Whenever Kobe boys are on a podcast… Kobe stories are coming 🔥 I’m down for that 24/7

[@user-en8zq2uv4y]

Rip to the mamba ❤

[@celticsnation6740]

Pure facts RIP to bean bryant

I'm down for it 24/8

[@quick2bud]

@@iBall24-7 I see you! Someone gotta make a 24 hour mix of Kobe stories in honor of the Mamba.

[@nbarealtalker]

The fact that Kobe had such profound respect for AI despite their utterly opposing lifestyles is the living proof of the type of warrior AI was.

[@joemosley4218]

Kobe even said something along the lines of “we’re very fortunate AI isn’t 6’5.” Kobe was probably grateful AI was partying instead of in the gym all night. Imagine if AI had the same drive...but respect to both and Mamba always my GOAT

[@papadre70]

Kobe and Allen Iverson both Philadelphia at Heart ❤️. Kobe West Philly born and Allen balled out in South Philly

[@PJB71064]

YO! That SITUATION WAS SERIOUSLY PERSONAL WITH THE FAMILY, THE HOOD, THE FAN BOYS AND THE OLD HEADS IN THE GAME AND IN THE COMMUNITIES OF PHILADELPHIA, PENNSYLVANIA. ESPECIALLY GERMANTOWN! BECAUSE "KOBE BEAN" WAS HOMEGROWN AND CRAZY.LIKE ALOT OF "PUBLICLY PRIDEFUL" BALLERS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD ARE. We could HONESTLY IDENTIFY WITH HIS"MENTALITY". BUT! IT'S THAT "MENTALITY" THAT AWARDED SO MUCH "RESPECT" FOR AI. WHEN AI CAME TO PHILADELPHIA....? It was like ROCKY'S STORY ALL OVER AGAIN. "THE UNDERDOG! YO! IT'S WAS "STRAIGHT ALL DUBS"!

[@SuccessfulStudio.]

I can listen to kobe stories all day dude a legend

[@justinwilson1754]

Kobe autographing everybody's memorabilia personally to them made me drop a tear. RIP Bean.

[@nylesfrench3568]

Kobe Changing the Atmosphere is a testament of his Legend and Greatness. He was hard on the Youngsters because he literally came in as a kid. He didn't get much run , did not start obviously in the beginning of his career.

[@OnnaMissionBoxing]

Kobe With The Cup Is Hilarious 🤣🤣🤣

[@ac1200]

Lou Will so dope, can just talk and he’s smart.

[@thrill_hill]

A.I is my all time favorite player but that last game where Kobe dropped 60 was the most impactful moment for me as a sports fan.

[@KobieeBryant]

How did you feel when IVERSON dropped 27 in first half then Kobe defended em all second half and he ended up with at end of game 27 And it was in Philly how did u feel about that game sir

[@diegobromfield]

​@@KobieeBryant😂 good question

[@KobieeBryant]

[@magicboiii8895]

​@@KobieeBryantIverson dumped 50 on Kobe damn near every time they played Iverson avg more Kobe just had better cast you not quieting a real Iverson fan if only Iverson had shaq

[@thrill_hill]

@@KobieeBryant lol I feel like 1. AI still outscored Kobe in that game 2. As good of defense Kobe played he had SHAQ to funnel him into the paint towards 3. Lakers still only won by 3 in that game

[@Xdivus1]

I love hearing these stories. Wish I could’ve heard Kobe’s brain get picked like this on podcasts more before we lost him

[@ImEmilyThorne]

He was a guest at Matt Barnes and Steven Jackson’s podcast just few months before he passed away.

[@baconeggcheesepodcast9390]

Yeah it would have been a interesting interview

[@doranroberts4895]

@@ImEmilyThornehe also got a good interview with knuckle heads as well

[@nylesfrench3568]

Kobe's last Game, scoring 60 Points in a come from behind game, At Home, with him leading the way was Almost Unbelievable. It was an honor to watch, miraculous even. I love to see and hear the love Kobe gets from his peers, and the generation of greats who looked up to him. Kobe played two generations and only the Undefeated "Father Time" and his injuries beat him.

[@user-cs1pi8zg1n]

He took 50 shots against a weak Utah team with nothing to play for. They barely played defense against him

[@R-EVLMNKY]

He’s way of a different kind, also a real intelligent one. Hearing these stories from all these players proves how special he is… 👌 Kobe “The Mamba” Bryant Forever 🙌 …..My GOAT.

[@jasonnguyen9410]

Lou Williams and Jamal Crawford were by far my favorite NBA players who even though they weren't all stars but were so much fun to watch during there career as great 6th man coming off the bench. Thank you P and the crew for this podcast from Lou!

[@N54B30BMW]

What I like about this Podcast ist that they make me smile. You hear these stories and take in the mood and I can't stop smiling. Thanks guys!

Enjoyed this Lou Will interview. He is definately worthy of a HOF induction!

[@IronMan_thno]

Iverson is that 1 of a kind talent. Goat indeed

[@MoralesCorner]

The story of him signing stuff for all his teammates, people from the organisation and their family and friends right after his last game is crazy to me. For someone who has been criticised for being selfish or egotistical, that goes to show that's only when it comes to compete and prepare. Most people in his position won't take the effort to have a nice gesture with everyone. It's cool to think things like that probably made him feel loved and appreciated too. And you know a lot of that stuff went on eBay right away 😂

[@YoungAnthonyThePointINC]

Allen Iverson G.O.A.T no matter what ya wanna say he dominated a era!!

[@BonafideJas]

Lou Will is a real one 💯

[@gitpusher2400]

Kinda crazy how somebody ELSE getting traded can affect your career so dramatically. AI merely joined Lou’s team and Lou became “sixth man for life” after that

[@clutchcity25]

He played with Harden and Kawhi as well, Lou has played with some KILLERS.

Kobes Goat case was always more believable and organic than Lebrons case could ever be.

[@SupaHans04]

Lebron always on your mind kobe fans 🤣 , lebron has been playing at the top for 21 years no other player has done that so stop lying to yourself.
