- NBA legend and Hall of Famer, Kobe Bryant talks about the moment in his career where he failed drastically. He air balled four times against the Utah Jazz in Game 5 of the 1997 NBA Playoffs.
Excerpt from Wikipedia about the Utah Jazz:
The Utah Jazz are an American professional basketball team based in Salt Lake City. The Jazz compete in the National Basketball Association (NBA) as a member of the league's Western Conference, Northwest Division. Since the 1991-92 season, the team has played its home games at Vivint Arena. The franchise began play as an expansion team in the 1974-75 season as the New Orleans Jazz (as a tribute to New Orleans' history of originating jazz music). The Jazz relocated to Salt Lake City prior to the 1979-80 season.
The Jazz were one of the least successful teams in the league in their early years. Although 10 seasons elapsed before the Jazz qualified for their first playoff appearance in 1984, they did not miss the playoffs again until 2004. During the late 1980s, John Stockton and Karl Malone arose as the franchise players for the team and formed one of the most famed pick and roll duos in NBA history. Led by coach Jerry Sloan, who took over from Frank Layden in 1988, they became one of the powerhouse teams of the 1990s, culminating in two NBA Finals appearances in 1997 and 1998, where they lost both times to the Chicago Bulls, led by Michael Jordan.
Both Stockton and Malone moved on in 2003. After missing the playoffs for three consecutive seasons the Jazz returned to prominence under the on-court leadership of point guard Deron Williams. However, partway through the 2010-11 season, the Jazz began restructuring after Sloan's retirement and Williams' trade to the New Jersey Nets. Quin Snyder was hired as head coach in June 2014. With the development of Rudy Gobert and Donovan Mitchell into All-Stars, the Jazz launched themselves back into title contention, eventually earning the league's best regular season record in the 2020-21 season.

Kobe turned failure into growth. He was savage.
The ultimate savage.
I think it’s wild how people think the Mamba Mentality was developed during his career. That mentality was there ever since he was 13 years old and made a promise to himself that he was going to become one of the greatest players ever, and to never make excuses.
I always thought he was a selfish player (I loved him as a player but I wasn’t blind) and the Jazz game on that first shot just shows how selfish he was. That shot was never meant for him. Like MJ he didn’t really start playing real team ball until after Phil Jackson came on deck. Just look at Kobe’s game before and after Phil Jackson.
Fkin unbelievable , im 33 and still cant make such a promise to myself hereon
I never thought about that, I just assumed he got mad at himself and went into the gym.
But he broke down why he failed and why those shots missed. And made a plan to correct it for the next.
Like the mentality is like a science the more he talks about it. Not like a brute force, no mercy on yourself kind of thing like it's being perceived as. Sure it's tough training at the end of the day, but if training ain't tough you're not doing it right to begin with imo. Kobe just broke it down so everything had purpose to go along with the fire.
The DETAIL in Kobes words and how he explains, breaks down everything is amazing just like his game was!
🏀🔥
I totally agree 💯
He is right about how important to use failure as an opportunity to grow and become even better
💯💯💯
Kobe has been consistent about this. Saw 2 interviews about this and its the same answer.
Bro that's kinda interesting that he has that kind of mentality ever since he was only a child. I think family plays huge factor right here. If you teach your kids discipline, passion ,consistency, being awarded in return of work etc.. those kids are basically going to be special. I'm 18yrs old right now, I love my family more than anyone and anything but that's a fact that I didn't grow up like this. That is why, it took quite time for me to learn what is discipline, how to find passion and list goes on...
Thanks to kobe though, I learned all those things. I live in Turkey, I learned english at the age of 15 and still improving in a every way I can. I always try to get better so it is what it is.
Thanks for the video mate!!
Thank you! Kobe spent most of his childhood in isolation, and I think that’s why he was able to mature faster than most kids. Good luck on your English you should check out this video where Kobe defines greatness. I think you’ll realize that you’re already on your way there in Kobe’s eyes 🙏 czcams.com/video/iZV2TOiqplE/video.html
Great comment, and as a man from England.. Great English. Hope you achieve what you set out to do
Feels good to give a Kobe video the 24th like
It always does. Thank you 🙏
Stuff you can never see in the stat sheets that transcends and made impact even outside of basketball.
Miss u Kobe!! 💜🙏🏽
May he Rest In Peace while his legacy lives on.
I hate loosing and looking like a fool but I never want to look in the mirror and say I'm a coward and that's why i loved Kobe. He was no coward I always love the clip of him shooting a really hard 3 against all 5 of the Kings players, he missed but hes no coward
I remember that game against the Jazz. After he put up those air balls, I looked at my buddy and said ‘this guy is garbage.’ I am glad to say that I was wrong. R.I.P. Mamba.
So great I had to rewatch a few times
I’m happy you found it interesting.
Weight training. As a youngster, I had always thought building muscle would hinder my mobility and slow me down. But when I started weight training, it definitely enhanced my game. I had always had trouble scoring after grabbing an offensive rebound. Once I started weight training, I just powered my way up. Definitely helped. But I would advise against weight training and a very early age. Let your bones develop first.
RESPECT!
Kobe, air balls shots: develops a mentality so powerfully inspirational that the entire world knows the code name to describe a strong and dedicated work ethic.
Lebron, air balls shot: pouts, looks at revs for foul, blames teammates.

@@silewis9396 we’re talking about sports bro get out of here with your nerd behavior
Kobe!!!!
🐍🐍🐍
Eddie Murphy asking questions.
I think we need vidios 8 min and 24 sec long :)
Haha for sure
Smart
The NBA 3 point line is further than the High School 3 point line
True.
I’m smarter than…🫵🏽
my mouth
It took him all that thinking to realize his shots were short because he was gassed? He wasn’t self aware to know this going into the series?
I think he just didn’t expect it. Maybe it wasn’t until during the end of that game where he started to feel that fatigue or when it became too much. Only Kobe knew the full truth 💯
He was 18, the thought process was there, but the perspective was still forming...and never played that many games (which was 3X the amount of games he was used to playing) for him to understand that tangibly. He gained that piece of knowledge through that rough experience, adjusted to it, and from there, he never looked back.
At that young of age u don’t even really get tired u have so much energy but his legs just weren’t there yet that’s y he couldn’t comprehend what was going on at that very moment.
He never said anything about being gassed. He said his arms and legs weren't strong enough and he started lifting more weights throughout the season. It was about weight training.
Anybody can't jack up so many shots til they hit some. Most players are not going to that not bc they are scared to take them, it just don't make sense when you got 4 other pros on the court. Kobe made the game about him. If the team wins so be it but he's going to take those ridiculous shots. Not cool
The 4 other pros combined might be putting in as much work as Kobe
He averaged almost 5 assists a game for his career. He is 33rd (All-Time) in assists in NBA history. You have no clue what you're talking about.
@@SincereSentinel agree, he's a student of the game and its not the 2 guards job to pass alot, different when you're bringing the ball up every possession
Shaq said no one else was willing to take those shots
@@scottbabien4395 🤝, Agreed. And thanks for showing sensibility in an era that is largely lacking it.
Stop it, you're not MJ!
Closer than anyone else was
