Kobe refuse to sit out in his 1st game vs LBJ
I remember that game as a 14 year old high schooler wow were has the time went
And lebron is STILL playing
Up ya nose
That night sucked, I went to that game, my first ever Lakers game in person, was late getting into the building and Kobe got hurt just before I entered the turnstile!😞 Even though the Lakers won.
kobe bryant is the closest to michael jordan level 💯👍👌
Fk outta here Kobe better than expansion 24 team media hyped MJ

Selfish high volume scoring play style yes.

9:40 lol it was not a "no look" pass, you can literally see him looking at his teammate before throwing the pass. Just because he tried to make it look like that by the direction of his head, his eyes were still looking at his teammate...
He looked away after he made the pass lol
I prefer Kobe's "No Pass" look
What is the intro song called it’s hard 😂
wow they called travel back then...its crazy lebron was more finesse before the steroids..after the steroids he just steamrolls to the goal..before the steroids he was doing up and unders, stepbacks, fades...crazy
Fool he was 19 then. That's 20 years ago
You literally have no clue what ur talking about not only are you worried about a false call because it wasn’t travel it was a clean hop step but your also starting a false narrative while spreading false information it’s almost like you’re one of those lying losers who love to troll in comment sections cause nothing you just said was true at all
@@dparks2856These idiots to busy hating and forget logic 😂, I these the ppl you can’t debate with at all 😂😂😂😂
Yes, natural LeBron has better moves than steroids LeBron
Yuupppp he actually had a bag its actually wild to see the difference he even had somewhat of a jumpshot not consistent but he had a lot of upside then he started cheating
MJ Bron And Kobe the three Goats of basketball… each dominating their own era. 🐐🐐🐐

NAMASTE 🙏🏽 FROM BROOKLYN.

I’m hear to tell yall bra Lebron came out of high school as a complete player playing the small forward position I don’t give a af about who’s better than who if that’s your aim to try to diminish Bron as a player. But in my opinion LBJ is the total package he does everything on the floor and then some end of story that’s his biggest trait there’s no comparison at the end of the day 😎
Yes sir
Nobody cares bro. Your opinion about your boyfriend Bron means nothing. I can literally say Michael Redd is better than Bron and it doesn't change anything in the world.

lebron in rookie was amazing and hater still hate him haha
I mean he played like complete garbage this game.
I didn't have hate for him until later in his career when I realized how ignorant and self absorbed he is, and the way he quits or flops I lost all hope and respect for him. Sorry your hero is Queen James
@@kennyhill2678Ignorant? But when kobe and mj are its called “mamba/goat mentality” 😂😂😂 yall old heads are some clowns

Ok..? Kobe was 8 years into the league bron was a rookie. U love to hate on bron. And what happened this year? When kobe averaged 22 ppg on 38% from the field and 16% from 3?
@@do.2808 Kobe did not average 22. He averaged 24. And he shot the shot 33 from 3. You say he’s hating on bron, yet you hating on Kobe lol
@@stephordless8876im talking about the finals smart guy
Camera angles and split screen are bad
LeBron vs Kobe. LeBron is bigger than Kobe and still struggled. He just doesn't have that killer instinct that Kobe had to make comebacks.
Lebron was younger than Kobe and still competed and dropped buckets on Kobe fix it up just because you bigger don’t mean nothing and beating your matchup majority is struggling? Stop being a hater and open your eyes this Bron couldn’t even shoot either.😂😂
@LifeofOJ Bron is nowhere near Kobes level. Ever. At 17 Kobe was better than Bron at 18.
Why is he eating his fingers 😂
Letravel since day 1
Literally wasn’t even a travel it was a clean hop step it just was 2004😂
Legatee since Day 1!
@@CrushWildman Dude traveled at least twice in this video alone gtfo
lol they actually calling traveling on lebron
😂😂he was new a rookie. Now he gets away with cross world traveling 🤣
Wasn't even a travel
@loudy12 that first play wasn't a travel, and it should've been a blocking foul cuz his feet were still inside the restricted circle
it was a hop step which tells me that ref. are terrible at their job@@loudy12
kobe voice: soft shoulder 😁😁
Lebron would go on to win 16 of the 22 games they played against eachother
That's Bron goes missing late in games when it matters.
KOBE THE 🐐
Yo I Agree
No he's not 😂😂😂
@@JayzoTheNextKobeBryant2.0why?
He stands toe 2 toe wit da goat in my book
@@user-cs1pi8zg1n If we done with the 90s, then Kobe the goat 🐐
Dam I wonder if he remembers when Kobe talked in his abcd camp
Started what?
Footsteps in the ears of the Kobe Stans.
Back when they called travelling.
lol now I'm really starting to understand why kobe changed his number to 24... lebron with all the hype and media bullshit... kobe letting mfs know this is still my league
Yeah but for some reason he couldn’t win a championship since 2010 but Lebron the face of the league was winning championships while Kobe was still in the league but it’s “still his league” right the league got snatched up by Lebron in 2010 simple as that. ☝🏼
Shoutout to Kobe though much love and respect to the black mamba Lebron and Kobe are my two favorite players all time but I have to agree Lebron was a lil better Kobe just got that Killer instinct that does it for me both are good but when it comes to all time ranking since Lebron has more FMVP’s as well as accomplishments as well as beating Kobe majority times they matchup I got Bron over Kobe.
MJ Bron and Kobe the three Goats.🐐🐐🐐
Each dominated their own era.
what? kobe legit said he changed it to 24 to be one above mj has nothing to do with bron
19 yr old lebron. GOAT
This the year when kobe and shaq got embarrassed by Chauncey billups and Ben Wallace no top 75
Yep
People trying so hard to insert kobe on GOAT talk
You mean trying so hard to put lebron in the goat talk... lmao clutch sports
@@joeselsbury543 MJ is the GOAT lol not kobe
Is that Kaley Cuoco sitting court side at 6:30???????
Yes she is 🤣
💜💛💯
7:05 I now realize this game is fake. He shot two free throws with no issue , did not even hold his arm or have his shoulder leaning like it went limp until he made them both then walked off like his just fell off.
bro wtf is wrong w u kobe would never do that
@@jp9211why not?
You forget how young looking james was. Kobe and james had two different styles, but james was better and kobe knew it.
The great Kobe. LBJ been a beast
Thank you someone with a brain a real nba fan not a hater shoutout brother both are 🐐🐐’s.
@@BlessedOrrilegit
Why Bron look 2-3 years older than Kob?
I H8 watching videos of Kobe knowing he not here 🐍
I miss the G.O.A.T kobe
Goat? Sheep maybe
No question about it Kobe was the real GOAT❤❤❤
Easy to say; less easy to prove. Not that you're necessarily wrong; everybody has their own opinion of who the goat is.
How come kobe never comes up in that discussion then? He only comes up as the top Laker
@@Thebrothaisback It's hard to be the GOAT if you're not even the best at your own position. MJ over Kobe at shooting guard, and Lebron (even though he's a diva) over Kobe at small forward. Kobe is an all-time great player, though.
🗣️ITS SUCH A SHAME , THAT THEY NEVER PLAYED▶️ EACH OTHER IN THE FINALS .>🎤 😡🗑️
I remember when Kobe hurt his shoulder, I remember Kobe was crying like a girl for weeks. But I don't have a problem with him anymore.😂😂😂
Anybody would be or damn near crying too if their surgically repaired shoulder get re-injured.
I Remember kobe shot dat left hand shot I'm like wtf kobe😂😂😂😂
You flags and your gay little emojis
Karl Malone being out for his knee problems? Aint this the same team that lost 4-1 to the Pistons? 😂😂
Not one person would actually take Bron over Kobe when both playing.
Speak fa ya self cuz I definitely would and I respect kob
Will take him with ease bro
@@Moneyteam2324 well that's dumb lol So game on the line and you seriously want Bron at the line over Kobe? Wow ok cool. You lose Every time. One on one Bron loses every single time to Kobe guaranteed. If beasly can then pretty sure money is safe betting on Kobe lol To.take Bron over Kobe in any situation is insane. Like you gotta be smoking some good shit. Now without joking, you got your opinion just like I do. But just go watch team usa or any time they matched up and it's very clear as to who the better player is and always will be. Bron can pay all his money to Disney and China and it still won't make him better. Deep down I know he knows Kobe is better. I mean he played with him and against him. And Kobe was the leader of team usa not Bron. Kobe can carry a team almost by himself. Bron tried quit left.

A big what if, these 2 played together .
LeBron always owned Kobe. 16-6 wins. And majority when he was with the Cavs. LeBron was always the better complete player between the two. That’s why LJ and MJ the top 2 goats 🐐🐐🔥
Foh… Lebron was on better teams. 5-1 against Kobe while with the Heat, that team was a super team. Then 3-1 against Kobe during the 05-07’ Smush Parker Kwame Brown years. Please stop the BS. Plus regular season don’t mean sh*t, cuz if that were the case, Kawhi owns Lebron 12-8 in reg season matchups. 🤫

All of that to come out 2nd place most of the time in the finals right? Yeah some goat you got there

after mj there is only kobe who was closer to mj . after jordan is only kobe and nobody bron ornother sht
Its kobe who beat moat 50 plia win teams in the most stakced conference hardest wra to score than 24 team expansion wra mj than team hopping teaming up lebron

@@Rich-km7pr awe baby had a broken finger? Awww poor little girl. LeBron’s ironman and still better than Kobe ever was. From year 1 to year 21. Bron will always be better than Kobe
Lebron all the way to Cancun 😂 Watta Fraud hahaha. At least Kob can carry himself alone unlike Lechoke during miami days, needs to be carried by his teamates when got injured and to get a chip. hahaa stupid!
@@ArmsOfEve we’re taking about the guy that cried to the lakers and asked to be traded until they traded for Pau? The same guy that did that poor girl dirty in Colorado?

I liked LeBron back then, now he's just a pain in the butt💯
You see lebron couldn't play back then 😂😂😂 all the haters dont get it boy woulda gave mj fits
Lebron the GOAT
I see much hasn't change he still travels on almost every possession still can't shoot after all these years and as shown if defense wasn't changed in his favor he would be a common player. Kobe outplayed him in less minutes with a dislocated shoulder.
He shooting 41% right now. He beat Kobe more than anything else even when he was with the cavs. Just say u don't like him
@dashawnbarnes4401 I don't like LeRoid James and of course he beat Kobe more when Kobe was on the last leg of his career and he had D Wade and every other superstar he can find to team up with. The so called King is the reason basketball sucks the way it did and players like Ant Edwards and SGA are the ones bringing back respectable basketball where players play both ends of the court and use actual skill other than charging into someone like they're playing football.
Bron like “PERFECT!! Years from now I’ll create a fanbase that just copies and pastes numbers without context or narrative & I’ll manipulate their stupid asses into believing I’m actually the GOAT LMAO”
Fool still wouldn't pass the ball. Trying to shoot with 215lbs
man falling on you.
And last time you could call Charging foul... nowadays............LOL weak!!!
Kobe > lebron
Look at the young bumm biting his nails early lol nothing there to bite l😅😅😅
What bum cuz one is a millionaire and the other a billionaire but u might be a bum
He mad cause all this tough talk everybody do and all you have to do is google all this sht

Look how Kobe picked lebalco up. He knew he wasn't worthy at the very moment. Mamba is the King of LA. Lebum is a pretender.
You can’t be this dumb did we watch the same video 😂
haha see kobe injured and cant comeback haha lol soft
Lebron had a good team nothing but excuses
I love Kobe with all my heart, he is my hero. But I think he is trying to make it look that his shoulder is really fucked up, not gonna lie maybe that shoulder is really hurt but come on, he's kind faking it in a way trying to make it look really bad. Just my humble opinion.
Bruh what.....you really think this man would run from a rookie???? What a goofy ass take
How you going say it looks as if he’s faking if he’s clearly not and you have no legitimate reason to believe otherwise? 🤣🤣🤣 I doubt he’d fake a shoulder injury if he still won a championship with a broken finger & torn ligaments.
MJ and Kobe...❤❤❤lebron lazy😂😂😂😂
ah Bron aint shit
🤣🤣
Mj never had to face a complete super athlete fundamentaly complete player and when he did he was stacked against them . Kobe would fkn destroy mj any day expansion as mj vs 23 teams lol media meed to take mjs sausage out theyre moith and stop hating on the guy thst beat more 50 plus win teams in history kobe bean Bryant
