LOL I remember this game. Kobe had a bad previous game and they called Brewer a "Kobe Stopper." Well they never called him that again. Kobe killed the Jazz every year.
I love how the best compliment Dorris Burke could give was that Kobe reminded her of LeBron tonight...and then that his crossover reminded her of Michael Jordan's. Since when does LeBron have more of a killer instinct than Kobe? The NBA has always been biased towards its poster children: MJ and LeBron. Kobe Bryant was just so unstoppable in his prime that he forced his way into the conversation.
Why do people compare LeBron to jordan or kobe it kills me because LeBron is def a top 10 all-time player but his style is closer to magic but LeBron is slightly better scorer than magic .... LeBron wishes he had kobe and Jordan's scoring.. kobe and jordan could just hit a zone that LeBron wishes he could hit
Man, I can't!!!! Its Just to much to watch these highlights by myself, he was special. To all the the people reading this post I hope the mamba will inspire you to achieve your desires and may you dreams come true. RIP Kobe 'the chosen' bryant 😔
It's not just the 38 pts but the way he did it hitting incredible jumpers! And especially the timing, the very next game after having a terrible shooting night in game 3
I love it when Kobe stuck it to the Jazz and their fans. Just remember you laughed at him as a rookie in the 1997 NBA Playoffs with his air balls. Then comes back to destroy anyone who defend him in the Playoffs.
As well respected as Doris Burke is, she lost her mind trying to compare LBJ’s work ethic to Kobe... there was no one, at that time, who was more hungrier and determined to win a title than Kobe Bryant and he was a man on a mission not just in this game but the entire playoffs. He took it upon himself to remind everyone of his killer instinct and torch every single one of his opponents on every possession... the most skilled scorer/player this game has ever seen. He was the complete package, he had no weaknesses... can’t make them like the Mamba anymore. ✊
"who was more hungrier and determined to win a title than Kobe Bryant and he was a man on a mission not just " If that's the case, why was it in a game 7 game against The Suns, Kobe only took three shots in the 2nd half? He didn't leave the game early due to injury.
@@southbanning2842 he was getting critisized for shooting too much and not passing the ball. but thats a different season lol. lbj improve his work ethic by watching kobe in the olympics of 2008
The Lakers wouldn’t have even gone to a GAME 7, let alone gone up 3-1 in the series, if it wasn’t for Kobe! Everyone constantly complained about Kobe being a “ball hog”, but the one game he decided to take his foot off the gas and not shoot as much as he normally did, he got/gets criticized for it? Make up your mind!
I remember watching this going crazy but i was never shocked! You never let me down Kobe! Kobe was truly an artist! Love you forever Kobe! Rest In Power!
This is the greatest player of all time idc what nobody says the way he killed you with his scoring and variety of ways he did it is like no other in NBA history, will never be forgotten Rest In Peace Mr. Kobe and GIGI❤️
Great memories watching this specific series with my dad, Kobe was incredible and my dad loved him dearly May they both continue to rest in paradise 🕊💕
My #1 absolute favorite Kobe game this one single game is soooo Kobe I love it !!! Anybody ever ask me about what kinda player he was I’d show them this game !!! Went 5 for 24 the previous game in a loss and comes out in this game laser focused !!!!
I will never forget seeing this game live as a teen. The media was saying Kobe didn’t perform well in the game prior, so we all knew he was on a mission to shut them up. You could tell right away he was in complete mamba mode to start the game, you could have thrown any defensive scheme in the book at him but there was just nothing that was going to stop him from scoring that night.
Forever you will be missed Mamba, you have taught me what it means about hard work and dedication. I was in foster care and in the boys home and overcame those treacherous days but you gave hope to stay focus, everyday I watch a video about work ethic or just watch your classic games. You meant a lot to others but you saved my life. Every time I see or watch something about you It sends chills up my spine, every time I type something in the comments, I start tearing up but you will be forever missed- Love ya💔😢🐍🙏🏾
He never shot a high percentage lol. Never had a season shooting 50% from the field. Doesn’t even shoot a better 3pt% than Lebron. Curry hits harder shots l, with much better efficiency.
Every single shot he took was so tough and ridiculous. He didn’t need no damn screens or illegal screens. He’ll still pull up and knock down shots right in the defenders hand on his face. Man was on a mission in 09. Did the same thing to every team and earned that ring.
Thee only person that beats Jordan in the eye test is KOBE. MJ was the greatest. Though when watching Kobe … I see why people think he was better. Jeeshh. Remarkable
One of my all time favorite Kobe Bryant games! He was killing Utah with his jump shot! Poor Corey Brewer! Also Doris Burke was annoying as a commentator during this game bringing up lebron unnecessarily trying to put him on Kobe's level
This and the Houston series where Artest and Battier are taking turns defending him and he is just wearing them both out making shots over perfect defense is insane. He did the Suns and the Nuggets filthy too. Kobe was the tough shot master fosho. #1 all time in that regard.
Those shots are just ridiculous. He made them look easy.
thekububeach only 1 other player hits shots like that and we all know who
Starting cooking right from tip
@@joshuahaynes7128 I never seen jordan make the kind of shots kobe made, no one in history factually speaking
Joshua Haynes who?
@Yuvi A he's gone 😢😢😢
This is just a midrange mastery from kobe. Damn bean!!!
champagne kevin we had pancakes this morning
LOL I remember this game. Kobe had a bad previous game and they called Brewer a "Kobe Stopper." Well they never called him that again. Kobe killed the Jazz every year.
Andre Johnson me too kobe is the goat
Until his last of the career with 60pts farewell...
Goat
I think he made it his goal to kill them ever since he air balled those shots as a rookie.
The “Bane” of that franchise.
Kobe and MJ played so identical.. Two greatest basketball players to ever play.
I love how the best compliment Dorris Burke could give was that Kobe reminded her of LeBron tonight...and then that his crossover reminded her of Michael Jordan's. Since when does LeBron have more of a killer instinct than Kobe? The NBA has always been biased towards its poster children: MJ and LeBron.

"Theres no one outside of LeBron james who works harder"
stfu Kobe work ethic is LEGENDARY. LeZero's is not.
I would've put another "like" in this comment, but I saw it had 81 "likes" & I didn't want to mess it up.

Agent Zero a comment section that woke this is rare 😂
Joel Villarreal yea he was the one of the faces of the league before that
Who else is reliving Kobe’s immense collection of highlights?
RIP Mamba, Mambacita, and all other victims of the tragic accident. 🐐🐍🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
@Hauger not funny ass
Hauger ya mama dead
Eric L me bro and I miss him he was my favorite player ever I love and miss him 😢😢
Dont feed the trolls guys...
I do. Sometimes I cant help but 😭 coz I still cant believe it.
Man, I can't!!!! Its Just to much to watch these highlights by myself, he was special. To all the the people reading this post I hope the mamba will inspire you to achieve your desires and may you dreams come true. RIP Kobe 'the chosen' bryant 😔
I know man, it's unreal, he didn't get to live that life after basketball like he wanted smh 🥺
You to...
It's not just the 38 pts but the way he did it hitting incredible jumpers! And especially the timing, the very next game after having a terrible shooting night in game 3
An absolute privilege to watch this master at work.
my favorite player forever
Kobe is the goat
hell yea
Not THE G.O.A.T. but he was DAM sho close THO!!!

No dorris, not even lebron out works kobe. Kobe was psychotic for the game, completely fixated on basketball

lebron is just a steroid head Kobe pure skills
im tired of that bitch, she has no basketball knowledge.

They laughed and didn’t win jack shit. Kobe went on to 5 rings baby 🔥
It's blessing to have watch Jordan & Bryant play the game of basketball goats
You know what’s a fact, we would never see players like them again
Kobe was Jordan-esque in this game 🐐🔥
RIP KOBE THANK YOU FOR A LIFETIME WORTH OF INSPIRATION AND MOTIVATION YOULL BE DEARLY MISSED REST EASY LEGEND 💔🐐😪
Best difficult shot maker of all time no question
9:48
When i found out that Kobe passed away. I LITERALLY dropped my phone and was speechless. Kobe is a player we are never gonna see again.
I remember watching this crazy game live, a whole 6 years ago. How time flies....
Joel Villarreal lol you dumbass he said it 2 years ago in 2015 lmao
i remember reading this comment. a whole 3 years ago. how time flies
We are getting old fellas
Damn I was in 5th grade watching this shit
bruuuh this comment is 6 yrs ago too. mind re watching this again after 6 yrs? lol
That's why I love Kobe. I clearly remember how he sucked in GM3, but it doesn't matter cuz it's Kobe who always could come back to save the day!

Man i just realized, Utah Jazz has a kryptonite name Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant.
Can tell Kobe was zoned N ball handling crossovers and shots were all on point while chewing bubble yum
Kobe is a basketball God no one knows the game better then him
Doris Burke was on that Henn and dem milds during this game lol.
The Shannon Sharpe Special
Only missed 8 shots what a beast

Kobe is the only player in history made tougher shots..
I’ll second that. Steph probably second.
@@theloniouscoltrane3778 Exactly
Thelonious Coltrane but its a spot up shot a repeatable shot is easier than situational mid range pull ups. Either way, both are 🐐
you forget about Jordan ? LMAO kid .

RIP to Mamba! My favorite athlete of all time! And this is one of my favorite games of his. Straight killer!
There will never be another Kobe Bryant
thats why i really love this guy becuz his the best.
2009 Kobe is unstoppable..
The way he was playing people should’ve knew he was going win a championship that year
KOBE TURNED THAT KILLA SWITCH ALL WAY UP THAT GAME AND IN DENVER NUGGETS PLAYOFFS CLUTCH SHOT
Killer mentality Kobe just love to shut down the home crowd he embraced that role.
Nothing like kobe on the road
I'ma miss you so much Kobe 😭 rest in peace to a true legend
Rip Kobe one of my favorite games
We love you so much, Kobe! We miss you and your strength and inspiration !
One of my favorite games! Rest In Paradise
Only Kobe can shoot a high percentage on the Toughest Shots... not even Jordan

Miss you everyday Kobe rest in peace legend 🥲💛
I loved this game. I loved this series. I will always watch these. Kobe was so good.
Pure greatness and skills
I remember watching this at 14 2009 Kobe was fun to watch
take me back to this year Lakers won championships , I was 18 worry free los Angeles was a beautiful place
The most skilled player ever..
this man is a fucking maniac, i cannot believe or understand how people don't have him top 10 all time
My favorite Kobe game of all-time
We miss you Kobe
Kobe was the funnest person to watch
Its pretty crazy that Kobe's game is just like MJ's game
Some of this stuff just looks like kobe
MJ and Kobe were cut from the same mold----absolute ASSASSINS. And, they took the most pleasure of doing this on the road in hostile territory.
This round was actually the 1st round in 2009. The Lakers faced the Houston Rockets in the 2009 WCSF
Damn good call. Completely slipped my mind haha
***** Haha it's all good. Nice video though. Thanks for the upload.
No problem. A lot more to come
***** Awesome.

Awesome...
You know watching these playoffs just confirms Kobe >>> Durant for me..
+ LOL at Doris with Craig Ehlo on the Jazz lmfao
I like watching highlights vids of the 🐐 better than NBA games nowdays. 💯 Watching this in 2019 still lol 🙋
This guy is amazing.
Rest In Peace Kobe Bryant
When steph goes off everyone like man he’s the greatest shooter in history. When Kobe goes off they be like he’s selfish lmao
If you enjoy watching the current players in the NBA then watching Kobe live on his prime(2005-2011) is an out of this world experience.
Really hard to find full game uploads of this particular game online. Thanks for the compilation tho!
such an iconic game of mamba mentality,R.I.P Kobe,legend lives forever.
looks like Kobe Jordan was in Kobe chewing that gum in his mouth all walking in slow motion relaxed
I miss this guy so much...
Kobe can't be stopped. Ronnie ain't know??
One of my favorite Kobe games !

Rest peacefully Kobe you earned it 🙏🏾
I was at this game a few rows above the LA bench! Such a great game, Kobe was en fuego!!! 🔥
Kobe made this game so easy for him. He moves smoothly hitting tough shots as they were normal shots. Fucking beast!
THE most mamba-ish game by Kobe ever! Stone Cold Assasin from the first whistle to the last!
This and the Houston series where Artest and Battier are taking turns defending him and he is just wearing them both out making shots over perfect defense is insane. He did the Suns and the Nuggets filthy too.
Kobe was the tough shot master fosho. #1 all time in that regard.
