    The torn Achilles free throws will always amaze me, I remember watching it live thinking he wasn't that hurt because he barely showed it. I have see players with the same injury rolling on the ground screaming like their leg just got cut off 😂, Kobe winced and walked over to shoot free throws and then walks off the court. He was not only the hardest working player in NBA history but one of the toughest ever also.

      I love KB but I have to say MJ had him beat on that one. KB could make all sorts of ridiculously tough shot, but MJ just handled it with his fade-away, not as fancy as KB, but it was consistent, it was deadly, most importantly, how easily MJ made those fade-away just bust all hope defending MJ. KB's offense was probably more diverse than MJ I think.

    I've been a Phoenix Suns fan for 35 years.. and here we hate LA. It's instilled into us as kids. If you're born in Arizona. You hate everything LA in the sports world. I hated Kobe, but I respected his game. How hard he worked and the kind of man he was off the court. He was a superstar basketball player and a loving husband and dad to his wife and daughters. Kobe was special. Truly, TRULY the closest we'll ever see to another Jordan. There will never be another Kobe Bryant. I was blessed to watch Kobe play for the 20 amazing seasons he played in the NBA as a Laker. He is the ONLY Laker I truly admire. I miss you Kobe. I miss seeing you preach about Mamba Mentality. Hearing you share your wisdom and life changing advice you gave to the kids and adults alike. God bless you in heaven forever Kobe. RIP. The basketball world still isn't the same without you here in it. The Lakers are up 3 games to 1 on the Warriors in the semis and you and Gigi should be sitting Courtside watching your Lakers succeed onto the Conference Finals. RIP Mamba.

    Idc what player you believe is the GOAT, you have to respect and recognize this man's greatness. It's a shame that people try to downplay what he has done because they want to argue whether MJ or Lebron is better... just chill out and accept that Kobe has changed the game of basketball for the better simply with his grit and work ethic alone. His skill was always there, but it simply was never good enough for him no matter what he accomplished, and as a Spurs fan, I could never look past the blessing I've had getting to watch the Black Mamba play the game of basketball.

    No one can match this GOAT. He was always in his own universe. Never cried about plays. Played through pain and broken fingers to CHIPS. Loyal to his fans til the end.
