I used to watch this video so much during high school and after to get myself pumped up before hooping. You would have been 45 years old today Kobe, you inspired me and millions of others. Still can’t believe you’re gone man..unreal.
I find myself looking at Kobe's highlights, knowing that the best player in his era is going to hang it up in the next season. What a sad reality for all of us who watched him grow these past 20 years...
+jomai2040 Absolutely. Too many wish to try and rank the greats or hate on them. I consider myself lucky to have witnessed his greatness right from the start of his career.
Its currently January 28th, 2020. 2 days since you and Gigi were taken from the world. I'm still waiting for you to tweet that you've awaken because people like you don't die. The Kobe Bryants of the world live forever. I used to love watching this after you retired, just to reminisce on your career. Now, I watch this to reminisce on your life. I fully believe your 2nd career was going to out shine your 1st. You're the GOAT. Rest Easy Kobe!! Rest Easy Gigi. Ready Easy to everyone else in that horrific accident. I hope we make you the logo. Love you, always.❤
ball is his life whta u expect? the way KObe plays he will last unlike other players of the NBA u see how smart Kobe plays now? Its all fundamentals... no more flashy stuff, just basics... and he's the best at it
what are you saying? his jumpshot is amazing, he has sick post moves, and has good moes to get to the rim. most of all, he can find the open man. you guys must be some biassed kobe fans.
@Coilizebronze i agree.. no one can and will never be compared to mj..but if u watch kobe..he has the fundamentals of the game he is a very smart player..smarter than anyone else in the league..his problem tho..hes not a total team player if their losing he forgets about the team and try to do it all him self which is something mj never did..kobe doesnt jus jack shots hoping they go in he knows what hes goin to do b4 he does it he knows how to score and his opponents weaknesses big 3's are gettn
i know man like come on how do they not look like eachother... now i see why we all keep sayin tupac is still alive... we keep on lookin at kobe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i personally love how the media has twisted the opinions of most people who a few years ago would say without doubt that lebron was a better player than kobe now all of a sudden everybody hates lebron for taking control of his own basketball destiny,i personally always thought that kobe the best blayer in the league since 2000 but i am disgusted by the hate for lebron by the so called fans,sportswriters and former players,especially jordan,he didnt win shyt until pippen,phil and a gd team came.
@anrew1997 James has led the team to consecutive playoff appearances from 2006 through 2010. In 2007, the Cavaliers advanced to the Conference Finals for the first time since 1992 and to the NBA Finals for the first time in franchise history. James has been a member of the USA national team, winning a bronze medal at the 2004 Olympics and gold at the 2008 Olympics. YEAH BRO HE TOTALLY CHOKES.. fucking kids man
@bigb954 4real dude, kobe came in wen MJ was still doin his thang, good luck to ANYONE tryin to get recognized at that time. i doubt lebrick could have done much damage to the defenses of the 90's
I've been in that LMHS gym a few times, it's real nostalgic but........ All of the pictures of him should say "future rapist" and the cheerleaders should say "victim 1" and so on
A Legend was born, Kobe Bryant HS: 1x State Champ Junior Year: (31.1 PPG/10.4 RPG/5.2 APG) Senior Year: (31.8 PPG/12 RPG/6.5 APG/4 SPG/3.8BPG) Pennsylvania High School All-Time Leading Scorer: (2883 points, yeah more than Wilt'the GOAT' Chamberlain) PRO: 5x NBA World Champ 2x Olympic Gold 1x NBA MVP 2x NBA Playoffs MVP 2x NBA Scoring Champ 4x NBA All-Star Game MVP 1x Slam Dunk Contest Champ 30.000+ points (4th of all time)
And now he's gone! He, his daughter Gianna & 7 others were killed in a chopper accident in Calabasas, CA on 26 January. Their bodies were buried in an Orange County, CA cemetery yesterday afternoon.
I used to watch this video so much during high school and after to get myself pumped up before hooping. You would have been 45 years old today Kobe, you inspired me and millions of others. Still can’t believe you’re gone man..unreal.
RIP to one of the greatest players of all time. Thanks for the memories and inspiration. The legacy of the Black Mamba will never die.
THE GOAT 20 YEARS 👌🙌🔥
I used to watch this so much throughout my high school basketball days. Can’t believe you’re gone Kobe. I don’t wanna believe it.
Thank you Kobe for inspiring me to pick up a basketball and dream big. RIP MAMBA.
Possibly the greatest high school basketball player ever
nope. lebron james is the greatest high school basketball player
+real silver all stupid
i think lebron was better in high school.
Possibly hints at doubt. Its like saying I'm possibly pregnant either you are or you aren't. Kobe was the best Highschool Player ever now he is gone.

Fair point. I should have used the word *arguably*.

Lmao this man was a God in high school
Kobe Bryant is the legend like m. Jordan and l.james d. Wade
I used to remember watch this video again and again when I am in middle school.
so lucky for people to see him play in high school...
Kobe Bryant is the best player in this last generation of players
mark my words, this kid will be SICK in the nba one day.
....
This guy's gonna be a good nba player. Maybe even great!☺
If this kid works hard, he can make the NBA some day.
Destined for greatness!
2nd best shooting guard ever and a top 10 player of all time.
Kobe rocks!!
i like how lebron was really like humble but kobe is like "Ha im the best, watch me dunk and do a flip."
ball is his life whta u expect? the way KObe plays he will last unlike other players of the NBA u see how smart Kobe plays now? Its all fundamentals... no more flashy stuff, just basics... and he's the best at it
its weird how kobe looks EXACTLY the same now as he did when he was 17. most people look a little different but kobe looks identical.
what are you saying? his jumpshot is amazing, he has sick post moves, and has good moes to get to the rim. most of all, he can find the open man. you guys must be some biassed kobe fans.
RIP KOBE!
1:30 "Stats do not define this player". That is so true. There were many players with better stats than him, but only 1 player better than him.
Now this is a real mixtape
Sick mix man!!
No one ever thought that this 13th overall draft pick prospect from HS would win 5 rings and be the best player in his era.
RIP to the true goat
I cant believe i played with kobe in high school
that man can fly in high school
Birth of a legend!
then started again this year.
Hey man great vid I think nor I know Kobe is the best player of NBA Kobe rules
man i wish i wan in high school with him
He still looks like he graduated yesterday.
It seems like Kobe liked his left hand more than his right.
@Coilizebronze i agree.. no one can and will never be compared to mj..but if u watch kobe..he has the fundamentals of the game he is a very smart player..smarter than anyone else in the league..his problem tho..hes not a total team player if their losing he forgets about the team and try to do it all him self which is something mj never did..kobe doesnt jus jack shots hoping they go in he knows what hes goin to do b4 he does it he knows how to score and his opponents weaknesses big 3's are gettn
RIP Kobe
i know man like come on how do they not look like eachother... now i see why we all keep sayin tupac is still alive... we keep on lookin at kobe!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BEAST!!!!!!!!
Back in the days... before Hoopmixtape was created
Young Kobe
oh men 16 years past ! what a long time :D !
It's crazy because he looks exactly the same
Wow he sure didn't change much...
Who knew a song could ruin an entire mixtape?
All about Kobe
kobe being kobe
i personally love how the media has twisted the opinions of most people who a few years ago would say without doubt that lebron was a better player than kobe now all of a sudden everybody hates lebron for taking control of his own basketball destiny,i personally always thought that kobe the best blayer in the league since 2000 but i am disgusted by the hate for lebron by the so called fans,sportswriters and former players,especially jordan,he didnt win shyt until pippen,phil and a gd team came.
his score highlights are better than his assist highlights. Stop calling him a ball hog. He stopped being a ballhog after 2007...
lol kobe looks like an adult playing high school
KB24 The BEST !!!
G. O. A. T
Wat a beast and now watch him get the lakers @nother championship
kobe was like a center in HS cause he's 6.6. xD
@anrew1997

YEAH BRO HE TOTALLY CHOKES.. fucking kids man
at the 2:04 mark, that kid on Kobe's left, looks like Ray Allen.
damn straight
The best
ads are everywhere nowdays bro..even in the videos....lol
He has a same confidence :D
Whats the song name?
@mirkovic101
at 3:28 it shows the name of the song.
Count the rings on the fingers...
@bigb954 4real dude, kobe came in wen MJ was still doin his thang, good luck to ANYONE tryin to get recognized at that time. i doubt lebrick could have done much damage to the defenses of the 90's
Its funny that tha "2best" i tha nba are straight outta highschool..
hes so much taller than most of the others
hey what number did kobe wear at high school is it 21 or 33 ?
Looks like a movie lol
I've been in that LMHS gym a few times, it's real nostalgic but........ All of the pictures of him should say "future rapist" and the cheerleaders should say "victim 1" and so on
@hwuman and he still does
What is this song called?? Any help??
welcome to my world-nicole renee
@KobeBryantROXz oh i see.. tnx for the info.
better than Lebron any day of the week
Seems ok. Would never make it in college though. Maybe he can do something on RUclips. Idk.
yeah i knoiw what you mean thu.....there on every vid
what´s the name of the song? :)
WHATS THE NAME OF THE SONG PLEASE SOMEONE TELL ME :(
Why bother arguing? I shouldn't surround myself with people who know nothing.
I'm in high school now and im just thinking how the hell can he do all that shit n i cant even dunk..
Lebron in HS would have destroyed Kobe in HS.
his high school has the same initials as mine ...lol
he had Jordan shoes
в школе не так "сладко" играл как сейчас,раньше больше агрессии было
even in high school it was unfair
28,000 points later
did anyone else notice the knuckle ball shot at 0:57 ?
Wow, this kid is really good!! I'll definitely keep an eye out for him
what rock have you been under? lmao
will lowery lmfao uninformed dude lol
just use a time machine:) Rofl:D
he can jump really high!
Jba 99 ,jfm
U can tell by his swagger he knew he was the next greatest player
What year is he? The kid is talented, but he'll never make it professionally with that attitude. We'll see how he does in college.
he looks just like kobe bryant
robert ewing Who?
that kid in the video
Straight out of high-school? He's too young..not NBA ready.. :)
wtf
He literally looks exactly the same

I miss you all ready Kobe. Basketball will miss your talent
yes ikr
Yep we really love kobe
Now everyone no matter they know any basketball or not miss him 😭😭
How’d you predict his death
Wow this guy could be the next Jordan. I think he needs to bulk up though. Duke will suit him well.
Lol
+Matthew Nam I think he's good enough to make it to the NBA as a lottery pick. He should try and force his way into the Lakers.
+Random Bike Trips Lakers need a player like this kid and if this kid had a bigman like shaq on his team they would annihilate any competition
So, i wonder what became of this guy?
D league
Why don't you search about it
And now he's gone! He, his daughter Gianna & 7 others were killed in a chopper accident in Calabasas, CA on 26 January. Their bodies were buried in an Orange County, CA cemetery yesterday afternoon.
I think he's too skinny to ever make it to the NBA. He may be able to make it on the squad or some junior college or community college though
+Zumbi Dos Palmares hes actually been in the nba for 20 years now. his name is kobe bryant
I doubt it
haha
5 championship ring 3 Mvps and hall of famer
+navjotjohal johal He has 1 mvp.
I think this guy will play for the lakers and win 5 rings with them
Fake he retired by then
Gonna be a sad day when the kid retires... sigh time flies by.
A couple more weeks left of him :(
Solo rip
MSY that didn’t age well...
