Alex Reyes That’s why I like Celtics Fan and also the Celtics Of Course you „hate“ the Lakers but there is always Respect from you Guys No hate No Harsh Feelings Just Normal Game Emotions You Guys are good Enemies and I hope that we will meet again in the NBA Finals 🏀 #RIP Mamba🏀🙏 #0824💜💛
For real. He had to be on fuckin cloud 9 after making those. You'd feel like the biggest bad ass ever, hahaha. Even if you sucked ass the rest of your career, you'd always have that in your back pocket. So Sasha what is the most valuable thing in your life? Well obviously making those free throws. So that's more valuable to you than your wife and kids? Oh, one HUUNDRED percent
At 11 years old, I thought this was one of the greatest games I've ever seen, my family were all Kobe fans, cheering and yelling in celebration, but at 21 years old today, I skipped to the last ten seconds of this classic, and seeing Gigi and the siblings, but this time I'm in tears of sadness, heartbroken because my favorite player is no longer alive. He thought us that it takes everything to be great at you do, for that ,THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING KOBE. January 26th, 2020 is a day I'll never forget.
Yeah bro same thing.I was 12 years old there and i didin't miss single finals since 2008 but so far this final better then everyone.Miami dallas was epic but this year was something else.I alsa cried watching this all good memories childhood time love of ball and fav player so far kobe.The world fucking so empty and nothing to worry about this Lie world.U cant know whats ur future going to or after 5 min later u cant predict the life.But im so happy to watch prime kobe.RIP Mamba we will always love you :(
Same here bro. I'm also 11 and most of my family are lakers fan. kobe is the reason i played basketball this 09-10 season I started copying kobe's moves
Hard to believe this was 10 years since the Lakers last won an NBA Title with Kobe Bryant and 10 years since we last saw the Lakers battle the Celtics in the NBA Finals God Bless You Kobe Bryant and Thank You for all your contributions to the NBA and to the World of Professional Sports R.I.P. Mamba
@@mikemoggerson6651 lol everyone was you dumb fuck. boston shot 40% from the field while the Lakers shot only 32%! but pau 18 and kobes 15 rebounds gave them enough chances to pull of the win. they just wanted this one more thats why kobe a goat. this was a grind it out defensive game. one of the greatest finals games of all time. KG and fish were the only players that shot over 50% from the field. pierce 5/15 allen 3/14 pau 6/15 metta 7/18 bynum 1/5 and kobes 23 on 6/24
This is basketball. No stat padding, no hugging and kissing, no trying to look pretty. Just straight grit and grind, blood and sweat, cuts and bruises.....man I miss Kobe
@Lisa Rose Please read it again. Yea he did go 6-24 but did he cry about it? No he still grinded and did everything else he could. And I wasn't just talking about Kobe. I was talking about basketball as a whole. Please learn reading comprehension
I remember Ron Artest’s clutch three, But I totally forgot about Vujacic clutch free throws. That was a high pressure high risk situation, he barely plays the whole finals series and just comes in and sinks two clutch free throws. Put some respect on his name!
K well he played when the Lakers weren’t that good, that’s how he made bank. Pretty sure he was a starter in the 2008 Finals but the 2010 Lakers were a much deeper team than 08 and he became a benchwarmer
What a series this was Reviving this historic rivalry Two prized fighters going toe to toe in the trenches, just like back in the 80s. Tough, rugged, raw, relentless determination on both teams. So fortunate to have witnessed this game 7 live
I miss this Lakers team I miss Ron Artest doing crazy things I miss Pau Gasol screaming after every layup I miss Andrew Bynum getting injured I miss Shannon Brown jumping out the gym I miss Phil Jackson coaching And most importantly I miss Kobe doing his thing
7 game series? Pau gasol? Nope! Kobe average 25 plus points in this series... on in game 7 run out of fuel.u cant give a finals mvp on 1 game.kobe desereved the trophy
Thanks for the YT algorithm, this series still makes me touched. The defense and competitiveness is real, no matter how the league have changed, it still brings me back to that perfect era. We miss Kobe so much… From 2023.
It's insane seeing the role players play with such aggression and grit 💯! You can tell Kobe drilled the mamba mentality into everyone he played with 🐍 🏆
Man that rebuild time was when that core group gelled after years of grinding. Sasha, Luke, Odom, Bynum…then the addition of Gasol….Fisher doing the Jazz dirty…great times…. Those last two championships were hard earned…Loved that team.
Every time im sad, because of the Lakers' bad seasons, I just come back here and watch these past great moments. I remember every finals games, my dad wouldn't go to work and I wouldn't go to school, just so we could watch the Lakers win championships. Despite being born in 2000, ive loved the Lakers longer than I can remember. I hope the Lakers can get back on track, and get Kobe his 6th ring. Go Lakers!!
Obviously they will come back and win more championships, I'm a celtics fan and either though we're in the playoffs I still know that they will get knocked out in the first round, I really don't even wanna make the playoffs anyway, but honestly I don't think Kobe has a chance of winning his 6th ring...if he comes back next season, that'll be his last season for sure. I'm sorry to say it bro. One day the celtics and lakers will be back in the finals head to to in another classic, amazing round of 7 series that I can't wait for!!!
Yea im a Clippers fan but I have a lot of respect to Lakers fans cause obviously they won more 16 titles I think while the Clippers never won one yet. But I have faith that you guys will win another championship
Damn...I was at my 8th grade end of year awards when this game was on...I got home and remember rushing to turn onto abc and it was end of 3rd quarter....gives me chills seeing Kobe extremely focused and intense
They got favored by the refs, it was so bad, Lakers should have lost this game, all those BS fouls that weren't fouls, put the Lakers on the line, unreal!
Kobe Bryant won his fifth and final ring at the perfect time. Winning against the Celtics, at Staples Center, game 7, leaving the 2000s on top and leading the NBA into the 2010s and passing the torch to LeBron. And having the perfect final game, at home, 60 points vs Jazz, still showing his desire to be better than Michael Jordan, 60 points meaning 6-0 in the Finals vs also against the Jazz. Both hit game winners vs Jazz. He was just incredible at what he did.
@@michaelreyes6258 I'm starting to think these next numbers of jerseys, ages, dates, records, and shot clocks might not be a coincidence to represent Kobe and Gigi.
Ernesto Diaz this is only the highlights not the whole game..watch the whole game instead of yelling your ass in a youtube comment without knowing the whole detail
For all the people saying "Kobe didn't deserve Finals MVP" just because his shot was cold in Game 7 completely ignore the fact that no one really shot well that game (look it up), his index finger was injured, and he also impacted the game in other ways like defense, rebounding and getting to the foul line. And it's called "Finals MVP," not Game 7 MVP. Before Game 7, Kobe was shooting 43.2% from the field, 37.5% from 3, and 93.3% from the line. That's great efficiency playing against great defense in the NBA Finals against a team with arguably 4 All Stars. I'm also not even including his great averages when it comes to points, rebounds, steals, assists, etc...
Kobe's last field goal in this game was a pull up jumper towards the elbow...Kobe's last field goal in his final game was a pull up jumper towards the elbow... Then to have Lamar outlet the ball ahead to Kobe to run out the clock...and then to have Kobe be the one to outlet the ball to Clarkson to seal the win for his farewell... Amazing.
Alejandro Serrano i aint lebron fan or warriors fan or cavs fan ..but down to 3-0 and gsw won at 4-0..that is not what i fucking called “Exciting” i call that an instant game prediction
I'm a celtics fan but damn, what a great series and even though there's a rivalry between us, I really like the lakers and I'm hoping for a rematch in the finals soon. Lakers vs Celtics, greatest rivalry of all time!
Kobe didn’t have the best scoring night of his life. But any basketball fan can see he was still far and away the best player on the floor that night. He flat out refused to lose this game.
To tell the truth that night Gasol was the best by far, probably It was the worst Game of Kobe. But even when it was his worst game he was really important to win that night, that shows that he was absolutely the best basketball player
Kobe never gave up, missing shots but played his heart out on defence. Actually it was the clutch play of Metta World Peace (Ron Artest) really wanted that first and only championship who stepped his game up. Pau Gasol was the rebounding machine.
@@viktorcheng2061see how many times he was at the line!? Why is that... Bc Boston was playing him tough. So when that happens you do something else and he did. Boards and he nailet his fts. Goated.
As a Kobe-Generation person growing up watching the Lakers golden days with Kobe Bryant, this is the best Lakers game ever I watched. This will never be forgotten.
@@chriswalls5831 2016 warriors>2010 Celtics. And Kobe was pretty mediocre in the 2010 finals. 28 ppg with barely 40% FG percentage, 30% 3p% and only 3 apg. Legend but also a comically overrated player. He was statistically never as clutch as Lebron
@@mikemoggerson6651 hater. What's lebron's free throw % in the last 2 minutes of a game versus Kobe's? Since we want to talk clutch. What about who has the most wins in the playoffs vs 50 win teams? And who has more rings in less tries? All the stats that really matter Kobe masters. You can keep the buzzer beater statline. I'd rather have a guy knocking off top tier teams in each round of the playoffs on his way to dominate the entire league not just a conference for ten years, going to the finals 7 times and winning 5. Oh and don't forget the Lakers were down 3-2 this series and won game 6 in Boston thanks to Kobe's 38 on the road. Even in this game he was the leading scorer and rebounder on both teams. And no one but arterst shot a good % that's out of both teams. Oh and who just got another loss in the playoffs to a 50 win team??? Leswept
@@taraatkins4823 what was Kobe doing at 38? And Kobe wasn’t even the best player on his team for 3 of those 5 finals. He was hard carried by Shaq for the 3 peat Lmao. Kobe was statistically not clutch.
REST IN PEACE KOBE! I remember being 9 years old sitting in front of the TV watching this game like it was just yesterday. May you rest in peace with your beautiful daughter GiGi! 🙏
Me too bro i remember watching this w mom n dad n my big brother who was the biggest kobe fan ever n laker fan and towards the end he yelled "THIS IS WHY THE LAKERS DESERVE TO WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP THIS YEAR THIS IS THEIR YEAR" AFTER kobes clutch shot
10 years ago this june, last time Kobe delivered title to LA. cant believe his gone now. Thank You Kobe for all the memories! Long Live The Icon! RIP Kobe & Gigi
This comment is for ALL the idiots who say "Kobe didn't deserve Finals MVP." Kobe's averages in the 2010 NBA Finals up until Game 7: • 30 Points Per Game • 7 Rebounds Per Game • 4.2 Assists Per Game • 2.5 Steals Per Game • 1 Block Per Game • 44% FG% • 37% 3P% • 93% FT% And most people that try to discredit his Game 7 performance don't even realize that he still played great defense, GOT 15 REBOUNDS AS A SHOOTING GUARD, and got to the line plenty while being very clutch and efficient. Kobe knew his shoot wasn't falling, so he used his diverse skillset and basketball I.Q to impact the game in other ways to help his team win, that's called greatness! And on top of that, EVERYONE on both teams shoot poorly in Game 7. And in addition, Kobe also had a fractured finger on his shooting hand. I find it funny how all haters can say is "Kobe shot 6-24" without acknowledging or mentioning ANY of these facts. In short, people should do their research and learn a thing or two about the game of basketball before trying to diminish Kobe's greatness in the 2010 Finals.
GTFOH Kobe shot 6-24 and grabbed 15 rebounds almost all defensive ones while gasol shot 6-16 and grabbed 18 rebounds (9 offensive). What i want to say with this is that kobe wasn't alone. He had gasol (hof lock), shooters like artest and odom, a x-factor like fisher and the most important one... Vujacic. (Kobe deserved the FMVP)
UA-cam is like a time machine for everything! Sports, Music, News, Memories, History, and all of the above! I miss Kobe & Gianna Bryant:( May they rest in peace & be remembered forever!! God bless!! Make World Peace!
That's what I'm thinking. Also how ridiculous fouls are these days, little taps get you sent to the line. Crazy how much the game changes in a 10 year span.
Game 7s are traditionally low scoring games. The Cavs-Warriors 2016 was 93-89, The Sixers-Raptors 2019 was 92-90, etc. Both teams are very burnt out and they’re expected to give their 110% and then some.
One of the greatest rivalry of all time... From Bird vs. Magic into the Kobe vs Pierce,Garnett and Allen era... The Lakers and Celtics was never been boring when playing against each other in the NBA finals. 🎉
Watching this game still makes me sitting on the edge of my chair. I knew the result but it feels like everything is happening in a parallel universe. In that universe, Kobe is still living happily, and basketball is still fun.
Defense is the key.. multiple blocked shots.. neither lakers or the celtics wants the other to score both teams came to compete.. unlike now.. just pure offense with trash defense.. :(
“The Lakers Repeat! Back To Back Titles!!!” Ill always remember that moment. So nostalgic 7th Grade Going on to 8th, man everything was easier. RIP Kobe Bean The Man The Myth The Legend
Daniel Barwatt man I was a Cs fan back then I hated the lakers with a passion I cried after this game because Boston had control over this game majority of the time
In my opinion, the 2010 NBA finals will go down as the greatest NBA Finals of the 21st century. No one will ever touch that greatness of a series ever.
Pumpkin GuineaPig but the thing is, it doesn't had that iconic moment like other finals have. 98' had "The Shot". 2016 finals had "The Block". This game had what? "The freethrows" ???? Kobe and the crew got bailed out by the refs in this game to be honest. Its good for the business though so I'm not blaming NBA, Lakers was the most beloved team back then....
2016 Finals were way better. You had the block, game 5 Lebron and Kyrie both going for 40, back to back 40 point games by Lebron, the shot with a minute left in game 7 by Kyrie, etc...etc..... Only really memorable moment of 2010 was the shot by Artest.
Man remember when he got drafted and traded to the Lake Show….97 vs the Jazz….to Shaq….then the rebuild….the grind…then Gasol Odom Artest Ariza….Lol Phil fkn Jackson……first 3 were awesome, the last two were truly earned….special time and place…
I still can't believe he's gone . I remember watching these finals when life was barely manageable and this game helped me have some joy in life. Rip kobe ... Gone but never forgotten .
Chris Butler that made be true but this was the last true physical nba finals with tons of defense in it before all these rules started to come in the league
Seth Doty real talk!!!! Was the best insane how they were both tied up and just going back and forth like crazy I will always remember watching this 2009-2010 finales man it was the best like you said
This is one of the greatest series of all time! It makes it so much sweeter since it was against the Celtics! So much tension and physicality throughout the whole game. This is something we'll never see again.
14:07 - 14:25 seeing his happiness here... just made me tear up so much. He literally gave it his all for this game and for us fans. I don't think I can ever come to full grips with his death, that Kobe Bryant is no longer alive. Such a ridiculous, unnecessary tragedy.
These were some of the best memories I’ve ever had with my brothers. All watching every single game being nervous, excited, sad, and happy all at once.
@@mufidlassissi5058 it was. Thanks to refs controling the tempo, preventing every warriors run, to make it a tight game. BTW it's included in the most rigged finals like the 06.
Say what you will but mj and LeBron won titles multiple ones as an underdog without homecourt in the finals...they both did it twice vs superior teams ...Kobe never did...he had 1 finals where his team didnt have the better record and he lost by 39 ...he was on the better team usually....LeBron has been on the less superior team 6 times out of 8...
Asmosis Jones bull fucking shit... Lebron was the under dog only in 2007 and maybe 2015 but that was due to irving & love being injured., you mean to tell me a team with wade, bosh & lebron were underdogs? To dirk and jason terry? Or how about a 37 year old duncan a 32 year old parker and a 35 year old ginobli. 2016 they weren't underdogs the teams were evenly matched irving, love, lebron vs curry, Thompson, green.. Stop it your drunk. ( p.s records dont count for shit in the nba.. ) everybody in there right mind knew jordan and who ever he played with in the 90's were the better team despite the record how dare you say jordan was an underdog, and dont give me that whole bad boy piston bull shit.. They were already old and done after they won back to back hence why jordan beat thomas 11 times in a row.. ( also malone & Stockton were never better then jordan, kukoc, rodman, pippen ) neither was charles barkley, or shawn kemp & gary payton.. There's a reason jordan was 6-0 in the finals.. Dont sit here and act like kobe didnt have to battle his way thru tough opponents to earn his rings, especially 2000-2002 dude had to battle the spurs, blazers, kings ( especially the kings they went several game 7's if it werejt for a crooked ref the lakers might have only won twice in that era.. Kobe in this series had to battle 3 hall of famers an all star rondo and another great player named wallace.. That 2010 celtic team was stacked as fuck.. If anything lebrons had it easy as fuck to get to the finals.. Theres a reasom he has a losing record against teams in the west..
Asmosis Jones nigga u stupid Lebron had a super team Bosh wade Ray Allen then with Love and Kyrie the only time kobe had a super team was him and Shaq this team was mostly just role players maybe pau was super star but rest was just role players kobe dueled a big 4 and won
This was the most painful game I have ever watched. I'm a die hard Celtics fan and this game crushed me. This year we are in the Finals, hopefully we get to win the championship this season.
EVERY SINGLE POSSESION COUNTED IN THIS SERIES .the team who had more rebounds ,won every single game ! Kobe was cold from the field but he laid everything out on that court! He grabbed 16 boards against that beast of a celtics team because he knew the Lakers needed as many chances to score as possible .he impacted the game in so many other ways that people refuse to notice! defensive intensity, rebounds, making clutch decisions down the stretch and getting to the line to put points on the board with a broken finger on his shooting hand and bone spurs in his ankle ! He could barely walk and was getting shots in between games ! My nigga did everything possible to help his team win and ofc shout out to Pau and the rest of the boys who played their heart out and got us this W ! Thanks for the memories and clutch ass performance!
@My dudes My dudes I praise Kobe for never giving up and and not hiding from the big moments no matter how badly hes shooting he always believed in himself. Lebron is a pussy.nobody talking about him.
@@aje2321 lebron does the same in the finals, even at a higher rate than kobe. He gets more points rebounds steals assists and blocks thank 24 in the finals. His teammates just don't deliver when it matters most, unlike fish, gasol, artest. 25-yo Vujacic scored 2 FT's in a game 7 in the NBA finals but veteran George Hill couldnt do the same in a game 1.
I will never forget this NBA Finals, Kobe Bryant was the reason I fell in love with the game of basketball... R.I.P Black Mamba & Gigi Bryant 🙏

Heroes come and but legend is forever in your heart❤️

Imagine being Sasha Vujacic and having to take those 2 free throws, in the last minute of Game 7 of the NBA finals. Nerves of steel.
For real. He had to be on fuckin cloud 9 after making those. You'd feel like the biggest bad ass ever, hahaha. Even if you sucked ass the rest of your career, you'd always have that in your back pocket.
So Sasha what is the most valuable thing in your life?
Well obviously making those free throws.
So that's more valuable to you than your wife and kids?
Oh, one HUUNDRED percent
Vujacic Locked in the chip.
Give him a statue in front of Staple for that.
Was thinking the same thing then and now.

@Lisa Rose all of them shot terrible because of the defense of both team played at that game.
thats why defense wins championship
I remember Ron Artest’s clutch three,
But I totally forgot about Vujacic clutch free throws.
That was a high pressure high risk situation, he barely plays the whole finals series and just comes in and sinks two clutch free throws.
Put some respect on his name!
Datu Puti saša vujecic played a decent amount. I think more than at least Luke Walton…
TheLocalLt walton never played yet made millions a year 🤣
K well he played when the Lakers weren’t that good, that’s how he made bank. Pretty sure he was a starter in the 2008 Finals but the 2010 Lakers were a much deeper team than 08 and he became a benchwarmer

Didn’t even hit the net

Two prized fighters going toe to toe in the trenches, just like back in the 80s.
Tough, rugged, raw, relentless determination on both teams. So fortunate to have witnessed this game 7 live

Great defense or not, the 2 teams shooting 36.4% from the field and 27.8% from three is bad offense more than anything else

Im seeing a reminder here that Pau Gasol was truly elite at this point in his career
Was legit convo that Pau was the Finals MVP. Unspoken Laker legend
Hx
7 game series? Pau gasol? Nope! Kobe average 25 plus points in this series... on in game 7 run out of fuel.u cant give a finals mvp on 1 game.kobe desereved the trophy
Roy Gumban And Kobe played Phenomenal defense as he always does he was the best defender in the series
Thanks for the YT algorithm, this series still makes me touched. The defense and competitiveness is real, no matter how the league have changed, it still brings me back to that perfect era.
We miss Kobe so much…
From 2023.
One of the best series of all time.... really appreciate now that I look book at the current state of the NBA.
2008-2010 was the best years of modern day basketball
JasonHoang TRUE, then the heat trade happened and it all went downhill. No more classics.
Nah I don't believe that. The Mavericks and Spurs have given the heat a run for their money

Y’all dumb for these stats
Atleast that time they support and respect each other, everytime lakers call a timeout they hug and give high five not like today's lakers lol
It's insane seeing the role players play with such aggression and grit 💯! You can tell Kobe drilled the mamba mentality into everyone he played with 🐍 🏆
Man that rebuild time was when that core group gelled after years of grinding. Sasha, Luke, Odom, Bynum…then the addition of Gasol….Fisher doing the Jazz dirty…great times…. Those last two championships were hard earned…Loved that team.
The players did it on their own nothing to do with Kobe
Every time im sad, because of the Lakers' bad seasons, I just come back here and watch these past great moments. I remember every finals games, my dad wouldn't go to work and I wouldn't go to school, just so we could watch the Lakers win championships. Despite being born in 2000, ive loved the Lakers longer than I can remember. I hope the Lakers can get back on track, and get Kobe his 6th ring. Go Lakers!!
Obviously they will come back and win more championships, I'm a celtics fan and either though we're in the playoffs I still know that they will get knocked out in the first round, I really don't even wanna make the playoffs anyway, but honestly I don't think Kobe has a chance of winning his 6th ring...if he comes back next season, that'll be his last season for sure. I'm sorry to say it bro. One day the celtics and lakers will be back in the finals head to to in another classic, amazing round of 7 series that I can't wait for!!!
Yea im a Clippers fan but I have a lot of respect to Lakers fans cause obviously they won more 16 titles I think while the Clippers never won one yet. But I have faith that you guys will win another championship
Sorry for the bad English
Russel Tayson i can understand your feelings. Cz i come to see it by the same reason. keep healthy, go lakers.

Kobe bryant
Kobe dickriders give no respect to Pau or Shaq
Pau was a big factor in this!! Much love to him💕
Factz with out him it was over
pau is playing great here, he is a really good center but now he is older, he is not what he used to be
Damn...I was at my 8th grade end of year awards when this game was on...I got home and remember rushing to turn onto abc and it was end of 3rd quarter....gives me chills seeing Kobe extremely focused and intense
They got favored by the refs, it was so bad, Lakers should have lost this game, all those BS fouls that weren't fouls, put the Lakers on the line, unreal!
@Mrd9960 bruh don't make excuses celtics lost. They had they chance
Kobe Bryant won his fifth and final ring at the perfect time. Winning against the Celtics, at Staples Center, game 7, leaving the 2000s on top and leading the NBA into the 2010s and passing the torch to LeBron. And having the perfect final game, at home, 60 points vs Jazz, still showing his desire to be better than Michael Jordan, 60 points meaning 6-0 in the Finals vs also against the Jazz. Both hit game winners vs Jazz. He was just incredible at what he did.
Checked out vs. Utah with 4.1 on the clock, passes away at 41.
Kobe jersey number 24 and his lil girl Gigi wore number 2...24+2=26...they passed away 1/26!

This is the best defensive display on a Game 7 Finals. Bruh both teams are willing to die just to win.
Soopafly nba is not like this anymore believr that
LeBron’s in 2016 was just as good, if not better. When he blocked Iguodala like that, you know he was willing to die to win.
Best defense? They only showed a couple blocks and Kobe shootimg very contested shots.
Ernesto Diaz this is only the highlights not the whole game..watch the whole game instead of yelling your ass in a youtube comment without knowing the whole detail

This was a great series. I loved watching the big guys battle inside.
For all the people saying "Kobe didn't deserve Finals MVP" just because his shot was cold in Game 7 completely ignore the fact that no one really shot well that game (look it up), his index finger was injured, and he also impacted the game in other ways like defense, rebounding and getting to the foul line. And it's called "Finals MVP," not Game 7 MVP. Before Game 7, Kobe was shooting 43.2% from the field, 37.5% from 3, and 93.3% from the line. That's great efficiency playing against great defense in the NBA Finals against a team with arguably 4 All Stars. I'm also not even including his great averages when it comes to points, rebounds, steals, assists, etc...
Kobe also scored 10 points in the 4th quarter in game 7, highest in the 4th quarter
And he had 16 rebounds as a guard. He deserved every bit of that FMVP
Lakers have arguably 5 all stars. They are on par
warriors will crushed these celtics and lakers
Inday Garutay warriors wouldn’t last with this defense played game 7 or the 00’s
Watching this and Still feel like Kobe is alive.
Kobe's last field goal in this game was a pull up jumper towards the elbow...Kobe's last field goal in his final game was a pull up jumper towards the elbow...
Then to have Lamar outlet the ball ahead to Kobe to run out the clock...and then to have Kobe be the one to outlet the ball to Clarkson to seal the win for his farewell...
Amazing.
💯🔥

Kobe didn’t have the best scoring night of his life. But any basketball fan can see he was still far and away the best player on the floor that night. He flat out refused to lose this game.
To tell the truth that night Gasol was the best by far, probably It was the worst Game of Kobe. But even when it was his worst game he was really important to win that night, that shows that he was absolutely the best basketball player
Kobe never gave up, missing shots but played his heart out on defence. Actually it was the clutch play of Metta World Peace (Ron Artest) really wanted that first and only championship who stepped his game up. Pau Gasol was the rebounding machine.
Statistically it was a rough slog of a match for every player on both teams. It was a test of wills and was beautiful to watch.
@@viktorcheng2061see how many times he was at the line!? Why is that... Bc Boston was playing him tough. So when that happens you do something else and he did. Boards and he nailet his fts. Goated.

This and the 2016 Finals Game 7's were two of the most exciting finals I've ever seen.
2013 Finals Game 7 joins the ones you mentioned
Kobe beat 3 or 4 all stars on celtics and was injured goat
@@chriswalls5831 2016 warriors>2010 Celtics. And Kobe was pretty mediocre in the 2010 finals. 28 ppg with barely 40% FG percentage, 30% 3p% and only 3 apg. Legend but also a comically overrated player. He was statistically never as clutch as Lebron
@@mikemoggerson6651 hater. What's lebron's free throw % in the last 2 minutes of a game versus Kobe's? Since we want to talk clutch. What about who has the most wins in the playoffs vs 50 win teams? And who has more rings in less tries? All the stats that really matter Kobe masters. You can keep the buzzer beater statline. I'd rather have a guy knocking off top tier teams in each round of the playoffs on his way to dominate the entire league not just a conference for ten years, going to the finals 7 times and winning 5. Oh and don't forget the Lakers were down 3-2 this series and won game 6 in Boston thanks to Kobe's 38 on the road. Even in this game he was the leading scorer and rebounder on both teams. And no one but arterst shot a good % that's out of both teams. Oh and who just got another loss in the playoffs to a 50 win team??? Leswept
@@taraatkins4823 what was Kobe doing at 38? And Kobe wasn’t even the best player on his team for 3 of those 5 finals. He was hard carried by Shaq for the 3 peat Lmao. Kobe was statistically not clutch.
Still has this teary eyes and goosebumps watching this very intense game 7 finals.. RIP Kobe!!!..Thank you for all your Jordanese within you!!.. 🙏
Same! I’m over here with goosebumps and teary eyes as well. Amazing memories!
12:57 should be the design of his statue at Staples.
I agree!!!
Yessssssss
GC I concur 100% and it’s not because I said the same thing. He did the same when him and Shaq got their first ring in 01.
I agree,too.
I love this his BACK.
I think itll be the infamous Kobe fadeaway
ONE OF THE BEST SERIES OF ALL TIME.
REST IN PEACE KOBE! I remember being 9 years old sitting in front of the TV watching this game like it was just yesterday. May you rest in peace with your beautiful daughter GiGi! 🙏
Me too bro i remember watching this w mom n dad n my big brother who was the biggest kobe fan ever n laker fan and towards the end he yelled "THIS IS WHY THE LAKERS DESERVE TO WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP THIS YEAR THIS IS THEIR YEAR" AFTER kobes clutch shot
This one's a classic of this rivalry between these two dominant teams, after all these years, I still feel the chills and excitement ❤
I still wish that 2k includes these two legendary teams
They already have the 08 celtics.
SK yeah but they need 09 or 10 Lakers
I have the 09 and 10 lakers thru the dest roster
Its a legit roster my fave is the 09
SERIOUSLY, I've been screaming it for years this Lakers team should be on 2k, its one of the weirdest gaps in the otherwise great classic team lineup
10 years ago this june, last time Kobe delivered title to LA. cant believe his gone now. Thank You Kobe for all the memories! Long Live The Icon! RIP Kobe & Gigi
This comment is for ALL the idiots who say "Kobe didn't deserve Finals MVP."
Kobe's averages in the 2010 NBA Finals up until Game 7:
• 30 Points Per Game
• 7 Rebounds Per Game
• 4.2 Assists Per Game
• 2.5 Steals Per Game
• 1 Block Per Game
• 44% FG%
• 37% 3P%
• 93% FT%
And most people that try to discredit his Game 7 performance don't even realize that he still played great defense, GOT 15 REBOUNDS AS A SHOOTING GUARD, and got to the line plenty while being very clutch and efficient. Kobe knew his shoot wasn't falling, so he used his diverse skillset and basketball I.Q to impact the game in other ways to help his team win, that's called greatness! And on top of that, EVERYONE on both teams shoot poorly in Game 7. And in addition, Kobe also had a fractured finger on his shooting hand. I find it funny how all haters can say is "Kobe shot 6-24" without acknowledging or mentioning ANY of these facts.
In short, people should do their research and learn a thing or two about the game of basketball before trying to diminish Kobe's greatness in the 2010 Finals.
Haters only see one bad game 😅
I never knew kobe have basketball I.Q that way bricks shot is that basketball I.Q ?
Androssi Zahard your IQ is not that good.
Victor Oladipo that's an understatement
GTFOH Kobe shot 6-24 and grabbed 15 rebounds almost all defensive ones while gasol shot 6-16 and grabbed 18 rebounds (9 offensive). What i want to say with this is that kobe wasn't alone. He had gasol (hof lock), shooters like artest and odom, a x-factor like fisher and the most important one... Vujacic. (Kobe deserved the FMVP)
UA-cam is like a time machine for everything! Sports, Music, News, Memories, History, and all of the above! I miss Kobe & Gianna Bryant:( May they rest in peace & be remembered forever!! God bless!! Make World Peace!
Ima die hard CELTICS fan but damn I Can't believe he's Retiring tonight .. THUMBS UP FOR THE GREATEST LA LAKERS PLAYER OF ALL TIME !
Yep
+Sir Charles Well, Magic said Kobe is the greatest ever to wear purple and gold but I think he just didn't consider himself.
+Miles Edgeworth and Kobe said west is the greatest laker? what's your point? they just say that to seem humble
+RogerWare Inc. True
he's not the greatest, but he is top 5 lakers of all time
Rest In Peace to the G.O.A.T 😔 remember watching this with my dad when I was 10 so much excitement didn’t know how much this game meant
Look how low the score was. Defence was intense
That's what I'm thinking. Also how ridiculous fouls are these days, little taps get you sent to the line. Crazy how much the game changes in a 10 year span.
Anton Smith so there’s only good defense when it’s a low scoring game?
Game 7s are traditionally low scoring games. The Cavs-Warriors 2016 was 93-89, The Sixers-Raptors 2019 was 92-90, etc.
Both teams are very burnt out and they’re expected to give their 110% and then some.
theres no defense , its just a low scoring game and kobe missed a lot of shots lol just telling the truth
@@johnpaulmarquez5864 "There's no defense" Lol, no kid. Ray Allen shot 3-14, Pierce shot 5-15. Everyone was dog shit except Garnett, lmao
One of the greatest rivalry of all time... From Bird vs. Magic into the Kobe vs Pierce,Garnett and Allen era... The Lakers and Celtics was never been boring when playing against each other in the NBA finals. 🎉
Watching this game still makes me sitting on the edge of my chair. I knew the result but it feels like everything is happening in a parallel universe. In that universe, Kobe is still living happily, and basketball is still fun.
Look at the score, my goodness. I miss old school basketball.
When they scored it was meaningful
Defense is the key.. multiple blocked shots.. neither lakers or the celtics wants the other to score both teams came to compete.. unlike now.. just pure offense with trash defense.. :(
Defense is competition, hard dirty work, sweat. Offense is more about imagination and chance.
Old school....?
Old school is general words mean old oldest
“The Lakers Repeat! Back To Back Titles!!!” Ill always remember that moment. So nostalgic 7th Grade Going on to 8th, man everything was easier. RIP Kobe Bean The Man The Myth The Legend
He dead though

Goodbye mamba! Dropped 60 today. Incredible.
No feeling As a Laker Fan would be matched then beating Boston in Game 7 For me. This was one of my Favorite Laker Moments
True, i cried when they lost to the celtics in game 6 2 years before this happened. A sweet revenge
agree
Daniel Barwatt man I was a Cs fan back then I hated the lakers with a passion I cried after this game because Boston had control over this game majority of the time
very sweet revenge,that was awesome
Celtics 6 game series win is still better than Lakers' in 2010.
In my opinion, the 2010 NBA finals will go down as the greatest NBA Finals of the 21st century. No one will ever touch that greatness of a series ever.
Pumpkin GuineaPig but the thing is, it doesn't had that iconic moment like other finals have. 98' had "The Shot". 2016 finals had "The Block". This game had what? "The freethrows" ???? Kobe and the crew got bailed out by the refs in this game to be honest. Its good for the business though so I'm not blaming NBA, Lakers was the most beloved team back then....
2016 Finals were way better. You had the block, game 5 Lebron and Kyrie both going for 40, back to back 40 point games by Lebron, the shot with a minute left in game 7 by Kyrie, etc...etc.....
Only really memorable moment of 2010 was the shot by Artest.

Seth Doty not even close. 2013 & 2016 were definitely better
Seth Doty absolutely!! I remember it so vividly. Two rivals going at it.
Chris Butler that made be true but this was the last true physical nba finals with tons of defense in it before all these rules started to come in the league
Straight the fuck up.
Seth Doty real talk!!!! Was the best insane how they were both tied up and just going back and forth like crazy I will always remember watching this 2009-2010 finales man it was the best like you said
This is one of the greatest series of all time! It makes it so much sweeter since it was against the Celtics! So much tension and physicality throughout the whole game. This is something we'll never see again.
Unless the 2019 NBA finals is Lakers vs Celtics. LeBron vs Kyrie. How cool would that be!

It was ten years ago but seems like yesterday!
Go lakers!!!
Yessir
Yo
Kobes legacy is amazing and the crowd sounds good
Say what you will but mj and LeBron won titles multiple ones as an underdog without homecourt in the finals...they both did it twice vs superior teams ...Kobe never did...he had 1 finals where his team didnt have the better record and he lost by 39 ...he was on the better team usually....LeBron has been on the less superior team 6 times out of 8...
Mj and lebron were both in the leastern conference.
Asmosis Jones bull fucking shit... Lebron was the under dog only in 2007 and maybe 2015 but that was due to irving & love being injured., you mean to tell me a team with wade, bosh & lebron were underdogs? To dirk and jason terry? Or how about a 37 year old duncan a 32 year old parker and a 35 year old ginobli. 2016 they weren't underdogs the teams were evenly matched irving, love, lebron vs curry, Thompson, green.. Stop it your drunk. ( p.s records dont count for shit in the nba.. ) everybody in there right mind knew jordan and who ever he played with in the 90's were the better team despite the record how dare you say jordan was an underdog, and dont give me that whole bad boy piston bull shit.. They were already old and done after they won back to back hence why jordan beat thomas 11 times in a row.. ( also malone & Stockton were never better then jordan, kukoc, rodman, pippen ) neither was charles barkley, or shawn kemp & gary payton.. There's a reason jordan was 6-0 in the finals.. Dont sit here and act like kobe didnt have to battle his way thru tough opponents to earn his rings, especially 2000-2002 dude had to battle the spurs, blazers, kings ( especially the kings they went several game 7's if it werejt for a crooked ref the lakers might have only won twice in that era.. Kobe in this series had to battle 3 hall of famers an all star rondo and another great player named wallace.. That 2010 celtic team was stacked as fuck.. If anything lebrons had it easy as fuck to get to the finals.. Theres a reasom he has a losing record against teams in the west..
Asmosis Jones nigga u stupid Lebron had a super team Bosh wade Ray Allen then with Love and Kyrie the only time kobe had a super team was him and Shaq this team was mostly just role players maybe pau was super star but rest was just role players kobe dueled a big 4 and won
Shot 6 of 24 this game. He's lucky his team saved him.
Such a roller coaster season for the lakers this year, i will never forget this moment one of the most happiest moments of my life:)
When I was 5 this inspired me live
+DrizzleTV especially the ending
This was the most painful game I have ever watched. I'm a die hard Celtics fan and this game crushed me. This year we are in the Finals, hopefully we get to win the championship this season.
I remember watching this as a teenager, this series was INSANE
EVERY SINGLE POSSESION COUNTED IN THIS SERIES .the team who had more rebounds ,won every single game ! Kobe was cold from the field but he laid everything out on that court! He grabbed 16 boards against that beast of a celtics team because he knew the Lakers needed as many chances to score as possible .he impacted the game in so many other ways that people refuse to notice! defensive intensity, rebounds, making clutch decisions down the stretch and getting to the line to put points on the board with a broken finger on his shooting hand and bone spurs in his ankle ! He could barely walk and was getting shots in between games ! My nigga did everything possible to help his team win and ofc shout out to Pau and the rest of the boys who played their heart out and got us this W ! Thanks for the memories and clutch ass performance!
@My dudes My dudes I praise Kobe for never giving up and and not hiding from the big moments no matter how badly hes shooting he always believed in himself. Lebron is a pussy.nobody talking about him.
@@aje2321 lebron does the same in the finals, even at a higher rate than kobe. He gets more points rebounds steals assists and blocks thank 24 in the finals. His teammates just don't deliver when it matters most, unlike fish, gasol, artest. 25-yo Vujacic scored 2 FT's in a game 7 in the NBA finals but veteran George Hill couldnt do the same in a game 1.
Watching in 2019, probably my favorite finals series. Time flies!
Fisher is to goated how his shot flies in the air and knows it’s straight butter from the 3 or 2
Kobe’s footwork was so special, it’s what made him more great.
R.I.P. Kobe
This was truly a great finish to a great era in basketball!
Man time fly. 10 years ago feel like yesterday. RIP BEAN BRYANT
