2009 Western Conference Semifinals Game 3, May 8, 2009 | The small rivalry between the Lakers and Rockets began to intensify following a very physical game 2 that featured two ejections and five technical fouls. Both teams entered game 3 in Houston looking to take a 2-1 lead in the series, and the physicality continued. The leading scorer for the Rockets was Ron Artest who scored 25 points and pulled down 6 rebounds after being ejected in game 2. Kobe followed up a stellar game 2 with 33 more points in game 3 to go along with 6 boards, 2 steals and 3 blocks. The Lakers led nearly the whole way through and pulled away in the 4th to win 108-94 in the Toyota Center, taking the 2-1 series lead.

I remember this Ron Artest. This was when McGrady got injured and he carried this team
Artest was amazing in this series
Yep. Although he played his role well with the Lakers, they should've allowed him to do more. He seemed disinterested at times. He was clutch in game 7 of the finals when Kobe had a horrible game.
@@greganderson1445 What else could he have done that would've resulted in better results? They won a ring, lol. The reason they even got Artest was to replace Ariza (their 3&D) because his agent was stupid
@@cottonmather8146 from then on his offense became more and more offensive because he was just to play D. It worked that first season, I'm just saying they could have loosened his leash just a little more.
they were amazing when TMac is not playing
Damn Kobe had Ron & Shane taking turns guarding him and he still went off 🔥🔥
And they 4 and 5 in dpoy in voting that year
Kobe was such a beast man
Yes sir and they were one of the best defenders in the league at that time
Lebron would’ve folded
@@Jaykurosakii naw
Kobe was a beast and I can't believe he gone😢😢
Same here,, that’s crazy
This guy wuzz the best shootn guard ever. Hand's up man down
Jordan is
@Ken Rascon I wrote this 4 months ago fool
Apparently neither are you so what's your point. You are on this shit just like the rest of us.
my gosh Kobe was unstoppable those days.
Тарас Арбузов he's the greatest player for a reason
dude... shane battier and ron artest defense. he still was unstoppable
That hand in the face defense was useless..... always go for the shoot on a shooter.
telj1 your right but nobody is getting this kobes shot . Kobes arguable the best scorer ever ... if kobe wouldve started his first 2 years instead of going ti a loaded team if he had played right off the bat he would prob have alot more records
Jordan's a much prolific and efficient scorer than Kobe.
That Kobe jump shot to beat the the clock...... Ridiculous
FROM DEEEEP
🔥🔥
That's the same shot he hit that knocked Portland out of the playoffs the last year that he played with Shaq.
Broken finger three straight finals 🐐
marco Ot factsss tho
marco Ot no resting and sitting out games neither...let’s not forget that
Going thru the WEST
LeBron broken hand. Time to change teams
@@judahisrisingyahschosen9481 yeah the 2010 all star game 🌟
watching this shit in 2017 really makes me miss watching someone like kobe playing in the nba
ieatfish too these days' NBA is way too soft
💔
*KOBE IS UNSTOPPABLE AND REMEMBER HE'S PLAYING WITH A BAD FINGER IN THAT SEASON*
#GOAT
You sir are incorrect
You sir are not supportive
“Bad Finger” more like *Broken finger
Anti Sjw Kobe played with a lot of serious injuries too.
Kobe plays 48 minutes with serious injuries, nhl shifts are usually a minute or less. Kobe played with a bone spur in his ankle during the finals, players would injure him on purpose. There was tons of nhl players out this season for way less serious injuries.
Mark Jackson "It should be a crime being that good." Love it!
damn that half court shot...the way he moved without the ball to catch it against arguably the best on ball defender in the game..its always the little things that make players great.
That was a harder Steph shot before Steph
Miss that saying when Kobe use to make those tough plays “mama there goes that man” shees what a line
Hell yea man!! He resurrected that line
Seeing Kobe at game and video game still a heartbreaking to me . . . Kobe was a legendary player I always choose Lakers over Chicago Bulls in NBA 2K18 on Xbox 360 - Still can't believe it since he died . . . still can't but trying to move on but not forgotten - He was a great father . . . Rest in Peace Kobe and Gigi ♡
Kobe = GREATNESS
This was my favorite one on one back and forth moment of Kobe's career. Artest was like facing a Grizzly Bear as a physical presence. The way Kobe didnt back down physically and delivered daggers to back up his talk. That was fun. Also Battier is one of the players who IMO made Kobe bring out his best games.
5:10 What a shot by Bryant and look at Kobe's reaction.
That’s the reaction of “I do this everyday” 😂
Right before, the fans chant, “Kobe Sucks”
Watch Kobe on 5:03 . He was heavily locked up by Ron Artest off the ball, Look at Kobe's Unbelievable footwork to get thru Ron Artest.
Kobe beat harder defense than Jordan and lebron spurs who had 2nd best in NBA history he tore up. Bowen, battier, artest, melo, pippen etc why he's goat
Man I miss watching Kobe as a kid... so god damn cold .. thank good for Kobe Bryant
5:08
Holy Fuck Kobe's shots never stop impressing me
RIP Mamba
No one want to talk about the fact Kobe had 2 all defensive first team guy switching on him and a DPOY guy gaurding and STILL COOKING !🔥🔥🔥❤️ OMG KOB! Damn I miss his game ! The NBA ain’t the same without guys like Kobe and MJ
Hopefully SGA can be somewhat close to those guys ,I know he will never be as good as Kobe and MJ but he got the blue print
That three at the end of the third period was one of the greatest "Eff You" moments I've ever seen.
Shane Battier was getting rocked by Kobe every play lol. Kobe got that Hof shot in traffic, he can shoot over 3 people. Legend.
He could legit shoot over three people almost every play and still hit for the nba average or above.
Kobe going up against 2 of the best one on one defenders in this series. RIP MAMBA
My God!!!! Kobe was a Beast!!!!
Dj MikeC never missed.🌺🌺🌺
I like how the NBA had perfect amount of defense allowed during 2007-2012 , they became soft , now they call anything a foul
Defense destroys cashcows superstars.
Klay,Steph < points than draymond in game 7 finals.
The league destroying the game
YES! The league was PERFECTLY officiated during this time. Playoffs still got a little physical and they actually called travels🤣🤣
@@jakerojas4942 bro the reason why defense on these guys is so hard is cuz they can pull up from everywhere whenever they want. How r u supposed to guard shooters who can also attack the basket and pull up from logo sometimes?
@@tray0576 lol u literally can't touch people tho. Look at James harden.
All I know is I still cry like a baby watching kobe in any video these days. Love you kobe RIP mamba❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Few months later, Kobe Bryant and Ron Artest were teammates.
"It should be a crime being that good." 7:25 man Kobe over Lebron any day!
Ulises Luna kobes skillset offensively is ala MJ allday long
ᔕ O ᒪO ᗰ O ᑎ E better at what? Kobe is a superior offensive player and by far a better on ball defender. Did I miss another dimension?
@ᔕ O ᒪO ᗰ O ᑎ E Bullying your way to the rim, when you're bigger than most defenders, isn't skill
@ᔕ O ᒪO ᗰ O ᑎ E what's clear is that you don't know basketball too much and just jock ride Lebron... He has very limited footwork, has a limited post game, and most of his points came within 5 ft of the rim. Which means he attacks the basket for most of his points. Watching him lower his shoulder and just bully his way to the rim isn't skill. He just starting shooting jumpers in the last 3 years or so. And for you to deny that shows that you're just a serious Lebron Stan.
@@lucasmichaels2204 yeah, he actually said that dumb statement. That's how you know he's just a Lebron Stan.
OMG I feel bad who's guarding Kobe 😂
They had Ron and Shane just for Defence. Man and he still torched them up. Miss you Kobe.
Nah battier could aslo shoot good
He really was the goat, rip
Man i miss kobe its just hitting me how well never see greatness like that again or for a while who knows
This was the series that made kobe a legit gangster.
Shane was an amazing defender, as side from Jordan, I have completely respect and admiration for Kobe, I bet if Kobe broke both his hands he would find a way to play and win.
Right
man you forget how good the rockets were .....even without mcgrady, they had yao ming, prime artest and prime battier. That's an elite center and the best wing defenders in the nba. Both of them capable of d-ing up lebron
Lol keep throwing shade at lbj
They was my favorite rockets 🚀 team overall
@@LeafyPeach it ain’t shade when it’s true tho lol players were scared of Ron when he got mad lol
It is amazing how much the game changed in less than 10 years ...
Its the rules. You cant defend jumpshots like this anymore.
Travel/carrying rules. Not allowed to play defense. Throw in the fact everyone seems to play the same position now.
Ron was a handful back then too. This content is treasure 🤙
Look how beautifully his body bends when he shoots...it’s another level of beauty compared to that of shooters these days like SC
Man I miss Kobe... no one can stop him but only himself..
He’s very smooth
My god that deep 3 by Kobe! I miss him so much!
Relentless! One of a kind..his determination mix with his skills and talent..Unique individual..
Who's here for kobe?

Rip kobe...
Damn that was a stacked Houston team. Too bad tmac and Yao could never stay healthy
R.I.P To the my favorite athlete of all time Kobe Bryant and Gigi Bryant and the 7 others lost in that horrible Tragedy. 💙🙏🏽😢😭
back then the nba was amazing to watch.......................and ron artest was huge for the rockets too
"Kobe sucks! Kobe sucks!" Wins 2009 Championship, LOL
"he's not going anywhere" ... Bryant doing everything everywhere.
Kobe - the ultimate competitor, killer and closer! No doubt about it. Greatest player since Jordan period 🐐🐐🐐
Wouldn’t want to watch anyone else growing up other than KOBE BEAN FREAKIN BRYANT. Unstoppable. The greatest to ever do it. So thankful I didn’t miss out!! I missed out on the early #8 days, but I fr sure remember these. 💜💛💜💛
the good ol days. when everything wasn't a foul and they were able to compete. basketball was right up there w football during these days. now it's not close.
I will miss Kobe Bryant
Top 10 my favorite game of basketball history 💥💯🔥
artest was so good in rockets
I think Kobe can play through contact more than any star today imagine him in this spacing era
Kobe the legend R.i.P kobe🙏😭
Reliving the start of the Obama era playing this clip. I'm in MY feelings like I dont know what. I remember the times Kobe. You gave us a trillion highlights. There were only a couple of years I cheered for L.A. but I always relished in seeing Kobe showout. He was truly undeniable. I am in sincere regret that he is gone. It simply does not feel right. When the heat was on he was the Mfn Baddest and we all knew it.
RON ARTEST > METTA WORLD PEACE
On everything!
really? you don't say
This was a great series...shout out to artest, aron brooks, scola, landry, battier and others for plauing so hard after tmac and yao go out
Lowry and Chuck Hayes too
Back to back championships with that team
Kobe Bryant str8 up Killa
O eterno Mamba … que sua luz intensifique sempre!
The Best I miss you Kobe Iam Cuban but You are big and legend
I don’t want to think that you are not in life!
For me you still and your daughter live.
I love brother .
Kobe bryant mi jugador favorito Dios 😭😭😭😭💔💔💔💔😞😞😞😞😭😭😭😭💔💔💔💔💔💔😭😭😭😭😞😞😞
Best clutch scorer of all time let alone the GOAT
Watching this before Lakers vs Clippers. 3/8/20 12:13pm.
Kobe Forever! RIP, Black Mamba!
I played basketball because of you. I chose number 8 and 24 because of you. Kept playing with your shoes on. Thank you for all the impossible shots. Thank you for all the game winners. Thank you for those moments that made you the hero and the villain. Thank you for making me fall in love with basketball. Good bye Idol. Mamba out😢
Why is it every time kobe has a confrontation with somebody it's someone wounds up playing with
bobbi mason Kobe can only play with players he respects.
Matt Barnes
Kobe told Matt Barnes. Anyone crazy enough to fuck with me is crazy enough to play with me.
Clement Yang - 💯
If you faced Kobe and he saw you had no fear in doing so, you eared his respect and possibly an opportunity to be his teammate in the future.
Rip Kobe 💔🙏
Kobe Bryant monstruo Díos te tenga en su santa gloria amigo eres grande donde estés descansa en la gloria del señor
Love the track that pops in at the 5:24 minute mark; miss that stuff
I love Kobe and Ron Ron
Kobe doing that buzzer beater step range even way back
Something that makes what Kobe did in this series even more amazing is that Artest and Battier were BOTH top 5 in DPOY this season.
Kobe te recordamos siempre como uno de los mejores del baloncesto gracias por todos eso momento histórico que nosdiste 🫂🙏🏾🙏🏾
Man I miss Kobe 😢
that was a really, really good houston team. they had 3 different guys who could guard kobe and had yao guarding the basket. i would guess this matchup was harder than anyone besides the celtics in their 3 year run.
Rest in peace idol Kobe
That three on artest to close out the 3rd is just absolutely ridiculous!! Kobe was different
A year later kobe and artest won a title together...shane battier won back to back titles with the heat in 2012 and 2013....kyle lowry won a title with the raptors in 2019...rip kobe...
27.11.2021 Kobe Bryant the BEST !!!
UNSTOPPABLE
My favorite 2k team of all time the rockets with t Mac and artest
All day Kobe ! Never going to forget . Forever Kobe
Ernesto Hernandez yes, I am watching forever, my man Kobe in the Sky🌺🌺🌺🌺🌺
That boy different 🥶
I remember this like yesterday
i love Kobe
Thanks!
R.i.p kobe!!!🐍🐍🐍🐍forever
This was a scary series for the lakers!!!!
Both Artest and Battier are solid defensive players
The degree of difficulty of damn near all his shots is insane. How quick they forget.
Damn kobe. No mercy just cold blooded
Kobe and MJ was masterful with those left hand blocks
What's amazing about Artest...he's only 6'7. He's scoring in the paint on 7-footers Bynum & Gasol, 6'10 Odom too. Everyone knows his defensive prowess, but he was a very good offensive player.
He was having MVP level season during malice at the palace
this series was tuff!
👑 Kobe 🔥🔥🔥
Kobe un grande de básquetbol y Yao ming que amargo por dios. Ron puras ganas
What a front court by rockets as they got both yao ming and scola and also artest and battier in perimeter thats scary defense
Kobe is so smooth
for me this was Kobe at his peak, his last truly great year, he got it done in 2010 but it was the beginning of old man game. the year he got hurt the first time, he was really reinventing himself, evolving... too bad he got hurt
The best reaction is no reaction, mamma there goes that...what!?
This Ron Artest was a scary proposition but the shot at the end of the third...wow
