As disappointing as it was to have the lockout that year, this was the best part about it. You had so many charity games, pro ams, and player leagues going on that summer and fall. Some of the biggest players in the world packing out high school gyms and streetball courts on the regular. Too ill
This was honestly the perfect year for the lockout. You had Kobe still in his prime, Lebron, Chris Paul, Melo and D Wade smack dab in the middle of his, KD at the height of his scoring powers, and of course the young studs Wall, Rose, Westbrook and Harden!!!
How special is that. Fans getting to see Kobe hit a game winner up close in personal in their own spot. Legendary moment that for some is worth more than seeing a favorite player or team win a ring.
For some, the personal and real life experience of seeing someone they look up to means more than watching them win rings. Some value that personal experience more than others. Especially in the case of some inner city youth who would be more inspired by seeing this in person than watching the TNT broadcast.
Legit video..shows that these guys are really having fun..like it used to be before they got in the nba and it became more about business rather then fun
You guys are missing the pure greatness of this video, the fact that they are there in a gym dooing the thing they love, while smiling and laughing...having fun with friends.
Damn this shit brought back so many memories, I watched this video faithfully before and after workouts and while I would be dribbling the ball in my game room
Kobe shoots 29% in the clutch get your facts right kobe fans, and i love how he is the most mentioned in the comments when he was in 1/50 of the plays and got put WAY to high for a game winner that is worthless it was a game for fun nothing serious as you can tell by the defense throughout the whole video. GET OFF KOBES NUTS KOBE FANS, DURANT SHOULD BE NUMBER 1 IN THIS COUNTDOWN.
You gotta be fucking stupid. That last game winner was for the Drew League Championship if i recall, it was Hardens Team Vs Kobes Team, and the whole game it was a very close game and it was most Harden and Kobe the whole game!
Rip Kobe the game will never be the same without you. The whole gym screaming his name is proof of that. We miss you black mamba #24forever rip to his baby girl Gigi as well

The Lockout Was The Best Thing To Happen For NBA FANS.
Jerk Village facts
we lowkey need another lock out hahaha
you mean BASKETBALL fans
Dang I had no idea these games even existed. Would have been so cool to see these players in such a small venue.
Those events were for charity during the lockout.
Yeah It was amazing lol I was literally just coming out of highschool watching them in the summer time thru winter
I enjoyed watching this more then watchin the last 3 dunk contests combined...
I enjoyed watching this more than all of the batman movies combined...
a
Last Part with Kobe walking away made me emotional 😢💜💛
This was honestly the perfect year for the lockout. You had Kobe still in his prime, Lebron, Chris Paul, Melo and D Wade smack dab in the middle of his, KD at the height of his scoring powers, and of course the young studs Wall, Rose, Westbrook and Harden!!!
Rip kobe❤️💔 you’ll be missed
i BleedxTCx I’m watching this after they suspended the season today (3/11/2020)like damn KOBE GOT me crying 😭😭😭 Rest In Heaven Kobe and GiGi 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Def cried watching that last shot
Haha @ #1.
Legends say that since that day, James Harden never played Defense again.
Manny Santos I guess you were right 😂😂
Kobe is clutch no matter where he's at lol
forever.

Better than seeing your favorite team win a championship? Lol yea right guy

+TyrantT316 it would be a cool experience but nothing beats watching your favorite team win a championship.
Save the best for last. Kobe is the GOAT
he really isn't
UptightJJReturns He really is
Phyuck Yiu No.. but he is one of the GOAT scorers.
Phyuck Yiu Who has more rings? Who averages more PPG? Who is the better player and always will be? Michael Jordan.
UptightJJReturns who has the most rings in history? who has the highest avg in a season history?
What a time it was for the NBA. These guys showed out in parks and gyms. Gotta love it.
Best for last baby. Rip Kobe 🙏💔
8:07 and at this moment exactly, these two players knew they would eventually team up and dominate the entire league.
the same way curry passed the ball to giannis in the last all star
they did not know that wtf you talking about
@@yungisokilledit7058 it’s a figure of speech
This was amazing!! People having fun, a little shove here and there and no fouls, this is how BASKETBALL SHOULD ALWAYS BE. :(
Still have this video in my likes to this day. R.I.P Kobe & Gigi, you’ll always be remembered.🙏🏾
that lockout season was the littest time in Hoop MixTapes history
Wow...!!! Nice upload. In England I had no idea this was going on during the shut out. Respek ta dem ballerz
I miss the lockout games
Legit video..shows that these guys are really having fun..like it used to be before they got in the nba and it became more about business rather then fun
Kd drew such a big crowd at rucker park he should be 1
Arvin Marcelino no
#2 for sure
this is a truly sick video. appreciate the effort man
Rubio is the Kuroko irl. I swear.
T Magsino facts
the good old days!!!!
2:32 The way he got left is Emotional
lmao you phrased that funny as hell
One of the best lockout videos I ever seen. 4real.
and who ends up #1, Kobe Bryant. James Harden got served that entire game by kobe
+Eshwar Kollipara and what did he do defensively?
+Carson Billings Kobe was guarding harden. so that 44 didn't come because of luck. Although kobe is the goat. Well maybe after Jordan.
They make these games seem fun as hell to be in. If they were in My Career in 2k it'd be lit.
R.I.P. Tyler Honeycutt
this summer was wild, bring it back
are these people escaped from gravity, all looks like superman for me.
Have u seen Michael Jordan dunk from the free throw line how did you react to that?
John Reath Then we saw Zach LaVine do a windmill from the free throw line
!teert habit up see
Bryan Hoo that was disgusting
Had to come back to this vid in 2020damn r.i.p mamba 💔💔💔
It would've been really easy for Kobe because Harden barely plays any defense.
Obviously you haven't watched one rockets game this season. Lmao
It's a joke, but yeah, I haven't.
Yeah hardens defense is terrible.
But for a superstar to have that bad of defense is surprisingly terrible
+StephenCurrySucks it is getting better
Love the kid that runs onto the court to hug Kobe
Damn...Brandon Jennings is legit...had no idea haha
looking back, the 2011 lockout was such a legendary summer for basketball as a whole
that wade ally to lebron still gives me chills at #2
Bro I be feelin same way. There’ll never be another Lebron x Wade
@@326ch7 You actually replied to yourself a year later lol
@@tech_ninja lmaoooo oh sht
everyone was like "woooow" and then "wooooow and then "wooooow". beautiful video!
Not playing to win the game, because Legendary means playing to win the crowd.
I will never forget this summer heatwave 🔥🔥🔥
I was damn near about to say where is Kobe? ofcourse the last, nice 👌.
same bro
The plays between 30 and 10 seemed like the best
lmao @ swaggy p's afro
This must be a heap of fun for NBA players. Finally get to go wild with their supreme talent.
shumpert needs to get his ass in a dunk contest ASAP
Sm00th TV I didn't know he had that much bunnies.
Sm00th TV yeah you're right he must in the dunk contest this all star game soon , he would've probably beat zach lavine with those nasty dunks
Sm00th TV this was before he tore his ACL
The amount of raw talent on the court at once is crazy
Durant's 66 @ Rucker should have been #1 IMO
Some of these are just UNREAL
kobe 4 ever❤
Watching this now 2022 is amazing, insane talents!! Rn watching the crawsover!!
8:05 little did he know that durant will be his future teammate hahhahaa
You guys are missing the pure greatness of this video, the fact that they are there in a gym dooing the thing they love, while smiling and laughing...having fun with friends.
all of number 12 just clearly illustrated curry's season last year.
The NBA has some amazing athletes.
Melo, Kevin Durant, Lebron will be respect of #KOBE legend :)
Love this Vid! nice to see them at the Street Level and busting some sick moves!!
James Harden's best display of defense in his career and still gets shitted on hahahah
Lockouts suck but it brings some amazing moments and highlights how amazing the best players in the NBA are.
so ryan hollins can get his head above the rim..........
True NBA fan. Glad you're not like every other youtuber/hater that automatically says someone sucks just cuz you dont like them.
KOBEEEE OVER HARDEN ANYDAY SONNNNNN #HAVENOFEARMAMBAISHERE

Kobe over Harden? hmmmm nah
Alexis Mercado fuck yeah kobe over harden all day everyday wtf

more devoted fans during the lockout, bet those kids were amazed to see these players up and close for free
8:08 the snake already knew
Honestly, I hate the lockout, but, when NBA players show out like this, its too sweet.
JAVALE MCGEEEEEEEEEEEE
Shaqtin a fool!
Kent Berame true
damn, that shows how much respect they have for this man
WHOEVER COULD BE THE TOP PLAY BESIDES KOBE!?
These games are more fun than NBA games, Wish we could have more of these type of games.
8:40 kuroko???
Damn this shit brought back so many memories, I watched this video faithfully before and after workouts and while I would be dribbling the ball in my game room
Mamba out 💕
when i saw the honorable mentions were just honorable mentions, i knew this was gonna be a good video
Baron Davis still has a knee?
This is before the injury, lol
This type of stuff would be fun to watch
You just had to be there bruh smh
Still remember this video lmao smh. Joint was so tough!! Plus this instrumental was amazing
lol stephen curry with the epic fail
Lets Just Ignore The Cross He Did Before That
Tan Nguyen the cross doesnt matter if he didnt make a point.
Arbaz Sharif You Had Me Going Back To Watch But Im Sure That's As Wet As It Gets When He Threw That Up....
Last comment was 5 months ago and now I’m interested in this lockout 🔥
Kobe shoots 29% in the clutch get your facts right kobe fans, and i love how he is the most mentioned in the comments when he was in 1/50 of the plays and got put WAY to high for a game winner that is worthless it was a game for fun nothing serious as you can tell by the defense throughout the whole video.

Nba players just embarrassing people at pro ams was iconic
#10 and #2 should be switched.
Ahh coming back here in 2020 is kinda refreshing
Kobe isn't the GOAT
Kd is
Kevin Burton MJ
MJ is and will always be.....by the way how is Kobe game winner number 1....KD and Wall had better highlights
Kevin Burton KD is like top 30 at best
He's better than lebron
this looks so fun man
the lockout was what the culture needed
all of the honorable mentions would be highlights anywhere else, amazing.
the lockout brought the best out of a lot of players 💯😈
this makes me want to continue the lockout
The last one was EPIC !
Rip Kobe the game will never be the same without you. The whole gym screaming his name is proof of that. We miss you black mamba #24forever rip to his baby girl Gigi as well
Tht windmill from Ryan hollins was crazy
you made my day.
Ryan Hollins angry windmill wow.. Rubio pass is art... curry fail is epic...
Ricky Rubio's pass is amazing. I don't think you understand how hard it is to do that.
Nice highlights :)
how can you not love basketball!!!
#8 didnt see it at first, but on the replay, sickkk
Damn. KOBE FOREVER💜💛💜💛💯💔
#RIPKobe #RIPGiGi 🙏
Kobe is just the greatest in the game today..... unreal finish.
I wish I found out bout this earlier.. Woulda been sick to see these games
