One of the most unapologetic, skilled, and lethal hoopers to ever play.

[@Jeyybronem]

Kobe is truly a legend.

[@jorgedelgado8505]

Yessir

[@joakimbaba5630]

Rip

[@eaglsfan92]

Back when they thought the euro was a walk lol

[@PassItToMe360]

Kobe's fadeaway jumpers were a PROBLEM, I'd even go as far as sayin he has best fadeaway form in NBA history!

[@anthonyfuentes7087]

Strictly Facts better than dirk?

[@anthonyfuentes7087]

Even Larry bird come cuh it's up there he's like a mixture of mj and when he got older he threw a lil dirk in it

[@jaydover9311]

I would personally say Mj, Kobe, then Melo..

[@patrickm.7084]

Kalu Abay kobe better jumper, cuz jordan's jumper did not translate at the 3pt line

[@PassItToMe360]

If we're talking strictly jumpshots then I would take Kobe because while Jordan takes better shots and is significantly more efficient, Kobe is able to drain very awkward shots from ANYWHERE on the court(and Kobe's form is perfect).

[@erennazir646]

[@erennazir646]

[@erennazir646]

Adam Idinarene I agree, IMO MJ the goat but Kobe is my favorite player

Eren Nazir how many MJ games you seen

[@erennazir646]

Mrcastro312 has nothing to do with my comment

[@Positive_energy4u]

There's literally no player in the history of the league with a bigger offensive repretoire than Kobe .Dude is poetry in motion on the court. The look on Doc Rivers at 5:30 says it all

[@well.thy.one.]

Yep

[@lavarball3552]

2005-2010 kobe was the best offensive player in NBA history

[@establishedSeptember]

Na 95 - 96 Jordan > Kobe Bryant Kobe shot the rock way more then Jordan still only has 2 scoring titles

[@stephencurryisgumchewingba6074]

The Finesse Kid wilt in his prime is greatest scorer in nba history

[@esoakunne5590]

kobe most complete offensive player skill wise(better range handle)...jordan most effective offensive player. and MJ 89-93 is better than the 95-96 version to me

[@adamleon9128]

AJ Freakin' Styles 03*

[@zealousrider6612]

lmao michael jordan shoot the rock more.. do your research.. mj avrg over 21 two-point attempt, while kobe 15 attempt.. MJ is far superior attacking the rim thats why he's so effective, kobe pattented his play style to fade-away MJ 96-98

[@russell9411]

Kobe skillset is crazy. Taking endless contested shots

[@Strolific]

Kobe was such a monster man.

He is phenomenal

[@bebreesy8752]

Much closer to MJ than people give credit for, has delivered time and time again for LA

[@danyalkazmi1400]

He's not close to MJ, that's just a fact. But that doesn't mean he isn't top 10 all-time. Kobe isn't in the GOAT discussion is all. Plenty of players, not just MJ, were better than him.

[@GNBasketball]

lol he has 5 rings to mj's 6 and has passed mj on the all time scoring list even with injuries but "He's not close to MJ" LMAO ok.

[@AD-fi6em]

Danyal Kazmi how is he in not in the discussion. I can name a few people he’s better than in the top 10 list. Shaq, Larry, Duncan and Olajuwon are not better than Kobe idc what anyone says.

[@trainhard1626]

Danyal Kazmi Kobe is in the discussions, he’s better scorer than Jordan hence why he’s up higher on the scoring list. Kobe is a top 3 player, arguably the GOAT

I mean gerald green is ass at defense anyway lol

[@abualzuaree]

Marcus Barlow no that was good defense, just much better offense, kobe was unfair

Sick dunk at the end

[@sdotsr32]

Listen statically lebron gets the nod over kobe but when u watch these type of games these classics like the eye test shows u who was the better player my goodness that man gave u some post up to fadeaways to a crazy in game dunk many pull up threes and a lil crossover time to time to finish u off watch the video and tell me am i wrong he did it all out there my goodness to go with that amazing footwork hey hate the man but respect the game i only seen one other perimeter player that good and that's Mj point blank

[@danyalkazmi1400]

Statistics matter. We can pretend they don't, but the number of shots you miss does matter. Efficiency wise, LeBron has the 2nd highest PER in NBA history...Kobe is 59th all-time. LeBron James has 4 MVPs while Kobe has 1. And I like watching fadeaways just as much as anyone, but Kobe really did miss way too many shots and was sort of a ball-hog. LeBron's game is much more versatile too, like his ability to pass and play point forward. A freak of nature with major basketball IQ, that's why he's so effective.

[@GNBasketball]

^if statistics matter so much then lets say westbrook finishes his career averaging something along the lines of 27 ppg 9 rpg and 9 apg 1.5 stl and 0.9 blk but lets say he only wins 1 ring. Will Westbrook be an all time better player then Lebron? He must be because his statistics are better right?

[@toxicrave538]

Jermaine McClain lol thank you

[@kobe5rings]

Kobe got robbed of the MVPs those years nash won. Kobe teams were flaming dumpster smh

[@erikpuka2627]

He got robbed once.2005 Shaq deserved it to be fair.No fucking clue why Nash was winning them tho

[@scrotiemcboogerballs6400]

Nash did deserve them. Deserve doesn't mean should have one, but he was nasty. Kobe should definitely have had at least 2 MVPS.

That game that Westbrook played against the celtics this year when he had 45 reminded me of this. Two cold blooded assasins

[@MeesterSun]

damn this was over 10 years ago. Look at the commentators and crowd getting mad at the eurostep at 4:18 and calling it a travel, and nowadays that is a pretty weak eurostep compared to Westbrook or Harden's.
