  • One major part of Kobe Bryant's career that rarely gets talked about is his rookie season which was filled with many challenges. None of those challenges was bigger than his heated relationship with his coach Del Harris. In this video I discuss Kobe's early years and his path from the draft, to a bench player to the legend we now see him as.

      Not probably,, he would've,, we've saw him in 99 developing into a top 3 player in the league from then until 2013 because he finally started getting minutes in 99,, 2000 he was a top 3 player already,, all he needed was more minutes and they would've won a ring in 98 or 99

    Kobe was shooting left hand jumpers. Kobe would’ve developed faster than we saw. I’m taking West words as he said Kobe at 17 is the most developed player he ever seen.

This is the most important part of Kobe Bryant being the second best player ever is that he had to come up and work on his game constantly to become great him missing all of those three-pointers against Utah was the best thing that could’ve happened to him. Do you not understand that failure creates greatness when you’re an alpha male

    What do yall think he woulda developed into? A scorer? Yall act like he developed his game to become a great rebounder, or an excellent passer, or a great leader, or the defensive anchor to his teams. Kobe was the same kobe in year 1 as he was in year 19. Stop changing history!
