KOBE FOREVER - Legendary Mamba Mentality Stories

[@ericmathis3746]

I am a die hard Suns fan.. i remember when my Suns were the two seed playing the 7 seed Lakers in 2006.. everyone was picking the Suns to win in four or five... I remember telling everyone that would listen..... "but they have Kobe Bryant!".. to most, including all the sports analysts, it didn't matter, the Suns were so much better as a team.. but I knew better. Kobe Bryant at that time was the most dangerous player in the NBA.. going into that series, I was terrified. I thought that the Suns could be the first two seed to lose to a seven seed in decades. And I was right almost, Kobe Bryant darn near won that series all by himself, took the Suns to 7 games! Kobe Bryant was the second most clutch player (Jordan being first) I've ever witnessed with my eyes. In my humble opinion, he is the second greatest basketball player in history. I know there is a Jordan vs LeBron debate.. but I agree with Shaquille O'Neal and Allen Iverson, y'all just going to pass Kobe Up!?! If I wanted to win a game 7 with all the chips on the line, I take Kobe over LeBron 10 out of 10 times. Kobe Bryant is an assassin... Not only is he the second greatest player that ever lived, but I don't think it's even close. LeBron James is definitely top five, but he ain't no Kobe.. as a Suns fan, I never once feared LeBron James like I did Kobe Bryant.

[@keelsmac01]

I remember that series…great times. It was a pleasure to watch him every night. BBall not the same.

[@michaelkirk4097]

Can't believe its been 2 years since his death one of the two greatest players of all time

[@mauricedavis1740]

this was the first time a death from a person I didn’t know personally really messed me up. I had friends, family, and even ex girlfriends reaching out to me to make sure i was ok when they got the news because they knew how much Kobe meant to me. Kobe Bryant not only inspired me to have a mentality to be the best in whatever i do, he also inspired me to be the best father in the world. About a year ago I accepted the fact that I’ll never be able to get over that he’s no longer with us. Rest In Peace Kobe Bryant and your beautiful daughter..

[@crossovatv]

Never forget!! Mamba forever and ever and ever!!!!

[@allensmith9879]

Watching Kobe growing up was magical, it was akin to watching an epic Disney trilogy saga watching his 3peat at such a young raw age. We literally grew up with him Kobe will always be my favorite he made my childhood amazing I can't imagine the NBA at those times without Kobe.

Kobe bryant is always be my favourite player of all time only one player no second no other player and that's KOBE BRYANT I grew up watching him and the only team I watch when there playing another team it's hard to watch a full lakers game after he retired I stop watching the game in my head he was my favourite favourite player and I didn't have that exciting feeling anymore to watch the game Kobe retired so that's it I didn't want to watch the game till this day 2023 I started watching lebron lakers now on the playoff and it's only highlights of the game cause it's really hard I get emotional and start tearing up LAKERS TO will always be KOBE BRYANT TEAM I miss him so much I go back and watch KOBE old games again and my heart gets heavy and painful I cried watching and cried so hard it hurts and will never be another KOBE BRYANT he's my IDOL when it comes to basketball I watch him all the way from Auckland new Zealand 😢😢😢 REST IN PEAICE KOBE BRYANT THE GOAT IN MY Eyes number #1 pass presents player to me the only and only THE BLACK MAMBA the KILLER ASSASSIN 😢😢I'm going to visit KOBE BRYANT GRAVE in one day of my life and it's a promise

I'm lucky enough to see both Jordan and Kobe. Trust Jordan and Kobe are by far the 2 goats. The only 2 basketball gods ever.

[@chloelittle7036]

I’ve never had someone who I didn’t know personally affect my life so much. The days the news broke I was driving home from work and I had to pull over and stop for idek how long just to process it. To this day the only death of a person I didn’t know that actually broke me down, I was bawling like a baby. Kobe meant so much to all of us fans, and any of his personal circle. There are still days I’m expecting to see his face on sports tv or hear his voice as a guest commentator at a lakers game. Man I fucking miss Kobe
