Absolutely, because he said that’s exactly who he was trying be better than…Kobe never side stepped comparisons or try to be nice about it…he flat out challenged Mike. That’s why MJ respected him so much.
Maybe Jordan, but not Kobe. It’s weird because Kobe at his best was about as good as anyone ever, but he was inconsistent compared to other all time greats. Especially in the postseason.
@@youtubegm8256, you are wrong NBA players are going to disagree with you about Kobe, Kobe is top 3 for me and Kobe was better in the playoffs especially the finals than lebron and some have him as the goat, Kobe is the most skilled player ever and he was a all time great defender, only MJ and wilt I have above Kobe but after this video he's number 2, I've never seen anyone like MJ or Kobe or hakeem or shaq
I grew up in Southern California didn't miss a game! Kcal 9 every single game! Kobe was Spectacular every single night was thrilling! I can't believe the disrespect he gets! I can't believe he isn't even in thr conversation for Goat in alot of these clowns eyes! That's because the league and the media hated on him so damn bad! How does this man have only 1 fucking mvp!? Smh
I watched his last game at home, with a couple of beers at my side. My wife fell asleep on the couch in the 2nd quarter, and awoke to me drunk and silently crying in my chair late in the 4th.
Facts. I was born 90 Kobe was our mj I seen mj play some games but kobe I witness it all the up the dowms kobe found a way to win and Worked his ass off. I'm a kobe fan but for my list I have Mj Kareem then kobe respectfully but kobe my goat him and iverson
And this is why I wonder how people can skip over Kobe and compare Lebron n Jordan like Kobe was just some wanna be scrub version of Jordan🤦. Great video bro. I know you love Lebron but ur the kind of Lebron fan that I can have a real conversation about basketball. Side note: Jordan n Kobe was elite passers also. Lebron n Magic wasn't the only ones🤷
Cause people slow as hell lol personally I say Kobe is the goat only because I didn’t watch mike and being a Kobe hater when I first started watching basketball then to go from a hater to a die hard fan all because of his work ethic and mindset
@@migoslimatl8 I feel you bro. I was old enough to watch Jordan's 2nd repeat and Kobe's whole career. The closest to them was T-Mac before his knees gave out.
@@migoslimatl8 Big facts. This generation of Bronsexuals don't get it. They believe numbers tell you everything. But if ur numbers don't equal wins then what impact did you have on the game? I mean this year is just another reason I will never mention Bron in the same conversation of GOAT. He ran my Lakers into the ground😤. Kobe would've kicked his ass if he was still here💯💯💯
@@jaymillz7732 hell yea, and people gone say well when Kobe was ending his career with the lakers they were terrible, well one Kobe didn’t have the talent Lebron have given some hurt and old but ill take this roster over the roster Kobe had, plus Kobe was hurt most of the time.
Can you believe the argument is “Lebron is better than Jordan” younger people don’t even talk about Kobe. I was not a Kobe fan, just respected his great game. but I’m still shocked by that.
Kobe is hands down the second greatest player ever after Jordan and I'm not even a Kobe fan. But I keep it real, despite not being a Kobe fan, I can still recognize his greatness as an epic player. Jordan and Him are number 1 & 2 respectively. Lebron is not better than any one of them.
Many players aren't afraid of Bron, in fact its the other way around, LeBron is scared of certain players. Remember the 2014 Nba finals when young Kawhi leonard walks back on the court and lebron gets scared? Or how about around 2013 against the Pacers when Lebron was scared to drive in on Roy Hibbert? How quickly people forget. And lebron was terrified of Kobe, everytime Kobe came up court to play iso on Lebron, lebron would call for a double team. Nobody is scared of defending lebron, in the 2011 nba finals small ass jj barea was D'ing him up. In the 2013 nba finals the spurs left him wide open cause they didn't fear his shot.
Remember Kobe told people how he was going to guard LeBron in that All-Star game. He mentioned pushing him a certain direction and he blocked him a couple times and didn’t let lebron do much when he was guarding him.
Preciate you bro! It’s only one more Kobe video you need to do “all 36 Kobe game winners” I stg it’s worth it he’s the most clutch player to ever live. RIP
Weird how he didn’t know anything about Kobe. Makes me wonder how many of these LeBron fans that dis Kobe have even watched him or know anything about his game. Props to this guy for researching what he didn’t know
As a kid I watched and loved MJ, even had his poster on my wall, as he destroyed my Knicks but I grew into a man while watching Kobe. He'll forever be my favorite hooper. He was an assassin on the floor. #RIPBean
8 was crazy, but 24 was scary. If you like reading, Gerald Henderson wrote an article for the Player's Tribune about the first time he met Kobe.. It's called "There's Something Wrong With The Rim." The title is literally the first words Kobe ever said to him.. It's a great read and one hell of a Kobe story.
Thank you for that story. Never heard it before. It's legendary. Check my page for a few Kobe videos and his synchronized connection with Michael Jordan
It’s simple. For me only 2 players have their name associated with greatness that transcends their sport. MJ has the “I want to be like Mike” and KOBE has the “Mamba mentality”. That will be around forever!!!!!!!!!!!! GOAT 1. MJ 2. KOBE 3. Then the discussion can begin.
My favorite player of all time. Everybody says his game is identical to MJ but imo you can see a little bit of all the greats WITH counter moves/reverses. This man was Basketball personified.
10:14 im not sure if you are aware but this shot was to send the game to OT and the following shot was the game winner in that OT...last game of the season to secure the #2 seed and knock those blazers out of the playoff picture...so cold
The second best offensive player to touch the ball. EVEE, way better then lbj will ever be.. ever.. totally different work ethic, more like MJ, Bru u gotta watch his last game the whole game. Smartest player after MJ,
Hopefully you see now that there have been multiple players that were better than lebron. Lebron is great. But the media built him up as this generations MJ to sell the NBA to the new generation. But the footage you see of these players doesn’t lie.
I was a Jr and Sr in high school playing when Kobe went to 3 straight. Losing in 08 then back to back in 09 and 10.. he gave me so much motivation. The reason I became a Lakers fan in early 2000s.. Thank you Mamba. We miss you
Sleep in peace Kobe. The baby GOAT in my mind, How blessed and spoiled are we to have seen Magic and Bird, MJ, Kobe and LeBron back to back to back to back?
Ok 7:20 you need to watch that clip again, look up kobe reverse on christie or something like that...the blow by and finish are both beautiful, underrated play there
@@Salty_Vet You proved yourself to be a newbie. Just stop. You can hear the color commentators call Harold Minor that. MJ ended that once they faced off each other.
Just subscribed, love the videos. I have Kobe and Jordan tier one all time best players. You can argue best scorer ever, defender ever (both tied 1st team all defense 9x) and overall player ever for both. Should do video for kobe's last game, jazz needed game and lakers did not. he shot 50% all tough shots after alllllll the injuries for just one night. Mamba Out
Kobe once played an entire game shooting only with his left hand and scored something like 27pts. #8 was a scorer but #24 was an assassin and closer !!!
Pretty sure you're thinking of Larry Bird. Kobe did try it after injuring his right arm in a game (definitely showed his will to win), but not for the whole game. His coach pulled him so he wouldn't get hurt even worse.
I watched a video the other day that Ron Artest said “Kobe and MJ were stronger than Lebron and himself.” I wouldn’t have thought that, but those are 2 250 lb’er’s against 2 215-220 lb’er’s.
As a lifelong Lakers fan I got to watch the lakers if the 80's with Magic and the lakers with Shaq and up till Kobe's retirement, I watched every game over his 20 years and can say with confidence that Kobe was the greatest to ever lace them up
Man, Kobe was an absolute dog. He got his game from Jordan, got his advise from Jordan, and proved that Jordan's game is still superior in the modern NBA. People ask if LeBron is greater than Jordan but they forget... he couldn't beat Kobe, Jordan's disciple. I tell people this all the time: If you ever wonder if your favorite player is better than Jordan and could be the goat... remember... you're still comparing them to Jordan. If they can be compared, they are not. the. GOAT. - RIP Kobe Bean Bryant! Mamba Forever
Look, when I saw the title, I thought you'd be surprised by Kobe's highlights, but the moment I heard you say "Kobe was bangin???" I knew I was in for a treat! Kobe is one of the greatest skywalker's and posterizers of all time, bro. I'm sure you learned so in this video!
Keep doing a great job youngster and this is why most NBA players put Kobe 2nd to Jordan because they both have the same mental toughness and killer instinct and willing to do whatever it takes to win and let’s not forget Kobe studied everything about Jordan
been watched him since 2000, his games were different, totally different. Back to that era, Ko, Tmac, VinceCarter, AI, KG, Timmy, Shaq, DirkNovi, JasonKidd, badboys version2. man, good old days
That reverse and that turn around are actually Jordan’s. Kobe copied all Jordan’s moves. And I say that as a compliment. While Jordan developed the most elite set of both offensive and defensive skills/moves from the basic fundamentals Kobe identified MJ’s game as the most perfect and deliberately set out to duplicate it and out of literally millions of people around the world and hundreds of players in the NBA who wanted “to be like Mike” is not only the ONLY ONE EVER to succeed (excluding a very few that are simply not humanly possible without MJ’s wingspan and hand size and including several that SHOULDNT be possible without them) he’s the only one ever to successfully duplicate ANY of Jordan’s skills/moves. It is just as laughable for Lebron to be considered above Kobe as it is for him to be considered above Jordan. Aside from anything else, no flop queen should EVER be spoken of in the GOAT conversation.
Fr like I appreciate this dude taking time out to watch older players, and I like his channel. But I’ve seen a lot of these “Lebron fan” reaction videos, and it seems like most of them only have knowledge of basketball through the lens of Lebron. Outside of his career it’s like nothing else exists 😂🤦♂️
I love Kobe the player and miss him as an inspirational leader for his generation. Nothing against LeBron or his fan base. It's possible to like both of them. Kobe however will always be my pesonal favorite.
Idk why i watched this shit again. I remember when Kobe got drafted and i remember that final game. It's crazy although a 76er fan, he'll always be a top 3 for me. Tears instantly at the end
When he said who needs a teammate it reminded me of a story and I’ll tell it. One day all of Kobe’s teammates went up to Shaq and asked him to talk to Kobe bc they were mad that Kobe wasn’t pass the ball. So shaq says he’ll talk to Kobe. Then of course shaq went to talk to Kobe and said hey man the team feels your not passing enough and that there’s no I in team. So Kobe responds with your right by there’s a fucking me in it
Kobe was just a different breed. The only player besides MJ who said they were going to accomplish something and actually do it. LeBron might have the longevity and stats, but he never gave me that dominating the whole league type of energy. MJ/Kobe were legendary players.
Kobe had to be a kung fu master on the court because he didn’t have the luxury of being 6’9 270 pounds of muscle. He did this shit at 6’6 205, his technique was masterful. I never seen Lebron do half the shit Kobe did on that court
Even when his father, "Jelly" Bean Bryant, was playing for the Sixers, Kobe was a Lakers fan......and I guaranty you that his passing was inspired by watching endless hours of video tapes of Magic and the "Showtime" Lakers of the 1980s!
The way he was surprised at most of these things shows that most bronsexuals are ignorant...they don’t know what type of a beast this man was. Closest thing to Mike and you think Bron a better player than him?
2nd best I’ve ever seen play…. Everybody wanted to be like Mike but only one truly did it 👏🏽🙌🏽
That’s the best way I’ve seen it put.
Absolutely, because he said that’s exactly who he was trying be better than…Kobe never side stepped comparisons or try to be nice about it…he flat out challenged Mike. That’s why MJ respected him so much.

Even Jordan admits that Kobe was his clone. I think Kobe actually beats Jordan with his spin moves
rip kobe. We miss you!
The first and last shots of his carrier was at the at free throw line.
He started and ended the same way.
There's a reason why Kobe was the only player MJ mentored. Kobe #2
Even when his father, "Jelly" Bean Bryant, was playing for the Sixers, Kobe was a Lakers fan......and I guaranty you that his passing was inspired by watching endless hours of video tapes of Magic and the "Showtime" Lakers of the 1980s!
kobe!kobe!kobe!kobe!
He had the warrior mentality like his big brother mike.
Let's keep it 💯...if Kobe would have gotten CP3 in his prime...the Kobe LBJ talk would be dead. BC Kobe would have at least six chips!!!
Kobe second all time man
People calling him a ball hog when he's 1st in assists, over all shooting guards of all time in NBA history.
Best player ever
Should react to one of the NBA fight compilations
The way he was surprised at most of these things shows that most bronsexuals are ignorant...they don’t know what type of a beast this man was.
Closest thing to Mike and you think
Bron a better player than him?
Kobe the only player that has two numbers retired. They split up his #8 and #24, the man had two HOF careers with EACH number!
So many of these plays are exact blueprints of MJ
John Stockton. Best Pure PG Ever.
Relevancy?
