@@SnailKingGY yeah he talked abt it back in tge summer, he did put on the tape after the next whistle. Kobe was sure it was fine, but gary knew it could dislocate again and it wouldnt be a simple "pop it back"
Because kobe is hated by media when he was still on the league plus those fans of other superstars who gets irritated by just because he is showing too much heart/love to the game that you cant help but appreciate it, then we have the hater that gets mad when they think kobe is surpassing their man
I miss Gary Vitti and Kobe. Gary Vitti once said that the idea was to pop the finger back then tape it.. but Kobe just walked away because in his mind he was ready to play. 😅. You can kind of see where Gary was reaching into his back pocket to get the tape, but Kobe was already back on the floor. What a tough SOB!
R.I.P to a warrior, a legend, a father, and one of the greatest to every step foot on a basketball court. Superstar athletes all around the world looked up to his hard work, athleticism, and raw talent. Watching him play was truly a gift. Prayers go out to Vanessa Bryant and her family. Can’t imagine what she’s going through right now 😔 #flyhighkobe
Iuhshwth your comment makes no sense the reports out of San Antonio was Kawhi wants to be 100 percent to play games plus he load manages now and he’s not even injured Lebron really missed games when he had his groin injury . Make sense before you start commenting.
@@jdrumz23 How many times Bron faked shit just not to play and embarrass himself even more? Tons. How many times Kawhi faked something? None. Load management doesnt have anything to so with injuring, so your comment makes no sense.
Iuhshwth so Lebron faked his groin injury ya niggaz find ways to hate on Lebron for no reason unbelievable the most games his missed was last year then has the most minutes played in playoffs history Kawhi has to sit out back to back games Lebron is playing every game year 17 at 34 years old smh just stating facts 🤷🏿♂️ Lebron is more tougher then Kawhi per
I've dislocated my thumb playing ball and when I tell you the pain how fast my shit swelled up . Immediately I lefted to go to the doctor. This man kobe Bryant plays through pain in a way I've never seen before . You gotta be really mentally strong to play with pain
I wasn't a Kobe fan initially. But I remember watching this game, but this game really made me realize how great of a competitor he was, just like MJ and Larry. Kobe's desire to compete and win is in the class with them, just hard to rank them. MJ or Larry never had nicknames for their mentality, but Mamba Mentality is a legend.
Maaaan. Who gives a sh*t what other players would've done in this situation. All I care about is that this man epitomised toughness. And not to mention CZcams clips are the only memory we have of him now 😞
Just came here right after Lillard dislocated his finger and had to go to the back. When it happened Kobe he got it fixed right there on the court and went back in the game lol at 37 years old
LeBron can beat this dynasty warriors 3 times, cure cancer, and retire with the most points, 2nd most assists and 10th most rebounds but you still won't admit
Flight Crew Athletes after what, 17 years? If he sat out more during his career I highly doubt he would have the same 5 rings. Sacrificing your body is part of the game and he gets 100% respect from fans and peers. That’s not a knock on lebron or other guys. It’s just showing Kobe’s stubborn Ironman character.
Kobe Bryant dislocating his finger and getting it popped back into place and re-entering the game within a minute is the most Kobe thing.
RIP Kobe.
:) and it's funny because he didn't allow Viti to have a chance to put tape on the finger.
@@andrewbean24.2 Vitti was looking like "I still gotta tape it man....." and Kobe just flexes his hand and leaves
@@SnailKingGY yeah he talked abt it back in tge summer, he did put on the tape after the next whistle. Kobe was sure it was fine, but gary knew it could dislocate again and it wouldnt be a simple "pop it back"
I'm an old guard Spurs fan and I miss him too. He left us too young.
Did they win this game?
Duncan: it hurt?
Kobe: yeah

Duncan is a peace of shit ass boring guy.
Gary Vitti popped his finger back in like it was nothing. Much respect.
Aryan Kandira how do you pop it back I need it
@@gangtime8705 you just pull it back and you will hear a popping sound.
@@HeyItsRhaye it been 4 years for me so i dont know if it works or if i am doing it right
Lol he talked about it and said it was really dislocated and he needed to crank it really hard to get it set

Basketball misses Kobe. True legend. Warrior. One of if not the toughest players ever!
He wasn't warrior he was laker smh
@@yuki-tanhe was a warrior as in like he was a fighter 😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮😮

Kobe: Yeah
Timmy: Mm...
Duncan is a shit ass boring guy.
Tim: you should sit out
@@alexejcrescini390 once upon a time he was a fun guy, he always laughed, then ref gave to him not one but two technical fouls..
Vitti was good... he was there with Kobe the whole time.He helped keep going going in game's for many year's.Respect to him!!
I saw a picture of him in the 90s with hair 😂 so weird
Lebron would have miss the rest of the season 😂😂😂
I feel like this is suddenly in everyone's recommended...
The CZcams algorithm was watching Kobe highlights for motivation.
@@dx2327 im starting to the think the algorithm is just one guy in a room at youtube watching shit
I don’t know why it’s in my recommendation too..
Yeah bro i do
Its because everyone is suddenly remembering how tough Kobe was and with how this load management thing is the new hot topic.
How can you have any kind of disrespect for this man when it comes to the game of basketball?
How can we?
Because kobe is hated by media when he was still on the league plus those fans of other superstars who gets irritated by just because he is showing too much heart/love to the game that you cant help but appreciate it, then we have the hater that gets mad when they think kobe is surpassing their man
Cris P. Bacon facts!!!!!
Here we are now and Kobe is everyone's God including the mofos who felt that they can't show love to Lebron without trying to disrespect Kobe
@@theagyeman nah everyone still shits on kobe lol
Haha laker commentator referencing lebron James for missing games due to finger pain
he's a bitch
sawyerleemoore stu lantz keeps it real
Alex Te'o yeah Lebron
@@alexteo6273 keep tht same energy
Lol LBJ will definitely sit on the bench excuses excuses LBJ needs the mamba mentality.
I don't know who's cooler Kobe or the trainer
Kobe, just Kobe.
Red stripe girl's reaction says it all.
@Jesse Pinkman SHUT UP MAN
And so was the guy in black blazer to the left, he literally looked down for that moment. 😁
@panda44r wataching, she prob heard it pop back in place. Watch as she covers her ears.
they don't make em like they use to
Ronnie Pabros dying Breed

Rip Kobe! His sheer drive and determination will always be the reason why he is an all time great!
One of my fav Kobe moments Rip to all 9 victims.

Exactly how it went down
Much respect to these two legends.
gary "like a boss" vitti
miss him! for sure
Gary Vitti trying to provide comfort and saying here we go!!!! He ALSO loved Kobe like a son!!!!!! Gary is the best trainer in sports
Can’t become a GOAT without a GOAT trainer… I love how he popped that back in like that happens every game
0:26 lmao that girl in the red stripes was a little closer to the action than she probably wanted to be
HERE AFTER DAME DISLOCATED finger anyone!?
Same
Yes I am.
Was gonna like your comment but saw that it was at 24 likes so I left it like that :')
Facts
*Damn Vitti popped that thing back in faster than a street corner skag deal.*
I remember watching this game live. My appreciation for Kobe sky rocketed after this game
U CRAZY, TOUGH, SOB Kobe. U did us Lakers fans SO PROUD. U gave us everything and we appreciate it SO MUCH. Thank you KOBE.
RESPECT TO THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME. MY CHILDHOOD HERO.THANK YOU FOR THE AMAZING HIGHLIGHTS. REST PEACEFULLY IN PARADISE .
not the greatest but top 10
This defines who Kobe bryant was...

#flyhighkobe
“Fly high Kobe” really rubbing it in
I'm sad we lost this man, we need more of him
Duncan: Can you still wear all 5 of your rings on that hand?
Kobe: yep. Can you?
Duncan: yep
Greatest Of All Time
Shout out to the trainer...true pro....
scared the living shit out of me I have tickets for the bulls lakers tommorow omg thank god kobe is just in tough as nails.
LOWC MF But how do you know if he is a hater?
if this happened to Kawhi he would need 3 months off for "load management"
Hahaha
Nah, you misspelled LeBron. Kawhi played through pain in last years playoffs, so your comment is as irrelevant as your life boy.

Who is here after watching Dame dislocating his finger and people making excuse for him ?
Yup such a bitch
Kobe is on MJ level that's a different ball game.
there was only one kobe though
Kobe just build different not many people can play after that I know I wouldn’t but I’m no pro player.
You know that dislocation is also a matter of degrees right? Dame hurt dislocated his finger worse...
KOBE & DUNCAN,,,,SEEMS LIKE YESTERDAY,,,WE WERE SO BLESSED💯💯💯🙏🙏🙏
I don't think there's ever gonna be a player as tough as Kobe
When I see Duncan and Kobe brings me back to that atmosphere love it
"I'll have you know I once stubbed my toe watering my spice garden and I only cried for 20 minutes"
Did they let you in the Salty Spitoon?
I run the place now
Who’s here after Embiid broke his finger?
Moi
rip kobe...forever one of the coldest players to step on the court :'(
One of best that ever did it.
REST IN PEACE KOBE BRYANT 💛🐐💜
And people dare to compare that LeCrybaby to Mamba smh...
I would of been like yeah boss I’m going to need three weeks off
Lol weak
Nothing seemed to phase him. RIP Kobe ❤️🙏🏻
I've dislocated my thumb playing ball and when I tell you the pain how fast my shit swelled up . Immediately I lefted to go to the doctor. This man kobe Bryant plays through pain in a way I've never seen before . You gotta be really mentally strong to play with pain
Kobe : Pain is just weakness leaving the body. Or some other insane type of shit 😂
Dame dislocates finger
Friend sends me this video
friend: Not all can be KOBE
Just happened to me in a pick up game. Kept playing and went 1-7 with 1 rebound and 3 TO. Mamba mentality
Put a splint on it brother
1-1 with heart
Thats my top Kobe memory. Nothing is going to stop him.
I love the pat on the back of the head like " I gotchu, now go win this game "
What a warrior..... RIP Kobe....
Who else came here after Embiid's finger was dislocated
Stop with this
Wtf? We need a CZcams tutorial on how to put a dislocated finger back in place. at high school and rec leagues, people do not know how to do this
i love how gregg popovich reacts LOVE
Mamba Mentality never die!!!
Definition of toughness
Soccer players go back on after dislocating shoulders
+Sam Geee they don't score 81 points in one game though
William Smith Maybe because its more competitive,the pitch is a lot bigger and you don't get 3 points for a long shot....? Just a thought
Sam Geee soccer lame. A game where you use your feet to score 😂
They also constantly flop 😜
Love how concerned Coach Pop immediately went to Kobe to see what happened on his finger.
the love tap to the head of Mamba after popping it back makes it like a father-son or brother-son moment
Duncan be like "Are you sure you wanna play?" haha
gary vitti LIKE A BOSS
Rodrigo Nowhere miss him
I miss him on the sidelines. Dude was awesome.
RIP Kobe. Forever 24.
That was probably the smoothest popping a dislocated finger back in place in history.
Such an OG
I wasn't a Kobe fan initially. But I remember watching this game, but this game really made me realize how great of a competitor he was, just like MJ and Larry.
Kobe's desire to compete and win is in the class with them, just hard to rank them.

My favorite part is Duncan just looking at him like "Did you just come back in after dislocating your finger? What the fuck are you?"
Who's here from Austin rivers?

I’m here so I can be reminded what greatness looks like
Maaaan. Who gives a sh*t what other players would've done in this situation. All I care about is that this man epitomised toughness. And not to mention CZcams clips are the only memory we have of him now 😞
The reaction of the girl in red and black always gets me. Reacts exactly like my sister does when i show her a cut or bruise
forever one of the coldest things a player could do: dislocate a finger, get it popped back in and then resume like it was nothing
Rip Kobe
The reaction of the girl in the front row is awesome!! lol
Just came here right after Lillard dislocated his finger and had to go to the back. When it happened Kobe he got it fixed right there on the court and went back in the game lol at 37 years old
Yep came here for the same reason lol. Kobe is a legend
Por was down 30+ he would of got back in if the game was close lol
Kobe is more Honey Badger than Black Mamba tbh...
THE LEGEND LIVES ON... #RIPKOBE
Thanks for everything kobe 💛💜
Ok, play ball.
This is why LeBron wont pass Kobe in my eyes.
LeBron can beat this dynasty warriors 3 times, cure cancer, and retire with the most points, 2nd most assists and 10th most rebounds but you still won't admit
he already did..years ago
BlueFingerz so what, basketball is not all about stats sheet.
It's about winning
u just a lebron hater
Wow...unbelievable team work
One of my favorite Kobe memories
Kobe is a soldier that was a big game
Legend looking out for each other.. duncan and kobe
Still can’t forget the girls reaction in the back lol
These dudes today would be out doing rehab for weeks..."I need load management for my finger."
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
The Mamba was a different breed.
🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍
lnapjr76 yeah, and his career ended too early
Flight Crew 5 rings. 3rd most points in history. You cryin bout his career ended to early?
Sic narf sure, have you heard about the Achilles injury that ended his career

@@hdbuckets8154 too early? What age did he enter the NBA and what age did he retire?

Tim Duncan-Kobe Bryant 10 Rings.
Tough as they come!
Duncan is also a class act for checking on him right away
Gary Vitii doing some real-life 'Mr. Miyagi stuff' right there on the spot.
i love how tim is even impressed LOL, the most chill guy, no reaction ever this guy and he's just like what.? are u srs? hahaha
Austin Rivers and Josh Richardson did the same thing with their trainers and unable to bear the pain.
That’s how tough Kobe is
Still hard to believe he's gone.
We love you Kobe...
The relief when a dislocation resets is immediate. I've dislocated both shoulders multiple times. I can reset it by myself in a few seconds.
i miss Kobe...
Anyone here after seeing a coment in Joel embiids injury?
