I always thought Kobe was very arrogant when he first got drafted into the league. Over time, we seen his work ethic was paramount; Nobody had the will, drive, and determination of Kobe Bean Bryant.. Sincerely, from a Boston Celtics fan.. 🙏🏼🕊💯
Kobe was the first player since Larry Bird in the mid 80s to give it to MJ as good as MJ gave it to everyone else. Reggie Miller tried but he couldn't stand up to Mike's physicality. That's why MJ respected & appreciated Kobe so much. It wasn't just the physical fight they had with each other... it's that mentality of never giving in & going back at Mike play after play. Being old enough to watch & enjoy all of MJ's career & then Kobe's too has been an amazing blessing

You would have been amazed. Not only did they battle for a NCAA championship, they battled for NBA championships. And through those battles they developed a mutual respect for each other. 💯😎
Some of those games were awesome. Watch the 87 lakers. Magic and the team at their peak. The fast break was insane. Almost every possession magic pushed the ball up the court as fast as possible. Must have been exhausting for opponents

That Pat on the Butt from Mike to Kobe at the All-Star game was the Passing on the Torch imo, it had already been some time since Kobe had taken Jordan over at that Point in the League but that was the moment right there Mike was Like you the Man now, this is your League, Love what Kobe brought to this World and Love to all of those that experienced that Tragic Accident, and to their Lovedones here 🙏🏾
This man said he worked out with the 76'ers in highschool like that's a common thing 😂. I'm a Chicago born and raised Jordan head but I respect Kobe and he is truly a legend.
Back when there wasn't cry babies on the court. Back when if you possessed the ball🏀 you were the bully. That era of basketball from 85-2005 was the best. R.i.p Kobe ✌️
That Lakers vs Bulls matchup in 1998 set the tone💯💯 he asked MJ for tips and he gave him game and told the reporter he was gone be the face of the league soon.
when i lost my father in 2013 i kept on subconsciously telling myself : ''you still have Kobe''. I never imagined! that losing Kobe would leave the same wound in the exact same ''place'' that my Father's passing did. Mentors are Everything in Life. Especially for young men. Never underestimate the power of mentorship , even when it takes place from ''a distance'' . It is still there! Choose your role models carefully and follow their footsteps, adapting their mentality to your situation. You will never be alone. You will only get better!

When a person cries for you when you are gone , the person considered you as being close , when your family miss you , have been a good family man, when some group of people sobs at your departure , you have inspired them, when the whole world weeps at your untimely departure, you have been a phenomenon and a role model for generations to come ! that’s the impact Kobe created !

"... or you can call him 'Black cat'. "
is like a friend giving awareness to the main character of a 90's movie. 😂
Miss kobe every time i turn youtube on.. always a feed about him in my algorithm.. ❤
Much love and RESPECT!✌🏾
This why Kobe was, still and forever will me that guy to me!
“I’m a call him fucc’n Mike that’s his name”😂😂 R.I.P Kobe & GG 💯
Both of these guys were Absolutely Amazing 🏀🏆
The level of respect and preparation for the game both of them possessed is unmatched.
Love MJ and Black Mamba, Kobe ❤🙏🙏. More respect for those guys 👏👏
###LONGLIVEKOBE!!!
That Pat on the Butt from Mike to
Kobe at the All-Star game was the Passing on the Torch imo, it had already been some time since Kobe had taken Jordan over at that Point in the League but that was the moment right there Mike was Like you the Man now, this is your League, Love what Kobe brought to this World and Love to all of those that experienced that Tragic Accident, and to their Lovedones here 🙏🏾
The first line is RIDICULOUS
"WHEN I WAS IN HIGH-SCHOOL I WORKED OUT WITH THE 76ERS" 😮
2 goats amd the respect mike had for kobe was real to make kobe who kobe was in the gsme
Mike having those players trained is just plane insane 😂😂😂
This man said he worked out with the 76'ers in highschool like that's a common thing 😂. I'm a Chicago born and raised Jordan head but I respect Kobe and he is truly a legend.
Back when there wasn't cry babies on the court. Back when if you possessed the ball🏀 you were the bully. That era of basketball from 85-2005 was the best. R.i.p Kobe ✌️
They feared Mike. They feared Lebron's text messages to other players to join him in Miami.
Wish you were alive ❤️
Much love for KOBE.:
Definitely the air apearant to Jordan has always been Kobe rip 🙏
That Lakers vs Bulls matchup in 1998 set the tone💯💯 he asked MJ for tips and he gave him game and told the reporter he was gone be the face of the league soon.
when i lost my father in 2013 i kept on subconsciously telling myself : ''you still have Kobe''. I never imagined! that losing Kobe would leave the same wound in the exact same ''place'' that my Father's passing did. Mentors are Everything in Life. Especially for young men. Never underestimate the power of mentorship , even when it takes place from ''a distance'' . It is still there! Choose your role models carefully and follow their footsteps, adapting their mentality to your situation. You will never be alone. You will only get better!
Mr. Michael stated that Mr. Bryant adopted all of his techniques but executed them exceptionally well. May Mr. Bryant's legacy endure forever. RIP 🙏🏾
You're telling me their faceoffs was "Black Mamba" vs "Black Jesus" 😂😂😂
“When I was in highschool, I used to work out with the 76rs” is already crazy RIP Kobe man
Practicing in HS, with grown NBA pros says it all... Kobe and MJ's bond, beautiful...
Always luvd, forever missed, Kobe and GiGi🕊🕊🕊🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🌺🌺😇😇🫶🏿🫶🏿🫶🏿🫶🏿🫶🏿❤️❤️💐
Just shows real recognizes real.two legends
Just to see these two physically back each other down, along with their mental attribute. Is uncanny and greatness at its finest.
Real recognize real!!! Rest in Paradise Kobe 🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
Kobe had an inner person we didn’t know about. 😮
When a person cries for you when you are gone , the person considered you as being close , when your family miss you , have been a good family man, when some group of people sobs at your departure , you have inspired them, when the whole world weeps at your untimely departure, you have been a phenomenon and a role model for generations to come ! that’s the impact Kobe created !
We would never forget u u a real NBA Legend
Kobe sounds like he's mimicking Reggie Miller's voice "You mean black Jesus?" "Ahh you don't wanna do that" sounds like Reggie
Damn man, I miss Kobe. Dude was built different. He was a real one.
Man they had genuine love for each other!!! If only Kobe could’ve got that one ring!!
