I'm 37 and was in middle school in '96 when Kobe was a rookie, and he was my idol. The way he was taken with Gigi destroys me to this day, especially now that I have an 18 m/o boy. Absolute tragedy. There will never be another one like Kobe.

From when my cousin introduced me to Kobe in 2k16 blacktop I was 100% hooked on finding out everything there was to know about the mamba, from the three-peat with shaq, to 62 in three quarters, to 81 points, to two more championships with pau gasol. When I found out about his death I just kinda sat there on my bed. I went to play 2k and saw the message on there and to this day it crosses my mind every now and then that this legend ain’t on this planet anymore. Rip to mamba and gigi.

    Man, the summer of '96 I was in my lowest. At 23 I had to give up the sport I loved most of my life and played since I was 6 cause of multiple injuries to knees, ankles, shoulder and back. I didn't want to watch, talk or think basketball, I wanted to crawl in a hole and let be. When the season started, a friend tricked me to watch a Lakers game. I was PISSED at him but he wouldn't let me leave the room. At some point in the game Kobe comes in. With his first move I got reeled back into the game. There was something about this skiny kid that made you sit down and pay attention. In the coming years I went from hating basketball back to being fully in love with it. And it was all because of Kobe. In my life I lost both my parents and my brother but the loss of Kobe somehow was the one that hurt the most. Rest in Peace Kobe and Gigi, and when the time comes I hope we can play a pickup game up in the great court in the sky.

    One of my favorite Kobe stories is from one of the girls basketball coaches from my high school. He was invited to a basketball camp his senior year of high school that Kobe also attended. At the beginning of the camp, everyone was going around doing icebreakers, including things like their name, favorite player, hometown, etc. One of these icebreakers was name one weakness in your game. Well when it came turn for Kobe to say his state his one weakness, he said "I don't have any."
    Legend. Rip Mamba.

    Honestly I feel like Kobe will always be underrated. He was a victim of his era. He based his game on the greats that came before him. Greats that built their game to capitalize on the illegal defense rule. Game that was all about the iso. Then right before he starts to enter his prime, they change the rules making it easier to double team. It took the league 10-15 years to figure out how to use pick and rolls and spacing to improve efficiency. By that time Kobe was on his way out. His numbers don’t reflect how dominant he was, because that style of play wasn’t that efficient against the modern defenses.

He was a walking highlight reel, every dribble move, every shot, every fadeaway, pump fake, jab step he gave us, was a joy to watch. That is how his greatness I defined. also I like his style of play more, I love the classic shooting guard, that was something special

That day continued to get worst when the 7 others on that plane died as well. People that day lost friends, family, people they looked forward to seeing that day but an unfortunate tragedy fell on everyone that day.

    I started hooping since the age of 8, the first time I saw Kobe was when my Dad show us some clips on how Kobe and Jordan have the same kind of skills, then he bought Nba live 08 I always play as a Lakers because why not? and after that I want to hoop, I don't have the passion to work hard and improve myself because for me basketball is just hobby but when Kobe got injured against the Warrios on playoffs I saw him standing on his feet shooting two feet throws, that give the boost that I need, I've been practicing and playing for almost my whole life. I know I didn't improve so much, I didn't become the player I wanted to be, I didn't grew a 6 ft tall, I don't even have the hops to dunk, I didn't even got on a Varsity team, and a lot of guys outplayed me, even my 16 yearold brother outplayed me (I'm 18 so that's a big deal for me). But still I love playing basketball Kobe taught me so much not just on the basketball court. Its really hard to accept that he's gone. Still I love Kobe. I love basketball. Stay safe yall. Been a fan of you @JxmmyHighroller for 2 years. I always watch your latest uploads. Thank you for thiz Video I know that this won't heal our heart, but this what we really need to see right now. Thank you and Godbless 💜💛

    As someone that is just getting in to basketball in last the few years this channel has become a favorite of mine I love history and now I got a whole new history to learn and a ton of things to go back and watch and it’s honestly pretty awesome

    I remember playing 2k17, and seeing Kobe. He said "Welcome to NBA's 2k17 MyCareer mode, enjoy!" 😭

    I'm a suns fan, so Kobe was never one of my favorite players, but you have got to respect him for all he has done, all of his clutch moments, and his longevity. Sad to see him gone.
