Kobe Bryant words: “when the end comes, I’m fine with that”He finished his work and gave it all.RIP

[@crystalslayer1]

Omegaconnects wow it’s funny how you mentioned that I guess that what explains this incredible humbleness he had. To describe Kobe in one word Even though to me would be difficult but I would choose GREATNESS , but off the court never once did he display that he was greater than anyone else, And to be that great and that humble is just amazing. RIP KOBE with your little princess.

[@rhcpguitarar]

What player other than Jordan did you ever see this type of shit for? Shaq? Miller? Barkley? Nah man. Kobe Bryant is a living legend and one of the greatest of all time. When the dudes you playing against literally grew up watching you and copying you. you KNOW you're great. Thank you Kobe.

[@joemartinez4469]

U said it best👌

[@fredcorona1022]

totally agree

[@karlylove9791]

+Professor Hubert J. Farnsworth and he's not universally hated for being an egomaniac, degenerate gambler like Michael Jordan. It's as fun to watch Michael Jordan fail miserably as a team owner as it is to watch the games.

[@recomix5006]

Kobe is a basketballer which inspired all the world with his skills.He is a great person and a great player.Thank you for everything that you have done for basketball.

[@voguishmakeup]

I’m just glad he got to feel ppl loved him before his passing most never bare witness to it they definitely gave him his roses while he was alive !!!

[@iArtFilms]

Those that disliked this video are just mad at themselves/must hate their life, every arena sending Kobe off with sold out crowds/cheering for his legacy, wake up. If you love the game you love guys like MJ and KOBE.

[@abualzuaree]

LeBron fanatics hate Kobe, Kobe fanatics hate LeBron, basketball fans love both.

[@ph0enixazghost]

+Rich Homie Tom I'm a basketball fan and I don't like LeBron, but I respect his skill and talent.

[@swifitly-6149]

+phOeNIX_AzGhost why cause he so cocky? Like the I'm the best player in the world speech?

[@oluwaseyia8548]

I knew he was a hell of a player-A superstar at that however to cry profusely for a week straight because of his demise is still unbelievable. I never knew I can be touched by his passing . Kobe Forever!

[@jordanher2354]

Ever watch someone so good its disgusting? Definition of Kobe

[@gedepasek590]

It's emotional moment for me who grow up watch him play and inspired by him to play basketball 😭😭😭

[@dankbartolo6362]

Curry will never be as good as Kobe. Kobe knew how to win, he was clutch, he was a warrior. He got right up , even if he broke a leg. He kept fighting if his team was down by 30. Kobe was fierce, he streamed right past all the defenders, right to the rim. Kobe was a living legend. And will stay to be one of the best players of all time. He could do anything. ANYTHING.

[@OgagSoriano]

I wish you a happy retirement filled with fun and happiness. "Kobe Bryant 1996-2016"

[@mcsweeney29]

That crowd's still bitter about his 81.

[@sethmorgan833]

mcsweeney29 Well maybe if they team wasn't so shitty he would have spared them and only dropped 50-60. But I don't blame him for dropping 81 he should have dropped 101 because Toronto was and will always be one shitty as team that can't get right even when they have the pieces around them to succeed. They play in the weakest conference in all professional sports and they can't get passed a B+ Cavs team with LeBron James on it. Smh.

[@havok5616]

lol u were saying

[@hasanal-habbobi4018]

Seth Morgan you're an idiot. If raptors were shitty then they wouldn't have been leading most of the game by a lot. Kobe just hogged the ball and charged down the middle and no matter how they defended he would always get a foul call. And Without lebron the no one would even know who the cavs are. Its only against lebron they can't make it. But even then they are close.. Loosing only by a single basket. If Toronto was so shitty then they would never even make the playoffs in the first place. So shut the hell up. The only thing that's shitty is your pathetic toxic attitude.

[@shaokhan4421]

[@dabsavage3163]

This makes me smile. His death is tragic but he lived his days like his last and that gives so much peace. RIP Kobe!

[@marcusreynolds8884]

Being 27 years old I grew up on Kobe, being my fav player and being there for every championship especially the last 2. To see Kobe Not go out competing for a championship is I think the saddest part for a Kobe fan if he had a shot at winning I don't think it will be this sad. Kobe Bean Bryant G.O.A.T
