You can hear a kid say, "Go Kobe!" at 5:16. And then Kobe goes on to make that infamous assist. That's so wonderful to know that a kid felt hope, passion, and courage when they saw Kobe Bryant play. To admire and be inspired like that, to be so innocent... To have a hero. Someone to love and cheer for. That is truly beautiful.....
Yea I was a kid that time I fell in love with basketball cuz of Kobe me and my friends we would sleep with basketball and wake up with it we had a court in our building we would play all day and on every shot was Kobe Kobe every move is Kobe I loved him i love basketball it’s all cuz of Kobe his the best
Totally bro i get the same feeling when kyrie irving takes over ball games on my command lol I remember in the 02-03 season when Lakers they were down about 30 to Dallas and they did the magical comback, but to take the leading shot with under a minute left, was the courageous kobe with the crowd CRAVING for the comeback to be complete. Nobody else even dared to want the rock. And to their respect, nobody else but kobe shuddve had it!
Thank you Kobe, it was great being a Lakers fan for those 20 years. You brought us 5 chips and 5 parades to downtown L.A.. I remember this one, thousands celebrated in front of Staples Center afterwards. You will always be L.A.'s son. Love ya man. Rest in paradise.
Being real. I lived in LA love the Beach and Mountains the weather my brother lives there. at that time love watching the real Lakers but now I don't watch them anymore sad team they are they about money 💰 not winning .

@@JahleelX-xx9wd tssss another reason of a hater. Kobe played a great defense against Iverson period. Iverson wasn't playing better and his teammates were filling those holes and you're saying Iverson doesn't have someone to help? Shut those crap comments and just accept that Kobe played better defense and offense. HATER!
After watching this, I now realized what Kobe meant when he said if Shaq had his work ethic, he'd be the greatest of all time. Shaq was around 28-30 during the three peat which mean he hit his prime in Nba years. Kobe was 21-23 during the three peat, which means he wasn't even in his prime yet. If you can see in this video, you'll recognize that Shaq's post hook and floater was actually almost unguardable because he was so big and strong so when he backs you down, he takes the air out of you. As he digressed in later years, he could've developed into a Kareem like post player that no matter what you do, you wouldn't be able to stop him. Not that he didn't have work ethic, but he didn't have the work ethic it took to be the greatest ever. On the other hand, Kobe was eerily similar to MJ and hadn't even really reached his peak, yet no one was able to stop him. He was literally the second coming of MJ with a Dominant low post player in Shaq. Kobe had the work ethic it took to be the greatest ever. I know their relationship with each other wasn't the best but could you imagine Kobe and Shaq with 100% chemistry and friendship ? They would've never lost. Kobe saying if Shaq had his work ethic he'd be the greatest ever is almost an understatement because Shaq would've won at least one more FInals Mvp as he aged and then he wouldve become the second best player on the team as Kobe rose to the occasion. How do I know this? From 04-07, even though the Lakers didn't have a team around Kobe, it was very obvious that Kobe was the best player in basketball at the time. If you put Shaq right back unto that team, they're instant championship contenders. With Shaq skillfully developing into a Kareem like player, and Kobe developing into an MJ like player, along with Phil Jackson implementing the triangle, how could they ever lose? Both would be undisputed 1-2 greatest players who ever lived so Kobe was absolutely right. SN: Please read carefully and consult your opinion below so we can have civil conversation on this.
You know i been saying this for years but no one other than people who are fans of Kobe/That Early Lakers Team agrees. If Shaq honestly was more in shape and didnt do things like waiting until the season to get surgery so he doesnt mess up his summer, or waiting until mid season to really be in basketball conditioning. Then they wouldve worked perfectly fine. Kobe was ready to take over around 2003-2004 but Shaq was kind of being head strong and still carrying the mentality that im the Big Dog. Meanwhile They wouldve honestly never lost that detroit series if Malone wasnt in and out the line up during the playoffs due to injury.. and Kobes ego at that point was on some F it ill do it myself. I would want to see a documentary on that 3 peat.
Early 2000s Life was different. I'm forever nostalgic about culture, people, fashion, celebrity, TV programming, sports & sports figures, sports rivalries, felow sports fans, the announcers across all tv/radio media, and existence in general back then...
Sad thing is what people don't understand is how much gravity Shaq and Kobe had as a pair. I see people act like Shaq had the defense's attention and Kobe hit open shots like a role player when that couldn't be further from the truth. Every time he touched the ball teams would throw multiple bodies at him, Blazers did this, Kings did this, Sixers did this, Nets did this, Spurs played him one on one a bit more with Bowen but I bet even Bowen would tell you it's impossible to guard him 1v1. Warriors have all this spacing and shooters which is fine and dandy but Shaq and Kobe together could attack any kind of defense with insane amounts of pressure on them, they played in a more physical era too.
Wow Kobe was just insane his just something else no one played beautiful as him only Jordan and Kobe they just straight Mamba this game took me way back I was 14 years old I never missed a game our building was shaking when lakers was playing 😂❤️ my Kobe my lakers for ever
@@mannyfresh5909 Kobe didn't have to score more than 30pts he did but he didn't have to because he had Shaq Fisher Fox Horry and Shaw that can score and make plays he was running the offense that why he was avg 6asst 5reb 1.2 steal almost 2blk a game he blocked AI four times in the finals almost a triple double in game four in a blowout not only offensely but defensively.

Kobe and Shaq know how to win. Thanks, Kobe we love you for the moments, the in-between moments when we thought you we're going to make it happen, thank you. You're one in a million diamond in the rough. All Kobe, just the way we all like it. R.I.P. Kobe and Gigi, R.I.P.
Im 33 now i recall watching this gane like it was yesterday this was REAL BASKETBALL. You either had skill or you did not. Never be another Kobe or A.I ever!!!!!!!!!!
Kobe se extraña tanto . La NBA no será nunca lo mismo sin el cada juego de Lakers lo veía con emoción y ver sus como jugaba Kobe me inspiraba . Mi ídolo . Mamba forever.....
I think so. The difference is the media and NBA wasn't paid to drool over and cover for Kobe like they did MJ. They were paid to disrespect and tear Kobe down. Still didn't stop the Black Mamba.
A lot of important people in my life during this time is now gone... watching this brought back so many memories of my loved ones I love and miss you guys so much...thank you for the video...Rest In Paradise all my Loved ones I love you Pops
You can see Kobe’s dedication and willingness to win. The man would do anything to win. Also, although he runs the most in the court, yet he does not get tired. His stamina is hella strong. It is like you are running from your fears, you won’t stop and you won’t get tired because you are really not paying attention to the energy you are consuming.
Horace Grant and Ron Harper do not get enough credit. They were involved in 4 and 5 title winning teams in the 90s/early 2000s. These were guys who played their role and added experience and talent. Its not a coincidence they played alongside MJ and Kobe and were trusted.
I know the the passing of kobe will always be a struggle for people to get over but I think it’s best to remember him as one of the best and to not forget him and I know for people like his family and people that were close to him but I also I think it’s good he went out as one of the best In history
Every time watch these games from the past I really appreciate the basketball played. today's game players aren't challenged as they were than or the defenses aren't as intense and smothering. this era is all about the three and playing without contact.
I literally just watched Shaq go against Kobe three championship straight while carrying them but pretty much give away the MVP 2 times because he cared more for Shaq. Shaq realized how much he needed Kobe in the end of this Sixers run and that’s why he said “I love you Kobe” in that interview after Game 4 I believe it was with Kobe. It’s a shame How many players hated on Kobe because he really was better than MJ.
