just reminiscing on how great kobe was... 2008 seems so far away. had many great playoff games, but this was one of my fave ones, along with dominating phx.

i want to go back in time

Remember this one well. The series was a sweep and Karl had K-Mart guard Kobe for the entire series, he had a bad game 1 but after that was unstoppable.

Dem feels running deep right now

But but but according to the geniuses on the general board he's overrated. Yeah those were the days. People complain he's not a team player but he and Pau fit so effortlessly and alot of that had to do with Kobe's high iq for the game.

kobe is overrated in this new age efficiency metrics era

kobe wasn't ever a highly efficient offensive player, but he always gave above average efficient volume shooting

It was today I had someone at work come up to me saying did you see how Lebron went off the other day.

He got something like 38 points 10 ast and 10 reb or something.

Someone on here should post Lebron's best game VS Kobe's best game ever
Would be interesting.

Best game? Offensively or defensively? or all-around game?

offensively though, 81 points cant be beat to me. or his 63 points in 3 quarter tearing the mavs who advanced to the finals that year?

i dont watch a lot of lebron, so i cant say much of his game other than "efficient"

My two personal favorite Kobe preformances

And that Game 7 Perfomance in the 2009 WCF vs Denver was from another planet

Reasons like these are why I just appreciate these last 2 years of my guy. 5 rings 7 finals in a 10 year span, with different core and role players is a great legacy to leave behind. We're so spoiled as Lakers fans. Best thing I can tell all of you is just appreciate the guy and if you can go see the Lakers play soon because once he's gone... He's never coming back and these videos will be all we have left of his history and imprint on the game of basketball. Same goes for Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett.... Trust me I didnt appreciate Magic and MJ enough while they were here

Nah kobe is just overrated according to realgm. Someone else pointed out that the difference between Kobe's 45% and Jordans 50% is literally one shot per game.

I was at staples center when Kobe did this

One of my favorite Kobe moments ever! it happened right in front of me and my best friend, both die hard laker fans. We both starred at each other in disbelief screaming like teenage girls when that play happened good times!
