Kobe Bryant 2010 Playoffs COMPLETE Highlights | 💍x5 🐐

[@jonathanwilliams0824]

Let's not forget the fact that Kobe won his 5th, with 9 fingers and lowkey one leg!!!!! This man's resiliency is off the charts!!!!! 💜💛💜💛💜💛🏀🏀🏀🏀🐍🐍🐍🐍🐍

[@andystarkiller7492]

The only player who matched his championship numbers was Tim Duncan (5-1). Tim vs Kobe was a hell of a duel man ! Detroit and Boston were the only teams who beat him in the playoffs like the way they did in the 1980s (1984 and 1989). Both cities were their huckleberry (a match for the Lakers historically).

[@MrBhukka]

I saw most of the laker games live on tv during the Kobe gasol era and the western conference had crazy good deep teams. Lakers had a good starting 5 but a weak bench in comparison and the lakers would frequently be up 10-20 points and lose it quickly when the bench came on. The fact that Kobe won back to back with this team in this period shows just how good Kobe was. He’s the most skilled and toughest player I’ve ever seen.

@@Spider-Complexion The Colorado case made the media and league ignore Kobe’s greatness. But 08-10 wasn’t expected from anyone including Shaq so those years put every Kobe hater on hush mode. Which is why nowadays people try to act like those years ain’t happen. Or lie and say Pau was basically the next Shaq and Carried Kobe.

And 2010 WCF GAME 6 VS SUNS with so many CLUTCH SHOTS. AND ALL THAT WITH BROKEN INDEX FINGER ON SHOOTING HAND and with Pau Gasol as only 20/10 guy and All star. Unlike Lebron and Kd and Harden who jump ship from teams to teams and gettiing superstar after superstar. That is why i respect more guys like Giannis, Jokić, Buttler, and before Dirk Nowitzki.

The 2008-2010 Lakers were similarly structured like the 96-98 Chicago Bulls. Kobe took aspects of what Michael and Phil did in Chicago and brought it to L.A. That's why these Lakers teams were so good and entertaining during those years.

[@koolkai4299]

Those Bulls teams didn't have 2 7 footers in the paint, and a 6'10 forward who could handle the ball post up and shoot. That being said Kobe like to operate from the same areas that MJ operated from during their championship runs and the system they ran was the Triangle offense. So those would be the similarities.@@TheUnpopularPerspective

[@TheUnpopularPerspective]

@@koolkai4299 Brother please stop it. Luc Longley was 7'2 and Bill Wennington is 7'0. You pair those guys with Dennis Rodman at PF and you have defensive length and size down low similar to the Lakers. Scottie Pippen was a 6'8 Forward that could handle the ball, score, and play defense at will. Then they had 6'11 forward Toni Kukoc who could stretch the floor. Not to mention a 6'6 defensive Ron harper at Point Guard in comparison to the Lakers smaller Derrick Fisher. So, brother please cut the bullshit. The Bulls had length on the perimeter and the paint.
