Kobe proved that athletes can do more than just dribble!

[@smokindatish]

He is greater than the game of basketball.

[@afrocat3974]

relax man....i love kobe but damn son...lol

[@smokindatish]

+DCNC Project (JackBallerZ) hahahah. He's a god man!

[@utkarshkeshari3058]

Man that's cool but still....Jordan was better

[@ianrobinson4200]

Now we have to say 'was' :( RIP Kobe

[@ChiefOttoSo]

@@ianrobinson4200No because he’s still with us

[@conniemeichan8359]

💜💛 What a great mind & tremendous loss in the world 🙏🏼✨🌊 He was a philosopher not just a successful athelete with 5 NBA championships, Olympic gold medalist, author, VC, investor and family man 💗 Rest in peace Kobe & Gianna 💕🕊

[@Chosen1-561]

And Oscar winner 🏆

[@warichards1]

As extraordinarily spectacular and prolific as his game was on the court - Kobe was even 100x more impactful and important off the court. This guy was super sharp and just simply brilliant!! To have witnessed closeup how Kobe came into the NBA, and evolved into what he became is absolutely phenomenal. It hurts so, so bad that we lost him, Gianna and the other family members. Kobe was truly making the world a better place. WHY in the heck did that pilot think he could fly in thick fog that Sunday morning is beyond comprehension!! 🤔😥🙏🏿🎚#Kobe#Gianna #Mamba#Mambasita

KOBE bean BRYANT is one of the greatest player to ever play basketball

[@fdotpharaoh160]

Kobe the Great, philosopher in these strange days. RIP KING

[@JoeJacksonGT3]

So well spoken. He has mastered multiple crafts.

[@toniwills4220]

Looking sharp Mr Bryant. It’s always nice to see a clean cut looking man, no raggedy messy hair, no grills, just well groomed. He is so easy on the eyes and ears, you could listen to all his interviews without getting bored. Sounds so intellectual and brilliant. Very well spoken and a great sounding masculine voice.

[@XlogicXX]

So intelligent. More interviews please.

[@martyca6]

😭

[@achilles3349]

[@nine3seven]

Kobe the smartest basketball player to ever live @ me

[@la3465]

KOBE BRYANT is intelligent

[@titilayosaraheguridu4839]

L A Super intelligent

[@ArmandoKozomara]

it's good to see kobe be more than just a basketball player. he's not just sitting back and not doing anything after retiring..even though he deserves to just do nothing with what he has accomplished in his life. great speaker, intelligent and creative. great role model

[@lookalilcloser509]

A very smart genuine guy..super sharp! RIP Kobe 💜💜💜

[@RayfilWong]

Kobe has been a branding machine that makes him a global business man.

[@dexterbitar7899]

More than a basketball player.. a speaker a businessman producer writer an actor a rapper etc.... amazng kobe brayant.... the one

[@FunkNatives]

Dope interview, can't wait to hear Kobe speak when he gets inducted into the HOF.

[@elizabethtimothy4776]

@Faith H Right?! It hurts so bad!

[@rescue4lifeAB]

This comment is so sad.

[@ArmandoKozomara]

This reality is for fucked up 💔💔🐍

[@pierrenc]

[@FiteMePodcast]

I dont know this guy but he is asking some amazing questions!

[@TheJRo]

Agreed- I just became a fan of the interviewer

[@kdhard96]

He's a very meticulous individual

[@possumslim]

Great interview. So interesting to get inside the mind of such a driven artist. Looking forward to his next move...

[@martyca6]

😭

[@yzwme586]

Had to pause this to watch his last game again. Fucking legend.

[@simp1eone]

Dear God let me meet smart intelligent men like Kobe or Nipsey. I don't even care if they are not a celebrity or have a college degree (as neither of them did yet billion times smarter than those who did) I just want to meet intellectually sound men who are very smart and very intuned..Ones I can learn from . These kind of men are so hard to find.

[@teokurtaran]

hey, what’s your insta? would love to talk about philosophy mindset etc

[@elmids8128]

Smartest NBA player.

[@FreeAgent797]

Not a Kobe fan, but I can honestly say the nba is not the same without him. There is no one in the game today quite like Kobe

[@honesttomato4845]

Russel Westbrook

[@FreeAgent797]

Milz 2truth There are similarities. But like I said, Not quite like him.

[@garyodriscoll7988]

Agreed, not a hope will I watch as many games this year as I did last year! Just not the same!

[@HandsomeHustler]

kyrie & zach lavine got kobe like game

[@garyodriscoll7988]

hahahahaha...wait, are you serious?

[@ArmandoKozomara]

this is a fantastic interview. great job Lee and Kobe!

[@jonneye]

What a guy.

[@reputablehype]

Pharrell said his ideas come in the shower too. I think the isolation coupled with the rhythmic white noise truly does allow you to explore the mind.

[@sybil4884]

He is the greatest .

[@speedyyang5614]

very glad to hear that.

[@thebrian8]

even the fly was picking Kobe's brain

[@oldnbaschool]

bruh....mamba mentality all the way.

[@YungJhay22]

😂😂😂

[@halfpup]

lmao

[@reynaldovalenzuela8483]

lmao!!!

[@jaderedemmartin]

when I saw the fly I quickly scroll down to like the first "fly comment" I see. =))

[@bettyjeanstokes360]

Kobe, you're one in millions, the most gifted individual that I know. It's a blessing to get to see you and know that you're as happy as you were when you were playing basketball. It's truly a blessing, Kobe, and thank God for your parents, your beautiful wife Vanessa, and your Little Princesses, you're a blessing to everyone who knows you and we're thankful that you found something else that you're as passionate about as you were about basketball. Truly, a blessing, amazing in all you do. God bless you!

[@martinstubbs7838]

Kobe was a special individual full of life and showcase it in grand ways. An Individual who has not shy away of fame and is bold to share his stories and idealogies .

Basketball runs in his veins,he’s insane with baseball ⚾️

[@natrullan1]

It's so weird listening to him on how much he doesn't think about basketball anymore.. This is definitely a different mamba now...

[@aacc2216]

he's snakeskin

[@balawalsohail9373]

Best Interview Ever!

[@juwitasujatmikoafandi1745]

Memory Kobe Bryant Keynote conversation - Veriety / Sport illustrated - sport Summit

[@JosephMcCray]

I think Kobe needs to look toward the people involved in the 30 for 30 ESPN stories. I think whoever is putting those together is exactly who Kobe should be looking for.

[@MuhCawk]

AGREED! i've never lost interest in a 30 for 30. Len Bias one was most powerful

[@JosephMcCray]

Exactly....such good sports storytelling.

Kobe > Lebron

[@PresidentGuevara]

Dumb Dumber I'm a big Kobe fan more than a LeBron fan but being a fan of both statistically LeBron is a far better player.

[@dumbdumber7203]

***** Statistically i dont give a shit. Kobe was better and more fun to watch.

[@AJRAOfficial]

Dumb Dumber Facts!!!!!

[@joscaca]

Anonymous - LOL You think everything is basketball is translated to points, rebounds, steals and those jokes of PER and +\-? Asked anyone who played both and they will tell you whose the better player? What is LeBron’s free throw shooting percentage again? LeBronze, LeHelp, LeConserveEnergy Lol 😂

Nice to see a brother dressed to the T!And not looking like some wanta be rap star thug!Keep that business mind Kobe, teach the young generation how a real man does it!

[@MrPlatano11]

This is such an ignorant comment, Kobe has been in the NBA, for 20 years; why compare to some rapper.

[@spencercharlotte297]

Kobe growing increasingly frustrated with the questions

The body's limit at sports is @ 37. That's the standard.
