When Kobe died it was like Superman died to me. RIP

KOBE was the first person i didnt know that i got emotional over when they passed. he was special for alot of people

kobe is the literal definition of "built different"

“You left me too much time” wow and he still gets the game winner shot RIP KOBE

Kobe was addicted to being the best, that simple A true monster

When 4th qtr started & Kobe says "You had a great game" LMFAO!!

Kobe was my GOAT 💯

Kobe was MJ apprentice. His little brother. He adopted his style, his swag, his vision. Kobe was for me Like the son of MJ. What a treat. Having had REAL 2 GOATS in 1 league. Thank you both for the unforgettable moments which will never be replicated and duplicated.

R.I.P to one of the G.O.A.T's 🙏🙏 Does not feel like a year man, still remember seeing the news. Couldn't believe it.

Today in Reggio Emilia a street has been named after Kobe and Gianna Bryant, in their loving memory. RIP mamba and mambacita 🙏

Being from SoCal. Last year when this tragedy happen, for about a month or two, you could walk the streets of LA County and just see the sadness in peoples eyes..complete strangers...and once you make eye contact with them...it was like yeah you knew what they were sad about because the feeling was mutual. It was unreal and unlike anything ive ever experienced. RIP KOBE and GIGI

The fastest 38 minutes of my life...I need more Kobe. Thanks for doing this video.

Kobe one of the main reason I fell in love with basketball

I understand how you feel. I always hated Jordan. He would literally kill my team every game, but repected the hell out of his game. I could never deny he was the GOAT........ Feel the same about Kobe.

"He always gave who I was rootin' for problems." That made me chuckle. RIP Kobe

I remember during the all star game, I forgot what year, Kobe skooled Lebron and he was yelling at him to shoot it and not pass it

Much love Stevie knight thanks for celebrating Kobe on this day. Funny thing is I just watched this video yesterday this is a epic video about Kobe. Rip 🙏 Kobe and gigi and all the other people on the helicopter we miss you all. Man it sucks and hurts that Kobe is gone I'm glad I got to see Kobe play live in person and watch him grow from the young kid he was to the man he was when he passed.

Woulda watched for 3 hours. Emotional roller coaster for me. Ive said this before. 2 legends in my life...Kobe and Eminem. And I think both are very similar to their craft. Loved this vid.

The only time I cried harder was when my father passed away. I’ve been following Kobe for so long that he seems like a family member. I’ve been a Lakers fan since birth because my entire family are Lakers fans. And when Kobe had babies, his babies seemed like my nieces. So when Kobe & Gigi died, it hurt me to the core. Even now I’m... 🥺🥺🥺

That first time he went to Rucker’s is a classic. Talk about taking over a neighborhood..

Kobe is a role model for anyone who wants to work hard and accomplish something in life, regardless of whether it's in basketball or anything else. Model your work ethic after this man and you will accomplish your goals.

Kobe, Magic, Jordan, Iverson my all time faves.

Kobe was legendary at maximizing Prep Time. He was The Batman in the NBA

MJ: You can wear my shoes, but you'll never fill em. Kobe: I see, so you have chosen death.

Every generation will have thier goat 🐐. Kobe is my 🐐 for more than just basketball but the person he was off the court 🙏🏻 An idol and role model to be a better version of yourself every day. MAMBA MENTALITY ALWAYS!

When DWade said “this dude is on another level than me and im supposed to be great “. Talk about respect. I got goosebumps.

RIP Kobe. I'm a georgia boy, but my whole life I've looked up to that man.

Kobe's show was called Detail and he would break down NBA players. Wonderful insight, we really lost a genius way too early

Some of that reminds me of the stuff Jordan did when he came into the league...Kobe was the amazing to watch.

That one vid about him not flinching sheeeesh! Not even grazed.

Lebron will never be Kobe

I was in the break room at work. Just took lunch with about 75-100 other workers. The news hit us and most started talking about it. My friend stated something like “ He knew he was going to die. What do you think was going through his mind?” I didn’t realize it but I hadn’t moved. I was staring at the tv still. ( deep in though) I turned and said quietly “He was trying to save his daughter” The people around me grew quiet. I heard others asking “What’d he say?” Some cried. Others eat quietly. I just sat there feeling like I lost a piece of me. I cried when I got home. I didn’t know I would. But I don’t cry for Kobe the black mamba. Or Kobe the legend. I cried for Kobe the Father. Because, in the end, that’s what he needed to be for her. And Kobe always came through in the clutch. RIP KOBE BRYANT

THANK YOU FOR THIS ! Growing up in LA man Kobe was my jordan.

RIP to my idol and most looked up to. KOBE!🏀🙌

Jordan’s face was “So that’s what it feels like.” 😂

Damn man I was literally watching this exact video and I get a notification that you reacting to it lol you a real 1 for this. RIP KOBE & GIGI

When this year I came the first time in my new school in Italy in Rieti and damn, that LA Leakers memorial hitted me different. RIP Kobe and Gianna Bryant

"Luckily Im not from this world" Kobe

I was 18 when Kobe got drafted, and I lived, and grew up, in Lakers territory. We knew he wasn't from this planet. He just had that swagger you can't ignore. I've never cried when a famous person died. When Kobe died, I cried worse than a 7 year old whose mama just pulled a switch from the tree. I'm such a Kobe fan, my teenage daughter painted a Kobe memorial for my last birthday. I'm glad his counterparts are so willing to tell these stories of the Mamba. Thanks for sharing this.

The greatness of Kobe✨

I've never viewed the NBA the same since Kobe retired

I’m not even a sports fan for the most part, but this was a great reaction of respect!

He did that to a 41 year old Jordan, but regardless Jordan was still a monster and also I'm sure Jordan felt proud as much as he was pissed off because Kobe was Jordan's pupil and also like Jordan's little brother

Man these stories are wild. I can't believe it's been a year already. RIP to a true legend

This was awesome! Thank you for this! RIP Kobe! We continue to remember and respect the great!

Seen Kobe play live at staples 15 times. Always amazing. Only seen Jordan twice. Jordan passed the torch to the BLACK MAMBA!

Kobe hurt. The perfect example of a younging that matured right before our eyes had all the talent in the world amd instead of throwing it away like many do he matured perfected his craft and became a legend. My generation's Jordan #85baby

MJ and then Kobe. The two best of all time!

I felt the same way about Kobe , he would always give my Spurs a hard time .....

I’ve never done anything at all with basketball, but this man, insane! I respect him so much. Even though I know absolutely nothing about the actual game, I know he won’t be repeated. RIP

Jordan told him that on purpose and the rest of KOBE career was history GOATS RECOGNIZE GOATS

Appreciate you sharing this compilation bro, these were definitely some under the radar Kobe stories. Really inspires you to get your butt into gear.

Rip to the goat 🙏🏽

RIP Mamba 💜 #MambaForLife

Kobe’s been my goat

Sorry for your loss Stevie, you have no idea how much Greatness u missed through all this years. Mamba Forever

Kobe is GOAT to me SK 💯 seen the whole 20yrs bro 💔❤️ im glad you did this 🙏🏼

Just to hear them tell Kobe stories. MAN, I can listen to this all day.

The only thing I can think of when Kobe schooled MJ, is a quote from Darth Vader, when he met Obi-Wan Kenobi in their showdown. “When I left you I was but the learner, now I am the master!”

Kobe remind me alot of Pac.. The same obsessive compassion for their art.. same drive and vision.. its crazy that they actually met according to ed lover

Doesn't feel like it's been a year. Crazy. May him, his daughter and all others RIP.

I’m glad you did this! Nipsey and Kobe were my 2 hardest deaths to deal with from the “entertainment” world. So many memories looking back on the legends.

From a DIE HARD Kobe fan, I appreciate this one bro 💯 If you can, dive into more Kobe on 2/24 & 8/24 🙏🏼

This is awesome!! 👊🏽👊🏽

As a Boston Celtics fan his entire career and then some Ive always had an enormous amount of Respect for Kobe Bryant and believe most of our fan base would say the same. His last game here he got a massive ovation and he’ll always be a huge part of NBA history, Lakers history and Boston Celtic History, losing to us once in ‘07-08 then beating us in ‘10-11.

@Stevie, thanks for showing up with the LA cap. No cap on that. Love your channel my boi. Keep up the good work. -Pedro- Representing Los Angeles

That’s why you’re one of my top 5 favourite youtuber aside from reacting to Em, and for this. My favourite basketball player of all time! Even though you aren’t a Kobe fan, the respect is still there. 👏🏻😁

Amazing athletes do that, When you sleep, Their exercising! That is what separates them from other great athletes, and makes them on a whole other level. That goes with everything in life, More you work, the better you become at it.

One of the best collabs ive seen on youtube. Much respect to Kobe

Brilliant watch! I knew Kobe was a different kind of beast but damn! Absolute Legend! R.I.P Kobe!

Thanks for sharing this and for all the honesty, he’s my 🐐

Thanks for this video bro! Much appreciated!!

Great piece bro 💜💛

Kobe had so much impact on people that those who hated him and the ones who didn't even know him. Kobe was so legendary the day he died the world stopped moving and came together as one.

Kobe was the first celebrity death i genuinely cried over. I actually used to kinda make fun of people for it. I never realized how much Kobe meant to me personally. He shaped me as a sports fan and a person. I was distraught for weeks. Couldn't even watch highlights without tears. The greatest competitor of my generation. Not athlete. Not ball player....competitor. He represents desire hard work and the will to be better. Splash in peace mamba.

This was dope man loved this video RIP KOBE AND GIANNA 🙏🙏🙏

earned yourself another sub. No over the top fake reactions. Giid stuff. Kobe was a monster

This Guy Has One Of Best Visuals By Backround specially In Violet Antourage

Mad respect for you doing this video...L.A. was full of tears when he passed...and even fans of his adversaries were broken by that news. Kobe was just supposed to win in life...when he retired, Angelinos had to respect it and let him go cause he gave everything he had always..and we did let him go only to later lose him in a way we couldn't understand...RIP

R.I.P. to a Legend. I wasn't the biggest Kobe fan either but you gotta respect his Game, Hustle & work ethic. Great reaction 👍🏾

Awesome videos Stevie 🔥

Jordan loved Kobe and saw himself in him. Kobe always said he’d never say he was better than MJ because MJ was a mentor and taught him so much. On the flip side, MJ said no one could beat him one on one, except maybe Kobe “because he stole all my moves” lol 🐐🐐 Their killer mentality is why I have them 1 & 2 in the GOAT talk.

You should watch The Last Dance on Netflix. Its absolutely amazing

Both the video and your reaction, fire.

RIP Kobe and may soul find peace. I pray the best for his friends and family.

Man you have no idea how happy I am that you posted this 😔 RIP goat

Stevie Knight! You're exactly that Kobe commercial!! "The Conductor" Explains exactly how you feel about Kobe.

Rest in Peace Kobe :( you were an inspiration to a lot of basketball players and a lot of people period. Kobe and MJ are to Basketball what Em is to rap. Both fierce competitors, who aren't afraid to tell you how it is and how it's going to be

Aye, Stevie, same here. I was NEVER a Kobe fan but I respected him and looked up to him as a family man and just a mentor on approaching life. I cried like a mf for Kobe and Nipsey too. Same reasons. Crazy. I ain’t expect me to react like I did hearing the news about Kobe.

*WOW! WOW! I'M SPEECHLESS! R.I.P. KOBE❤🐐❤*

Kobe was a true student of the game....always learning, from whatever source he could.....all those Lakers legends at his disposal.....and other NBA greats, as well.....like the Summer he improved his post-up game by training one-on-one with Hakeem Olajuwon....and texting Michael Jordan at all hours of the day and night for advise, as MJ talked about at Kobe's memorial....and the things that Reggie talked about! Kobe was also a true renaissance man.....not only learning basketball from Magic, but also how to be a business man.....promoting woman's basketball and other sports, providing a youth training center, supporting youth sports in general....being a great "girl dad"........one time, having never played piano before, he leaned to play Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata".....and played it for people...just because he wanted to! And winning a special short subject Oscar on his first venture into that media???!!!....are you kidding me???!!! Gone too soon for us to really see what that next chapter of his life was going to be.......and Gigi was going to be the best WNBA player, I guaranty! But we have all those memories!

Here's the thing stevie. We love your honesty, you are a strait fucking shooter. Great respects...

Kobe is a legend in every sense of the word The Mamba mentality, the ridiculous skill and he is the most intelligent, ruthless and relentless athlete I’ve ever seen at any sport or at any level. Kobe spoke like 3 different languages fluently. Rest in Paradise 24-8. Solid video homie.

Dude, I had the same exact reaction! Mj was my guy growing up and I couldn’t even recognize other guards as worthy, except Kobe even though I wouldn’t. It’s funny how we become attached and detached from these greats! What a freakin Killer! Rip and mad respect! Great video dude

@Stevie Knight I'm glad I watched this video...the 55pt game against Jordan... been watching replays of that game for the past 12years, it finally made sense. I first saw the game when I was on a basketball trip when I was in high school at Ci Cis Pizza when I was a Juniorback in 2003. Did not know there was a story behind it

My favorite athlete of all time💪

As a life time Laker and Kobe fan, I really appreciate this video. As fan of basketball even though you knew you didn’t really like him because he torched your teams you still respected it. And I think as Laker fans we knew this Kobe, that’s why a lot of us put him up there with MJ. So it’s nice to see the rest of the basketball world see him and his raw stories!

Kobe’s last game had more viewers then the game when the Warriors beat the 96 bulls record of wins on the same night

This was beautiful ♥♥♥

Man.. you summed up my feelings perfectly.. thank you
