"They shook the tree, & the MAMBA FELL OUT"...🤣🤣🤣🔥🔥🔥
Kenyon Martin = dumbest player to ever live
Right????
Classic
🤞🏿
That's a bar
Dude was just chilling and Kenyon Martin had to open up his mouth. 😂😂😂
Now ask Kenyon about Kobe today..he loves Kobe 🤣🤣 Kobe had to beat the respect outta him
@@Marcus_shawn 😂😂😂
I would have told the coach sit Kenyon on the bench, lol . Don't make this a terrible night for us.
Kenyon was never known to be classy or respectful. Glad he got humbled.
@@Marcus_shawnsame with jones and bell
As great as this story is, you can appreciate the authentic feelings of admiration he had for Kobe.... RIP MAMBA
They had for each other
Yeah you can tell it hurt him while it made him smile.
You can tell he's really hurt he's gone
@@pauldkb1700 definitely that was his homie
They had some of the greatest battles ever that's why..
MJ was MJ but man Kobe , the mamba , man I miss him , cried seeing him walk off the court. broke seeing him leave this earth 😭
💯💯😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😢
I'm with you buddy! Still don't have the heart to watch any of his games except his last one. I just can't,it's too emotional!
Same😣
It took everything out of me. My life hasnt been the same
To be honest it's not hard to do. You have to spend countless time in the gym 🏋️♂️. Practice constantly like there's no tomorrow and work on every part of your game. You won't notice how much better you got until you get on the court and play. Practice is harder than the games. And you'd notice how much better you when comparing yourself to the other players that do, or don't, have that same mentality. I used to go out and Practice an hour before my friends would come to the court. They saw the results and it felt good being one of the better players out there. Practicing was also a form of meditation 🧘♂️ for me.
Kobe will always be my GOAT. And I know Kobe’s passing really affected Iverson. Iverson was genuinely sad when Kobe died. They had many wars together. RIP Black Mamba ✌🏾💜💛
@@misterscollard he said his Goat. Like you have one
They both had huge respect for each other. Kobe, as great as he was, really respected other guys skills. Most top players like Jordan seem to resent other great players.
My 🐐 as well
Mine too.
''IMO'' Kobe was the best to ever do it , he made it look effortless and beautiful to see his work . Truly sad he is gone .
*one of
Yes
He was extremely talented with a beautiful game but I just can’t call him the GOAT because his efficiency wasn’t always the greatest and he had ball hog tendencies.
@@TheRealAbraxas So does your mom so i understand where you're coming from .
That boy not even top 5
That’s some cold ish to say “ they shook the tree and the mamba fell out”😂😂
That's not no cold "tish" 2 say , That is some "REAL TISH" TO SAY!!! 😤😠
Niether,its actually pretty pedestrian
@@erichvonmanstein6876 mambadestrian
What I like about Allen Iverson is he has so much Respect to the Older generation, much love to his Generation, and supportive to the current guys
Ummm kobe and Iverson were the same draft class of 96 I want to say
@@Jh-xs1og that's great, so you dont understand the comment do you
@@erichvonmanstein6876 Nahh Boss he couldn’t have even read the comment correctly….
When you know how great you are then you don't get caught up in your ego. I can tell you about your greatness because I already know that I am great myself.
@@Jh-xs1ogthe way its written by the original commenter ,it makes you think he was speaking about the older generation, because of the way it was phrased, I bet if he put that first sentence at the end and the other two sentences at first you would have grasped it. I understood it but I also see how you may have not understood it because of the placement of the sentences. However, maybe to him though it was a priority for him to speak about how he had love for the older generation more than talk about the latter. I can see both sides of the coin. It's all good, hope you know what he meant now though.
The look in AI's eyes he knew at that point Kenyan f***** up😆😆💯
🥶 just straight chills
Yep🤣🤣🤣
"Mannn leave him ALONE " 😂😂 Kobe had the boys shookth!!
Reminds me of the meme bruh what you doin 😅
MIKE.JORDEN EYES USE TO LOOK JUST LIKE CHUCK EYES SEEN MJ UP CLOSE ENOUGH TO NOTICE HIS EYES DON'T KNOW WHY I NOTICE THAT ABOUT THAT MAN BROWN EYES AND YES KOBE WAS TO ME BABY GOAT JR.TRUTH YOU ALL KNOW THIS IS TRUE
I wasn't a big Kobe fan... but the dude was one of the greatest competitors in NBA history with the talent to back it up
🤝
💯
2 real legends of the NBA . Mad respect.
Facts
Yup, Kenyon Martin was the GOAT
@@lanysmith1321 I'm a UC bearcat and avid Kenyon Martin fan...but he's not the 🐐
@@crunckNATIon he trolling
@@Beanismygoat hopefully
You can see Kobe untimely passing still has a sincere touching effect on AI. You can hear in his voice and see in eyes 👀... He truly loss his brother and its a forever hurt for him.
He used the negativity and trash talking as a weapon and fuel!
Ain‘t nobody could mess with the Mamba. A killer on the court and beautiful person off the court. R.I.P. Kobe 🐍🙏🏼🕊
FACTS
100%
Nope, the mamba mentality is like ultra instinct. When you're mad you just focus on the game without even thinking. That's why players looked for a reason to get mad. It gave like an extra edge and is hard to guards because your game flows like water 💧, especially if you're already an elite player. That's why the player to fear is the one that gets quiet 🤫. When he doesn't respond to you, it's pretty much over. You fed him exactly what he needed. Lord knows I loved when people pushed me over the edge on the court. 😆
Similar to Eminem 💯
@@younglove3362 Sounds kind of like some of that stuff he learned from the best, MJ!!
That’s what inspired the iconic photo of Kobe’s Mamba roar. Thanks Kenyon!
Shook the tree and the mamba fell out is one of the coldest lines
Shook the tree and the mamba fell out 😂😂😂
Kobes one of one.. NBA is never the same.. rest in peace KOBE 🙏🙏🙏
FACTS
He's version 2
@@demigodt34 he's Kobe
@@hashmoncrief6965 he's is kobe.... but you know exactly what I'm talking about r.i.p to the baby goat
A.I. Said “Tsss…leave em alone”😂😂😂☠️
😂😂😂😂😂
Iverson had a lot of respect and love for koby that the media could never cover.
You really misspelled Kobe?? Like how
@@Rzxxp yeah mistakes get made everyday Luckily it didn’t ruin your day.
Who is koby
Facts
They showed their friendship when they played against each other.
This is one of my favorite stories of Kobe,especially coming from A.I. I love hearing stories of Kobe from his close friends,his teammates,and even all the people who played against him. It feels so unreal that Kobe is gone. Sigh..😢
No other superstar beyond kobe’s time have these kinds of anecdotes.1 of kind killa
FACTS
Because most of them still living and the others were before internet cable and NBA on free TV live.
The amount of admiration that A.I had for Kobe is immeasurable.. Pure passion and love just radiates from every word!! Two of the 🐐 to ever lace em up
AI a heartfelt dude that bleeds basketball. You could see him get emotional despite every time you see him talk. That’s passion for the game. Salute!!!!
Kobe told us he was wired different! Hatred and pressure, is comforting for The Black Mamba!
the clip of kobe shaking his jersey, that energy gave me chills. always loved seeing him play
It's always crazy to me when these amazing basketball players talk about these kobe moments. Their recollection of these moments is amazing. Just goes to show how much of an impact the mamba was and continues to be.
Kobe bean Byrant Aka the black mamba my favorite player of all time and he was a fantastic player's that laced up a pair of sneakers 👟 god rest his soul wow he was one player that didn't fear anything he would beat the breaks off anyone he didn't even care I miss you Kobe
YES FACTS
Jordan is my fave but I have to admit kobe always scored the most points on jordan💯
When Kobe was playing my Rockets in the playoffs and Ron Artest got in Kobe face that was so exciting. Then Kobe did what Kobe does..game over..😢
I remember that game like yesterday. Kobe went off. An amazing talent and great ambassador of the NBA while he played. 🙏🏾🕊💪🏾
I miss him so much. I wish he was still talking about life and basketball, inspiring me in the hard days of my life. Since he's dead, I feel like I lost a father figure, I know that's asinine but, watched him from the beginning till the end. Watched him retire and gave his insights about dedication, passion, and craftsmanship. He was helping me, and now... There is a void in my life after he checked out, and I feel like there are lots of people like me out there missing him. RIP
AI loved Kobe, it’s real. Every time he speaks on him you see how he could cry. Makes me like AI that much more
Certain players you can't trash talk and believe me kobe is one of them
Rest in peace Kobe.
These stories never get old.
Truly wasn't a kobe Bryant fan thought he was to much this and that. when I heard about his passing my heart broke. black Mamba forever. 💜
❤️💕❤️... We LOVE You AI, and miss You Kobe
That’s epic man. This guy Kobe IS something else. I say ‘is’ because a spirit like that, the mamba spirit, lasts forever. What we do on this earth echoes in eternity.
Kobe was always ready. Even when he was injured that he would miss some games. He was always ready.
Kobe mentioned it to "Chuck " because only a few of them when you get them angry they turn a game where they have other things on their mind but now they turn it on you! AI can do it too. The switch to turn it on sputters as they age, love it.
Allen Iverson! A real one
A GOAT talking about A GOAT ❤
Kobe is The G.O.A.T.
Hold up now. Let's not get carried away.
@@d02045062 Kobe is The G.O.A.T.
close if we keeping it a buck hes 2 behind lebron….
jordan was was the man in his time but it was a different level of athlete.
kobe back in mjs day would be going off dont get me started on what lebron would do.
@@gunplaygaming6830 Bron wouldn't look as good as he is now. Remember, everyone today is doing what they do with no-touch defense.
When Jordan played, you got hammered. And Jordan was STILL that good.
Jordan today would average 40+, easily. That man shot 50% and averaged 37 one season, getting killed every time he went to the basket. Imagine today, when you can't touch him.
Lebron wouldn't have the same numbers in the late 80's, early 90's NBA. He'd still be great, I'm sure, but you greatly underestimate the players from back then.
Let's just say Bron is the best player of today's NBA.
But Jordan is the GOAT, and it's not really close unless you want to put Wilt in there.
I think one real way to prove it is, you hear these stories like this one about Jordan and Kobe. There are loads of them.
There's not a single one about Lebron. When is the last time someone talked to Lebron and he went off and punished them? Ever?
🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿Kobe
You can always tell how much Kobe’s peers respect and miss him
They shook the tree and the mamba fell out 🥶💯 He was soo cold I still get chills R.i.p KOBE
We all miss kobe our hearts hurt everything someone speaks his name
I love the respect in his voice and expression. AI
Thats why I miss kobe, he didn't FEAR NOBODY.
People say black mamba
I feel honey badger
Yk u a bad mf when you go against mike like he aint mike wheter u good or not
Yea because the original black mamba is Roger Mayweather. RIP to both of these amazing legends. Honey badger one of my favorite animals. Fearless great analogy🙏💯
I remember that game, Kobe was passing all first quarter, chillin then he went off for 49
Kobe was the freakin man! I miss him.
I got to see Kobe play once against Atlanta and to see him in person versus on television is totally different they lost the game but to see him move and shoot and dissect the game with ease was something I will never forget
That game made the cover of 2k10 or 2K within the last decades.
Dang I miss. Kobe 💞
To me these stories of MJ and Kobe are the best because they'll literally just be having an "off night", mind probably somewhere else while they're putting up like 15pts and once someone trash talks them, they immediately turn it on and drop like 30 more points just because. Truest competitors I've ever seen in the NBA.
If "Don't get him started" were people
The best thing is that a Killer knows another Killer. I still can’t believe Kobe is gone. Salute to the best to ever do it in Purple and Gold. 💪🏽💜💛😢
If you do a trash talk against Jordan or Kobe, make sure you have bet on the opposite team
They different
Facts XD 🤣😂... just leave them alone if they are just cruising... don't let their tongues start wagging
Love Kobe. Miss Kobe. I appreciate A.I. for the story telling.
Love this. Always appreciated how honest AI is when he speaks. My favourite player ever
Bubba chuck was the goat in high-school sports.
Stop acting like you know him to call him by his nickname.....if he didn't say it in the video you would have typed Allen.....how would you like if someone you didn't know nvm.....lames do lame things
This is Factz! B ball n Football! Sheesh! VA in the building!
It’s hard to find, but check out the video of him playing QB. Amazing. Ran the option…. SMH.
I miss him so much he was the man 👍🏾👍🏾
Kobe had that same killer instinct that Jordan had. With their talent level and intelligence they define their sport. Generational phenom!
Facts
Mamba4ever 💜 💛
He picked the wrong tree to shake that day 🤷🏽♂️
King
Of
Being
Elite
🙏🏽👑
This is pure humility... Consider that AI is one of the only humans to outscore Kobe 48 to 15 in a Game 1 showdown at the finals. AI put on an absolute clinic that game. But his humility is so big that he gave the interviewer the story in this video instead. THAT is championship grade material most people will never comprehend. Huge respect!! 👑
Don't wake a sleeping giant
Let sleeping dawgs lie
You KNOW you're a Legend when every great player that played with you or against you has a story like this to tell about you...RIP G.O.A.T!
Gives you chills
The game that got him on the cover of 2k
The greatest! KB24/8
All the teams & players will remember him. Kobe didn't have to join in their talk;- they just fired him up to show his game. Actions speak louder than words. Right on Kobe.
Appreciation from one Goat to another.. respect.. RIP Kobe❤
That is why they always say" Never wake up a sleeping giant.
Exactly ☺️
Its best to go quiet around the bigs imo
Kobe a beast even MJ shook the tree and got a 50 piece on his mug 😂
Iverson a realist dude to kobe. I can listen to all this man's interviews. He should be a speaker
Even though I witnessed some of the KB basketball stories.... I could still listen to stories about him.... and how KB destroyed competitors on the court . RIP Mamba 🕊👑 🕊 24
The iconic jersey flutter celebration we all love
Kobe was FEARLESS. He might’ve emulated MJ with certain moves, but the heart of a champion cannot be taught, it’s EARNED.
I just cannot belive kobe is gone. I remember when. He arrived in LA. 1996. I'm older than kobe but it hit me soooo hard when He passed. God speed kobe Gianna and all on board 🙏🏽
Some legends are naturally more gifted at just having one style, but its more rewarding watching a great growth over his peers gradually over the years. Yeah kobe at the beginning of his career adopted similarities to jordan style, but he eventually started adopting off of different players to perfection and being his own man. R.i.p Mamba
Kobe!!! KOBE
Kenyon should of just played bball..Love Kobe 4 ever
He's greatly appreciated and missed! And we the generation you created love you Chuck! Generation X! We love you brotha!
Man we lost Kobe way too soon...RIP MAMBA
I believe if kobe lives, he becomes the real life Tony Stark/Bruce Wayne …Like investments and philanthropy that would indeed have changed the world for the better.
If someone picked at LeBron like that, he would have them thrown out of the game.
🤣🤣🤣
Crybaby
🤣🤣🤣 💯
😭😭 ..
Lebron lives in your head rent free 😂
Chuck said it right when Bean is quiet he's about to go off. Each and every story that started like this always ended with him going stoooopid. I live in MD and paid the extra fee to watch Lakers games when Bean was playing and he never disappointed me.
I like how in all the kobe stories the players tell and re enact jusy like it was. Kobe is and was in everyones mind. Thats the mamba mentality. Kobe will make you remember. Hes was the one that kept players up at nights. Straight dawg out there.
Kobe was our MJ, if you never played basketball 🏀 you’d say “ Kobe” when throwing something in the trash 😂
Don't mess with greatness there's no defense for it
You call them natural Gods at what they do
I remember this game like it was yesterday. I was on the basketball team in 8th grade and the day after this game aired i had a game and i remember watching the highlights of this game in my computer class over and over before my game studying his moves. He straight embarrassed the nuggets that game, he was scoring anyway you could think of, and they were playing tough playoff defense too this wasn’t the regular season. And i had a great game that night too thinking i was kobe 🤣🥲 r.i.p mamba
Kobe Mentality is he work super hard in practice so that in game it will be easier for him
AI is my favorite player all time
Factz 💯💯💯
Jordan is mine. But AI is my favorite dribbler of all time. Never saw anyone in the NBA that made more pros fall from his monster crossovers. I mean nobody till this day had better ball control with those handels than AI💯
Kenyon.. too tough for no reason 🤣
That was great for The Answer to have respect for Kobe as Kobe had on him.
Real GOATS don’t toot their own horn. So in love with the game that they just give props. That’s why Iverson is my GOAT.
내나이 43세인데 NBA팬으로서 43세라는 나이의 장점중 하나가 AI,코비의 플레이를 데뷔부터 끝까지 볼수있었다는거 단점은 그들의 플레이를 이제 볼수없다는거..
🐍8 - 24🐍
👆♥️👆
A I 3 ☆ Kobe 8/24...my two favorite players!!!
Jordan and Kobe you leave alone.
I'd choose to watch 1 game with Kobe over an entire season without him.
Kobe u will never be forgotten and always missed.
