- These are some of the greatest sportsmanship moments in NBA history but they get increasingly more wholesome as the video goes on.

Trae and Luka watching the shot like they're still kids on the court never gets old
srsly tho like it’s so adorable
Nah honestly I thought it was both of them laughing at Deandre Ayton who was the 1st pick of that draft. Oh ooops I just triggered some Suns fans KEKW.
@@Otaku_Akuma 😭
That was funny.

NBA blocks but they go increasingly farther into the stands

I would def watch that

AD in the Lakers v Grizzlies series would be a good 10% of it 💀

Gordon setting the standard for wholesomeness. I'm gonna put my foot on the floor when my wife is mopping in case she misses a spot, she can blame me.
Gordon is on record saying that was an accident on his part🤷♂️ look it up
It sounds like a feel good story but Gordon himself rebutted the rumor by saying it was not intentional via twitter. Even Mike Tirico (guy on phone) said his assumption was wrong.
@@InJunoWeTrust yeah Tirico's story absolutely sounds made up
They were literally competing for a the final play-off spot lol. They lost and missed being the 8th seed in the west and finished in 9th by 1 game. Gordon had zero intention of trying to help Kobe.
@@joshjoshjoshjoshjoshjoshj Well of course. he isn't going to say he thought kobe might miss it.
Damn I never noticed Gordon stepping in on the free throw in case he missed it
From memory I think if Utah won they wouldve made the playoffs as well, but he still did it
Didn’t give a fk if his team won or not
@@nondos9742Some team in the west won that night so by the 3rd quarter jazz knew they weren’t gonna make the playoffs
Hey can you explain that? Why was it so important for kobe to hit that free throw?
Okay I found it. However gordon himself says he did not do it on purpise. He said that right after kobes death via twitter so I thin its legit
Just because he’s in here I wanna say that as a Jazz fan, Gordon Hayward was always a gentleman and a scholar for us. Of course hindsight is 20/20 so a lot of people wish we got Paul George but Hayward did everything he could for us and treated us right as well
I mean it only makes sense he took care of UTAH fans since he’s MAGA 😂
Gordon is on record saying that was an accident on his part
hayward said he was going to resign and then signed with the Celtics did not do us right
Nah he did The Jazz dirty af with the way he left.
Lol fucc no that was not intentional. He was salty af that Kobe dropped 60 mostly on him. Nobody wanna be on the receiving end of that lol.
You guys are trippin. I guarantee you all Utah players would rather blow out Kobe and hold him to 5/20 shooting than suffer this in his final game.
Gtfo here 😂
Russ getting cheered for cleaning the floor reminded me of that one SpongeBob episode 😂
😂
Culture Shock in Season 1 😊
The respect from Kobe to Dirk is beautiful to see. He even said "Tough guy" in the end, amazing sportsmanship there.
Said tough shot i think but yeah Kobe recognized great ones
Kobe told his teammates that Dirk was going to take the last shot and where he would do it from when they were in the huddle before this last play. If you watch the extended version of this you'll see him tell his teammates, "I told you." That was a game winning shot by the way.
@@ericcouch That's craaaazy! I'm going to look for the full version, tyy.
I thought he said “every time”. Nobody on that court knows that Dirk takes and makes that shot 9 times out of 10 better than Kobe.
He said helluva shot
People always complain about there not being beef in the NBA anymore (which I still think is untrue, just for the record), but I think a league where most players get along is one to strive for at the end of the day. I absolutely love seeing the mutual respect between players. These are all very special individuals and should recognize each other as such.
I agree to a certain extent. I also think there is some legitimate beef in the NBA. I'd wager that Jokic and Morris aren't exchanging Christmas cards yet.
It's a competition, not a picnic.
@@TheDendra7 It's a game, not a war.
@@TheDendra7 Do you never compete with your friends or family? You can absolutely want to destroy someone competitively and love that person. It's comments like these that make me realize that most people haven't done anything competitive in their lives.
@@darnarxz yep exactly this. the people with these comments always are sideline spectators at best
it's always so nice to see star players embrace after a game. really shows that the NBA is a family.
It’s just common respect. It’s a basketball game not the end of the world
sometimes somebody need to point that all and all this is a baskeball game. Sportsmanship its always better that anything else...
how its even possible?
5 on 5 where you see the same faces on the other team over 20 or so times in a year. Yeah it's gonna be personal it's not the same as some coworkers in a job because each of them knows the work put in to get at that level. Then you have the fact these guys go to different teams more often than other sports so you see familiar faces and guys who are now your teammates and you get to know em better. So everybody knows everybody
I really wish the MLB would start this. It always sucks seeing one team high-five themselves after a game. Totally pathetic.
4:45 military guy is on his phone and pretends he saw the shot lol
3:49 I can’t explain just how much i love that interaction between Don and Jrue, them both smiling and giving each other five and Love jokingly pushing them away like “ arrright cmon now you’re supposed to be opponents no hugs”. The whole thing is so wholesome
I think about Steven Adams passing up the open layup to save his defender from falling often. He became one of my favorite players after that.
Honorable mention: in a post-game interview this playoffs, someone asked Jokic about losing mvp this season and he said that he thought Embiid should’ve won it - that was a big respect moment
As a new, casual fan. Players like Luka and Trae looking like they're having a blast out there is one of the most enjoyable parts of watching
I'll always respect Doc for shouting out my GOAT, Dirk🙏🏽
The Dirk / Kobe moment is one of my all-time favorites. Such an awesome moment between two legends.
I swear to god I smiled through out this WHOLE video
right?? impossible not to
I don’t know anything about basketball or NBA stuff but this video is awesome !
same
I'm drunk I read this as "smelled throughout"
Gordon Hayward a legend for that
3:56 Undoubtedly the "passing of the torch" moment right here. Legendary stuff
Doc with 1 of the classiest moves ever. Making sure Dirk got his flowers in an opposing teams arena.
That 4:45 moment Luka and Trae are wholesome🙌🏽
They look like kids playing basketball to see if the shot is good. Just look that their happy faces.
Adams could have easily had an and one layup but he felt making sure Plumlee was okay was more important. That's serious class right there, and from a guy most players are afraid of, no less.
He’s the nicest most down to earth player I’ve ever seen in the nba imo
5:12 looks wild and hell 😭😭😭😭
The best edited sports compilation I’ve ever seen. The audio transitions were all perfect and all the replays and everything was super clear and well paced, what a vid
the vince carter one almost made me cry … an actual legend to everyone on that court
6:41 I remember watching this live. Doc giving it up to Dirk was a super class act
Was obviously very unrehearsed which made me laugh but also made it so much more genuine. Dirk's NBA journey is one of the great stories.
At 3:28 - man, that gets you in the feels and reminds us that Kobe was epic at both the sport and sportsmanship.
Draymond with the “HUG ME BROTHA!” 0:36
damn, russ really working as both a construction worker and janitor at 1:20 you love to see it
(i love Russ I just wanted to make the joke)
Greatest brick mason in the league
@@maximus3294 good joke 😎
Now this is the king of highlight reel we want to see
A nice ray of warm sunshine in this ever increasing pit of despair known as the internet.
I haven't followed basketball closely in years and barely even keep up with the playoffs so I'm certainly not speaking from an informed opinion but this is just a brilliant video - a whole side of the NBA, and of sports, that I think gets too little attention. So much of sports is about tension and so much of sports coverage is about dilating that tension even further and the result is that you rarely see the comradery and community that extends beyond the bounds of a single team. There's a shared and deserved respect amidst sheer competitiveness and that is worth a standing applaud.
Kobe and Dirk. Two legends. Respect all around.
Draymond on a sportmanship compilation. Never thought I'd see the day.
One day he’s preventing Ja from falling, the next he’s curb stomping Sabonis’ ribcage
@@hardeepchahal7350 😂😂
Preventing ja from falling 😂 hes actually making the fall worse and turning his body where he’s more likely for an injury F draymond
1:35 , "Preciate ya bud" best one for me. haha
bench celebrations but they get increasingly more funny
Steven Adam’s is the absolute definition of sportsmanship
5:24 That would have been iconic
Kobe to Durk classic 😢
Gordon Hayward came out after Kobe’s death and said that he didn’t intentionally step into the lane so that there could be another attempt if he missed.
“He got 60 on me and I didn’t give him anything free all night. What happened on the free throw line was not intentional. Kobe would’ve lost respect for me if I gave him something free. That’s what made him so very special.”
Probably cap but nonetheless the absolute right thing to say. Hayward is straight class.
Ja being wholesome is so wild after all the media about him. He's made mistakes but he's far from irredeemable, there's this wholesome sportsman Ja that just shows his passion for basketball.
One of the funnest players in the league to watch. Hate that he keeps messing up off the court.
I don't think his off court activity should change how fans view him as a basketball player but it's difficult to treat the two mutually exclusively. That being said, one wholesome interaction on the court doesn't cancel out a proven track record of acting dumb on social media. He's still young so it's possible that he can mature but not everyone does (such as Draymond).
He didnt even really do anything wrong. He had a gun. Thats legal
5:57 never noticed Randle motioned for Vince to shoot it..that’s dope
I know nothing. Can you provide context to why they "let him shoot"?
@@kaylinsmith6921 It was Vince's last game ever. It was shortened covid season 2020, Atlanta didn't make it to the play-off. Knicks let him retire with a bang.
Big respect to the 🐐 rip KOBE
Didnt Hayward specifically say he didnt step over the line for Kobe? Lotta guys prematurely step over the line on free throws.
No.
the Kobe/Dirk will somehow always be the most memorable for me.
Grant really got that batman strength now
Thank you for posting this. The Kobe and Dirk moments will always tear up this Mavs fan. #respect #Kobe
so wholesome..i cant stop smiling..😊😊🧡🧡
Is there any videos with sportsmanship like this? I want to see more. This is beautiful and awesome content for a video.
Dirk was just pure class all the way through.
1:51 Seth Rollins Approved 👌
More of this 💛
Your editing is on point, transitions are well done.
Kobe-Dirk
Doc-Dirk
Heyworth-Kobe
Almost made me bawl my eyes out. Well done, men.
Never noticed Hayward play thanks for pointing it out.
"The fraternity of the NBA, and the reverence for greatness in the NBA, is at a different level than any of the other sports that we watch or cover." - Mike Tirico
I fw this channel. It's the moments of the nba that should be highlighted more
Its amzing to see people being naturally good people even in the middle of a game, I think deep down were all naturally caring of each other
3:36 this was a great one! 😊
4:42 that servicemen's reaction tho.
🤯🤯🤯
Not going to lie, this is a nice look and different aspect that I believe is good to see. I love the disrespectful dunks and hard competitiveness but this is beautiful as well
This is why I love NBA, always a level of respect
Grew up playing street cricket and this video just brought back all those memories, so cool! 🏏❤️
More of this. Everywhere. Nice job OP
I think my favorite of these is the Bobby Portis block, because the incredulous look from Bradley Beal is just so great. It's as if to say, "Did you not see the amazing play I made to get that layup?!? How you gonna rob me of that highlight reel!?" My man worked way too hard to get rejected that solidly at the very end.
draymond being the nice sportsman like guy in those first few clips is wild
Gordon himself said he didn’t do it on purpose and that Kobe would have been disappointed in him if he did.
Glen 'big baby' davis holding the baby by itself now😁 0:49
There's something about seeing the best in the world having fun with the game they love
This was awesome
The ambassadors really make it feel accessible for everyone. Makes you believe you could be the next big winner! 🌟🏆
I could watch this stuff every morning. Just puts me in a good mood.
This is the kind of video I want for every sport ever. Even if I don’t know wtf is happening.
This is why we truly love basketball, ain't it?!!
these are the moments i love this game, its disapointing when the opposite happens
Sportsmanship is beautiful and so important! ❤️
All bout love
Grant's face almost became like "Thomas the train engine " 😂
0:22 Im sorry,I cant stop laughing😅
Never knew NBA was so classy and wholesome. Proud...
Kobe 😢 breaks my heart every time
crazy how dreymond goes from saving people to throwing punches xDD
RIP Kobe. 🙏
it is wholesome when you’re so appreciative of the sport you play that when your opponent does a cool move you’re just as excited about it and congratulate them. that’s awesome, kudos to theses professionals!
I keep expecting all of these guys to get called on a Technical. 🤣
I've seen these sort of compilations before but this one is particularly good because the clips make it very obvious that traveling is going on with various players better than other compilations I've seen. It'd be interesting to know how many such egregious travels have occurred during playoff series' when a missed call by a ref can have negative consequences for the livelihoods of a lot of people.
The Dirk part was crazy. Kudos.
Dirk/Kobe moment gives me sports tears
That last play i never noticed what Gordon did wow
Chills, in the best way possible!
The last one is so subtle that he could have only done it out of principle. He didn't care if anyone noticed.
This should be seen more often
Felt so happy watching this
3:32 "Hell of a shot" one of the many reasons Kobe is loved. RIP
Need to see more of this stuff in the NBA
This was really nice
So wholesome
That Dirk and Kobe clip hit different ! R.I.P MAMBA
Ja calling Luca 'boy' 😂
Man Morant seems like such a solid dude in most footage I see of him. Whats he doing pulling guns on highschoolers
that luka/trae moment tho...
