The best highlights from game 7 of the 2010 NBA Finals between the Boston Celtics and the Los Angeles Lakers. - Sport
Imagine being Sasha Vujacic and having to take those 2 free throws, in the last minute of Game 7 of the NBA finals. Nerves of steel.
For real. He had to be on fuckin cloud 9 after making those. You'd feel like the biggest bad ass ever, hahaha. Even if you sucked ass the rest of your career, you'd always have that in your back pocket.
So Sasha what is the most valuable thing in your life?
Well obviously making those free throws.
So that's more valuable to you than your wife and kids?
Oh, one HUUNDRED percent
Vujacic Locked in the chip.
Give him a statue in front of Staple for that.
Was thinking the same thing then and now.
The dude can perform under pressure, he was on the Slovenia national team and was a star, he’s no scrub
This is basketball. No stat padding, no hugging and kissing, no trying to look pretty. Just straight grit and grind, blood and sweat, cuts and bruises.....man I miss Kobe
@Lisa Rose Please read it again. Yea he did go 6-24 but did he cry about it? No he still grinded and did everything else he could. And I wasn't just talking about Kobe. I was talking about basketball as a whole. Please learn reading comprehension
JG Shaolin Terrific Facts 💯 RIP Kobe 💜💛💜💛
Lisa Rose they still won 🤷🏽♀️🤷🏽♀️😂
I think you’re describing MMA
@Lisa Rose all of them shot terrible because of the defense of both team played at that game.
thats why defense wins championship
4th Quarter and the score is still 60-70's. Both teams Defense goes hard. Still one of the best Finals I've seen
Great defense or not, the 2 teams shooting 36.4% from the field and 27.8% from three is bad offense more than anything else
@@chuckyjamesamartin1968 From the top seeds in their respective conference...bad offense is a consequence of really good defense
@@daddyinacaddy Or just some bad luck that certain shots weren't falling
@@daddyinacaddy Yup.
@@chuckyjamesamartin1968 Nope.
After almost 12 years
still gives me chills
RIP KOBE
Look at Kobe man you can tell how hungry he was for that chip, Manz was holding on to his dear life when Sasha Took them Free throw shots 🤣🤣🤣
@@DonMaximus98 Kobe was bad this game…
@@mikemoggerson6651 he always got doubled tripled
@@mikemoggerson6651 lol everyone was you dumb fuck. boston shot 40% from the field while the Lakers shot only 32%! but pau 18 and kobes 15 rebounds gave them enough chances to pull of the win. they just wanted this one more thats why kobe a goat. this was a grind it out defensive game. one of the greatest finals games of all time.
KG and fish were the only players that shot over 50% from the field.

As a Celtic fan I didn’t think Kobe could ever make me sadder than this moment. I was wrong. Rest In Peace Kobe Bryant. Thanks for the memories
Much respect. 🙏🏼🙏🏼

That’s why I like Celtics Fan and also the Celtics

You brought me to tears bro

你牛逼
Me too.
I think he could had six rings if didnt got injured.
This and the 2016 Finals Game 7's were two of the most exciting finals I've ever seen.
2013 Finals Game 7 joins the ones you mentioned
Kobe beat 3 or 4 all stars on celtics and was injured goat
@@chriswalls5831 2016 warriors>2010 Celtics. And Kobe was pretty mediocre in the 2010 finals. 28 ppg with barely 40% FG percentage, 30% 3p% and only 3 apg. Legend but also a comically overrated player. He was statistically never as clutch as Lebron
@@mikemoggerson6651 hater. What's lebron's free throw % in the last 2 minutes of a game versus Kobe's? Since we want to talk clutch. What about who has the most wins in the playoffs vs 50 win teams? And who has more rings in less tries? All the stats that really matter Kobe masters. You can keep the buzzer beater statline. I'd rather have a guy knocking off top tier teams in each round of the playoffs on his way to dominate the entire league not just a conference for ten years, going to the finals 7 times and winning 5. Oh and don't forget the Lakers were down 3-2 this series and won game 6 in Boston thanks to Kobe's 38 on the road. Even in this game he was the leading scorer and rebounder on both teams. And no one but arterst shot a good % that's out of both teams. Oh and who just got another loss in the playoffs to a 50 win team??? Leswept
@@taraatkins4823 what was Kobe doing at 38? And Kobe wasn’t even the best player on his team for 3 of those 5 finals. He was hard carried by Shaq for the 3 peat Lmao. Kobe was statistically not clutch.
As a Celtics fan for the first time, I remembered watching this when I was in high school. It was heartbreaking that my Celtics lost and now they back in the Finals and hope they win it all. RIP Kobe Bean Bryant
They lost that one too bro

That's time im 4th yr high school 😂
At 11 years old, I thought this was one of the greatest games I've ever seen, my family were all Kobe fans, cheering and yelling in celebration, but at 21 years old today, I skipped to the last ten seconds of this classic, and seeing Gigi and the siblings, but this time I'm in tears of sadness, heartbroken because my favorite player is no longer alive. He thought us that it takes everything to be great at you do, for that ,THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING KOBE. January 26th, 2020 is a day I'll never forget.
Yeah bro same thing.I was 12 years old there and i didin't miss single finals since 2008 but so far this final better then everyone.Miami dallas was epic but this year was something else.I alsa cried watching this all good memories childhood time love of ball and fav player so far kobe.The world fucking so empty and nothing to worry about this Lie world.U cant know whats ur future going to or after 5 min later u cant predict the life.But im so happy to watch prime kobe.RIP Mamba we will always love you :(

Reviving this historic rivalry
Two prized fighters going toe to toe in the trenches, just like back in the 80s.
Tough, rugged, raw, relentless determination on both teams. So fortunate to have witnessed this game 7 live
Bro i just watched this and it felt exactly like a heavyweight fight with both side going blow for blow.
I was unemployed that time. So thankful i was just at home to watch this game.
I wish RIP means "Return If Possible" . 😞
Hard to believe this was 10 years since the Lakers last won an NBA Title with Kobe Bryant and 10 years since we last saw the Lakers battle the Celtics in the NBA Finals
God Bless You Kobe Bryant and Thank You for all your contributions to the NBA and to the World of Professional Sports

It's insane seeing the role players play with such aggression and grit 💯! You can tell Kobe drilled the mamba mentality into everyone he played with 🐍 🏆
Man that rebuild time was when that core group gelled after years of grinding. Sasha, Luke, Odom, Bynum…then the addition of Gasol….Fisher doing the Jazz dirty…great times…. Those last two championships were hard earned…Loved that team.
Still has this teary eyes and goosebumps watching this very intense game 7 finals.. RIP Kobe!!!..Thank you for all your Jordanese within you!!.. 🙏
Same! I’m over here with goosebumps and teary eyes as well. Amazing memories!
As a Lakers fan, this was the most stressful game ever.
RIP Kobe
Noc4ball bro ! I had 4 Kobe jerseys on by the 4 quarter! I wouldn’t lose hope! One of the greatest memories of my life 💜💛 Rest In Peace KO8E24
Should have lost, game was rigged.
Ron artest was the MVP

On God bro my hairline went back a few inches
We miss you Kobe , always in our heart
😊
Thanks for the YT algorithm, this series still makes me touched. The defense and competitiveness is real, no matter how the league have changed, it still brings me back to that perfect era.
We miss Kobe so much…
From 2023.
In my mind, this was Kobe's best, grittiest game ever - Game 7 smashball, low-scoring/defense/duke-it-out... last man standing
Kobe sucked in that game... he shot 6 out of 24, had 4 tournovers, andshot 0,733% in freethrows..
@@sanderkonto297 you didn't mention the 15 rebounds
Facts everybody shot terrible this game (both teams) Kobe just took more shots I think Pau was the only 1 who shot decent if I recall
This was literally one of his worst games, lol. He didn't deserve this win.
@@2345allthebest Also, Kobe's job was to score the basketball. He isn't Dennis Rodman, the only reason he got 15 boards was because he couldn't do anything else.
I remember Ron Artest’s clutch three,
But I totally forgot about Vujacic clutch free throws.
That was a high pressure high risk situation, he barely plays the whole finals series and just comes in and sinks two clutch free throws.
Put some respect on his name!
Datu Puti saša vujecic played a decent amount. I think more than at least Luke Walton…
TheLocalLt walton never played yet made millions a year 🤣
K well he played when the Lakers weren’t that good, that’s how he made bank. Pretty sure he was a starter in the 2008 Finals but the 2010 Lakers were a much deeper team than 08 and he became a benchwarmer
they called him the machine for a reason
Didn’t even hit the net
PUT SOME RESPECT ON PAU GASOL'S NAME
Kobe bryant
Kobe dickriders give no respect to Pau or Shaq
Pau was a big factor in this!! Much love to him💕
Factz with out him it was over
pau is playing great here, he is a really good center but now he is older, he is not what he used to be
One of the most happiest days of my life, I got to witness greatness
kobe's greatness 🔥 6/24 fg 0-6 3pt fg. mamba mentality 🔥💥
One the best game 7 of all time 🔥
I miss this Lakers team
I miss Ron Artest doing crazy things
I miss Pau Gasol screaming after every layup
I miss Andrew Bynum getting injured
I miss Shannon Brown jumping out the gym
I miss Phil Jackson coaching
And most importantly I miss Kobe doing his thing
I just miss Kobe. Period. 😢
I miss the 2008-2010 lakers... bring back all the guys, trevor ariza, lamar odom, shannon brown, jordan farmar.. solid underrated players
Don't forget Lamar n Fish

I wish I miss prime Kobe and Gasol Lakeshow
As a laker fan its hard not to get emotional especially since bryants passing thank you for the memories
Man remember when he got drafted and traded to the Lake Show….97 vs the Jazz….to Shaq….then the rebuild….the grind…then Gasol Odom Artest Ariza….Lol Phil fkn Jackson……first 3 were awesome, the last two were truly earned….special time and place…
You can see the trust to their teammates that is Mamba Mentality 👍
RIP Kobe Bryant 🏀🏅
Best player of all time 🏆🥇
mamba mentality 🔥🔥 6/24 fg, 0-6 3pt fg
Attempting 24 shots and only hitting 6 of them, and only made 2 assists. I can see the trust on the teammates lmao
This comment is for ALL the idiots who say "Kobe didn't deserve Finals MVP."
Kobe's averages in the 2010 NBA Finals up until Game 7:
• 30 Points Per Game
• 7 Rebounds Per Game
• 4.2 Assists Per Game
• 2.5 Steals Per Game
• 1 Block Per Game
• 44% FG%
• 37% 3P%
• 93% FT%
And most people that try to discredit his Game 7 performance don't even realize that he still played great defense, GOT 15 REBOUNDS AS A SHOOTING GUARD, and got to the line plenty while being very clutch and efficient. Kobe knew his shoot wasn't falling, so he used his diverse skillset and basketball I.Q to impact the game in other ways to help his team win, that's called greatness! And on top of that, EVERYONE on both teams shoot poorly in Game 7. And in addition, Kobe also had a fractured finger on his shooting hand. I find it funny how all haters can say is "Kobe shot 6-24" without acknowledging or mentioning ANY of these facts.
In short, people should do their research and learn a thing or two about the game of basketball before trying to diminish Kobe's greatness in the 2010 Finals.
Haters only see one bad game 😅
I never knew kobe have basketball I.Q that way bricks shot is that basketball I.Q ?
Androssi Zahard your IQ is not that good.
Victor Oladipo that's an understatement
GTFOH Kobe shot 6-24 and grabbed 15 rebounds almost all defensive ones while gasol shot 6-16 and grabbed 18 rebounds (9 offensive). What i want to say with this is that kobe wasn't alone. He had gasol (hof lock), shooters like artest and odom, a x-factor like fisher and the most important one... Vujacic. (Kobe deserved the FMVP)
Luke walton with an outstanding double-double performance 25 highfives and 50 claps in this game
Chromel Alumel all for kobe shot attempts too*🤣
Hahaha
howard break that record during the okc vs miami finals
Y’all dumb for these stats
Atleast that time they support and respect each other, everytime lakers call a timeout they hug and give high five not like today's lakers lol
As a Kobe-Generation person growing up watching the Lakers golden days with Kobe Bryant, this is the best Lakers game ever I watched. This will never be forgotten.
I miss this NBA. Still in 2010 we still could enjoy having physicality, tough defense, no ball carrying, no illegal screens, no 3p no touch rule, and so on that made matches really really exciting. NBA got ruin in just 12 years.
Im seeing a reminder here that Pau Gasol was truly elite at this point in his career
Was legit convo that Pau was the Finals MVP. Unspoken Laker legend
Hx
7 game series? Pau gasol? Nope! Kobe average 25 plus points in this series... on in game 7 run out of fuel.u cant give a finals mvp on 1 game.kobe desereved the trophy
Roy Gumban And Kobe played Phenomenal defense as he always does he was the best defender in the series
I forgot Kobe shooting free throws are ONE OF THE BEST PLAYS OF A GAME 7
:D
Yup CLUTCH
StCShortFilms If he missed few of those they would have lost
+StCShortFilms if you dont think free throws are relevant in a huge game then you dont know basketball. Not to mention the fact that he made a lot of them.
The refs were the real mvp for lakers in game 7
Damn...I was at my 8th grade end of year awards when this game was on...I got home and remember rushing to turn onto abc and it was end of 3rd quarter....gives me chills seeing Kobe extremely focused and intense
They got favored by the refs, it was so bad, Lakers should have lost this game, all those BS fouls that weren't fouls, put the Lakers on the line, unreal!
@Mrd9960 bruh don't make excuses celtics lost. They had they chance
Back when the world was right. Still can't believe I'm saying this but R.I.P Kob. We miss and love you bruh. 💜
One of the best series of all time.... really appreciate now that I look book at the current state of the NBA.
2008-2010 was the best years of modern day basketball
JasonHoang TRUE, then the heat trade happened and it all went downhill. No more classics.
Nah I don't believe that. The Mavericks and Spurs have given the heat a run for their money
k
doctorcpa1 So the game 7 of Heat and Spurs wasn't a classic? Cmon that was one of the best finals ever
This is the best defensive display on a Game 7 Finals. Bruh both teams are willing to die just to win.
Soopafly nba is not like this anymore believr that
LeBron’s in 2016 was just as good, if not better. When he blocked Iguodala like that, you know he was willing to die to win.
Best defense? They only showed a couple blocks and Kobe shootimg very contested shots.
Ernesto Diaz this is only the highlights not the whole game..watch the whole game instead of yelling your ass in a youtube comment without knowing the whole detail
05
WE DID IT AGAIN
Fisher is to goated how his shot flies in the air and knows it’s straight butter from the 3 or 2
One of the happiest days of my life. Missed grad night for this game. No regrets
Arnold Matthews lakerssss
You made the right choice fuck grad night lol
I literally can’t believe how you would feel if they lost
FUCK GRAD NIGHT HAHAHAHHAA
Arnold Matthews idk, my grad night was one of the best nights of my life 🙏🏼
Every time im sad, because of the Lakers' bad seasons, I just come back here and watch these past great moments. I remember every finals games, my dad wouldn't go to work and I wouldn't go to school, just so we could watch the Lakers win championships. Despite being born in 2000, ive loved the Lakers longer than I can remember. I hope the Lakers can get back on track, and get Kobe his 6th ring. Go Lakers!!
Obviously they will come back and win more championships, I'm a celtics fan and either though we're in the playoffs I still know that they will get knocked out in the first round, I really don't even wanna make the playoffs anyway, but honestly I don't think Kobe has a chance of winning his 6th ring...if he comes back next season, that'll be his last season for sure. I'm sorry to say it bro. One day the celtics and lakers will be back in the finals head to to in another classic, amazing round of 7 series that I can't wait for!!!
Yea im a Clippers fan but I have a lot of respect to Lakers fans cause obviously they won more 16 titles I think while the Clippers never won one yet. But I have faith that you guys will win another championship
Sorry for the bad English
Russel Tayson i can understand your feelings. Cz i come to see it by the same reason. keep healthy, go lakers.

such a better era of basketball, guys aren’t comparing after every call / complaining about no calls. a beautiful thing to watch
Curry ruined basketball
Man I miss Kobe.
Kobe Bryant won his fifth and final ring at the perfect time. Winning against the Celtics, at Staples Center, game 7, leaving the 2000s on top and leading the NBA into the 2010s and passing the torch to LeBron. And having the perfect final game, at home, 60 points vs Jazz, still showing his desire to be better than Michael Jordan, 60 points meaning 6-0 in the Finals vs also against the Jazz. Both hit game winners vs Jazz. He was just incredible at what he did.
Checked out vs. Utah with 4.1 on the clock, passes away at 41.
Kobe jersey number 24 and his lil girl Gigi wore number 2...24+2=26...they passed away 1/26!

In my opinion, the 2010 NBA finals will go down as the greatest NBA Finals of the 21st century. No one will ever touch that greatness of a series ever.
Pumpkin GuineaPig but the thing is, it doesn't had that iconic moment like other finals have. 98' had "The Shot". 2016 finals had "The Block". This game had what? "The freethrows" ???? Kobe and the crew got bailed out by the refs in this game to be honest. Its good for the business though so I'm not blaming NBA, Lakers was the most beloved team back then....
2016 Finals were way better. You had the block, game 5 Lebron and Kyrie both going for 40, back to back 40 point games by Lebron, the shot with a minute left in game 7 by Kyrie, etc...etc.....
Only really memorable moment of 2010 was the shot by Artest.

R.I.P Kobe "the Legend" Bryant he didn't score all the points but he rebounded and made the correct passes to get his team to win it. A real leader makes everyone else around them better.

Kobe didn’t have the best scoring night of his life. But any basketball fan can see he was still far and away the best player on the floor that night. He flat out refused to lose this game.
To tell the truth that night Gasol was the best by far, probably It was the worst Game of Kobe. But even when it was his worst game he was really important to win that night, that shows that he was absolutely the best basketball player
Kobe never gave up, missing shots but played his heart out on defence. Actually it was the clutch play of Metta World Peace (Ron Artest) really wanted that first and only championship who stepped his game up. Pau Gasol was the rebounding machine.
Statistically it was a rough slog of a match for every player on both teams. It was a test of wills and was beautiful to watch.

KOBE MY G.O.A.T ALSO RIP TO THE BEST
For all the people saying "Kobe didn't deserve Finals MVP" just because his shot was cold in Game 7 completely ignore the fact that no one really shot well that game (look it up), his index finger was injured, and he also impacted the game in other ways like defense, rebounding and getting to the foul line. And it's called "Finals MVP," not Game 7 MVP. Before Game 7, Kobe was shooting 43.2% from the field, 37.5% from 3, and 93.3% from the line. That's great efficiency playing against great defense in the NBA Finals against a team with arguably 4 All Stars. I'm also not even including his great averages when it comes to points, rebounds, steals, assists, etc...
Kobe also scored 10 points in the 4th quarter in game 7, highest in the 4th quarter
And he had 16 rebounds as a guard. He deserved every bit of that FMVP
Lakers have arguably 5 all stars. They are on par
warriors will crushed these celtics and lakers
Inday Garutay warriors wouldn’t last with this defense played game 7 or the 00’s
RIP KOBE I MISS YOU 😢😢😢 OF A LEGEND 😢😢 1978-2020😢😢
dude... the second play where they fought for the rebound oh my goodness. this is the type of basketball i love to see... straight chills
Warriors-Cavs will never be on the same level of intensity as the Lakers-Celtics rivalry. Ever.
right
what about Heat vs Spurs?
+XxNovusxX XxOrdoxX That was intense but Lakers-Celtics rivalry in the finals will always be the best
Of course the Lakers-Celtics have history going back decades while these current finals is 2 years long.
Cavs aint our rivals cuz they aint no match for us
R.I.P. Kobe Bryant. NBA Legend. The game will never see someone like you again. I'm at a loss of words...
I miss you kobe 🥺
As a lifelong Celtics fan, this climatic game 7 was one of the most intense playoff battles I've ever seen. Losing Kendrick Perkins to a torn ACL in game six hurt, and with Rasheed Wallace playing with a herniated disc in his back didn't help either. What makes me sad is no longer losing this game, because you win some, you lose some. What makes me tear up and reflect is Kobe Bryant is no longer with us. I'm now 50 years old, and Kobe was just six years younger than I, and he had so much life to live, as did his daughter and the other souls that perished on that day. Life just seems so different, and not as joyful anymore. As a Celtics fan, you are very much missed Kobe Bryant...we in Boston, will never forget.
Yep. Boston beat the breaks off the Lakers in 2008, and lost a heartbreaker in 2010. That’s what makes rivalries great. The back and forth.

Jii-son Kun They still are tho
Jii-son Kun eh rftr
Alejandro Serrano i aint lebron fan or warriors fan or cavs fan ..but down to 3-0 and gsw won at 4-0..that is not what i fucking called “Exciting” i call that an instant game prediction
Yeah man the last great finals were back from 2016
I can watch this over, over, and over again. Never get old. Legendary
Ron artest first championship he needed Kobe to get it for him goat
Just looking at these old highlights instantly makes me miss Kobe and he was the type of player that you wish could play forever!
I'm a celtics fan but damn, what a great series and even though there's a rivalry between us, I really like the lakers and I'm hoping for a rematch in the finals soon. Lakers vs Celtics, greatest rivalry of all time!
No first take the warriors in a 6 game series and beat Lebron and have Boston go nuts when u sweep them 👍🏾 - laker fan
KD to Boston and Westbrook to LA to renew the rivalry lol
+Slightly Biased Kevin Durant Fan That would be so damn crazy!
+Master Roshi how about KD TO DC AND WESTBROOK TO LA TO DC VS LA OR NEW YORK VS LA KD TO NY & WB TO LA
+Master Roshi or Have New York vs Boston KD to Boston and Westbrook to the Knicks
Man... the old days when referees weren’t so sensitive smh 😢
also the players who keeps crying about not having the free throw line.
La shot 36 free throws this game..
Amir Adem lakes got literally every fucking call this game
@@Gogetta80 all of em 😒😒
Go Celtics 😂😂♣
They were literally the reason LA won man.
Got tears coming out seeing how happy kobe was and a great basketball player R.I.P KOBE&GIGI
Our generation’s team! Lakers forever greetings from Whittier California!💜💛
12:57 should be the design of his statue at Staples.
I agree!!!
Yessssssss
GC I concur 100% and it’s not because I said the same thing. He did the same when him and Shaq got their first ring in 01.
I agree,too.
I love this his BACK.
I think itll be the infamous Kobe fadeaway
Who's here after NBA Finals 2019?
steven leeward onofre me
Big Fan of Lakers
big fan of Kobe.
Este
This season repeat his finals in 2023 nba celtics vs lakers
Became a lakers fan since 09 because of KOBE.This year,we won it for him RIP MAMBA 🐍💜💛
REST IN PEACE KOBE! I remember being 9 years old sitting in front of the TV watching this game like it was just yesterday. May you rest in peace with your beautiful daughter GiGi! 🙏
Me too bro i remember watching this w mom n dad n my big brother who was the biggest kobe fan ever n laker fan and towards the end he yelled "THIS IS WHY THE LAKERS DESERVE TO WIN THE CHAMPIONSHIP THIS YEAR THIS IS THEIR YEAR" AFTER kobes clutch shot
No feeling As a Laker Fan would be matched then beating Boston in Game 7 For me. This was one of my Favorite Laker Moments
True, i cried when they lost to the celtics in game 6 2 years before this happened. A sweet revenge
agree
Daniel Barwatt man I was a Cs fan back then I hated the lakers with a passion I cried after this game because Boston had control over this game majority of the time
very sweet revenge,that was awesome
Celtics 6 game series win is still better than Lakers' in 2010.
I still come to your videos and watch them. Especially the ones about Chauncey Billups. I really appreciate that you were taking a lot of subscriber requests and following through with them. You gained a lot of my respect and you still have it after all these years
Put Respect on my boy Ron Artest. Ron had 2 big shots in the playoffs. 1 vs Suns game winner and a 3 pointer that put Lakers up by 6 points in 1 min.
Look how low the score was. Defence was intense
That's what I'm thinking. Also how ridiculous fouls are these days, little taps get you sent to the line. Crazy how much the game changes in a 10 year span.
Anton Smith so there’s only good defense when it’s a low scoring game?
Game 7s are traditionally low scoring games. The Cavs-Warriors 2016 was 93-89, The Sixers-Raptors 2019 was 92-90, etc.
Both teams are very burnt out and they’re expected to give their 110% and then some.
theres no defense , its just a low scoring game and kobe missed a lot of shots lol just telling the truth
@@johnpaulmarquez5864 "There's no defense" Lol, no kid. Ray Allen shot 3-14, Pierce shot 5-15. Everyone was dog shit except Garnett, lmao
I still wish that 2k includes these two legendary teams
They already have the 08 celtics.
SK yeah but they need 09 or 10 Lakers
I have the 09 and 10 lakers thru the dest roster
Its a legit roster my fave is the 09
SERIOUSLY, I've been screaming it for years this Lakers team should be on 2k, its one of the weirdest gaps in the otherwise great classic team lineup
I remember, as a kid, watching these games, waking up 1-2 AM here in Poland, staying till like 5-6 AM then go to school to discuss the results with my friends. LAL vs BC rivalry - Bryant-Gasol-MWP-Fisher-Odom vs Pierce-Allen-Perkins-Rondo-Garnett was tough, competitive and inspiring. I feel these were completely different times...
CZcams is like a time machine for everything! Sports, Music, News, Memories, History, and all of the above! I miss Kobe & Gianna Bryant:( May they rest in peace & be remembered forever!! God bless!! Make World Peace!
Yes kids, the finals were fun to watch some years.
especially all those bandwagons hahaha they will never know
I was a kid back then
Look at the score. They played tough defense and not just jacking up 3s.
Peter Stark the score was as low in the 2016 finals chil
@@mufidlassissi5058 it was. Thanks to refs controling the tempo, preventing every warriors run, to make it a tight game.
BTW it's included in the most rigged finals like the 06.
Watching this and Still feel like Kobe is alive.
Thank you CZcams for still having this 🙏
One of my favs to look back on
"Good job, baby!" -Adam Morrison
Who would of thought 10 years later Kobe would be dead, and lakers would win there 17th championship 🤦🏻♂️😢
Don't say dead 😭

@@EZYxProven nigga what you expect him to say? Deceased? Unalive? That king definitely ain’t living.
@@explicitwalrus6489 lmao... I'd go with unalive.
@Hauger shame on him..dribble and shut up. Am i right. Its not like he's also..a..human...hmmm. Ur a fuckin idiot bro
I missed this team, solid all around, what an amazing finals!
