#KobeBryant #MambaMentality #MichaelJordan - Спорт
I cannot for the life of me figure out where everyone thinks Lebron has surpassed this guy.... seriously, i don't get it
I don’t get it either
I really don't understand it. All they do is look at stats. They must have never actually watch Kobe play
Stats don’t tell the whole game
Media just hyped that lebum clown
He hasn’t. It’s just the media wants him but ask the players and the fans lebum ain’t even in the same class as them
When Michael said, "When Kobe died, a piece of me died", you know the love that these guys had for each other. RIP Kobe. You are still deeply missed.......
HIS DEAD hurts to this day...
we lost amazing human, husband, dad and a normal person. I cry every time i watch a Kobe vidio...
For sure man one of the biggest death impacts forever 💜💛
When MJ officially retired it’s when I truly started to enjoy watching Kobe play and no one ever came closer to MJ than Kobe.
Fact 💯
As a person probably no one, but as a player DWade. Third best SG :)
Duncan came close
@@aquarpioleonine3995 Duncan is up there.
@@aquarpioleonine3995
You've got to be joking.
That’s the best description of MJ , “relentless and flawless”.
Because they knew i might lose now, But i will not stop, I wish kobe won one if he came to chicago, But thats life, you lose and lose, but you will win if you just say im not giving up.
Kobe was so gorgeous.
Kobe was the only person that could handle the mentorship and friendship of MJ.
and Scottie....
@@thabeaststl3703 true
@@thabeaststl3703 I meant because Kobe was mainly his protege from a different team
Handle? Kobe forced himself on MJ 🤣
@@thabeaststl3703 stop it…MJ had to drag Pippen…Kobe was coming along on his own
Michael and Kobe are both prime examples of having talent AND work ethic
You have to have those things to even be in the conversation for the greatest ever Bird had that Lebron has that
And humility.
Word and like the man said from his own mouth in this video Iverson is on that list also
i'd say steph too, given some of the absurdities i've heard him doing. not even counting a shot that hits the rim as a make anymore? i mean c'mon, that's insane. and mike blessed him in that interview they did together too. mike recognizes it.
Its not talent.. Its sticking to something thru n thru.anybody ...ok maybe not anybody lol buy you know..if you put that work in and dedication to be the best.. Then youll do it. Just gotta have that mindset.
For me Kobe is the best player right after Michael. Rip Kobe you're missed.
Yup! 2 best players ever in history
The last best player in the NBA
Lebroooooooon Jaaaaaaaaaaaaaames
totally agree. 2 best players all around. the 2 best to look up to as well
I honestly think If lebron would of play against any of this two era he would have had a lot of trouble to win MBP or championships
But , I guess we’ll never know.
Lebron is very good in he’s time.
Don't cry because it's over. Smile because it happened.
While it is sad, he will be remembered for a LONG time. He is a legend.

@@user-tg3wn7cq8hNo, Dr. Seuss said "One fish, two fish, red fish, blue 🐟, nick nack patty wack, give a dog a bone, 2000 zero zero, oops! Party overtime. My bacon's smellin' fine."
@@funguy1986🤣 Message!
Kobe will be remembered FOREVER,not just a long time.
No flopping, no load management, no skipping teams to try to form superteams, no whining, only a killer instinct and competitive drive. Seeing this reminds me of better NBA basketball than we see today. RIP, Kobe.
Preach well said
No excuses. Man shit. Rip mamba. They don’t make em like that no more
No excuses, Greatness! GOAT 👌
Thats why none of today's players can be compared with those guys back then. Spot on bro
Sirisaac, u right, LeBron going from team to another team, kobe stayed on 1 team got 5 Rings! Shaq 6 teams and only 4 rings, 3 rings with kobe
Everyone want's to be like Mike,But there's only one dude that come close to him and that's KOBE. RIP MAMBA
💯
💯💯💯
I love the way Michael took Kobe under his wing, and respected Kobe's game and Kobe's work ethic and their similarities. Because typically, Michael would dig his heels in and view anyone who challenged him as a threat. And Michael would turn his power up to the 11th degree to eradicate the threat (like he did with the Pistons, Knick's, Pacers etc). But I'm glad that Michael saw in Kobe not a threat --- but a younger brother to be tutored and shaped and molded into a second version of himself. And the game was all the better for it. (Who better to take advice from than a guy with a perfect record in the NBA Finals???) MJ-AIR-23-😎🐐 ♾️💯
Awesome comment.
It’s like he finally found someone worthy to be mentored.. with similar skill, determination, IQ, and work ethics.
@metafour suspended humm... "pride is love when it stops killing". That's quite profound...
Well it's probably because it's something that was on his mind or he just unconsciously started to sway towards over the years after his first leave. It's a beautiful thing though to see and hear about. I just know that Kobe's death must've fucking hurt like a bitch for Michael. God, as a fan that shit hurt, but for Michael being his mentor/brother? Damn
@@BeowuIfs Kindred Spirits. They both recognize themselves in each other.
Man.. I gained a lot of respect for Kobe watching this. What a good dude. Unlike someone else *cough* he doesn’t even want to be compared to Mike. Ain’t concerned with someone calling him the “greatest”. He just wanted to be the best he could be. Absolute legend. RIP
Lol
Kobe was better than Lebron
Yeah, then when he retired he said that he was better than Mike.
@@bertyoung3868 Many players were lol. LeBron isn't top 5 ever. He barely gets in the Lakers top 5 ever.
Because as he said "MJs the GOAT get serious I just wanna be the best I can be
The closest anyone will ever get to being like mike. Respect. RIP
Exactly. There is no next mike but the closest that there ever was in my opinion was Kobe Bryant.
The closest anyone will ever get to being like mike & the closest any player will ever get to Mike, personally. RIP
Giannis doesn’t play like them, but his drive to be great, his mentality on the court. He’s the closest since Kobe IMO
But Jordan wasn’t a bad shot taker and Jordan by far was a superior defender
@@Rio-GE-V Jordan is the GOAT!
They both found another person on the planet that understood each other’s drive and tenacity, and when Kobe died, I didn’t expect it to hit MJ the way it did, but like he said, he lost his little brother that day. Great video!
Kobe Tribute video I made guys!

Kobe was so lucky first he never met 1984 - 1993 Jordan lol he met an old Jordan, and second everything he did was imitating Jordan, Kobe had no game of his own, so if Jordan never existed who he was going to imitate
@@poligonzo5300 how u gonna demerit KB like that bruh!!! Kobe by numbers, championships and ethics is one of the best in the game… prof me wrong
@@poligonzo5300 Jordan's best statistical years were during a time period that had almost identical numbers as todays game, average team score and possessions. Kobe played during the slowest era, team score & possessions, in NBA history. Kobe would have averaged 40 ppg in the 80's or today. Let me put things in prospective for you. When MJ averaged 37 ppg, the Lowest scoring team in the league averaged just under 104 ppg. When Kobe averaged 35 ppg, there was only ONE team that averaged more than 102 ppg. MJ is the best I have ever seen and I grew up watching Magic and Larry. If you don't take into consideration the era they played in compared to other eras....Wilt is the best player ever and it's not even close. Trust me on this, if MJ and Kobe met each other in their prime, only MJ's legacy would be taking a HUGE hit considering he is the GOAT. Just saying.
@@billsikes4007 Kobe needed Jordan, he needed to imitate him, without Jordan Kobe has no style, if Jordan never existed there is no Kobe, or you are missing the fact that Kobe said there is no 5 championships without MJ, did u see the last dance, Kobe saying it himself check it out
Two unmatched talent. They are legends. They will never be replaced. RIP Kobe. I loved Kobe, but, Michael Jordan is the best ever basket ball player.
True because Michael jordan is the greatest of all time & if it was him instead of Kobe bryant everybody's would be Saadiest & disappointed because without Mike there's no Kobe bryant or LeBron James & not even close Michael jordan change sports period...
The way he spoke about the spin move really goes to show how much dedication he had in studying MJ
The relationship was rooted in one simple universal truth.
Killers Respect Killers.
Yep.
1. MJ
2. Kobe
3. Everyone else.
Can't be said any better than you put it right here!!

End of story!!!!!
This needs be on a shirt 👕 or better yet, the Smithsonian.
This is why Kobe and MJ are literally my two most favorite players ever.
💯
I'm a lifelong Laker fan that grew up in the 80's, so my order of favorites are 1. Magic 2. Shaq 3. Kobe 4. MJ
@@petergunn3614 best list in my personal opinion
My two favorites forever
Front runner alert!
Over the years, as a Jordan die hard fan, I have gained a lot more admiration and respect for Kobe Bryant. Yes, he was flamboyant, sometimes arrogant, but most of the time a true student of the sport, one of the greatest players in the history of basketball, and a passionate competitor. A winner in his own right, a product of talent and great work ethic, a legend made bigger by his contributions on and off the court. He may not be my idol, but he will forever be one of my favorite players. He may not be Michael Jordan, but he has earned and deserved every thing, and he will be forever be a legend of the sport, the one and only Kobe Bryant.
and its times like this you wish..... MAN!!!!! its too damn bad Lebron James didn't have a valuable father in his life LOL.... yeah, SURE he had male mentors in hs but that brief engage meant can NEVER come close to the bond one has w/their father and how grounded it makes you thru out life w/decision making... u know Jeff's dad use to come w/the bulls all the way till that tragedy happened...
Both Killers.
No stupid flopping.
No drama whining.
I'm 80s-90s guy, when NBA was NBA.
But somehow Giannis and the Bucks brought some dignity back in the NBA.
I couldn’t agree more ! Kudos to Giannas for signing an extension after having back to back playoff plunders. He said let’s run it back & got it done. Nothing but respect in league where you lose 5 games in a row & you have to trade everyone. I miss the days of going through adversity & earring that title !
agree. include kawhi too, when he won with raptors is special.
Giannis has that old school mindset, work hard and make it work where you're at
No giannas I’m sorry you got to be kidding me he is a big man running over small men getting the calls he’s not that good like Hakeem real skill and defense better than any other big man from the 90 era hands down giannas doesn’t even compare to him.
Thats cause Giannis is Kobe's little brother!
Man imagine you walk into a restaurant and Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant are having dinner, sheesh.

Facts
Watching old footage and seeing interviews with kobe still hits deep to this day. Still can't believe he's gone
Like a library full of knowledge was lost
I don't think so there's a slew of players I'd take today before I take Kobe.
Whenever in high school when Kobe passed away I straight up got almost teary eyed whenever he was brought up in conversations, but was able to fight it away. He's been a MAJOR influence on me and to my work ethic towards my passion in life even though it's not basketball. I didn't know him personally and only knew the version of him we saw on screen, but that shit hurt like a bitch.
It's amazing how Kobe would be inspired by Jordan. He had tremendous respect for him and their bond and friendship was one of a kind. Simply two legends!

Jesus Christ loves you
Facts!!!! And Kobe is greatly missed😔
MJ respected Kobe back enough to take the time to teach him.
No wonder lebron wasn't hanging out with them.. 😂
I wonder if we will ever see it again. A player so fierce, so athletic, so gifted that they completely overshadow all the pro athletes around them. Total domination to the point its no discussion who owns the league at that time. A player that nobody wants beef with. A player that actually instills fear in their opponent. It was Jordan, then Kobe, but it has been unclear ever since Kobe retired.
Nope because they don't make them like they use to. Video games social media etc.
In the long run Kobe became closer to Michael than any of the other friends in the NBA that Michael had prior to Kobe. He truly was a brother to Kobe and Kobe was definitely a little brother to him
Facts and he knew it too he was very humbled to be compared to MJ remained loyal to one organization and gave that team their everything #23 #24
Even when he’s just talking about MJ, you start getting emotional because you know he isn’t here any more. Such a tragic loss.
So is'nt his daughter and the other 7 people.
@@toms9651 is the video about kobe and mike or about the other people who died in the plane crash 😂
@@momo4044 Not my fault you got no compassion for other people, especially young people like his daughter.😡
Kobe's daughter was part of his life, so this has EVERYTHING to do with Kobe.....stop beeing a troll or an asshole. That is starting to get very boring and old. Easy to be an ass against people when you are anonymous behind your screen. Get out and meet people or grow up.
Also get empathy for other people and their suffering. You need to learn all three cause you suck as a human that does not respect other human and their pain. A celebritys life is not more worth than anyone elses life. Especially his young daughter who did not even live her life as long as Kobe did.
@@momo4044 I was also replying to Ivan Michaels comment not the video. But idiots like you have zero brain to think with, you just love beeing an asshole and an anonymous troll. You also lack the knowledge to act properly with respect towards other people. As i mentioned 3 times now, you only like to troll and beeing an ass. Wich means you need to grow up, or learn to discuss things as an adult not as a kid, like you did now with your childish comment against me.
Do not comment on people when you have zero clue what other people comment or is discussing. Especially when your brain and thinking capacity is as low as yours.
You will be blocked if you reply in an immature way. Cause you will only win at your own game, beeing an immature ass and a troll is your expertise , not mine cause i know what respect is. Give respect to get respect. Give compassion to get compassion. Be nice to people, then you deserve to be nice to. But you know nothing about those things.

I was never a Kobe fan but since his passing I have learned more about him he was the closest thing to Michael I have ever seen and probably will ever see rest in peace black mamba
I have always said that there will never be another MJ. However, if someone made me pick someone it would have to be Kobe. I watched a video with NBA stars giving their top 5 greatest of all times. There were several stars that said Lebron is a great player but how did he pass Kobe without anyone saying that. People need to give Kobe's game respect.
That’s master and apprentice. Different breeds. Y’all applaud a team switching finals flame outs who took the easy way out. There’s levels. The RESPECT that Kobe demonstrates and professionalism. These two never took a night off. Never cheated the game or the fans. Again. LEVELS.
Oi oi. Calm down. Don't go talking about someone that wasn't even mentioned in the video. Of course you overlook the seven years spent in Cleveland with a front office that didn't draft no one close to what Jordan and Kobe had in their early days.
Sure you can criticize anyone but really hating on a man who spent 7 years struggling loyally for the same awful team and management?
Remove hate from heart. It gives you nothing but hurt. You don't have to like anyone but this video is of MJ and Kobe. No mention of the guy.
Unless you're talking about A.I. or CP3. If that's the case kindly go fuck yourself.
One time Kobe wanted out of the Lakers to play for the Bulls. But yeah still a valid point
@@beegeebad3193 This is common knowledge. Kobe wanted to BE JORDAN hence looking to get traded to the BULLS. It wasnt simply because he couldn’t win. That was the cover. He literally shopped for homes and looked at schools in the CHI because of his adoration of Jordan. This has NOTHING to do with the statement I made bro lol we’re talking apples to oranges. In the end Kobe won TWO chips as the leader of his squad. Jordan won SIX with zero losses. Lebron has made SUPERTEAM after SUPERTEAM and has TWO chips without damn asterisk out of TEN attempts. Levels.
@@dzeliongurung3218 mj didnt have anyone on the early days as well. Grant and pip are not prized draft picks. Kobe had the best team starting but Lbj also had a 2 time allstar all the way.
Bruh let’s not pretend e ref didn’t go to prison for the Lakers to 3peat or that Kobe dad traded Pau to the Lakers for nothing…Kobe is great but nowhere near MJ level
Kobe had a lot of respect for Mike and the feeling was mutual from Mike
They will always be linked together. RIP MAMBA.
Mike and Kobe are two greats to ever play the game. My heart hurts that not only is Kobe gone, but that he wasn’t able to speak at his Hall of Fame induction. It would have been fascinating to hear what he would’ve said.

The relationship these 2 had was special! It truly was a Big Brother little brother, mentor relationship We're Michael got to keep living through Kobe succeeding in the NBA. You can tell how much respect and love they had for each other because they each were the only person that they are both willing to show a little humbleness for. Where Kobe acknowledges he would not be Kobe if there was no Michael Jordan, and where Michael Jordan gets asked could anyone beat you 1 on 1 and he says only Kobe because he steals all my moves. That's as humble as you'll ever see these 2 ever get about anyone. They truly were kinder spirits!
Not all his moves the GOAT was humble
The amount of respect between MJ and Kobe is unlimited. The two best to play the game in my era and in my opinion the best ever.

The mutual admiration and respect between Kobe and Michael was evident. Crazy how when Kobe was younger people thought he was fake and as he evolved he paved his own path and grew into his own and proved he was genuine and real as they get.
"let me be me!" Amen to that.
I’ve always expected Mike and Kobe growing old together as friends and competitors; the greats
I like how kobe states him and Mike wasn't friends Mike was a mentor like a big brother....absolute respect from kobe
The amount of respect for one another is admirable. Especially Kobe’s towards Jordan. RIP Black Mamba

Kobe is like the carbon copy of MJ. From the way he talks during interviews, his "win at any cost" mindset, he walks like him and of course plays like him. I still can't believe he's gone.
He’s a poor mans jordan is the best description
@@TheSands83 nah, i would say he's a carbon fiber version that's been enhanced for better performance, though still doesn't feel like the original.
@@GREATUMMAYAD 😂😂😂 he’s less athletic and worse at every aspect of the game except 3pt shooting 🤣
@@GREATUMMAYAD better performance 😂😂😂😂 he was like a 98 version of jordan in his prime… u clearly have no clue. He’s definitely not enhanced… he was basically jordan when jordan was 97-98 jordan that would b peak Kobe .. Kobe never could shoot 50 percent in a season let alone a career. Kobe could barely do that in a game. Kobe was below league avg in the clutch. Jordan had 10 more inches of vertical leap.. jordan was faster quicker stronger had way bigger hands . Kobe had little hands for his size. Jordan had the 7th biggest mits in nba history. Jordan was more efficient in every aspect of the game. Plus was a physical freak . They both had insane work ethic but jordan was much sharper mentally. He was like a surgeon on the court. Kobe was just a watered down version of the original
@@GREATUMMAYADcmon bro kobe can’t be enhanced for better performance 😂 he was slower, weaker, smaller hands, and couldn’t jump nearly as high. The reason kobe was so good despite “average nba genetics” is cus his work ethic was absolutely insane. Jordan had great work ethic but then also gifted with insane athletic ability.
That's cool that Kobe played against Jordan late in Jordan's career. Got a chance to play against his idol and learn from him as well. Kobe did the same thing for lots of players towards the end of his career and was a good father figure to his daughter's. R.I.P to the legend Kobe Bryant
He did a great job of not outshining the master & received the heights of power RIP BLACK MAMBA ❤️
I sometimes go workout and all the sudden my mind gets filled with Kobe. I tear up every time. He was more than just an athlete for me…miss you, Mamba.
💔
I couldn't stand kobe when I was younger... especially his attitude. Now, I really appreciate his killer instinct and will to win...something that players don't have today.
Same here. Miss that instinct that these guys had. They loved the physicality ...not like these dudes now throwing a fit to the ref.
Yep same
I hated the guy because he was a genuine player that could have dethroned mike. Man did Kobe come so close. NBA is not the same without mamba. Arguably one of the best that ever touched a basketball.
What a loss! Sounds like he was as much of a gentleman and legend as MJ.
The level of respect and admiration they had for each other and the game, just legendary.
This is what's so irritating when these GOAT conversations are mostly about LBJ and MJ. LBJ needs to get past the conversation with Kobe first. Stats don't mean anything. LBJ has stats over MJ and Kobe, but what separates Kobe and especially MJ is their drive to WIN AT ALL COST. Also, they were franchise players, winning championships without a so-called "super team."

No one is impressed with 53-29. Every team has injuries. LeBron is one of the best but not a killer and always looking for help. Wade and LeBron those years was so weak. That wasn’t like two all stars. It was like two MVPs surrounded by all stars.
Lebron stats is longevity…
Lebron has nothing on Jordan with stats per game. Not even close!
Emotional/delusional Lebron fans will say otherwise 😂😂😂
Never cared for Kobe (a lifelong Celtics fan here), but damn he was a talented individual. Not only that, but he was also a steadfast student of the game. It's his drive, intellect, talent, determination, and skill all wrapped into one person that set him apart from most all other players. I'll always admire his want to know everything about the game he loved.
Same man. Hated this dude but always respected his dedication to the game.
I hated him. Respected him later. Salute.
I love the fact that you guys are un byist and real and respectful cuz Kobe got alot of disrespect and not enough praise.. if there was never a Jordan then Kobe would be the goat but the fact that Jordan was mostly who he molded his game around you cant have one with out the other I'm a Kobe Lakers fan but I could only watch the bulls celtics or Lakers those three teams as a collective to me had the best players to touch a basketball in my opinion
@@shawnanderson7933 Ohh...I disrespected him throughout his career. Being a Celtics fan, it came with the territory. Also being a Bird fan...I was much more into team basketball rather than the 1-on-1 ball Kobe played in his early career.

I was such a dedicated MJ fan…I mean the man was my idol. I couldn’t like Kobe because he was the heir apparent and seemed to be on that meteoritic rise to equal/best Jordan. I just couldn’t. But looking back I realize I didn’t like him because he was just that damn good.

@@depannist iverson was special. Still can’t believe a 5”11 player was that dominant. Playing against him you knew you had to endured his relentlessness for 40 plus minutes. Great athlete, great competitor, one of the most electrifying players I ever saw play.
“Big brother” always picks it up.🥺❤️
The class and respect Kobe shows toward Mike says a lot about Kobe and the greatness he saw in Jordan. They saw a lot in each other which made Kobe so dam good too.
Rip Kobe, you will always be in the hearts of all the hoopers and basketball fans. Happy 2022 to everyone.
Its crazy how if you look at both of their various interviews, they speak and sound identical. Not the actual sounds but the words they use and how they both show undeniable respect to the game and its players
Goat talking about goat :)
The closest thing ever to Jordan was Kobe and not only did Kobe have respect for Jordan but Jordan has respect for Kobe!
Another reason why this relationship was so great was because Kobe wanted to learn as much as Mike wanted to teach. It was beautiful.
Damn. Miss Mamba. Love their bond
Michael only wanted competition and I believe be seen that in Kobe. He found some one that had the same drive and motivation has him.
Nope. Kobe is competitive on the court. Kobe is content with him being himself. Jordan is a competitive psycho. He wants to beat his opponent at EVERYTHING. Kobe is far more rational.
Michael also found someone just as ridiculously talented and as confident as himself.
It's simple. Jordan saw Kobe w no fear, he had no choice but to respect him. Kobe was fkn relentless. MJ same so that's why MJ respected him. He pretty much saw himself in him.
@@marblemadness8870 I think even Kobe alluded to that in a interview. Jordan carried that nature everywhere 😂😂
@@marblemadness8870 Maybe psycho’s win more?
I love that he described him as a mentor! So many stories of people who played with Kobe who say the same thing about him. A true quality of great people is they ALWAYS help others they are in it for the collective growth and not singular success.
Personally, a kobe fan. But, we are lucky to be alive to see Jordan and Kobe highlights 🤗.
Had no idea Kobe had so much respect and admiration for Jordan
@Rishitiran Anandeswaran yeah he even sticks his tounge out like Jordan, he was Jordan fan..
@@red23rd We all are🙂
THANK YOU
@Rishitiran Anandeswaran 😂😂😂😂 I know right. Smh
@@stinkytofuz so true
RIP my man Kobe Bryant 1978 - 2020
Kobe was a good person a good man and a great player and it was a tragic loss to the whole country/ the world when he passed away . May he and his daughter RIP. ✝️🙏
"I wanna be the best I can be!"Kobe Bryant🙏🤍
Well Michael did show up to Kobe Memorial and Hall Of Fame admirable and respectful.
I miss Kobe😢 ,yeah MJ Is the .GOAT
I Love the fact that he said he wants to be the best he can be. He definitely attained that! 🥰👏🙏
Rest easy Kobe! May you live again in the days of God’s rule.
God bless his soul, he was such a great human being. My idol I grew up watchin.. Love u kobe
The GOAT mentoring a MAMBA
He was a splitting image of Mike the way he played. Jordan and Kobe will always be the greatest
Wow.. Kobe was so cool. And I love his humor and the relationship that he had with Michael Jordan- How Michael took him under his wings--- that was so next level
.... Kobe understood and could relate to Michael's hyper competitiveness. I can't imagine how it must have hurt Michael when he/we lost Kobe, and after Michael had poured all of his knowledge and TRUST into Kobe. Godspeed, Kool Mamba
The GOAT and the second greatest his little brother the Great Black Mamba. I am blessed to have watched them both in their primes. R.I.H. Black Mamba
I love Kobe 💔 used to hate him.. I learned to love and respect him. He was Jordan's little bro. I miss you Kobe.
RIP LEGEND. Not even a basket ball fan but gravitated to you due to you being an incredible athlete with amazing work ethic but an even better human being
Mike was Kobe's GOAT! I Love This...
am in tears when watching Kobe talks and in particular about MJ. I am a very ordinary guy, but Kobe IS my inspiration at everything. RIP
My big bro who was Jordan era said he watched Kobe at 2003 all-star game, MJ last all-star game, and said MJ lucky to be considered the goat bc Kobe was coming.. so gratifying bc ppl always said to me, “you never saw MJ” even tho Space Jam (the original) came out when I was in 1st grade. Point is, I knew who MJ was, but put some respect on Kobe name. Long live the Mamba 💜💛✊🏽
@M N .. the comment wasn’t look at how Kobe was dominating MJ.. it was look at how Kobe was dominating ALL of them. That’s the point. Kobe could never get his full credit bc he was always compared to MJ.
@M N oh I have no doubt MJ would dominate ANY era.. he’s the undisputed goat.. jus sayin if there was a baby goat it’s Kobe Bean.. kinda like MJ = Mufasa, Kobe = Simba if that makes sense 😂
I wouldn't say MJ was lucky, but just like Jordan said his 91 year, he wasn't lying. 91-92 Jordan was better than any bball player ever. Kobe did what we all tried. Be like Mike. I remember the year he was wearing Jordan's, I knew he was definitely that dude. Jordan is my GOAT, but Kobe gets the ultimate respect.
I shed tears when Kobe passed. So now I have a 1yr old pitbull and he loves his name. KOBE
Omg I wanna cry when he said MJ was his big brother several times. Kobe was also the player Jordan respected the most.
"And there you go LeBron James. Kobe said it, M. J is the G.O.A.T"
