Kobe deserved the MVPS of 2006 - 2007, 2007 - 2008, 2008 - 2009 and that of the 2009 - 2010 season.
Also, 02-03, 03-04, 05-06.
If he wasn’t injured in 04-05 then he probably would have deserved it that year as well.
And while we are on this topic. If there was a playoff mvp. He would deserve it for 01, 02, 04, 08, 09, 10 undeniably.
In 2001, Kobe became the first player in NBA history to have back to back 45+PTS 10+REBS in playoff history. Kobe set the record for the highest +/- in playoff history. Shaq had a negative +/- that year however. Same year Shaq called Kobe the best player in the world. Also the same year Phil Jackson said Kobe was playing a better all around game than anyone he’s ever coached(including MJ).

Facts
Kobe was literally unguardable between 2003 and 2009
Sycophantic nonsense.
But that's the Kult of Kobe for you.
The most impressive thing here is NOT the numbers. It's the fact that he was so fucking good at the time, he could do whatever he wanted whenever he wanted. Get 20 in one quarter, then settle down and set everybody up, get 7-8 assists easily, then come back and score 20 more in a quarter just because he felt like it. Just ridiculous
B. Alpha I miss him so much. Offensively as well. Do I wanna shoot a 30 footer? Do I wanna just take it to the hole? Hit the jumper like its nothing? Fade-away? He had EVERYTHING. ALONG with an AMAZING handle. And played high level defense at the same time.
I really miss this, man
Good times! Sad he's retiring

@@alikhawar6506 your comment hit so different now
kobe bryant is a goat...
49 points
10 assists
on 67% shooting!
and in the playoffs...
if social media was in 2009 was it is now, OMG the praise he'd get.
Doesnt look overrated to me...
the 49 looks odd 😅. i wish it was like 53. but none the less one of the best playoff perfromances by Kobe
And some bums saying Oscar Robertson is better
this is ridiculous. This man only has ONE MVP smh
should of had at least 3
He should've had 0

you're dumb
+dombees name one year he deserved mvp
2005-2006
Kobe hit on his last ten straight shots! Are you kidding me 10 for 10 at one point? GOAT CASE CLOSED!
What impresses me most about Kobe is how fucking versatile he was. If you watch LeBron's 40+ point games, it's him getting FTAs and straight-line drives. Watch Curry's, it's him being unbelievably hot from 3. Then watch Kobe's and it's him driving off isos, facing up on the elbows, both banking and swishing jumpers, posting up, getting good looks within the context of the triangle, scoring in transition, working P&R with Pau. I think modern basketball is so obsessed with efficiency that it kind of forgets the value of a player who could do literally anything.
Do you actually believe bron 40+ games are just fta and straight line drives to the basket?
Lebron has added to his arsenal, but, a majority of the time, that’s how he scores his points; he has minimal footwork & handles
kawh is just as versatile as kobe
@@jasonmoukala8909 most of em are bro lol bron never been as versatile of a scorer as Kobe… and it’s two different play styles lebron plays bully ball 90 percent of the time… he was beating people with his physical gifts where as kobe was beating people with skill
This is so true glad someone else realizes how amazing kobe really was
9:45 legendary kobe moment with the jersey grab
I love the way he does it. So amazing!
:’) the passion he had was always incredible. What a joy to watch
That Denver team had Allen Iverson, Carmelo Anthony, Marcus Camby, Kenyon Martin, and Jr Smith.
The Celtics that year had Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce, Rajon Rondo, and Tony Allen.
The suns had Steve Nash, Shaquille Oneal, Amare Stoudamire, Grant Hill, and Leandro Barbosa.
The Rockets had Ron Artest, Yao Ming, Tracy Mcgrady,Kyle Lowry and Dikembe Mutumbo
Yet Kobe never asked for a playmaker to be able to beat these teams smh.
the spurs too
hector cervantes He asked for a playmaker to deal with Golden State. People thought he was just complaining until the Cavs got stomped in the Finals.
Out of the teams you named only Boston was a true contender.
hector cervantes you right we was too busy trading away guys that was good I Caron Butler. And Kobe wanted management to keep him.
🐐
This is a 50 win 8th seed that got to the wcf the following year. Kobe swept em. Then kobe beat the defending champion spurs in 5, the same team that swept bron a year earlier.
But the media wants us to believe that beating oladipo, derozan, and rookie tatum, then getting swept in the finals, is the greatest postseason run ever lmaoo foh
"same thing as martin, doesn't matter" "doesn't matter?" "Doesn't matter". lmao good ol' kobe.
Best player of the 2000s only has one MVP, and the NBA media is supposed to be credible.
Kobe The Best Ever ! !

2:00 Kobe telling Facts. MVPs ain't shit nowadays. They're influenced by team success which doesn't make them a truly individual award. People still treat it like an individual award tho
@vman armand Kareem Abdul-Jabbar.
Nope
MVP award has always been a joke. The fact that the media decides who wins makes it a complete mockery. Letting guys who judge the game of basketball off narratives decide the outcome of the award makes it a joke. 06 MVP should've gone to kobe,lebron or shaq and Nash's other MVP should've gone to shaq as well. Lmaoo the two best players of the decade (Kobe/Shaq) only ends up with 1 MVP a piece. Lebron should also have like 7 MVPs by now but that dosen't matter because those guys are winners unlike a bunch of losers like Steve Nash, James Harden, Westbrook. Those guys don't contribute to winning basketball when it matters the most
Yall wanna hear the biggest joke in NBA history Kobe only has 1 MVP how da fook the man only has one MVP😂😂

That's a pumped up Kobe
Man.....
That's all I came hear to see. At least it's time-stamped
Iverson told a story about this game, basically Kobe wasn't really looking to attack and score at the beginning of the game, K-Mart was guarding Kobe and he started talking shit saying he wasn't scared of Kobe and he'd beat his ass, then Kobe did this. Iverson told K-Mart "Wtf are you doing man, leave that man alone, why are you talking to him." Lol
Shook the tree and a black Mamba fell out
this team lost the 2008 finals because Bynum and Ariza got hurt Celtics got lucky
That's what I've been telling my Celtics buddies, but they ain't trying to hear it. Ariza brought hustle, defense, athleticism and Bynum would've matched Kendrick Perkins, giving him problems on the defensive end for Perk. It would go 7 no doubt, but I felt like The Lakers could've pulled it off. They should've had a 3-2 lead heading back to Boston if it wasn't for that Game 4 meltdown.
I know it's only regular season, but they showed what they could do against the Celtics with that lineup. They beat them on Christmas Day, then again in Boston in the 08-09 season.
I love Pau Gasol so much but he was a little scared. that was the first time I saw Kobe crying too btw, I was 9 made me cry lol.
Samuel Gonzalez KOBE was pissed one got away man smh
untouchable Tee Fucking Facts been telling ppl that shit. Lucky asf.

Man LA was playing some beautiful basketball 08~10.

5;31 Kobe face kills me, doesnt matter who you are, you getting scored on
One of the best 3-yr run in basketball. Lakers got their rear end handed to them by the celtics in '08. They came back stronger than ever the following year and got their revenge on a Game 7 in '10.
9:47 The iconic Kobe scream and jersey pull
Kobe doin work!
unlike harden, in all of Kobe's 40point games, his shooting splits are 51-42-91. I tell you man, Kobe is not a shot chucker unlike what people are trying to point out. when he's hot, he's hot. check out those stats. Kobe is effecient man.
and 45% in an era of no spacing is already above average if you are a perimeter player. you never see Kobe having big scoring games with ineffecient stats
2007-2010 best Kobe era
2002-2010 best Kobe era
+untouchable Tee 2001-2010
Personally I loved the 2012-13 season, in terms of Kobe's performance, and the fact that he was the on court coach on that winning streak. The highlights made Kobe look 29 again. Plus that was when he had so much behind the scene access from Kobe, tweeting, Instagraming, being more personally open showing off his wonderful family, yet being cutthroat black mamba starting beefs and playing at ridiculously high level. Excluding the team collapses and Achilles he had one of his best season.
Samuel Gonzalez you're right i think he should've won season mvp the level he was playing at he was also 34 that season and was the only reason lakers made the playoffs but the NBA robbed him again
1996-2016 Kobe Forever
Boy how we forget how great this guy was…how could you not mention his name

the mj of this era! misses his prime days...
9:44 Kobe rarely pop his jersey but I like how he got pumped up. Clearly was his year. I am gonna miss him play.
Damn watching that halftime interview with Sager and Kobe hurt. RIP to two basketball legends. 💔
Facts
49 and 10 with Kenyon Martin defending, not Rookies,
Kobe beat the lowkey superteam on paper AI and Carmelo. Swept them and nobody even talks about it. Just like he beat the defending Champs 4-1.
the nba should go back and give him all the mvps fr its just a disgrace
Kobe could do whatever he wanted on the court.. R.I.P to my G.O.A.T
Iverson interview bought me here
What Iverson interview
At his best while his ring and pinky fingers tied together. I can only imagine if he never gets injured(all his injury) he would at least avg 30ppg for 5 more seasons after 07
Facts
Damn mamba interview with sager (RIP)
“Same thing doesn’t matter”
Kobe is too gooooood.
Rest Easy Mamba 🙏🏼🕊
9:40 WHAT A GOAT MOMENT BRUH....
Bryant STILL HAD the HOPS @ 1:16; though it still was just past the mid point of his illustrious career though. I like how Marv called it just like the old times to "Here comes Bryant!!" nice dunk and call. What in the world was going on with Miller doing the play by play talking about "triple OCHO!!!" Marv was just to real when he responds with "Are you alright REG" with a serious mono tone voice...lol!!
This gave me chills! By far my fav player ever! This is probably my fav team or of any team Kobe had 💯💯💯💪🏾
iverson says this is his favorite kobe memory.
That stare down on the bench of denver is a killer and a treat..
9:46 is what you call greatness RIP kobe and gigi. Somewhere, someplace i know you're playing pick up with God. With smiles on your faces
Underrated playoff game of his career. Almost had a 50-point double double.
1:47 "are you alright Reg?" lol

You beat me too it

That 2k10 front cover right here 9:45 😂🙌🏾 Kobe the GOAT !!!
KOBE OLDER THAN ALL THESE YOUNG NEW PLAYERS. AND STILL TAKE TO THEM TO GYM CLASS AND ROCK'EM!
kobe flew at 1:15
THATS TRUE CAPTAIN KOBE BRYANT THE ONE AND ONLY MVP OF ALL TIME
This is my favorite game with Kobe. It was a statement game. Most don’t remember that the Celtics had won their game 3 literally minutes before this one started. This was that Pierce , Allen, Garnett Celtics. So all eyes were on the Lakers and Kobe to see what they had to offer. Kobe went out there and destroyed the Melo and Iverson Nuggets. Best game he’s ever played.
This was one of Kobe's best playoff performances against a solid Nuggets team, which they were the 8th seed w/ FIFTY wins... talk about the West being loaded! If this didn't prove that Kobe was the most complete player who could score from everywhere, let alone anywhere, in a variety of ways from the midrange, footwork w/ the jab step & crossover between the legs to finish at the rim, and even beyond the arc then I don't know what does... this man DESERVED more than ONE MVP. Kobe was in complete control of this game, set the tone by dropping 20 points in the 1st quarter which set up his teammates to get involved in the 2nd & 3rd quarters, since the attention was all on him, and allowed him to cruise and then closed them out in the 4th. Enough said, and I think Reggie meant to say "best player on the PLANET."
My favorite Kobe game.. absolutely dominant!!
Facts
offense is so graceful.
This wide screen view here is really nice for the game of basketball; it's the only time I really appreciate the wide screen mode on TV is when watching either basketball and or football; everything else is just way to out of proportion. It looks crazy to see something else like watching wrestling here on YT in a wide screen mode, it makes them all look like incredible hulks.
The "true" GOAT!!!!!!!!!
According to Reggie, Kobe's got some Michael Jordan and Michael Jackson in him.
I’m here because of what A.I said bout his favorite Kobe moment
Who's the only player in NBA history to sweep a 50 win 8th seed team...🤔 well that'll be the one and only Kobe Bean Bryant RIP LEGEND.
1:45 Reggie and Kobe had beef but eventually squashed everything up. Reggie was so damn pumped up leading to Marv wondering like "Are you okay, Reg?" 😂
Reg became a huge Kobe fan.
AI had an interview and they asked him about his favorite Kobe memory. AI said KENYON MARTIN was talking MAJOR trash to KOBE. He was referring to this game, and Kobe's halftime interview only confirmed it. 😂😂 y'all should see the full AI interview tho.
All the real ones know that from 2003-2012 he was the best. Deserved at minimum 5 mvpa out of those seasons .
I already miss Kobe Bryant. RIP, my hero and legend!
Kobes swagger here was off the charts 😂. Nobody has this type of confidence anymore
That hunger & passion Kobe played with was unmatched. R.I.P. Black Mamba 🐍 🐐
Damn, the Denver Nuggets team was so thug back then.
Rip to 2 legends craig sager and kobe bryant
He have 3 MVP and 5 championships.👍
I LOVE YOU KOBE ❤️
I remember this game so vividly. That jersey wave towards the end there was something ill always remember
Kobe Bryant 2007 2013 best years
That pass from Pau to Kobe was insane 7:20
This group and the d fish horry O’Neal Bryant were my lakers. It hurts a little watching this, knowing the legend has passed away. I always cherish these as my Lakers!
Why he didn’t used that short sleeve anymore after that season? He was the first player I saw using it like that.
Long live Kobe Bryant you will forever be missed your hard working work ethic and mental toughness no one is better than you 🐐
Kobe played great on this season but it would have been better if he had won the championship on this year! Too bad he could have tied MJ's rings
Losing Trevor Ariza and Bynum really hurt them.
+egpytiankobe yeah it's right, it would have been sweeter if he won the championship back at 2008 because he really played well on this season and was an mvp. I really want to hate the celtics! hahaha but it's crazy!!
+Jan Mejares I know. It's like the one that got away! I mean Boston was a defensive juggernaut that year and KG was super hungry, but add a healthy Ariza and Bynum and who knows how the series would've played out.
I actually cried when we lost, I was 11 so I think it's alright, Kobe was my idol at the time.
Idgaf about mvps. Players and the coaches still knew and said he was the best. The team just hadn't the best in some of those years. That's ok...
Rest In Peace Kobe. You will always be missed.

This that game Iverson was talking about in his interview with complex lbs Kenyon kept trash talking him in those series, AI told him to leave him alone before he snaps and welp , it happened 😂😂😂
Where can I watch the interview??😂😂
this guy was a god fr. no one shuld evern try and we all see when he wants he can pass the ball so easy so easy. lebron has no chance ever its blasphemy. if ariza and bynum played they would have won three in a row fr kd watched kobe am sure kd watched kobe tapes
This team started Luke Walton and old man Derrick Fisher had Jordan Farmer, Sasha Vujacic, and Vladmir Radmanovic as major role players and went to the finals in a pretty tough west. Yet LeBron couldn't even make the playoffs with Rajon Rondo, Lance Stephenson, and Brandon Ingram.
@Mohammad Angkaya casual take
@Mohammad Angkaya Never talk basketball again. You clearly give no context. Also in 2013 final bron had 16 straight points in 4th quarter to get heat back in lead and in game 7 bron dropped almost 40 when Allen had 0 points. In 2016 bron led both teams in all categories
@Mohammad Angkaya I mean what do you expect dude. If someone thinks Lebron is the greatest of all time, they just haven't watched enough basketball.
Kobe Bryant the Wizard!!! The greatest basketball player in the world!!!!!!
I CAN'T BELIEVE DENVER WAS THE 8TH SEED IN THE PLAYOFFS WITH ALL THAT TALENT THEY HAD.
Dennis Magee I mean they had 50 wins... the problem was every single playoff team in the West had 50 wins also. 1-8 seed all had 50+wins. Insane!
Dominique Carroll RIGHT THAT SHOWS HOW TALENT THE PLAYERS WERE YEARS AGO VS NOW. IT WAS MORE EXCITING TO WATCH THEN VS NOW. IT IS BORING NOW AND THE TALENT LEVEL IS HORRIBLE!
Dennis Magee yeah it’s not evenly spread! West is great, Ease is weak. But that just lets you know how good you have to be to win a Championship, & for Kobe to have 5 ring in the West! That’s something special
Dominique Carroll I AGREE WITH YOU NOW THE PLAYOFFS ARE BORING AND THERE ARE ONLY A FEW TEAMS AND PLAYERS ARE EVEN WATCHABLE.
This is unreal he couldve easily had a 60pt+ 10ast game
Absolutely dominant. I’ve never seen any other athlete snatch souls like Kobe Bryant. The greatest.
how can you defend this kind of skills all around offense .
my favorite Kobe version of all time
And 11 years later he is completely disrespected by Bleacher Report
RIP Craig Sager
