I honestly feel like this NBA finals doesn’t get talked about enough because this was the start of arguably the greatest decade of basketball of all time with a bang
End of a era capped by the “Decision” a few weeks later Lebron ushered in the weak load managing super team hoping era traveling no defense NBA we see today
2010 NBA FINAls are SUPER underrated. Defensive showcase. Artest getting like 7 steals in game 7. Kobe getting doubled/tripled teamed. every loose ball was a wrestling match. Refs let players play on. It was the last finals series that was a defensive master class. End of the slowest paced era in NBA history.
@@hardwoodthought1213 Lol go to 12:29 kobe getting doubled by Allen and Wallace... There's plenty of examples throughout the entire series. you wouldn't have had to ask this question if you actually watched the game. but I can tell you are a gen z kid. go back and watch the etnire series.
@@hardwoodthought1213that’s why they shouldn’t let people like u comment ik u ain’t watch that whole series he was getting doubled the whole series with injury 😂 casual
@@DeLGhXst he was leding Boston in scoring asst and steals had a triple double look what he did to the Magic in the ECF even Rondó said Kobe out play him
That game 7 was amazing. Worst game in NBA Finals history for boxscore lovers I guess, but the way they were fighting with the stakes at their highest was simply amazing. A good game to learn that stats are not everything. And about that Fisher layup, I think I speak for most, if not all Lakers fans at the time, that when he jumped for the layup, we were all like "What the fuck are you doing D- YESSSSSS, WELL DONE DEREK!!!"
Whilst I enjoy the game, you can’t deny it was bad basketball. People assume low scores equal elite defence when in truth it was partially great defence and partially bad offence by tired players and largely unskilled teams
@@hardwoodthought1213 I can absolutely deny it. And I'm not even going to get into the unskilled teams part. Lets just agree we have very different views of basketball, and I'll just say that I'm glad you enjoyed the game.
@@hardwoodthought1213 Or it could be good defense makes you tired if every bucket requires full effort without easy uncontested drives to the hoop like nowadays while jacking up endless 3s and crying for fouls. And how was KG, Kobe, Ray Allen & Rondo not skilled? I want to hear this BS🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@hardwoodthought1213 Unskilled? I can’t see that. Tired? Yes. They were tired, and they played great defense. It should also be recognized that that doesn’t mean their shooting was perfect. They were as skilled as ever, but not all the shooting was there, and ofc the defense was suffocating
These videos are incredible, this guy is underrated. The edits on 7:08 and 8:24 are next level 🔥 I also really like that the insane Kobe edit starts at the 8 minute and 24 second mark (8,24) his numbers 👏🏼👏🏼 The title for my favorite RUclips channel is now a 3-way tie between JxmyHighroller, BigTime and this channel 🤝🏼
I cried when Lakers won game 7. that was such a grind game. def from both sides. kobe playing with a torn ligament. i missed this type of level of basketball
As a lakers fan thank you for this video. I was 14 during that championship and I will never forget it. My emotions are high right now because this was the last great year of lakers for a good while.
This was such a well put together video I really appreciate it and I love how it highlights for me the day I became a Kobe and lakers fan! Crazy to think that was Almost 15 years ago
As a die-hard Kobe fan and having watched every glimpse of video in every possible way, including his all-time rivalries, this is definitely the best vid about 2010 NBA FINALS, even better than ESPN and the NBA channel itself. You deserve a million subs dude.
I appreciate these NBA Finals videos that display pure basketball! Can’t stand how the game is played these days. Nice editing skills and voiceover work.
I loved MJ but never saw him in his prime. I remember being 8 or 9 when I watched this game. I'm from India & basketball ain't really that famous but my dad was a sports junkie. I remember sitting with him early in the morning and watching the game. I didn't understand a thing but I was just in awe of the players. I remember asking my dad who is this 24 guy? And his words were "That's Kobe, the second best player after MJ." Each time I watch basketball it brings back the memories of my old man. I hope he and Kobe are looking down from there.
That 2010 NBA finals deserves to be mentioned At that time, I’m glad Kobe did win his 5th ring and people from the media were saying “he couldn’t win without Shaq” … But in 2009 & 2010. Kobe prove the point that he can win without Shaquille O’Neal and also a fun fact he won back to back championships without a top 75 Player And also, I think some people don’t want to admit that the Boston Celtics was a super team in 2010 And you have 4 All-Stars on that squad..
I remember everything just like it was yesterday every bar every lounge in LA was playing this games what an era, thanks black mamba for all the great memories we had Lakers nation till we die.
Some feedback: Audio quality is perfect, footage is perfect, and pacing is perfect. There's some weird editing choices with the bane voice and the joker voiceover since Jokic is called Joker. A line like 'and then the mamba struck' or 'the Mamba's strike finds its mark. again. and again. and again' could work. 9:11 can have a smoother flow if you swap the order of who you talk about. Since the Celtics won, talk about how Kobe was putting the pressure on and then talk about how Pierce had a 'knockout performance, shooting...'. Kobe throws the first punch, Pierce counters, Celtics win. Solid video that had me excited from the first minute. Well done.
After watching countless RUclips Videos on this NBA Finals, I can say this is the best Video by far. Its concise, and the editing and storytelling is brilliant. I will like to see how you will replicate this brilliance for the 2004 NBA Finals.
Not sure about the Celtics being 'old' compared to the lakers here. Both Pierce and Kobe were 32, Fisher was 36, Gasol was 30 and Artest and Odom were 31. Bynum was 23 sure but Rondo was 24.
This is one of the series that made me love the NBA.. and why I love Kobe. He was the perfect villain . Gave us Celtic fans somebody to Hate. RIP the real GOAT
this was one of the most evenly matched/difficult series ever. when guys like kobe and ray allen are struggling so much you can just imagine how insane the defense was.
Yep this is true. It was Wade, not Lebron, that felt furious watching the Finals. He felt like the gap between his team and what he was watching in the Finals was immeasurable. If Lebron hadn’t come to Miami, Wade admitted he would’ve forced his way to Chicago
From the clips of that game 7, this looks like two old head teams that would not take no for an answer. Doing everything they possibly could to get what would probably be their last title. That’s the kind of intensity you love to see. RIP Kobe.
You have to give a compliment to the Celtics they went to a very deep playoff run and pushed the lakers to 7 games and theirs were 4 points short for a nba title.
3:05 this is the excellence of gasol, while he is probably overrated because the media isnt on Kobes hype train anymore, he made hustle plays and was a guy kobe respected.
@@BeanSneaksPHIt was because of the injuries and suspensions imo. It's the greatest achievement outta the 3 but to me I agree it's the actual worst finals outta the 3.
I was going into my Sophomore year in college at the time andnI was at the edge of my sit the entire time! As a Lakers fan this was the most satisfying win I ever experienced! I miss the Mamba 😭😭😭
The all stars are all aging. Perkins was injured. Even Dirk played with a broken finger and produced a masterclass against Miami which had 3HoF players, drafted top 5 in '03 draft.
Kobe was carried by 2 HoF centers that constantly bailed him out among other lakers stars be played with. You know why Kobe will never be top 5? Because he was an arrogant brick chucking narcissist that cared more about his own stats, than the team winning. You’re praising a player that missed more shots than any play ever without even having the most points scored to justify it 🤡 38% chucking idiot.
This series was intense! Remember watching it as a kid and just praying to god the lakers somehow pulled thru. Ahh...the last great finals series in my opinion. Hasnt been like one like this since
I don't think it's underrated. Both the 09, and especially, 2010 Finals is the reason why Kobe is a mostly consensus top 10 all time player; and at the time elevated Kobe to being top 5 in many all time list by people like Charles Barkley, etc (obviously this is before Kobe's decline post 2010, and LeBron's ascension, etc.).
I remember being a Celtics fan during that time & it seemed like the magic was going to the finals. Dwight Howard was all over the place during that series & had us kinda nervous lol
I honestly feel like this NBA finals doesn’t get talked about enough because this was the start of arguably the greatest decade of basketball of all time with a bang
Or the end of the greatest decade. This feels like the last gasp of the 2000's. That was a tough grind it out series

Except scoring, lol

That was one of my favorite nba finals. It would also be the last nba finals for the lakers when jerry buss was alive. 10 nba titles.
Great video. Editing and story telling is top notch. I subscribed after the first 4 minutes. Thank you for the content
4:26 was only a small factor. It was Kobe winning that years ring that caused the big three to form. Wade has since admitted it on some podcast.
Yep this is true. It was Wade, not Lebron, that felt furious watching the Finals. He felt like the gap between his team and what he was watching in the Finals was immeasurable. If Lebron hadn’t come to Miami, Wade admitted he would’ve forced his way to Chicago

One of my Fav finals. Along with Dirks 2011 and Lebrons 2016
Game 7 of the 2010 NBA Finals is an all time classic. Its a toss up between that and Warriors Cavs 2016 Game 7
What’s the name of the track at 8:24? The bane quote with the joker laugh are a nice touch as well
Kobe played through a bum knee and broken index finger and beat the Celtics with 4 all stars. And people say he’s not top 5 😂.
The all stars are all aging. Perkins was injured. Even Dirk played with a broken finger and produced a masterclass against Miami which had 3HoF players, drafted top 5 in '03 draft.
Kobe is top 3 nobody say he ain’t top 5. I got him at 2.
I believe he had shoulder and back issues too.
@@ericburton1244I don't think he's top 10
