I think the Lakers-Heat games were more of Kobe vs Shaq games than Kobe vs the next Kobe games. They were hyped because of Kobe and Shaq's rivalry. The comparison might have been a thing, but kobe went crazy because of wanting revenge on shaq, not trying to disprove comparisons to D-wade.
‼️‼️somebody finally said it cause I swear alot of Wade game was more so Jordan esk! It was seem that way because outside Kobe wade was the most competitive player in the game 💯
What's hard is that they compare the players to legends, so they aren't allowed to grow and make mistakes thus the "bust" comparisons. Maybe, just maybe, they aren't in the right fit or headspace
Harrison was less serious but i do remember the exum/kobe talks , Marshon Brooks was slept on as well , outside of wiggins and Book he had the most Kobe comparisonz
He hit a fade away on Kobe and said “i learned that from you” im not saying either of our opinions are righteous, however I think ill form my opinion from the horses mouth
Devina Bookerina from the WNBA SunShines? GTFOH with that bs. He has the skills of a kobe and the heart of a gay penguin. Maybe he will become tougher but for now hes not a kobe comparison 🤷
DBook don’t like double teams. And he started talking shit with Luka. Kobe never just started talking crap vs the opponents best player unless provoked
As a D Wade fan I agree. I think Kobe evolved beyond Jordan (Not saying he's explicitly a better player). We really were spoiled to get the 3 best (Jordan, Kobe, Wade) shooting guards in the span of about 40 years.
I always say this, Kobe added to MJ game and made it his own but casuals wanna call him a copy cat cause he does a few of his moves, he also does Reggie millers and Hakeems moves
I beat going against prime Kobe everybody in the league was scared of him. But those that beat him. Best believe when they faced off again. It will be something they would remember
Kobe may have averaged less assists but he still has almost 1000 more assists than dwade and before Lebron Kobe was the only player to have 30k pts and 6k assists
D wade was not compared as next kobe. He's compared as next MJ. I still remember way back 2009 season fans in Miami always put MJ WHO? in their sign boards
How many times has anyone dubbed the “next ____” in any sport actually turned out to be the case? Lebron was considered the “Next Jordan” (after Harold Minor of course) and he’s the only one I can think of that matched that set expectation of being comparable to the prior.
In another video you called Eddie Jones, Eddie Jackson. Smh. MJ with the Wizards and Kobe scoring that final meeting needs some context. It’s easy to score when you have Shaq and the team he had opposed to Jordan’s Wizards. Kobe as great as he is and in my opinion better than James is nowhere near MJ. Not even in the same galaxy.
YOU WERE ON POINT UNTIL EVEN YOU YOURSELF WAS WRONG AND CONTRADICTING YOURSELF . EVEN YOU SAID KOBE AVRG 28 6 AND 6 WHICH WAS HIS SECOND SEASON AVG. THAN SAID HE NEVER DID WHICH HE DID
Wait is dope, but in my eyes he's no comparison to Kobe.I don't care about his assists Kobe dominated his 19 years if the Chris Paul trade would have went through?He probably would have never stop winning rings.Everybody knew ithat's why the commission salted the deal. Then Turn around and let d wade make a super team. With Lebron smfh
@@PHXNKVHXLIC a losing record is a losing record. Plus you’re going off team records. Why don’t you look at their stats when they actually guard each other.
@@jinsanity LeBron averaged more points, rebounds, assists, steals, and blocks when playing against each other. I didn’t say LeBron would beat Kobe 1 on 1. The game of basketball is played with 10 players on the court and I would easily take LeBron over Kobe in a basketball game, season, and playoff series
@@PHXNKVHXLIC your original post didn’t say anything with Lakers, Cavs, etc. so you isolated Kobe. Now you wanna change your argument? That’s cool though. I’ll take Kobe. He’s beaten more 50 win teams in the playoffs and has a better finals record 🤷🏻♂️
Stop the disrespect! When did MJ ever score 81 points? When did MJ ever outscored an entire team through 3 quarters? Last time I checked Kobe scored more points than MJ and he deferred to Shaq for 8 seasons.
No one had ever said the next, Kobe Bryant, or the next LeBron James 😂people always compare to Michael Jordan. I’m pretty sure during Kobe Bryant‘s prime you probably weren’t even born😂 don’t get me wrong I still feel Kobe Bryant is the second best player and LeBron number three but LeBron is still playing so he can still be number two or number one. Nevertheless, no one has ever said the next Kobe Bryant.
There is no next Kobe, he was a once in a lifetime talent never to be duplicated. There will never be another player to score 81 points in an NBA game again.
@@Mike1122.well yeah cause no one will shoot like 60 field goal attempts, not hating on him but just hard to do it now when players don’t take more than 35 field goal attempts per game

Talk More About Kobe Bryant Please & Thank You
Harrison Barnes and Dante Exum literally had Kobe comparisons during their draft.

MANNNNN I’LL NEVER FORGET WHEN THEY SAID WIGGINS WAS THE NEXT KOBE , THAT DIDN’T STICK SO THEY SAID WIGGINS THE NEXT BRON 😭😭😭😭 I’LL NEVER FORGET LMAO
He really was a force of nature for his size
You could have added a LOT of players to this list who were actually hailed as the next Kobe : Brandon Roy, OJ Mayo, Tyreke Evans, Evan turner etc.
Harden and Booker were also compared to Kobe as draft prospects
Rudy gay
Danny wrangler
Do one on Russell Westbrook because he’s gotten a lot of draft comparisons like Jaylen Hands, Collin Sexton, and Jaylen Lecque
Read your bible! (KJV, preferably) ♥.
he never played against lecque or hands
Wiggins was more like the next Isaiah Rider than the next Kobe😅
The next Kobe was Brandon Roy but those dang injuries man smdh.
subbed
hard to say wiggins was the next kobe when he was nicknamed mapple jordan
Read your bible! (KJV, preferably) ♥.
D wade sounded distraught 😂
Do shaq!
MJ took EVERYTHING personal!
we need a “the next” KD vud
9:14 who is that wearing #1 where is he now?
There will never be another Kobe. Let me know when another player scores 81 points or outscores an entire team through 3 quarters.
Make one for lebron
BLACK MAMBA
Man, Wade was one off this who made Miami just to stop Kobe on getting 6th ring .
For me - out off good players
Oj Mayo?
Marshon Brooks
People forget Brandon Roy
Unpopular opinion Wade is more of a MJ than Kobe

He also trash talked Tony Parker in french.
Book and JT?
I guess they never played Kobe when they were looked at as next up, but they still played him and should’ve came up 🙄

Kevin Durant next
I beat going against prime Kobe everybody in the league was scared of him. But those that beat him. Best believe when they faced off again. It will be something they would remember
DeMar DeRozan I thought was the next Kobe
Can’t wait until everytime the Next “KD” played KD
They try to give it to booker. Smh
English, Spanish, Italian, and mandarin.
For some reason Kobes death is something that I cant understand.
Wasn’t Wiggins compared to LeBron in high school?
Kobe may have averaged less assists but he still has almost 1000 more assists than dwade and before Lebron Kobe was the only player to have 30k pts and 6k assists
For the first time unless you're bron and wemby is abuse xD. Kobe was a shell of his prime-self during these seasons
When dirk faced the next dirk?
Dirk and KD could be one. KD was compared to him, T-Mac and George Gervin as a rookie
@@brando_05KP as well! KAT maybe
Kobe was drafted by the Hornets
Abrupt ass ending??
With all due respect I don’t remember anybody calling Wade the next Kobe.
D wade was not compared as next kobe. He's compared as next MJ. I still remember way back 2009 season fans in Miami always put MJ WHO? in their sign boards
Nah I was hearing Wiggins was the next Lebron😅
I only watched cuz Kobe IDC who y'all think next
cool, want an award for it ???
Marshon Brooks was getting serious Kobe comps , nobody truly thought he would be the next kobe but damn did he play jus like a non athletic kobe 😂
How many times has anyone dubbed the “next ____” in any sport actually turned out to be the case?

Not even close

This is how you know Kobe's one of the greatest, they stopped the game after he passes jordan, they never did that for LeBron. 8 /24
😂 Literally did when he passed Kareem
Mfs hate lebron but live rent free in heads is crazy😂
The next Kobe isn’t playing in the nba
He is playing in the nfl
His name is Patrick Mahomes
Funny that curry vid got more views & likes than Kobe’s lol the Kobe hate will forever be at an all time high
Kobe is a legend bo doubt, but he was a shot jacker..and at times would shoot his teams out of games
The fact you got 8 likes lets me know how dumb you and they are. Kobe, was a generational talent and there will never be another.
You passing to smush and em lol
LeBron could never

There was never a comparison between with Wade and Kobe, these were both Shaqs teams. These guys were robins.

Tmac
Wade is nowhere near Kobes Level...& it's getting tiresome to keep hearing this comparison!!!
Kobe went 6-16 vs LeBron James. The worst among any other player he faced more than 10 times
