1998-2008 kobe made me appreciate the midrange , 2009-2016 taught me how to expand my game by utilizing fundamentals , skill set, footwork and the post.
I’ve never seen an athlete be so content and focused on life after playing. Like Mike Greenberg said, this dude dropped 60 in his last game, barely took his Lakers jersey off and won an Oscar “for crying out loud.” In my opinion he’s the GOAT, and what he’s been doing since he retired, working out with players, passing his knowledge down in the form of stories and art for the youth so that it keeps them interested and engaged, whether it’s his short film, his book, Detail on ESPN, is only elevating his status.
Dennis Leavitt , I’m a big Kobe fan but he isn’t better than LeBron. When the discussion of the Goat, comes up twenty years from now, it’ll still be Jordan and LeBron.
bjjtime Listen, Kobe was the villain in the NBA and very polarizing but he has always had a strong cult of personality. You will feel that Mamba charm.
Its a smart move tho. Its like u really dont retire after everything you bought to the table through the years but being able to pass on that prestige knowledge about something u love and advanced in so much to others who r upcoming in that same field of interest.
Kobe Bryant deeply wanted to imitate Michael Jordan in order to get fast recognition in the NBA. He copied Jordan's excellence, then adding the breathing concentration, he became Michael Jordan. He became the NBA's greatest. He incredibly mimicked Jordan style. He lost he's soul.
When kobe said he's concentrating on the next 20 years I felt a great sadness in my heart... God bless you kobe for showing us what a real champion thinks and acts. You were truly a blessing to the whole world.
It’s dead ass therapy when I hear kobe talk I know he doesn’t want to do anything in the Lakers front office now but man I hope he changes his mind. One of very few players who scouted legit talent he called out Giannis when he first came over, called Buddy Hield and DFox, said DLo was an opportunity away from being an all star I can go on and one I love this man kobe is my goat I don’t give a damn what no be else thinks
Lil Dagga It’s probably because he looks for his own characteristics in players, mainly being the motor and work ethic. Giannis for example sleeps and eats basketball, just like Kobe he went through traumatic experiences and used the sport as refugee. He even beat Kobe fucking Bryant to practice that sold me on Giannis, his jumper will develop because of those “Mamba Challenges” on Twitter and so on, I believe Giannis when he said he was going to take Kobe up on the challenge by shooting 1,500 shots a day in the summer. Reeks of HOF career.
My favorite athlete of all time. The man was as smart as he was gifted on the court. Beyond his gifts, in every arena of life, he dedicated his mind, body and soul to becoming the very best that he could be. Very few people can say they gave it their very best in this life. Admirable. A true role-model.
when he says he has moved on and not caring those who's the best ranking, i truly believe because he's not the type of guy lingering on their past success, he's the type of guy who's always want to improve themselves and keep conquering
"I typically do not engage in things that I can not definitively win. It's an argument. Argue for what?" - One of the most powerful lines he said, shows his TRUE competitive spirit. And true focus on winning in basketball.
i think before while playing he had no reason to be humble because he was the best player and he knew it, so really he was being authentic, and i think hes authentic now because hes not talking about himself as a player currently playing, while currently playing he wouldn't have been cocky to say hes the best because it was true, or to carry himself that way because he KNEW what he was putting into the game to be on top so he was always very sure of himself. i think kobe is misunderstood as cocky by most people, he shouldve been, what kind of athlete isnt cocky whether on the inside or the outside, you cant be competitive without a certain measure of pride in who you are and what you do, kobe just seems like a very authentic person, so when that was how he felt he exuded that self assured superiority because that was the experience he was having while competing, he was better and he knew it and he was unapologetic about it. he may be humble now but maybe that is another feeling he is having as someone not playing basketball, he could be the same person having a different experience, he's not competing with anyone in this stage of his life so his authenticity comes off as humility, as well as the fact that im sure he has matured alot over the years and he has had time to process things and learn from past experiences. but he comes off to me as a straight shooter who has nothing to hide, he is and has been just being himself
bobby jones He’s being himself according to you was cocky back then and humbled now. So humble is new to us all. I’d chose competitive over cocky though.
Watching these interviews it feels like he is still alive and that's a strong sense of comfort. His words and his wisdom make him immortal even if his physical is no longer moving among us.
For those people who doesn't know anything about Basketball watch this. The discussion is well explained, the words they use is just simpe and easy to understand. It is not just basketball it's all about passion and life.
@@theb.o.a.t.8225 Stephen A and Max don't even debate facts they just sit around debating emotion with some statistics sprinkled in. I watch it just for the drama.
Kobe always said he was never worried about the him vs jordan debate...thats just a media narrative. Lebron on the other hand says it every chance he gets smh
Love that KOBE is sharing his wisdom with kids and his new book! I've read it and I am absolutely taken back, how well crafted and how inspirational is it! Big props to the author Wesley King for a writing such a great book!
If this interview doesn't make you like/admire Kobe even more, then you're damn crazy. THIS is what greatness and true love of the game looks like. On top of that, he's so focused, driven and intelligent. I forgot how smart Kobe is. It's awesome what he's doing. He's got class and the utmost respect and love for the game, and is setting an example. You don't see much of this anymore in today's game. I do believe the lack of loyalty to franchises does and has put a stain on the NBA. So, I will disagree with him there. To me loyalty is also one of the ingredients for true greatness. So, he's retired and still making an impact. Young players should smarten up and pay attention to one of the GOATS.
The most useful 13 minutes of my life on RUclips and why not? It's my all-time favourite Basketball player speaking. Such is his greatness that you could never go wrong watching, emulating or even aping the Black Mamba. Can't wait to see him back on the court, albeit as a coach.
I love when Kobe breaks down the "dream match up" between prime Kobe Lakers vs. present GSW and his simple response was "who can impose whose will". Straight and simple and you know 110% he wanted to say he would win every time but he's a humble man these days and I like it.
Kobe is knowledgeable, especially about basketball, he's so passionate. Beautiful interview ESPN, please post more of Kobe's interview, we all love them. His writing is amazing, the way he expresses himself is like a college profess, only Kobe is more interesting, his writing is very creative he uses his imagination and that what makes his writing so creative. Thank you, Kobe, for the interview and for sharing your writing with us. Thank you.
9:18 the biggest thing no one talks about anymore when they analyze games, teams or players. You can truly know the greatness of a team or player when you can just see the sheer impact of the game they have even without looking at stats
Kobe is such an immensely intelligent person. Sigh, I still can't believe that physically he is no longer here. When he speaks you always have to really really listen.
10:08 the interviewer asked him what advice would he give magic? He laughed and said “me give advice to magic” and as smart and more knowledgeable he was he still showed respect for who came before him. 🐐🐐
I love his articulateness.His multilingualness I think feeds his desire to thirst into how he has become more prolific.This is a guy who has a desire to perfect his ambitions or goals. Weather basketball or writing books.If one wants to write books as he has successfully fulfilled. One must master the art of word usage. He has gathered a significant amount of vocabulary to sound profound is his speech. Awesome.Mamba mentality applied to other ventures.Why not!
Almost a YEAR😥 we miss you man!💛💜 Thank you for all the inspiration and such a beautiful and unforgettable moments of your life ... One of the GREATEST to ever play the game!!!💛💜 Rest In Peace MAMBA!🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

he's so well spoken, we need more people like him in every sport
He’s retired! No longer in sports
Agreed
Kobe cannot speak without intensity and intelligence, even when discussing a children's book.
I felt every word he said about it Lmaooo why does this not have more likes lol
Very good observation. This dude was built to achieve. Only Arnold reminds me of him when talking about achieving.
That was funny
As a true fan of Kobe Bryant, everything he speaks is absolute mind over matter🤯🤯🤯
Kobe talking like the goat, he knows he's one of the greatest, he doesn't have to say it, he doesn't have to self proclaim he the goat
MrTdollarsign cause he is the goat 😂😂😂 imo
He’s top 10, (arguably top 5). And yes..... HES ABOVE LEBRON!!!!

He knows he's not the goat. That's why he won't say it
So calm, at peace with himself and determined.
The man is still inspiring us from after life.
Damn it, Kobe, don't make me like you

He's not killing your team anymore. Its okay to like em 😂

Like em when they leave hate them when they're playing
I could not stand Kobe or the Lakers growing up, his last few seasons I started to kinda like him, I hate this feeling
At least we have his memory😔
In the end, it will be all we need
Kobe is literally giving us the 101 on how to retire and start something new. It's pretty bad ass!
Its a smart move tho. Its like u really dont retire after everything you bought to the table through the years but being able to pass on that prestige knowledge about something u love and advanced in so much to others who r upcoming in that same field of interest.
I miss his candor and just him as a person. We miss you Kobe. 💜💛
Most under appreciated player of all time!🐐🐐🐐🐐🐐
Brownmamba how is he under appreciated at all
This guy fucking dumb and needs to stay in school to learn the definition of those words he said
Kobe is the most overrated player of all time. He’s top 10, but nowhere near the GOAT.
Facts
Spike Spiegel he’s the GOAT to me. That’s your opinion dickhead
He's a very eloquent speaker. I respect his intelligence.
How can anyone hate Kobe! This man just demands greatness! Period!!!
No one hates kobe tbh, some Kobe fans are toxic tho

Malcolm Windmon - Yea man, that was insulting.

Kobe is Mount Rushmore level. Obviously MJ is there, Kobe, Kareem, LeBron, Magic...
He's on the new list as of this last week he's ranked 9 overall. It's straight disrespectful tbh. He is top 5 for sure.
Very disrespectful hes 1 or 2nd to me

I love when Kobe goes on a press run. Im loving this!!!!

Frobe from 1998-2003 was my favorite Kobe era.
2004-2009 was a killa kobe
09-13 was unreal kobe
2001 kobe was ahead of his time and became the black mamba. Who was scoring 56 in 3quarters ?
07 kobe scored 62 points in 3 quarters
Frobe actually was his best era
He wasn't injured a lick he just lacked poise
I miss him😢😢
Kobe has an advanced level of wisdom and knowledge that cant be taught nobodies school. He is simply gifted.
Or a Warlock
Still miss you Kobe. Thanks for everything.
Kobe is a Genius!!!! What can’t he do
Literally made me cry. KOBE!
Love this Kobe but Kobe 10 years ago would say he is trying to beat Jordan lol
So whats wrong with that what you thought years ago may not be the thoughts10 years later
Thats the process man, u go through so much phases
thats becoming mature , he matured people forgot and forgive , but have you yet ?
The man who viewed the world at 50 the same way as he viewed it at 20 has wasted 30 years of his life.
Kobe always said he was never worried about the him vs jordan debate...thats just a media narrative. Lebron on the other hand says it every chance he gets smh
