It's always good day to hear stories about the old Greats, but I really appreciate hearing the perspective of those underrated players that silently affected the game!
Pause
Shane Battier is lowkey legendary! I miss seeing my Rockets with TMac, Yao, Battier, Skip, Luther Head, Mutumbo, chuck, etc! That Rockets team would’ve won the ship if we were healthy. We took lakers 7 without any of our best players being healthy lol.
I remember them calling Shane the Kobe stopper with Raja Bell and Bruce Bowen… they didn’t stop him but they made him work. Kobe still got his though. 40+ ppg 😂😂
Battier's hand over the face defense was legendary.
Kobe didn't avg anywhere close to 40, or 35, against any of them. I won't keep lowering the number, or mention the shooting percentage, but Kobe didn't get close to cooking 2 of them.
@@asgasg23he absolutely cooked them 💍x5
@@asgasg23 Lmao he avg 28.8 on battier alone and if u know basketball then u know that to average 28 u have to score more than 28 a lot of times because you will have games that u score less than 28 now with that being said some notable games where he ABSOLUTELY cooked Shane because we don’t even have to talk about him slaughtering Bowen and Patterson no matter what they tried mostly in PLAYOFF games btw; 56, 53, 53, 45, 45, 45 and a PLETHORA of 25+ point games and that’s just on Battier.
@patitoduck123 This kid is is prolly one of those that think Kobe is overrated because of videos like this but can’t seem to stay away from watching and commenting on how much Kobe “ball hogged” “shot poor percentages” which he said numerous times he never gave a fuck about fg% as long as he makes the shots thats needed to win and got 5 rings with that mentality. It’s sad Kobe haters really can’t face facts because when it comes down to it they’re mad he’s greater than their king because of mentality not stats.
Being a Kobe i use to love their battles. I was always a Shane fan simply because I could feel the respect Kobe had for him. Respect
The Kobe and Battier battles, mainly the Lakers vs Rockets matchups were always classic to watch! I still remember Kobes classic line "You can't guard me!"
In the OP on the Rockets T-mac, Ming, Artest... Artest shouted to his team that he would cover Kobe. Kobe was then standing at the free-throw line. He said something like "I knew you were crazy, but that you had also become a comedian I didn't know." I don't remember the exact words, but something like that. Laekrs won the series and then the champion. There is this video on YT. Somewhere...
@erebor4nierdzewny970
Haha yeah I remember that! Then Metta joined Kobe and the Lakers and the rest they say is history
Dude, Battier is the man. Watched that dude his whole career. Favorite Duke player.
He told this story on the Q and D podcast but still love hearing it, R.I.P. Kobe
Nobody stopped Kobe but they made it tough for him. He still averaged over 30ppg on each “elite defender”.
No,he didnt
@@jonnyblayze514928 pretty close
“False humility” is WILD! I know a few folks with that, and now I can add that phrase to my lexicon 🤣
Dope.. always respect defenders like this. Hats off SB
THE KOBE RESPECT IS SO REFRESHING COMPARED TO THIS WASH MEDIA AND SELL OUT NEW MEDIA! KEEP IT ABOUT THE GAME! 🔥🔥🔥
What amazes me is that some players would compete offensively with Kobe. Others were defensive pests with him. A much more exclusive group would go beyond the physical aspect of the game looking for an answer to an unsolvable problem. Kobe always came on top.
Do you know how hard it is to be elite in that many levels?
Sh*t blows my mind. Bean was physically gifted, intelligent, confident, methodic and hard working. Truly one of a kind.
Reggie Miller said Mike Kobe Magic and Larry were playing chess while everyone else was playing checkers. As great as some other players were, this sounds right to me.
Off the rip KOBE, that’s damn right Shane keepin it 💯 finally no lebron narratives on Kobe
Love Shane that guy never gave up on defense
Shane seems like such a cool cat. He and Kobe with their mind games. That’s crazy!!! 😂
I remember watching an interview battier said he would just try to cover Kobe’s eyes when he would go up for a jump shot. ESPN would show a slow mo of it. Kobe would say that sh!t didn’t work lmao.
Please OG’s don’t ever get on Klutch Sports payroll. I will watch this shit til yall done i stg
If you know you know 😂
Really love to hear the role player's perspective against or with the greats
I want to hear these stories but Haslem always got to speak like he. Is the toughest guy in the 7th grade.
toughest guy in 7th grade😂😂😂
Beautiful conversation, long live #24
That didn't age well
@@jonnyblayze5149 whatever you’re talking about
@@THEFARREEL that made sense....🙄
@@jonnyblayze5149 👍
4:14 one of the best Kobe stories I’ve heard 😂
Haslem always gives himself compliments all the time 😂
It’s like Jet Li vs Donnie Yen in the movie, “Hero.” It all takes place in the mind.
I feel like battier sounds like what Mike should sound and vice versa.

Sick story💪🏾
AMAZING
Shane Battier makes Wayne Brady look like Tupac Shakur.
Shooting percentages is on thing that Kobe don't care at all. As Long as he wins and win titles that's what only counts for him. He knows he's not as athletic as Mike, He knows he got an inferior anatomy than him as well. But he maximized what he got .
Kobe's true shooting percentage was actually good every year before the Achilles tare. In context he was efficient no matter how many shots he took..
Udonis is one of those people who always gives himself a lot more credit than anyone else will. Mainly due to his perception of reality being a total lie. Then again, only someone that narcissistic would take up a roster spot when he adds no value to a team.
Respect! @ShaneBattier
Shane was a great defender
kobe was smart as hell for that. wtf. lmao top 3 all time in my book my fav since i was 11 years old
That Dad Gang IYKYK
Til this day, nobody ralks about how LIGHTS OUT SHANE was in MIA. & if he had TMac in 09, he’d likely would’ve beaten Kobe. One of my favorite players ever.
6:30 yes they did 😂😂
Shane, you mean that playoff run when kobe said you cant guard me, when he was torching artest and he got ejected.. you mean when kobe threw it off the back board and got the layup on yao, that book.. yea, throw that mfer out 😂😂😂
Man I use to hate seeing battier as a lakers fan.
I knew he was going to be a pest on defense. I respect that so much tho
Mike HATES Kobe. He can’t let it go.
Like this story but definitely been told multiple times. lol
Somebody rumored to be a kobe stopper and that same game he hit 2 buzzer beaters
Hes a smart mofo... when u look at analytics and percentages and you stick to your guns doing it... your lit doing the smartest thing possible.. numbers dont lie and if someone is worse say going left.. why woudnt you force them left? Even if there on fire... it makes sense
Kobe never ducked any smoke not even in a physical altercation with the big fella diesel 😂😊
He got banked on by Chris childs
Lebron will never be in Kobe class , ever dummy today that says Lebron is better forget that Lebron had to be mentored by Battier and Ray Allen to get that toughness, Kobe had it in High School and joined the most elite Basketball franchise that back then were run by Greats like Jerry West , while at the Cavs , Lebron froze in lots of playoff games and never showed that Killer Instinct like Kobe , he had to be thought by Pat Riley and Battier the way to win , Kobe developed it on his own , drove everyone with obsession at early 20s, just different Animal, Stats don’t mean anything, The key pressure moments are what matters in sports!!!!
You know Shane Battier has Lebron as the GOAT. You don't have to diminish another player to prop somebody else up, and I am a Kobe fan.
👏👏👏
Shane doesnt age lol
He's told this story like 50x before.
What do you mean untold? Lol 💀
But Klay can guard Kobe lol smh
@@tiemann55 Lol I was being sarcastic cause that’s what draymond said lmao
First day of training camp and you already know you on a team that aint gonna win the championship lol
Jesus Christ how long does it take to just tell the story without all this other bullshit
yoooooooooooooooooo
So I attacked him 💀
Kobe lived for the smoke, even as a teenager, he wanted to play the best and be the best. He lived for those moments and was the greatest tough shot taker of all time.
That's not a good thing kid
@@jonnyblayze5149 who do you think you are talking to? It was a good thing for kobe as he got 5 rings and you have nothing
@@heatman233223 you mean I have the same thing YOU have right. Although I never said I played NBA ball, or wanted to or tried to, or anything of the sort. So why would I have "something" from the NBA? ........if you need a break just put your phone down and rest your neck kid.
@@heatman233223 and my statement stands , that's not a good thing kid.
@@heatman233223 and since it's only you and I here I'll let that first part slide so people won't see how stupi d asking who I was talking to is.🤣😅😆😁🤭👉
RIP one of the GOATS. I love stories like this.
Love everyone’s stories are “send him this way he gets 30, send him the other way and he gets 50. I’ll take the 30”
You young fans just don’t understand what it was like to watch Kobe every night
I remember watching Lakers vs Rockets and Kobe was draining shots despite Shane Battier being draped all over him and using his hand to cover Kobe’s face. Never seen a player score over defense like that. Fuck man…
@@Serching4JerryGarcia he destroyed him ! His mentality is absent in today’s NBA . There’s not 1 player with killer mentality. No friends . You’re the enemy . That’s how sports should be .
That’s so fucking cool the game within the game ❤❤❤❤❤
Should not mention Melo, he gave yal 50 all jumpers
Haslem speaks like he was a above average player. Insane
He's a GREAT player in his own mind.
Haslem spent 20 YEARS in the league. Give him some respect.
@@wesismay9309 I give Haslem his due,he was a stand-up guy for the Heat,hard-working,faithful and steady,Riley re-warded him for his loyalty and hard-work with a nice job in the Heat organization.He has a huge mansion sized residence that is-PLUSH-and awesome,but,like you said he put in 20 yrs and was rewarded for it.Did his business the right way ( no drug dealing or other criminal activity )now lives a very nice comfortable life and making mucho money.
The ultimate glue guy
The key is longevity
I have to go back to the book to confirm this 😂 but it did sound like Kobe tho
shane battier was so cold on defense.
Wow Rest easy KOBE
