much. Even going to the parade was amazing the route to Figueroa st all the way to the rosebowl was memorable.
NOBODY and I mean NOBODY wanted smoke with '09 Kobe that dude was on a different planet that year after Bynums injury against Memphis and he came to hit 61 in the garden the very next game I knew that was the moment where I said ain't nobody standing in this dudes way of getting that ring and damn did he get it!!! #MAMBA

@@koolkai4299 Unless you take Lebrons word of him saying he felt he was the best player ever as gospel, then I don’t want to hear it. It wasnt until 2015 he finally admitted it. Lebron was better RIP to Kobe and he clearly was the second best in the league but the tape told the story.
Also the GMs voted Lebron as both the MVP of 09 and 10 before the season started
@@koolkai4299 yea from 2007-2010 & 2013-2019 (from the time the article was posted) Lebron has been the GM favorite to win MVP.
@@koolkai4299 facts they did not want KOBE to overshadow MJ so LEBRON was the easy pick. With the eyes it is easy to see KOBE was the best player on the planet. LEBRON did not have a rape case on his rap sheet too, so of course the NBA management were ready to hoist him up as GOAT.
06-07 season and this season were his prime in my opinion. There was around 2 weeks in the 06-07 season where Kobe was literally putting up 50+ every game. EVERY. GAME. Kobe always made tough shots look routine. But the 08-09 was also great because he had a championship team and he had more players that were able to contribute besides him. Anyone who watched during the 08-09 season knows how much of an endurance test it was for the Lakers in the playoffs. You had to beat 4 tough ass teams (Jazz, Rockets, Nuggets and Magic). Kobe reminded everyone that he was the best player every year and won his first chip without Shaq. It still feels surreal that he's gone. R.I.P Kobe 🕊🙏🏼
The GOAT. I will be waiting for 2009-2010
jordan is better
08-2011 I had some fun times watching Kobe and the Lakers. R.I.P Kobe I was lucky to watch your entire NBA career
this is honestly the best basketball i’ve ever seen mate and to think i was only 9 while this happened
48:52 This game right here.. is probably the greatest display of offensive skill that I've ever seen in a single game. Kobe brought out the whole BAG. Players don't even attempt those kind of shots today, let alone make them.
With today's rules, he can average 40+ a game easy
1/2 of Kobe's redemption arc after the heartbreaking loss against the 08 Celtics.
I modeled my entire game growing up from this version of Kobe Bryant geez 😬 and it works putting in the work youngins 💪🏾
Yup no cap i started watching nba this season. So im still learning about early kobe. But i def was here for this era of bean. I thought I'd never seen a more fantastic player
My name is Kobhe so I am so happy to see these highlights. Mamba forever 🏀
To me this was his best year of his career Bc he his athlethism was still there and he understood what shots to take and when etc he was diffrent during this time
Kobe is probably the most skilled basketball player ever.. He had no weakness
jordan is better
Kobe also went 2-0 against LeBron and 2-0 against the Celtics before KG got hurt, wish we got to see him dismantle them instead of the Magic
Small size sample but you know Kobe wasn't going to let 2008 repeat itself
Am I the only one who notices that most of kobes shots in highlights are CLEAN swishes. ??
This gonna make me cry no cap
Kobe Is the best shot creator the NBA has ever seen. He doesn't do it with fancy dribbling, it's all footwork and head fakes. Jordan, KD, LeBron are all more efficient but Kobe's creativity is like watching Picasso paint it's just beautiful basketball man.
He shot a lot of bailout shots which he wasn't afraid to do so unlike lebron. He's a better shooter than lebron.
The thumbnail is absolutely beautiful
“He cant guard me “
God, I miss him.
Just look at how Kobe moves and the energy he brings to the team. How can these casuals have the audacity to put him out of top 5 let alone top 10? Man, he got robbed of like 2 MVPs.
Most definitely my favorite Kobe season. Most capable/complete version. Beast 💪
The nostalgia is UNREAL!
Will forever come back to these clips as long as I’m alive. Rip mamba❤
This is straight 🔥..great job as always. 🐐
