Seeing shaq tell kobe to put on his own jersey was one of the most respectful thing I've ever see basically telling kobe your a icon now straight respect. And this is why when talking about the GOATS of the NBA and kobe is not mentioned Shaq gets truly upset. Love you big man Shaq. And RIP KOBE and GIGI.
This is what players today (and their fans) don't understand. You give respect to get it. Honor those that pave the way because you all are standing on their shoulders.
@@Wis_Dom they do understand that… it be y’all haters trying to use the legends to shit on the new stars… All of the new players show respect to the past greats
@@shawtyeatemup1352 idk if he needed the confidence, but we all were young once and needed some assurance. Shaq could’ve not said anything and let him rock whatever, but he told him to to take off MJ’s jersey and start rocking his own. Whether Kobe admitted or not, you can tell just by his expression afterwards that they gave him a boost.
They always make it seem like he just wore mjs jersey to feed into the narrative that he wanted to be him, thanks for including the fact that there were other legend's jersey he wore as well for those that didnt see his first championships
Kobe understood rhe assignment. He knew what was on the line & showed up to ecery game paying homage to some of the greatest sportsmen to have lived. Rest Easy fam.
Still so sad that we lost one of the greatest NBA legends too early. He could have done anything he wanted but was being a family man and mentor. It's even saddest that his wife lost a child and her husband.
I've watched this countless times just to hear Shaq say take that jersey off and put your own jersey on and Kobe saying it's that time now and their responses 💯🫂💯💪🏾
Shaq had been calling Kobe "the greatest player in the league..by far" for just over a year at that point. That particular moment before the clip, he told Kobe "Congratulations, Greatest." Kobe said "Congratulations, Most Dominant.". Nothing but respect between the two
I know !! He’s the reason that I always and forever will rock those type of shades. Just super smooth man. Dope ass swag. LIP Mamba. Love you forever Kob❤😢Myboy
"Baddest duo ever" is literally an understatement. No one did it even nearly closely like they did. I know they disagreed off the court but on the court was pure chemistry.
As an Australian, never really had the opportunity to watch Kobe. I caught on at his death, as someone who loves sports. I feel like I missed something great. What a great man, true purest of sport.
Kobe used to live around my hometown and got our grocery store. He was always super nice and kind and extremely humble. Where we are from we have this thing called the sawdust festival and one of our best family freinds runs a booth there. Kobe came Up to her stall and bought one of her items(she knows nothing abt ball) he started a convo with her and she asked what he did he told her he was just a bball player and she asked “r u any good😭” Kobe responded with “I’m alr” and then his wife told her he played for the lakers to which our freind responded “ oh do yk Kobe Bryant” then he told her. Our uncle lives in calabash’s about .5 miles from the helicopter crash and he saw it happen. Rip Kobe a true legend ❤
Still can’t believe he’s gone…and I absolutely hate the Lakers. And, he’s the reason why…the man was that good. He even carried the admiration of those who didn’t like him because of his skill.
Dude stop with the race baiting bullshit. A sports legend respects other sports legends no matter the sport or race. But we know you NHL fans and your racist bullshit so it's no surprise.
Perhaps very few ppl have seen photos of KBryant with even soccer players jerseys on.. he even had his own 24 soccer team jersey on at some point and played, and hang out with soccer greats
I remember that series like it was yesterday Kobe (Batman) came out of the gate swinging Shaq (Superman) was as dominant as he had ever been New Jersey stood no chance I loved how Kob paid homage to the all time great sports legends of yesteryear by wearing their jersey numbers Those two were the most dynamic duo I’ve ever seen in basketball

Never figured out why no one ever spoke of Kareem #33 and it took over thirty years for someone who skipped high school because of his talent to pass his scoring title among other things he achieved.
This just showed how Kobe respects great Players before him. Unlike someone proclaiming and keeps everyone reminded daily that he's the GOAt ever, using his media. Le floppy James
