I remember tears streaming down my face when I saw Michael Jordan run into the locker room after winning the Championship, collapsing to the floor and crying out "Daddy" "I love you Daddy" "This ones for you Daddy" "I love you" getting teary eyed writing this Michael, who's father was murdered a year before, the most touching and humbling moment I have ever seen in my life. I'm sure Kobe Lebron and Derrick were watching and felt the same way. I love these 4. Nothing but respect for all of them.Come back Kobe, your the last image of Michael and yourself that we have left!!! And I'm a die hard Dubs fan saying this. Steph will be in this group one day. Only cried two times in my life during sports. The Giants winning their first World Series in 2010, and Michael crying out "Daddy" winning the Championship on Fathers day in 1996.

The sad part is that people watch motivational videos like this and decide to start putting in the hard work and then get burnt out. What REALLY makes you respect videos like this is when you've ALREADY been putting in the hard work for a long time and watch videos like this to REMIND yourself why you are making your body and mind go through all of the heavy lifting, conditioning, etc.

[@SwagMuffin567]

true man I tore somethin in my knee before tryouts so watching this gets me emotional bc I see roses comeback. Hard work will Always pay off

[@shinypokeAce]

Advaith hey man. Last year I was a Junior in High School and played JV even though I was better than most of the players who played Varsity. And it was a private school too. I had gone to all of the conditioning/open gyms all summer at the school. But as soon as tryouts, a bunch of kids show up and get played on the Varsity. I have good grades but not enough credits to graduate this year so I am having to stay in my Junior year again. Today I found out that I made the Varsity. It's just a bummer though because once again a bunch of kids show up to the tryouts without coming to any of the after school conditioning and get put on Varsity just because they are seniors. My younger brother didn't get to make the Varsity team because of that even though he is better than most of the kids.

[@SwagMuffin567]

+shinypokeAce damn that sucks but hard work does pay off tho your bro will play varsity one day

[@Mubarakm25]

[@Apxthetic98]

Advaith Bro i feel you. Ever since 9th grade i wanted to play for my school. I worked my ass off after i didn't make it that first year to make the team. Then in 10th grade I had to switch schools because we moved, couldn't afford to pay the bills where we were. The shit part is that we moved in mid November and i had to go through the process of enrollment in school again so i missed the tryouts at my new school. I was so mad i decided to work harder. I had gym that 10th grade year and we played ball everyday. The football coach asked why i didn't play on the team and i told him my situation. He then told me that i definitely need to tryout the next year and he'd put in good word for me since the basketball coaches and staff didn't know me. The next year (11th grade) while still working hard with about 2 months and a half before tryouts, i injured my back. I had a pinched nerve in my spine and multiple hernias. I had surgery and couldn't do any physical activity for 5 months atleast. Obviously i didn't play that year either. Now in my last year of High school, tryout time came but i didn't have time for them. Besides that i was and am out of shape, i was having family problems with both my parents passing. And now here i am. Just trying to figure out what to do. 4 years bro. 4 years of wanting to desperately play on a team and failed every single time. Now i only go to parks and some indoor gyms but its not the same. The competition is non existing. I want to try to join a league over the summer atleast. To get some organized basketball experience that I've always wanted. But yeah bro we're all struggling. When i got injured in 11th grade was the worst. By that time i was friends with most varsity players and they all had high praise for me to the head coach telling him to keep his eye on me come tryout time. There was no way i was not making it that year. I had everything. The speed, the strength, the vertical, the shot, the passing, just everything bro. But shit happens.

I see a lot of comments of kids saying they want to be a star in the NBA. There is 5 things that you need to have. 1) A determination for the game. 2) A love for the game that never burns out. 3) Always beat on your craft. While other people are out partying. Work your ass off in the gym. 4) When something doesnt go your way, such as not making a team, getting cut. Make that your motivation. make your come up greater than the knockdown. 5) Never listen to what people have to say about you. If you know you have a dream and you know you can make it in the NBA. There opinions dont matter. (my username is just a joke.) In all seriousness. Keep your devotion to the game, dont be afraid to fail. and dont listen to negativity.

[@lilverson1333]

This video is such a motivator like I used to watch it back when it came out and lately Ive been ashamed to watch it but now coming back to it I relaized how motivated I get from this video. As a lesson from someone whos trying to walk on to a college team. You have to put in the work everyday and remember that people will try and deter you from greatness because they dont see themselves achieving that greatness. They will laugh and mock just keep on going and stay motivated even if no one sees the dream or the results or understand where this drive you have comes from. You see it and with some prayer and hard work youll get there. Because I believe that I will dont worry about the doubt you hear as long as you dont doubt yourself and if you do remember that hard work will always pay off in one way or another

I'm a hockey player that WAS on the 4th line of my high school hockey team during my junior year. I felt I could do way better. I felt I had assets that were better than alot of people on the team. But no one saw it in me. Everyone said I sucked. Senior year I was a borderline 2nd liner, but played 3rd line on occassions. After that season, I went onto college. I'm in my junior year of college now, and out of everyone that was on my high school hockey team, i am the only one that plays hockey still.. I play for my college and I don't suck from what my teammates have said.. It wasn't easy to get to my position. I had to gain 25lbs, get faster, better at balancing, lower resting heart rate, better eating habits. It was so hard let me tell you. There's days where you feel you will never make it, but you wake up the next day and push yourself in the weight room, on the field doing lateral movements, etc. Let me tell you, don't give up. Most high school players give up on their sport after high school is done cause they can't compete at the college level. I didn't think I could either at points, but there was always belief that I could. Now it's a reality.

[@drsoos5949]

little speech i wrote awhile ago and never showed to anyone, hopefully some can find inspiration in it. ----- "Not today. Maybe later. Another time. I don't feel like it. I can't do it." Humans. We all have the same mindset, the same way of thinking. We always think that when we're opposed to something bigger, greater, and better than us, we cannot win. No matter how hard we try, no matter how many times we try, we can't win. But that makes beating defeat taste so much better. You see, I'm just a 15 year old kid, who loves basketball. A basketball-loving kid who has one goal, one dream in life. To play in the NBA. I never played on my school basketball team because I was always to nervous of what people would think of me. "He's trash. He'll amount to nothing. Give up." They all insulted me in hopes that I would just drop to my knees. In hopes that I would give up. But I took those words, those insults, and I embraced them. I work my ass off. Every day. Never satisfied with what I'm at. There's always room for improvement. Always. You have to learn to use those insults as strength. Aspirations. Things you want to achieve. Because there is never truly a journey if you take one giant leap. There's multiple steps, and roadblocks, and so many things in your way that you'll want to just quit and never get back up. It's not about how many times you fall. It's not about how far you got before you quit. It's about succeeding. You can fall a million times. You get back up a million times, and every single time you get back up, you tell yourself, "I will. I will do this. I will. I will succeed.". Take Kobe Bryant. The kid with a dream. Countless grueling hours in the gym, busting his ass for satisfaction and driving himself to exhaustion. Kobe Bryant is undoubtedly the most inspiring player in the history of the NBA. He has fallen. He has failed. He has tasted defeat. He rose. He kept getting up. He did not let failure overcome him. Kobe Bryant. The Black Mamba. Love him or hate him, he is the definition of greatness. So will you let failure beat you? Will you fall one day and finally have enough? Will you quit? Is everything worth it? Sometimes you have to look inside yourself to find the answer. You are the challenge. You are the one you must overcome. You must beat yourself.

I tore one acl in my left knee right after my football season i worked extremely hard every day to come back to football but i didn't make it in time i was better than ever. i was going to play basketball ( basketball is my favorite sport but i put all my work into football) but one day in gym while playing basketball i attempted to dunk and when i came down my acl in my right leg tore. I was devastated wondering how could this happen to me after all the work ive put in, i sucked it up i worked my ass off for the second year in a row i made it to play my senior year of football. NOBODY BELIEVED IN ME all i had was myself no parents, no friends, nothing but i made it im still working hard i wanna go to college for Football or basketball but ive had a hard couple years. Im not telling people this to make them notice me i just want people to know that anything is possible im still struggling with depression and other things because i feel like the knee surgeries took away my chances of going pro but i will never give up.

I saw this video at 11pm and it motivated me that much, so I wanted to grab a ball and go out on court and practise whole night

[@WhiteGuysGotHops]

It makes me mad whenever I see a motivational basketball video, and all of the background is just dunks. Dunking isn't even that important. All people focus on is just dunks and 3 pointers, the game is about a lot more than that. In the words of uncle drew, "these young bloods forgot all about the fundamentals, basketball always has, and always will be about getting buckets".

[@sukamadi]

you know what? your right on that. You can win an nba final Without dunking. I`m 6 ft 2 or 3 and guess what? I cant dunk.but that does`nt matter to me. I love playing the sport and im going with the basic then the advanced then pro. Not giving up still. oh plus im 13 years old tuning 14 soon

[@lighterblue22]

Getting buckets and playing defense.

[@pccchurch]

White Mamba Don't be dunk hater. Think about it (tapping finger on head). Dunking is another option to score. Options are good. Ppl like having options. We're not in Communist country where there are NO OPTIONS!

[@zelixxxreticl9141]

This video is not about dunking. Your not understanding the point of the video. The point of the video is that these players got injured bad mentally and physically. Not wining a championship is very emotional(LeBron). And wining a championship on Father's Day when his father bet on him(MJ) Recovering from a ACL Knee Injury(Rose) Recovering from a Torn Achillies(Bryant) -Not many people can go through those events and continue playing a sport. But that's only because they don't have the right mind set. Where MJ, LeBron, Rose, and Bryant had the right mind set, and they came back and won MVP's and Championships. If they can go through those events and still play. What's your excuse not to continue doing what you love?

[@WaffleMmann]

White Mamba don't reach young blood

[@GoldenTiger185]

All these people are trashing and saying they work even harder then other people that say they work for a certain amount of hours a day, well if your such a good player why are you trying to discourage other people, it's not like you have anything to worry about if you actually do work even harder than them. And I thought strong people were suppose to lift people up, not put them down. And it isn't about how long you work, it's about how hard you work, how much more you can go even when you are dead tired and running only on heart.
