[@jacobfrench777]

jalencashmoney 00 man, I feel you on this.. use to watch this video before high school games years ago. Never thought this would be the reason i’d come back to appreciate it again. RIP KOBE BEAN BRYANT.

Fav video. Been looking for this.

[@ohhhyeahhh1174]

I use to watch this video every time i use to be in the gym shooting baskets shooting 1000 shots a day. Sweating thinking if they did this so can i. So everything time i use to play on the streets or in open gyms i use to be ready to take on anyone.

[@mizztree81]

Took me twenty years but I finally respect Kobe Bryant-- not because I doubted his talent-- I just didn't want to acknowledge that his greatness was the closest to MJs than any other player I've seen. I acknowledge it now. #salute

[@hihihihihello]

Same, grew up in chicago watched him win 6, literally the first game i saw kobe in, i think some 97'game, well ot wasnt even a game it was like some sport channel showing a clip of kobe, i was paranoid of kobe right then, kobe is insane, kobe and michael are the 2 best players to ever play basketball. It's was so obvious to me back then thinking about it now, and its crazy to see what hes done, hes done amazing great things and all things considered, era's,stats,teams,conferences,play off and finals competition of the time, individual accolades, all of that stuff- kobe and mj are on the same level in my book now. Same guy.

People have their own opinions, kobe IS and HAS been the next michael jordan. If jordan is the greatest player to ever play and kobe is the next jordan, than kobe is in the the top 5 of greatest basketball players ever.

[@cyberbron2077]

GoinHam kobe is not better than magic johnson, larry bird, shaquille oneal, kareem, or lebron so no he aint top 5 and Im talking just as basketball players, forget all the accolades and everything and youll see that those guys are just better than kobe in many ways.

Kobe most skilled player ever and Jordan greatest all round player ever no question

[@boomer3207]

lebron beats jordan in all around tbh

[@Abhiram-nb8yk]

@@boomer3207 LMAO NO

[@vincespell]

Kobe was not the most skilled player. You can't be the most skilled if you borrow your skill set from someone else. Jordan's fadeaway, Jordan in the low post, Jordan's stop and pop, Jordan going to the hole, Jordan's reverse layup and Jordan's midrange game were all borrowed by Kobe and put into his game. Jordan is far more skilled than Kobe. I don't know where people get that from or if it's because they heard someone else say it but on this planet on this earth there is no way you could ever prove that Kobe's skill level could surpass Jordan's especially when Kobe blueprinted Michael's game!

[@joshuapaige5728]

Damn I guess this is the last time I'll watch this video while Kobe is still in the league. As I kid I used to hate kobe but now that I'm grown, he's not only my favorite player but the greatest of all time in my eyes. I only say that because I didn't grow up watching Jordan because I was born in 96 so I don't wanna hear anyone tell me why Jordan is better. Knowing that this is kobe's last season, I know that my childhood is completely over. This league will never be the same without you Kobe #legend

[@genericallyaccepted]

The differences between Michael and Kobe are there, but they're on the same level in terms of individual ability - they are the two greatest. To those who know, you can't go wrong with either. You didn't ask for it, but I'll tell you anyway lol. What sets Michael apart from Kobe is his athleticism - he's faster. Being faster allowed him to be a better defender and get to the rim easier. He could also jump higher and farther, too. Kobe has a good two-foot jump but his one-foot jump has nothing on MJ's. I would say they had the same mentality, Kobe might be a little more stubborn, but you could say his teammates didn't fight back enough. Their level of confidence is beyond any other athlete to ever play any sport But where Kobe excels is basically everything else - he has a better post game, better footwork, a better handle and even though the fg% will suggest otherwise, he also has a better shot.

[@monojuice]

+Tommy Cruz I agree with you 100% and kobe leaving will be the end of my childhood

[@ohhhyeahhh1174]

+Tommy Cruz you forgot to mention kobe has a longer range shot then mj. But you are right. I was born in 78 and i think those two are pretty much equal but yes mj was abit faster and abit more athletic and of course his hands where massive. But other then that the same sucks that Kobe had to play in a era that was getting softer and softer. Him being very demanding messed up kobes possible chance for him to win 1 more title. But he couldn't be nicer and that's what happened.

[@melvinstapleton6133]

Tommy Cruz I’m late but KOBE has no where near as good Post game as MJ. His turn around fade-away was his Patented shot. Phil Jackson said was the best low post player ever.

This guy makes dope videos for over a decade

[@phillip5811]

Kobe and Michael are pretty even

[@ohhhyeahhh1174]

to be honest and this is just me in my opinion. kobe and micheal had the best skills ever in nba history. but this is where it ends. Michael had the biggest hands for a 2 guard. he was able to palm the ball and make razzle dazzle passes and had a better release to his shot then kobe so the percentages where higher for Michael to make a bucket then kobe because he had smaller hands. now offensively kobe was better am not talking percentage wise and talking about how deep and difficult the shots went in. kobe was way better then Michael. if they go in there primes head to head it would be a toss up to be honest with. kobe in his prime was unstoppable every shot he took went in from 40 and still went in. with double triple teams. but if I would choose one it would be mike just because of the big hands that he has.

[@fatboyRAY24]

well said

[@ohhhyeahhh1174]

fatboyRAY24 am just saying the truth if kobe ever had mjs hands hands down he would of been twice as better as mj. But since he doesn't he won't ever catch up to mike. But he has a wonderful career 7 times to the NBA finals and 5 chips I say well done.

[@fatboyRAY24]

Alfredo Pacheco well done indeed!

[@fatboyRAY24]

Blueblur22 Mj's hands and athleticism did play a big roll in is shooting percentage, just ask phil jackson. Nobody "Likes" to take contested shots, but those were the only options available for kobe since his game was patented almost exactly off of MJ's. The only thing he was lacking was athleticism....and bigger hands.

[@ohhhyeahhh1174]

+Blueblur22 Everyone knows that if you had bigger hands you could make more thing gs with ball fakes creating space and had a softer release and had a better chance of making impossible layups because your palming the ball and grabbing it. unlike kobe he couldn't palm the ball so he had to relied on skill only. that's why his footwork was better then mjs. trust even Phil Jackson has said that in the comparison of both. they are the same in competitive nature but where it ends with them is the Mits mj had. go look at a Phil Jackson comparison on kobe and mike and he coached both of them.

[@russell9411]

Lls kobe do wat mj do and his shot and ball handling is better end of discussion

[@SoveTmac]

Here ia one player who was better than Kobe, and closer to MJ- Tracy McGrady a.k.a T Mac

[@Amjbmcg]

Kobe is not a top 10 of the post Jordan era (LeBron, Duncan, Shaq, KG, Wade, Kidd, Dirk, Chris Paul, Dwight, KD and maybe others > Kobe) .. And not a top 50 player of all time. Just the luckiest player of all time. When you shoot 38% for your career in game 7's vs shit teams .. you are shit Kobe. I don't know if he's in the top 100 to ever play the game. The greatest luck of all time for sure, and STILL can't do and achieve what others have.

[@wrestling1284]

its funny how kobe has more rings then all the people you named one does not simply score 81 points in a game

[@Amjbmcg]

Anime/nbatv Rings? Hahahaha Horry . Kobe? D Fish is as good as Kobe? hahahah .. 81 points against the Raptors? Hahaha Darren Collison could do that if he wanted to shot jack over 50 shots (Yes 50 shots including the one's he got fouled on).

[@wrestling1284]

***** collison now way i want to see him score 5 points but i see your point on the rings part kobe is top ten all time great magic johnson said he is the greatest laker in history kobe career field goal is19 shots while mj is 23

Dwight? Seriously? DWIGHT?!?!? Oh man you have GOT to be kidding me. Could you please give me a reason why Dwight is better than Kobe? Enlighten us please!

People always talk about how much pressure was on Lebron when he came into the league.. but no one talks about the pressure that Kobe was under and STILL is. He was literally thought to be the next MJ and though he may not reach the hights that Michael did he will undoubtedly be considered the second best SG of all time. Hes done pretty well for himself considering the shoes of who he was trying to fill.

There are some amazing things that Kobe's done in his career, like the 81 pt game, the 60 in three quarters, the 12 threes, the stretch of assists games, the Denver game, the two Suns games in the playoffs and he is in the discussion for top 3 shooting guards in history. But to have him hop Wilt, who has more records still, or a Kareem, or Magic- the best at his position all time? Ditto for Larry-best SF?Or Hakeem?Shaq?Oscar? I don't know,man.

Only when you're rooting for a team. When trying to catergorize an all-time great, it all matters, anything from general statistics, achievements and awards, to clutch moments in season and postseason. Rings are just a part of it. Sometimes management doesn't build around great players the way a franchise should. Thanks for adding alot to the debate.
