![[FULL] Kobe Bryant's 2017 interview on First Take](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/SGR0sMHLizA/mqdefault.jpg)
When Matt said; “it was supposed to be a two part interview” my heart broke all over again.
Miss you Kob 💔
Kobe > LeFlop
Matt has done this literal interview 100 times. I listen each time lol
😂😂 facts ... Each time it gets better🙌🏾
You can tell Matt still gets choked up about it
Shaq too
I watched his interview with Kobe the day it dropped and called friends telling them “this older Kobe” shares so much more and how much I loved it. I think it’s a small part of why it was so shocking and I sat in disbelief when he passed. Cliche but I thought to myself, “but I just saw him.” 😢
I know we all gotta go but some people you just don’t expect to die till they like 80 or 90.. Kobe was one them!
As George Carlin once said, Yeah? Didn’t help.
Same. We finally was getting the personal side of kob Zander then it was snatched away
From enemies to brother's... It don't get no better... RIP KOBE AND GIGI.. we still love yall 🙏
Kobe was a true Renaissance Man. I wish we could have seen all the other things he would have accomplished in his life.
its so so so sad that we won't be able to see what Kobe's next phase would have brought to the world.
He was abt to play Kang the conqueror in the next phase,
Yep... i was waiting for it, too. More than any other retired athlete.
This is his next phase
We did see a glimpse. He created a book , won an Oscar for his short video productions
We did see it. Sanctimonious cartoons and ‘analysis’.
I miss Kobe so much! 😢 So many stories and so much wisdom lost. And we'll never know what he could have accomplished in the future 💔 one of the greatest men to walk the Earth.
Yeah it's sad his daughter won't be the next female basketball phenom and also he could help the young players so much with his private practices. I miss that too much.
great interview. I miss Kobe.
Matt Barnes is a pretty cerebral guy. Enjoyable to listen to
Miss Kobe dearly
Just like MJ Kobe's stories will be told for generations to come !!
RIP LEGEND !!
Looked at the non flinch video again, there’s an angle from above that shows that Matt actually did fake throw the ball directly at Kobe’s head. Not to the side. The announcers at that moment were also amazed that Kobe didn’t flinch.
One of the coldest reactions of all time,, if not THE coldest.
I can't eloquently describe how I love this so much. Both were/are well spoken fiery dudes who have so much more than just the game. Love it.
Always enjoy Matt's takes
Except when it’s retweeting anti semetic stuff
@mountaingoat595 so, they are not the real jews
I think the key to success was said by Matt. No success happens without application. You have to put the work in
Love Matt. My kids went to a basketball camp hosted by him at EA.
Rip Kobe😢 we miss u homie
Love hearing these guys talk candidly.
Great interview and back story. I absolutely hated Kobe because he destroyed my kings. But hearing all these stories has made me respect him so much.
Still can't believe Kobe's gone! Rest in Power Black Mamba! 8/24 🏀
damn Matt ended those last 2 minutes beautifully with those words
This interview should have over a Million views, absolutely great insight and content👏❤️🔥
Not only did he not flinch. He didn’t even blink
Great interview
love Matty B, so well spoken and a great ambassador. Thanks for sharing a Kobe Story
What's understood doesnt need to be explained. Salute my G, we love you
Get reay-eyed hearing this story every time Matt tells it....listen to it every week probably
The Artest elbow to the back of Harden’s head was epic!
😂😂💯💯 an unnecessary as hell
Matt Barnes is awesome. RIP and god bless Kobe! You were phenomenal.
"what's understood doesn't have to be explained"
It still hurts for many of us ,you can tell they never want to say the word “death“ or “accident” or “tragedy “ and Kobe’s name together 😢
This channel deserves more love
Respect goes a long way
*I miss Kobe*
Love this guy. Tough dude
Matt Barnes was the right teammate for the right stone cold killer that is Kobe.
People don't flinch because they are slow or were caught off guard. It's a natural instict to flinch to protect yourself.
Man, that supposed “NEXT 20 YEARS” of Kobe could’ve been… something.
Incredible story. R.I.P
I swear… I get emotional every single time I hear a story about Kobe 😞
Rest of paradise Kobe different breed fasho
We Love Kobe/Gianna 😞🥺
Lakers 4 Life
which shoes is barnes wearing? looking for those
Miss you kobe
Raise you hands if anyone misses Kobe Bryant... use that Emogi..🙌
.. because I do. NBA and entire misses you Kobe... Descanza En Paz Hermano... te extramos ....
I just watched that “last interview” a few days ago. I didn’t know it was supposed to be a 2 parter…
Love you brother Matt Barnes
Yep that's how it was for me. Mentoring was huge during BMT. Also come join the Air Guard 25 and up.
The left handed stuff says so much about Mamba mentality. Not taking days off because his hand is casted. Unreal.
Funny thing with lions
Sometimes you see your brother in a fight.
Ray Lewis & Eddie George had that in football and Arturo Gatti & Micky Ward had that in boxing
Wow...Everyone Loves Kobe
Crazy how we're still talking about this 13 years later.....
The love of basketball!
Matt is a G.. Matt, Ramona, woj...for nba today.
When you see the big picture clearly the little things are just slight distractions.
Eyyyy..becky with a good hair!!
Greatness is about checking off boxes. The fact that Kobe was as talented as he was, as tall as he was, had the work ethic he had, and was also a psychopath was what made him a GOAT.
That’s a cool story!
Pretty well spoken bloke....wouldn't of guessed based on some of his clips...
i really miss Kobe 😢😢
Nice
Crazy how everyone thinks they’re right when they say “He never tried to ball fake and make him flinch”
good hair 😊
Why does he never look at the host when he is speaking ?
RIP Kobe.
Respect , MATT left the warriors too early .
Salute MB
Matt wasn’t actually in front of Kobe for that ball fake
Sure he was. Directly in front of him. I think the point you're trying to make is that the angle most seen via clips shows that the ball was thrust directly in Kobe's face, but it was slightly, just slightly, to the side of his face. In reality, same difference.
He pretty much was and faked the ball a little right so it was right in front of Kobe's face.
This is correct, way back Barnes used to acknowledge that it was just the camera angle. I guess he just now leans into the legend.
@@bakerman10 Thank you for educating these pathetic LeBron fans.
It was because Kobe was moving side to side by definitely in front of matt
"wait until you see what i do these next 20 years"
ayo who's cutting onions around me?
tear jerker just hearing this
💯
😥 ....damn man gone too soon.
Barnes not my fav player to say the least ...but good memories he had with KOBE 😊
Y'all see what Shaq has done off the court. KOBE would have been special.
Kobe put a lot of NBA players to shame like Matt Barnes , due to Kobe's work ethic and developed talent
Rip Kobe
Such a tragedy to lose Kobe.
L eye contact 🤣
An overall feel good interview.
Kobe would have won every award he would set his mind to 😢
Rip
Funny how memory changes over time. Top view of same inbound pass shows Barnes was actually several feet away from Kobe when he faked the inbounds pass. Camera angle makes it look like Kobe was directly in front of Barnes. Nevertheless, Barnes sure loves telling this fake story though😂
巴爷，你是最棒的， you are the BEST teammate
Matts a real one rip kobe
Wait till you see what his final dance will be!
It's going to be fun to play the LeBron Legacy mode in NBA 2K 20 something or hopefully another successful title emerges...
1. Game 6 Boston
2. 3-1 finals comeback
3. 25pts 4th Quarter vs Pistons
4. 1st Rookie game
5. Game 7 vs Spurs
6. 1st Championship game
7. All time scoring record game
8. Bubble championship
9. 1st all star game
10. Pick a moment...
Highly anticipating, don't need it up @2KSports or @EASports
Oh ok we’re still talking about it
The only word/sound thats missing is "snort"
rip kobe
Did eisen not even catch that the flinch was the altercation barnes was talking about the whole damn time???
What flinch?
He didnt want to play with someone who doesnt have his type of mindset!
Matt Barnes is honestly one of the best analysts in the game he kinda reminds me of Chris Broussard
I love how Matt Barnes said it was a battle, but I think he didn’t even score double digits and Kobe scored 30?
Same thing Jordan did. He was sick of playing against dennis rodman, recruited him instead.
Funny how he needed a Bad Boy to get over the hump
@@jerrylewis788 Rodman wasn’t even part of his first three peat.
Orlando letting Barnes go (and getting carter) was a big mistake
Goat Jr.
the "ball fake" was fake , viewed from different angle it was not in front of Kobe's face it was to the side.
Hilarious. These people actually believe their side projects would be successful without the sports careers. There are a LOT of people getting up before 6 and living paycheck to paycheck.
Matt is such a likeable character..
