Watching him score 60 in his last game was one of the most emotional basketball games I’ve ever watched. It was truly a fitting ending.

[@shanejones-lv4yl]

With the game winner… you couldn’t make it up. I cried too lol. That guy was my idol growing up.

[@jaywbell2002]

2 mins in and this is already better than 95% of ESPN documentaries they need to hire you and out this on TV

[@fortynights1513]

And most of that top 5% wouldn’t have been made in the last 10-15 years in all likelihood.

This is 100% better than any ESPN documentary. But TV is dead, and dead for good reason. All of those shows are terrible. Let it die. Real content is online now and belongs online going forward. Screw all of the big telecom companies and their woke agendas.

[@LeighMet]

I don't know about 95 percent but its were good.

[@imyugimuto]

"After a somewhat pedestrian 26 points in the first half." 💀That's how insane that game was.

[@LoganNagol]

When Kobe retired I remember being exited because I knew his passion for basketball and being an ambassador of the game was unlike anyone we had ever seen. Like I knew as fans it meant we would be getting more Kobe in the media and in other projects than ever before. Which we did for a bit. Real shame we never got to really see that part of his career play out

[@alanlee67]

One of the most intelligent people to ever retire from the nba.

[@mattwonders5566]

Kobe’s 12-13 season is SEVERELY underrated just look who’s on the court when he’s playing, lakers really dropped the ball when it came to surrounding him with talent towards the end. Could attribute that to drafting and how bad it was pre Jesse buss

[@diegochavez6203]

I truly believe he would have dragged that team to the chip Kobe was unstoppable after all star break was like 34-8-8 on 55/40/90

[@CrazyxEnigma]

One of Kobe's best seasons. At 34 he looked like he could play till 40 like Kareem and then the injury happened...

[@613trapman5]

“He was supposed to become an elder statesman with a grey beard”…that shit hurt

[@illicitburn9386]

Thats whats so sad about his death was that his life was beginning to blossom. He had so much to give back to the world and it was taken from us. I still say mamba time when i need to get through tough times. Love yall be safe and dont squander your chance at life

[@randomperson2540]

I already saw both, but gosh, I just love Kobe and your content. I can't help but watch

[@hughtaylor1129]

Same I have to rewatch it

[@MambaMonkeyOG]

Kobe isn't the best and perfect player as we can notice in this documentary, but he is the one that is more willing to improve as a person and as an athlete, the evolution of his game is beautiful

[@donavonhoward114]

Kobe was as great as it get's as a player. Nobody can compare to him other than MJ.

[@CCEkeke]

Fantastic supercut! Another difference in Kobe during the 07-08 season, he finally started hanging out with his teammates off the court and building relationships with them. That no doubt helped the team's chemistry.

[@cjvaye99]

that's something ppl forget. Kobes change in his game and decision to actively build relationships with his teammates made all the difference. of course everyone remembers the finals run but what's often forget is Kobe had basically the same roster from the year prior (plus Derek Fisher) as one of the top seeds in the west before the Pau trade even happened. think about how insane that is. you can also tell it wasn't just for show in the interview after the Pau trade when the media wanted to hear Kobe's reaction he actually says the first thing he thought of was his guys Kwame and Javaris and said he wished them the best bc he sort of became a mentor for them.

[@seamylife6362]

Damn 60 points his last game. Knowing what he could do but its time to hang it up.

[@kobeelmallah1394]

52:51 I will never forget, i was a celtics fan as a boy, but that moment in my eyes cemented my respect/love for Kobe. R.I.P. Mamba

[@HorizonOfHope]

That was such an insane series. Save for maybe game 6, the whole series was so tense.

[@earningzekrom4173]

RIP legend

I watched Kobe's last game in Houston. He had 27 and shot pretty well. It was his first good game of the season and it's one of my favorite basketball memories

I can’t thank you enough for this. Dude you put this together perfectly. Thank you so much for doing this because things like this about Kobe need to be out there. ESPN in Fox Sports will never do it so thank you. He was my all-time favorite athlete, and the day he died ripped me in half. Rest In Peace Kobe 🙏

[@buttersdk]

You have truely made the greatest tribute documentary on KZbin, such fantastic work! Great way to honour the legend of Kobe Bryant. 3 years after his death and not a day passes by where I dont think of Kobe and let his willpower, determination and work ethic inspire me to do greater in my craft. One of Kobe’s greatest qoutes ever: “The most important thing is to try and inspire people so that they can be great in whatever they want to do” That is the true essence of Kobe Bryant and his impact and importance. Thank you now and always Kobe Bean Bryant ❤

[@fortynights1513]

Excellent video Clayton! As for Kobe. Say what you want about all time rankings, but most of us could probably agree that he had a darn good career for himself. One oddly overlooked series on his part: In 2001’s second round vs the Kings, Kobe Bryant averaged 35 points per game on 58.8% true shooting. He averaged a point and a half more per game than Shaq on a tenth of a percent worse true shooting. And for that matter he got nine rebounds per game too, so nearly averaging a double double with 35 points. I don’t know how many times someone’s averaged 35 in a playoff series, but I’d say it’s an impressive series, and I don’t see anyone bringing that up. I am in the camp that Shaq was definitely the best player on the Millennium Lakers, but if there was a series where Kobe may have been even better, this could have been it.

Would you consider making a video on dirk? Maybe international players and their rise into the NBA?

[@kaksmirknight5318]

Only wrong thing you said, is that Achilles year that was not a super team at all. Plus it wasn't Shaq who clearly the best player in the 3 peat, Shaq averages would only go up becaue he will play only in the finals,but for the WC playoffs in 01-04 it was all Kobe. You have to get that right. Like in 01 alone. SHAQ WAS SLOWED down in west playoffs specially in Road games in kings and San antonio, kobe continued to attack those teams. Yet in game 1 of the finals pjax, went back to Shaq that's why they loss. In games 2-4 they got more production from Kobe and they swept those 4 games. 02 it's clear thay year Lakeshow got 2 Apex shaq and Kobe, which the media doesn't want to accept in 2000-2001 season. 03, it was kobe who really carried the Lakeshow in reg season. In playoffs kobe was already the Alpha but looks like Shaq was not happy with it 04 wasn't a super team again. Malone was 40 GP was not playing as an allstar since 03.
