2011 Rose was so damn explosive

This is my most memorable NBA Christmas day game. I was a huge D-Rose fan rooting for the Bulls yet that damn Kobe Bryant was making it hard on them 😂

One of the all time great Christmas games. If only D Rose didn’t have career changing injuries that season, & I still miss Kobe. :(

88 vs 87 a very tight game.

Miss these good old days

We need the FULL GAME !

,, i really miss this drose explosive drives layups.. man biggest WHAT IF

Miss these good old fays

Drose saying I’m fine just hurts to watch now

Kobe had fisher open at the end, it is hard to find the open man tho

ah I remember this game like it was yesterday. two stars that simply aren't the same anymore 😕

That move at 6:34 was one of my favorite Moves by Kobe. I remember watching this game live and immediately running outside to my driveway to try and practice that over and over when I was in middle school. RIP Kobe and Gigi and everyone who was on that helicopter. thank you so much for everything.

Man, DRose's speed was ridiculous back then. Never seen a basketball player run that fast in person.

This was the first time I watch basketball, this was the day I became a drose fan, this was the day I would never forget.

WHEN HE SAID THERE GOES THE MVP. OH THE MEMORIES

Back when the nba was fun to watch and not everyone hoisting up threes

This game was so lit at the time , definitely lived up to the hype of veteran Kobe vs young D Rose

Back wen bulls had dat squad

Pre-injury Drose > Jimmy butler

Never forget watching this game at my cousin house and everybody went crazy when Drose made that shot 😭💔 Long Live Kobe Bryant♾🖤 Long Live GiGi ♾🖤

Rose :(

and ppl got the nerve to say he wasn't the best pg in the league at this time

One of my favorite games, RIP Kobe

Good memories. This was the first game after the NBA lockout. Kobes my boy but he single handedly sealed the game and within seconds cost the lakers the game lol.

This was 5 years ago?! God damn, time flies.

Rip Kobe man this was legendary duel

What a game !!! Vintage Kobe & D.Rose. Good old day !!!

Oh yeah I forgot that this season was a lockout one and it started on Xmas. I was like roses first basket of the season? Was he injured lmao

Thanx for the memories Drose

This wad such a sweet memory

Love those throw back highlights brings so many good memories and D Rose was a monster back to his MVP days, No PG could be compared to him

Watching this live was magical!

3:05 when rose run the fastbreak... man that was fucking unreal. too FAST!

glad you re uploaded this from Dawkins MTA

Ahh I remember this... Hopefully Derrick demands the ball instead of Just giving it to Jimmy and going to the corner...

I already miss D Rose on the Bulls.

3:05 look how fast rose is compared to everyone else 🌹

Damn, Noah hit a mid-range shot for Rose's first highlight in this game lol.

rose was such a beast before injuries

I miss this Bulls team and 2011-2012 in general :/

What was kobe thinking at the end lol

maan i remember watching this on christmas with my family at the christmas party, i remember in 4th grade when i made my black history project on Derrick Rose. This man was and is an inspiration in my life. When i watched him play basketball , I saw someone i could look up to. A young black man, light skin just like me, short compared to others just like I, I saw someone that I could envision myself as. Not only on the court , but off it as well. I always find myself every now and then coming back to these highlights to enjoy and look back on my childhood and how much he means to me. I remember when he got hurt against philly, i stopped practicing like i use to, because I wasn’t able to see the person that motivated me on the floor. However, watching his perseverance through everything truly inspires me more than any play or highlight he’s ever been apart of. Although, it does hurts to know that he could have been one of the greatest players to ever play the game if not the greatest point guard ever . D rose 🌹 fan for life.

Im in tears

This announcer drunk af at 0:05 he said Minneapolis and los angeles

Rest in peace Kobe. Still can't believe it

one of the best xmas games🔥

This was the game that got me into basketball

One of the best games I ever watched. R.I.P Kobe

If D-Rose really does hang them up, can you do a top plays of career video?

Best Christmas game of the decade.

A win always makes the pain go away.

Feels so long ago. Like I should be watching this on celluloid.

Miss those days :(

RIP Kobe

RIP Kobe :(

I wish the Bulls would of just kept luol Deng cause he and Butler would be the best defensive wing duo in the league

Can u upload wade highlight from christmas games vs mavericks?

R.i.p Kobe this is one of my favorite games I’ve ever watched def a classic my fav player Rose but Kobe balled out !! Rip Kobe and Gianna 😞❤️

notice that voice crack at 1:20? lol😂😂😂

Still watching this on 2018 and that quickness and explosiveness that Derrick Rose have been. 💔

5:50 That is unreal.. wow!

Rip Kobe.

Damn Kobe choked bad. Rose came through in the clutch.

there's a rumor that, that floater still haunts laker fans....

LEGEND

Awesome memories! Both sides! Rose with that speed and handles and for sure Kobe! RIP Mamba!

He's coming back man

Back when the refs didnt call fouls all the time

On the cool I thought Derrick Fisher was about to shut down D Rose on that last play had the shorts rolled up and everything lmao.😂😂

R.I.P. Mr. Bryant

nice

One of the best floaters in the game still to this day

Drose should've never got hurt that game man 😞 tibbs. Your up 10 in the 4th qtr with 3 min left. Take drose out the game man. FUCK!!!!😭

Really miss that era

Da best pa announcer around!

RIP KOBE😢😢😢

This when basketball was fun to watch

5:50 FUCKING INCREDIBLE

Miss you kobe😥

Derrick Rose is a big time player that makes big time plays. When the game is on the line, there are not many players that can play under pressure during crunch time. Michael Jordan, Larry Bird and Kobe Bryant are the only ones that can play under these circumstances.

NOSTALGIA

Damn imagine it would of been all home town players playing for their hometown basketball teams drose would of had dwade and AD 😱

This was a good game

I fucking love the old NBA where teams are not super teams

I remember this game as a kid

Post Deron Williams' highlights vs Washington when he scored 42 points and hit 9 threes in the first half

Jimmy Butler was the only one not smiling after the victory.

Back when Rose was 1st option and could actually prosper instead of Jimmy.

Wow. Kobe was clutch even though he got blocked and fisher is wide open in the corner.

sigh.. why u do this dawkins...(┳Д┳)

I remember being so mad that we blew the game here lol

88 point win, thank you!

I think it's over for Kobe, but he had a great career so it's ok...Rose on the other hand needs to get back to this level. I really don't care what most people think. In ROSE we trust.

💔💔💔

That's why kobe is unstoppable 1 on 1, but predictable with team defense

Who else is watching in 2019 😂😂

ahh that Kobe 7 Cheetah, my first Kobe Shoes .......

DRose seem like unstopable in 2011

Why not show the 3 pointer that made the score 84-87? I know this is a Rose and Kobe video but show the full 7-0 run to take the lead. 😒😒

kobe🙏 best💪 rest in peace
