Crazy. I knew this was 2000 finals. I watched this finals and many more before. I kept thinking how this was a young Kobe still learning the game. At times he crowded the lane and kept calling for the ball instead of moving, although he did have a bad ankle. But then I started doing the math about the end of the 3rd and realized this was the kids 4th year!! Regardless of having things to learn he was absolutely clutch when they needed him. Let the game come to him even though he was visibly frustrated at times. Miss watching this type of greatness.

@@bconni2 Mate, I live in Paris, France. I have absolutely no ties with LA, or the Lakers. And yet I wake up at 4am to watch the Lakers games since the early 2000s because I'm a Kobe and Shaq fan. I still remember how I arrived tired as hell to a very important meeting after the game 7 of the 2010 NBA finals. What I want to say is : why loving a player should make me blind of other player's talent ? Of course Kobe is awesome. But watching this game, I realized how exceptionnal Reggie miller's off ball game was. Everyone know exactly what he's gonna do and he still managed to get open. Whether Kobe is great or not has nothing to do with this fact. I don't even get the point of replying to me how great Kobe is when I'm talking about Reggie as if Kobe being great means that Reggie can't be too...

Watching this all over again truly gave me a different perspective on how truly amazing and confident Kobe Bryant was during this game and seemed laser-focused once Shaq fouled out in OT. 22 Years later I'm sitting here thinking WOW I didn't understand the weight of the situation that Kobe was under. The future superstar of the team separated himself this night, showing he wasn't just a 21-year-old kid playing Basketball in a grown man's world. I appreciate his performance, even more today than I did 22 years ago. I was 27 years old and an arrogant fan thinking OH yeah the Lakers got this in the Bag. Kobe and all the rest of the Lakers are gonna get the job done ✔️... This was a great preview of how great Shaq and Kobe could be when they played at their best... as well we got to see the Birth of the Laker's future Superstar and Hall of Famer... and how the Black Mamba was created once Kobe was the Leader of the L.A. Lakers 🏀 Franchise & Team. I LOVED watching this and reliving the emotions of it all, Especially now that Kobe is no longer with us anymore. 💔 RIP 🙏🏼 🪦 "Black Mamba" #24Forever #Lakersgreatest

Watching it live, they showed Phil Jackson in the huddle before the play. I remember it perfectly because it was so calm and accurate. He said, "I've seen this before against [I forget which team]. They're going to run Reggie off of two baseline screens. So let him through the first one, then make him fight through the second one and meet him at the top to defend the three." Phil gets too much "zen wisdom" credit but not enough simple basketball memory.

As a first-generation immigrant that grew up in LA, sports was the outlet that made me feel American. It was the avenue where it didn't matter where your parents were from or how much money they made. If you were good, people respected you. Thank you KOBE for inspiring me to be the best I can be. RIP MAMBA

America will always have a love affair with Kobe Bryant! He's the one these young cats want to be like, play like, act like. It's always Kobe, the hardest players I know that ever played the game of Basketball, and the hardest working player on the court. He trains the hardest, therefore, he will rip the greatest rewards and get the best results out of his game. Every time Kobe set on the court, the man he knows how to bring the game and get everyone involved on his team. There is no comparison. Kobe is in a lead by himself because knows what it takes to win and he had a great mentor MJ. So Kobe left no stones unturned while he was training or playing. His first passion. R.I.P. Kobe Love Yah!

I watched basketball because of Kobe. My brother and I started watching basketball during the Shaq and Kobe era. We screamed and celebrated when the lakers were winning. And cried when they were loosing. Thank you so much KOBE, for being part of our Childhood. And millions of others who you inspired over the years.

This game was the defining moment that I knew… that Kobe Bryant was destined for legendary status. He single handedly carried a Shaq’less Lakers team to a much needed win. And the most amazing part is: HE HAD JUST SPRAINED HIS ANKLE DAYS BEFORE… like what the actual f*ck?!?! 🤷🏽‍♂️🤯🤯🤯 Kobe will always be MY GOAT.

I hear a lot of guys tell funny stories about Kobe, but he was READY to own the moment in any game at any time or for the whole game. Even on his off nights, he didn't cheat the game because he filled the stat sheet and did all the fundamental elements with the same vigor as he would when shots are falling early & often.

Alexander Melnikov his first 3 championships Shaq was the man. He flopped in 04, flopped in 08. Played okay on 09 (his best or 2002) still shot 40% against mickeal Pietrus. 2010 he played good in the games they lost, and choked in game 7 got saved by his team and refs. 25/5/5 41% career finals numbers. Compare that to the all time elite greats. That’s not so good!!!
