  • Kobe Bryant made countless game-changing shots, schooled top-tier players, and pissed off a lot of fans. Off the court, he was unfiltered, unapologetic, and one of the coldest NBA players ever. Here are Kobe Bryant’s most badass moments.

    Kobe really did change what it means to be a great player. Dude was a monster while playing, you'd fear facing him. After he retired, he's the first person they all went to. He really just loved the game so purely, it sucks he was taken way too soon

      Not disagreeing per say, but there are a ton of people that reach this level in many professions. Whats admirable to me, and important to understand, is how and why he got there. I mean, your statement "Kobe really did change....blah blah blah.".. is truly absurd. There are so many similar historical examples I could fill a 1000 pages, but ya he had something unique, real analytical question is what, why, how. He is definitely not unique or some god to be praised as you suggest. MJ cowshits on that idea.

      I dont want to be an ass but, I mean... he "felt" the height difference and then just guesed. 1/4 of an inch is the width of a pencil, impossible to grasp from shooting distance. Still a fucking cool story thou

      @@abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz4839 just to be clear. I totally belive the fact that a professional player could, like I said, FEEL the difference. they made the same shot millions of times and im sure they can feel a height change. But catching 1/4 an inch by sight? impossible, let alone guessing the exact value of 6 millimeters (aka 1/4 inch).
      Still think thats a super badass story, kobe was the man.

      @billfred9411 Před rokem

      That story was a little hard to believe just because the way its told seems made up on the spot. Just the way there happens to be a guy measuring the net after the game that he could ask about the net. Also depending on what kind of shot your trying 1/4 of an inch shouldn't even effect if it goes in or not. I doubt it's a true story but stories like that tend to happen when you reach such a legendary status.

      I didn't cry, for a long time. One night though, I'm scrolling through Facebook and I see a story with Kobe and a sick kid. They asked him if he could give the kid an autographed jersey, he said "I can do better than that, I'll just show up there." Kobe gave them merchandise and took a picture with them. After that picture, the words just pop into my head, "Kobe's never going to smile again." That's when I finally lost it.

      no BS I cried over it just this past week bc I had suddenly remembered that KOBE was gone.
      of all the celebrities & public figures I've ever watched/followed in my lifetime, I would NEVER have guessed that Kobe Bryant, the Mamba, the man who's inspired generations & amazed millions, would tragically pass at just age 41, let alone alongside his daughter & in a preventable accident. this man always appeared to me as the embodiment of sheer willpower, unparalleled discipline, a winning spirit, & the foresight to see his goals through. I also tear up when I remember how fondly he always spoke of his family in interviews & how wide his grin was with them. I likewise teared up watching clips of veteran NBA giants, usually as nonchalant as can be, openly weeping about the awful news. Kobe was such a national & even international culture icon for sports, that it feels INSANE to be discussing a man who had so much life left to live, in the past tense. he was beloved for a reason & had a hell of a mindset. RIP champ!! 🏆

      As a Los Angeles native I always felt the same way about The Celtics.

I hated those dudes yet still respected them cause they were some beasts on the court and were responsible for some of my most cherished childhood basketball memories ✌

    Kobe Bryant came the absolute closest to answering the question of who's next after Michael Jordan? Bryant is the second greatest SG of all time. Bryant is a brilliant player in his own right, but to want and thrive under the pressure of being compared to Jordan is in itself a feat. Had Bryant been alive today, there is no question in my mind he would be coaching the Sparks and eventually his WNBA bound daughter.

    An underrated story is the 2008 Olympics preparation camp.
    The goal was simple for Bosh. He wanted to set himself up as a young leader so he got to breakfast first. Only he wasn't first. Kobe was there, already worked up a sweat.
    Bosh would later tell this at his Hall of Fame speech. He hadn't made the play-offs. Kobe was fresh off a Celtics humiliation. Legends aren't defined by their successes, but how they bounce back from their failures.
