Putting up the shoes they wore on the thumbnail make this original. You deserve more subs
I remember seeing this game. These 2 were making highlight after highlight. It was crazy!
Times when the NBA was must watch TV, can't say that now.
FACTS! sadly
My top favorite player's,
They always put on a show.
I wish we could go back to these days.
Kobe Bryant on Tracy McGrady: "Tracy McGrady gives me problems because he can do everything I can do, except he is taller. You cannot figure him out. He is a nightmare to guard."
Tracy McGrady on Kobe Bryant: Kobe Bryant brought out the best in you as a basketball player. He was going to come at you every single play, and he was relentless. He has a killer instinct."
Bill Walton: " Everybody else need to get off the court and just let these two guys go at it, one-on-one."
This is their best matchup against each other. Both in their prime without having any serious injury issues to deal with.
I can't believe this channel only has 2k subscribers. you deserve more man!
TMac was the best player in the world during that season
Skill wise T-Mac was probably the 3rd of 4th best shooting guard we ever saw. The best shooting guards I've ever seen personally are 1. MJ, 2. Kobe, 3. Wade, 4. T-Mac, 5. Iverson. 5 of my favorite players. Along with Penny and Grant Hill.
Yeah I like Tracy McGrady too. Kobe is very overrated because he was kinda inefficient for a guy that had Shaq as a teammate on a championship team. Give me Wade and McGrady over Kobe if they could stay healthy! And that’s probably what it is. Health and not having a team around them in their prime. But when healthy and on top of their game, no doubt Wade and TMac are greater and more gifted players. Also I think TMac qualifies as a SF, I’m not sure.
Michael
McGrady
Wade
I would put tmac head of wade because the only thing wade was better at was being a slasher as far as all around game tmac was simply better bro
@@hunterjordan4327 hell naw Kobe wasn’t overrated bro u have to into consideration his opponents who was guarding and and the defensive schemes they had on him because I remember seeing Kobe shoot the ball with 2 or 3 defenders on him simply because he had no one else who could put the ball in the basket …you gotta stop with the Kobe disrespect my guy
@hunterjordan4327 Kobe won 2 championship without shaq. plus he did it without a top 75 player of all time. So that statement you made was quite ignorant.
@godsfavorite6905 Facts I agree with you. Only reason they put Wade ahead of Tracy is because of his Championships.
I remember those stiff ass Orlando rims. The jazz used to have those as well
I watched this game, and Kobe an T-Mac was out for each other's blood.
Kobe got shock by T-Mac that in response He dunked on the whole team the next play' and then smacked the backboard ''LOL''..
kobe is so good but T-mac's jumpshot is too beautiful, goodlooking and too painful to watch.
And his moves always intimidates kobe's greatness ... sorry Kob ✌️
I believe Kobe gave Mac so much praise because he knew the truth. At one in his Orlando years Mac was the better player. But the league had chosen Kob to be the next MJ( he himself chose to be the next MJ: at one point even imitating how he chewed gum/walked etc). However, unlike what Mac said at the end of this game Kob wanted to be the best so he did everything in his power to truly become the best in the league ( his foot work got better, moves outside of crossover etc). Eventually did become the best of the two. Mac injuries and horrible teams didn’t help( Hill injuries and Yao’s ).
Better scorer at one point absolutely. Better player ? That's a tough one
It should have been mcgrady as the third best shooting guard ever
This was a great match up. I watched it live but they let Kobe get away with so much. He was grabbing and holding Tmac like crazy while Tmac was playing clean defense on Kobe. Kobe had atleast 10 fouls lol
Bill Walton said it Kobe ignored the greatest weapon on the court SHAQ! He played so selfishly one on one with Tmac all night.. If MJ play with Shaq they d win 8 rings.
No dude, shaq wasn’t aggressive enough. Shaq should have forced them to give it. He wasn’t in the best shape here
Imagine if kobe got to play in a dogshit era like mj with illegal defensive rules that eliminated help defense and had trash ass defenders guarding him like mj. He would've won 10 rings without shaq
@@kmoney8201 facts...
Imagine if doc had let tim duncan wife at the time
On the plane
Everytime i rewatch these old tmac videos it makes me mad as fuck he disnt stay in toronto. If him and vince carter would have stuck together and got even ONE solid complimentary big man to come to toronto they would have at least one title. Even kobe said this back in like 2007 or so.
Robert Horry said WHAT????
Lmao!!!!!
Prime T-Mac was the best player in the league. Kobe was his equal match, but T-Mac was better.
Stop lying
8:50
Mcgrady was bigger, stronger and quicker than kb8 but that boy had no heart!
What are you based on from? He has always showed up in the playoffs some what. 🤔
@@ButtZilla tmac had no heart
@Thiiink Facts Kobe had more heart than Tmac and a better work ethic.
No one worked harder than Kobe.
Was that a typo and you meant to say that boy had no team?! His Orlando teams were horrible which mean every game they won was off of his back and heart
