Kobe played pretty solid after coming back from Achilles injury, sadly his body was just breaking down & could not beat father time.... Thank you for giving your all on that hardwood & the memories, RIP legend!
See 36 years old and still wrecking people I don't wanna hear shit from the haters and he had 7 assists so I don't wanna hear bs like this guy is a ballhog. How is he a ballhog if he ranks 36 all time in assists and most of the people ahead of him are point guards smh. I'm loving these jerseys tho
haters are going to hate on kobe but when hes gone best believe they're going to miss this guy. Like damn the way this dude prepares and hes drive for success is unbelievable he played his heart out on this game against the clippers. i just wished he had a better supporting cast on that way he gets another shot for a title
He was fantastic in the first three quarters but I'm not giving him a pass for that awful 4th quarter. Also I think the refs deserve highlights from the game too. That was a vintage performance in gift wrapping the W for the Clippers.
***** I want to account that to his age. I think he can pull a solid 20~30 minutes, but pushing 30 or more will be tough for any 36 year old playing professional grade basketball--much less one coming off of achilles rupture and fractured tibia. If anything 4th quarter was one-sided not solely because of Lakers' poor performance, but the refree calls as well. All in all I'd say this was a progress and it's a game worth watching.
I'm Suns fan and I will admit I said he was done. Damn has Kobe proved me wrong. I respect the hell out of him but damn this dude still has it somehow.
Watch his 2012-13 season. 27.3 points, 5.6 rebounds, 6.0 assists, and 38.5 mpg, 5th in NBA. Will he get another season like this? Probably not but very similar to this and hes 36 years old coming from two serious injuries
I may not be the biggest fan of Kobe Bryant as a human being but I sure am going to miss his game when he retires. He as close as you can get to watching MJ without actually watching MJ. Kobe is a joy to watch on the court. I can't say that about many players these days. I hope he sticks around for a couple more years.
Ha ha ha ha still clutch 1 of 12 for game winners this season and still clutch. Btw if you watched this live he went 1 of 6 in the final two minutes. So think before you post kobetard
If Kobe had another all star on the Lakers he'd be happy as shit!!!! They don't need a fancy point gaurd, they can stick with Wayne Ellington and Lin, what they need is a starting center and power forward, and they need a big small forward that can shoot and post up and boom contenders
Still got that quickness and explosiveness.. I knew when he when down with that injury last year i could count on him to bounce back. Hes the only guy who can pull something like this off at 36 years old in the nba as well as in the history of all sports.
Im not much of a lakers fan, kobe is not my favorite player, but i like the team. Has alot of potential. This was a tough game to lose, but im aure they will be fine. People seem to forget that this is an 82 game season. I know the lakers are 0-3, but there is PLENTY of time for them to find a groove. Some people just expect every team or every star player to be perfect, which really gets on my nerves. The cavs aren't perfect. The thunder aren't perfect. Neither are the clippers, bulls, warriors, spurs, or any team. We are all human. They are not going to give you everything you want every game. We really should'nt get riled up over a basketball game. There are more important things to be worried about.
Kobe Bryant, looked good in this game see he wouldn't be getting tired and outta gas with this laker team he doesn't even have to worry about taking over. Anymore that backcourt is fucking nasty!!! He can just stand around high post moving around top of the key and spot up he's got help!!!
I like the way Lin is moving, very easily and decisively, and has powerful early run, it doesn't seem like he needs many moves to get by his defender. He needs to help KB in training b/c KB looks like he needs to try harder and is not playing off reaction as much. Lin needs to tell this to KB if team wants to get better. Sometimes a young leader needs to help a talented player get back or get better. If KB can move easier with better energy they will be a very powerful back-court.
If Kobe would of knock down at least 3 of those shots he took in the 4th, lakers would of sealed the win. Kobe looks good for the most part and those were shots he normally makes. He has the chance to be the first player ever to average over 23ppg at age 36 years old which I think he'll probably do! A lot of milestones he can break this year, and the Main one is passing Mj on that scoring list.
What you people fail to realize is that Kobe is not a PG it's not his job to pass. That's why every team has a PG there job is to facilitate and get everyone involved.A shooting guards main purpose is to score.If a Point guard shoots to much then he isn't a PG and isn't doing his job.Kobe does what he is supposed to do which is score.
Stats of Kobe until now: 67 shots made on 182 attempts= 36.8% Rest of the Lakers: 226 shots made on 486 attempts= 46.6% KOBE STOP SHOOTING THE BALL AND GIVE IT TO YOUR TEAMMATES!!!
You have to respect the determination and the passion. Most players would have given up trying to lift a struggling team(Dwight Howard) and maybe even move on to escape the stigma of loss(Lebron James). Kobe just wants to play, win or lose, and of course he rather win than lose, but he knows how to take a loss and work harder. Right now his only true rival, ...is TIME.
RahulPresentsKobe yeah i dunno how many highlights he had that year...i watched him the whole year and it was for a 34 year old a very very good season: 27.3 points, 5.6 rebounds, 6.0 assists, and 38.5 mpg, 5th in NBA.
Sometimes I think Kobe has it figured out than he goes and jacks up 35 shots again!!! Kobe needs to focus more on rebounds and assists than on scoring. If your going to run the offense you need to find the open man. Kobe needs to average 8 to 10 Assists per game if the Lakers are going to be successful.
If Kobe leads the lakers back to the playoffs and averages close to what he does most years with maybe more assists he could average 8 assists a game, if he did that he would deserve an MVP trophy as it is ridiculous that he only has one. And he will catch jordan in points
I'm a DIEHARD Kobe fan, BUT: -5-8 through first 3 quarters -1-7 in the 4th. I hope this isn't an omen, looks great until the 4th and then gets tired. Realllllllly wouldn't want to see that.
lmaooo WTF...i had to pause this video at 1:39 just to fucking think....and take in that this man is moving like its 2008 and like he isn't coming off what was supposed to be a "career finishing" injury...i literally laughed out loud....dude is amazing
you dudes are just jealous that you had to watch the carbon copy while I had the real thing. Jordan was the smoothest player ever, and we will never see anyone as good, because men are so soft now.
***** I'm a laker fan but I'm sick and tired of people bringing up Kobe's 19 seasons. Don't you realize that if anything that is a point against Kobe when comparing him to MJ? Kobe already played more games and more seasons than MJ but his accomplishments are significantly less. Furthermore, if MJ, at his usual pace, didn't not retire multiple times , he would've easily eclipsed Kareem on the all time scoring list and Stockton on the all time steals list. I'm a laker fan but I'm an NBA fan first
Im not even mad that the lakers are losing lately, im just soo happy about kobe playing and making plays cause his time is almost up in the nba
Same. It's sad that in 2 years i will only be able to watch highlights from the past cuz hes retired :/
@@emjay1249 it's even worse that in 2020 hes not even here with us anymore...and covid is 😥
and now the lakers are losing a lot now 😔 but at least then won the 2020 championship

3 years later I can’t believe he’s gone he made the game fun to play RIP KOBE🪦
Well, the jerseys were dope
36 years old? fuckin hell...
With a ruptured Achilles tendon and missed one season.
He's on his way to being G.O.A.T.

yep he dominated during the 4th quarter.All the bricks lmao.
DICK HEAD ok he had a bad 4th quarter your point is
DICK HEAD Lebron went 5-15 with 8 TO's against the Knicks who got smacked by the Bulls on their home floor... What is your point?
Paul F. Exactly people are quick to point out when other players do bad but when king James does bad nobody talks about it smh
***** sorry I think you have the wrong person because I don't expect them to average that
haters are going to hate on kobe but when hes gone best believe they're going to miss this guy. Like damn the way this dude prepares and hes drive for success is unbelievable he played his heart out on this game against the clippers. i just wished he had a better supporting cast on that way he gets another shot for a title

He was fantastic in the first three quarters but I'm not giving him a pass for that awful 4th quarter. Also I think the refs deserve highlights from the game too. That was a vintage performance in gift wrapping the W for the Clippers.
butt hurt kobe fan alert.Lose = bad team and bad calls win = kobe goat
DICK HEAD thanks for putting words in our mouths, totally justifies your perspective
Your name is dick head and you got Justin Bieber and Iggy in your likes. Is your existence even relevant?

stop blaming refs.. just admit it that kobe cost us another game.. we really had a good run when he was on the bench. messed it all up in the 4th..
I'm Suns fan and I will admit I said he was done. Damn has Kobe proved me wrong. I respect the hell out of him but damn this dude still has it somehow.

Kobe is more healthier than Rose. That says a lot
That layup was filthy...
Rip Kobe 🐍💜💛
We miss you
Who’s here after lakers 2020 wear these jerseys in the bubble---->>>
Those were not the same as these,these are the Hollywood nights jerseys,those were the Mamba ones.
They’re not the same
KOBE IS BACK!!! Baby Lets go lakers!!!

The way old Kobe sauced up Chris Paul on the last play. Tough fadeaway. 🔥
MY BROTHER KOBE BRYANT RIP
Kobe doing what he does best. :)
That jersey is on fire
Happy to see him again playing in my favorite basketball team!!!
I remember going to this game. Was my first nba and lakers game. Even tho we lost, I did enjoy the game.
Bryant is back

He's moving really well, getting to his spots quicker than he did preseason. This guy defies logic.
Kobe is legend!
Kobe Too Real Bro
Kobe lookin like he's moving a lot faster now. He should pass alot more, this team can at least make it 8th seed.
this team will be lucky to win 10 games
He's slowly working his way back to greatness
Greatest.

I love black T-shirt Jersey
rudy gay 40 points from tonight and some suns highlights from tonight's game

The best one
Jordan Hill highlights please

He's looking better every game. He should average 25+ while we tank.
Kobe N 1 !!!
Accept the fact that Kobe's time has past.
If he's going to do this all season. They should give him the MVP imo
I guess you're right. But i just feel sorry for the mamba
tucksities24
that's how MVP SHOULD be handed out lol..not just to the best player on the best team
*****
yeah, it's sad. imo kobe was a legitimate MVP candidate in 2012-2013 too.
RahulPresentsKobe yeah i dunno how many highlights he had that year...i watched him the whole year and it was for a 34 year old a very very good season: 27.3 points, 5.6 rebounds, 6.0 assists, and 38.5 mpg, 5th in NBA.

1:36 that pass fake was so nasty
He trying his hardest to catch mike on the all-time scoring list.
he physically looks like hes in his prime

And he will catch jordan in points

-5-8 through first 3 quarters
-1-7 in the 4th.
I hope this isn't an omen, looks great until the 4th and then gets tired. Realllllllly wouldn't want to see that.
Can't wait till swaggy p comes back.
And to think he was ranked 40th, those ESPN guys must be peeing their pants seeing the mamba back in action XD
Yeah they were too nice, Kobe should have been in the 100's... He has been terrible this season and add to that, he plays no defense
I thought the lakers had this game last night but crawford and that 3. I think the lakers should stop trying to shoot 3s they were 7-20 i think.
36 yrs...wow...and if he keeps playin like that he will average 25-30 pts...2015MVP???
How can he be MVP if his team can't win?
ADAJ3 good question man...maybe the lakers get better during the season
Geez Kobe was puttin so much work this game idk how he still seems so athletic but Wade seems like he lost all of it sigh :P
💛💜💔
lmaooo WTF...i had to pause this video at 1:39 just to fucking think....and take in that this man is moving like its 2008 and like he isn't coming off what was supposed to be a "career finishing" injury...i literally laughed out loud....dude is amazing
Not exactly 2008 but 2012-2013 Kobe.
Exactly, fuck the Kobe haters.
***** hey what video editor are u using reply please
They should have a space jam for kobe Bryant 🏀🏀🏀😂😂😂
R.i.p
We got the opposite. One for LeBron
Jordan Hill please
You can bet against the Lakers, but never bet against #24.
Five rings baby.
Nice jersey. Michael Jordan at 36 did not move around like that.
Dude where do u get these jerseys at
Damn that move he put on Chris Paul was nasty!
Who watching in 2020??
The Black Fucking Mamba. If you don't know, you'd better ask somebody.
Where can I find a black jersey like this
This is the game they should have won but the refs were fit to award Griffin all those free throws.
Old man can still jump.
We got the Best player since Jordan
2018?
Looks 30 to me
mike Jordan would have had 56 and 12 assists. too bad we have to watch kobe and lebron
Here's a solution don't watch.
you dudes are just jealous that you had to watch the carbon copy while I had the real thing. Jordan was the smoothest player ever, and we will never see anyone as good, because men are so soft now.
