The best highlights of the 2009 NBA Finals Game 5.

[@Heisman-em8gp]

I believe this one brought Kobe the most joy. The 1st one after the Shaq duo. Rest in Heaven homie as well as beautiful GiGi!

[@ronaszn9728]

Kobe said himself that beating Boston was his favorite

[@rrboss33]

Boston one

[@ihawms950]

Boston

[@Heisman-em8gp]

Oh ok that's my bad it was Boston.

[@subairali8075]

@@Heisman-em8gp this one was my personal favorite. Seeing Kobe in his prime torching the magic.

[@Dengchiii]

11 years later, Dwight Howard won his first ring in Orlando, as a Laker. Congratulations Dwight. You really deserved your ring.

[@24n8]

Crazy how much can change in 6 years. Kobe is the only player still playing for either of these teams. Half these guys aren't even in the league anymore.

Kobe Bryant at his prime.. what beauty

[@NeedMoreJuice.]

Not Prime

[@khristianpeel7165]

+Rax Lex He won the MVP the year before. Yes this was him in his prime.

[@NeedMoreJuice.]

Khristian Peel Kobe's prime is 2005-2007

[@khristianpeel7165]

Rax Lex From 05'-07' he scored a ton of points but he wasn't winning anything. Not his fault I know because of the team he had around him but from 08'-11' he was still just as good. He could've scored 35 ppg those years but they didn't need him to.

[@NeedMoreJuice.]

Khristian Peel 2005 - 2007 can do it all Impossible Fadeaways , Three Point Buzzer Beater , Windmill and 360 Dunks and just a straight up beast defensively.

[@Andymat007]

I met Trevor Ariza at a haircutting place "Diamond Cuts", around La Tijera Blvd., 3 months before the end of the 2008-09 season, he's a really cool guy, and only got his autograph!! I told him "you're a solid player", and he appreciates it! After all that... The lakers won the title!! What an awesome moment!

[@itr0863]

i met him too when he played for the magic. I'm not surprised by your comment, because he was the same. super chill dude.

[@Andrew-yv6tt]

Lakers legend always!

[@bryantrobertson1511]

This 2009 playoffs was Kobe Best He was hungry for a championship after losing to Boston in the 2008 Finals he was hungry all season and played great if this Kobe could had stayed throughout the rest of his seasons in the NBA he probably could had 2 to 3 more years in him and be playing today But Great Career and Nobody can't take it away from him.

[@TheDignam]

Kobe was an Extremely Hardworker, his body at the end was "tired", that's why he was always injured at the end...

[@SIRKskywalker]

R.I.P. Legend! Some didn’t appreciate your greatness! 😔

[@retrokev6862]

I definitely did... I been collecting Kobe's merch since '96 and going back and watch this Final game of the 2010 NBA Finals brought me to say is... I still have that same purple Lakers jersery he won the 🏆 in. R.I.P Kobe "Bean" love you 👨

[@docpj72]

Biggz Zillah Yeah-they really came together after losing in the Finals in '08. Lamar Odom played great as a 6th man along with their other bench players including Ariza...but Kobe took over in this game!

[@marcusayers2653]

Biggz Zillah Sam's here.

[@marcusayers2653]

Biggz Zillah same here.

[@rumbajuice]

Kobe Bryant and Phil Jackson shut down the doubters during this run. How Kobe won't win without Shaq, Phil only wins because he had Shaq and Michael, that it would take more for them to win. And then they win. Back to back. Certainly one of my favorite NBA moments growing up.

[@TheGreatHeisman]

Man... I miss those days :(

12:46 to 13:26, I love hearing that old ESPN theme. That theme was meant for Kobe and that was his era.

[@thatsarock]

Most people don't know that Kobe said in an interview that he always had his jersey in his mouth to suck out the sweat to hydrate himself so he didn't have to come out of the game. That's straight dedication.

Rest In Peace Mamba. I love you and you'll be missed forever.

Oh Kobe! Whenever I miss you I always watch the Lakers 2009 and 2010 NBA championship win! To see you so happy and alive back then. Even if you are now but a memory.

[@uvuvwevwevweonyetenyevweug9353]

Laker fan here, but I was cheering so damn hard for the Cavs in that year and the next so they could finaly reach the Finals and get massacred by the Mamba and put a stop to all of the Kobe and LAbron debate coz clearly Kobe is a better player.

[@ChadSesh]

so true

[@chookalatemuffin]

+Watch Me Nein Nein. If you were a Laker fan you would want Celtics to make it so we could get our revenge. You are a Kobe fan and Lebron hater.

[@uvuvwevwevweonyetenyevweug9353]

chookalatemuffin STFU boy if you really followed that season KG was out no way they could make it to the Finals, also I wanted the Kobe-Labron debate to be over. Prayers for Odom tho.

[@chookalatemuffin]

Watch Me Nein Nein. So I stand corrected. You are not a Laker fan but actually a Lebron hater.

[@uvuvwevwevweonyetenyevweug9353]

chookalatemuffin Lol idiot ofc I hate everyone not playing for the Lakers specially Labron since he and Kobe are rivals and shit. It's like saying you don't want Magic to beat Larry Bird in the 80's don't be stupid.

[@sheapablo24]

I want to know what made Trevor Ariza leave LA. I know it was probably about money, but he finally found a place where he was needed and he left. Luckily he did and we got the man loved by laker fans, Metta World Peace

[@sonofaballer96]

Ron Artest was better ;)

[@sheapablo24]

sonofaballer96 Yes i know. I love Artest man lmao

[@NotoriousYeshi]

He left because his Agent was a greedy motherfucker. He got offered nearly the exact same amount of money that he got in Houston by the Lakers, but the Lakers deal was a 3 year deal, and the Houston deal was longer, either 4 or 5 years. but the money amounted to being the same per year before taxes.

[@TheDignam]

The Rockets proposed him, a better contract $$$
