Ummm honesly if he can ball than let him, teams can always use a spot up 3 point shooter off the bench. Can he still give at least 10 a night 2 rebounds and 4 assists. If not than no one well take him. I mean Melo should have a job 1st imo over him
I will always remember sasha for those game 7 free throws he made with EASE to seal the deal. Kobe instilled that confidence into his teammates, much love sasha 👍
That's not true. The only good season Sasha had is 07/08 which Lakers lost in the end. He is pretty much irrelevant in the following two seasons. He can't shoot anymore after getting that contract
Damn she has someone on who speaks positive about Kobe? I swear she one of the biggest Kobe haters out there but I’m guess being a Celtic fan that will happen.
@@hondah2o I mean yes ur not wrong, but feel like vanfleet needs to keep doing it to really justify that comparison. not bashing what he has achieved but just needs to keep showing it is all
@@jroccdagameboy not saying who is better, point was just that fred has "only" done it for a short time so he needs to keep doing it and then the comparison will be more appropriate just cuz sasha did it longer, thats all
Iltffny: I disagree. The comparison can be made because Fred is better than him and more instrumental on them winning than Sasha. It’s not like Sasha has been a underrated 3 and D player for 8+ years. Honestly Sasha shouldn’t even be in this conversation. He was a basic role player that would hit the occasional 3 ball and is big for making two big FTs.
I never forget 2008 finals. I cry as a fan LOL it was like emotional hit that is missing from the NBA. But when we beat them back 2010 oh man....i cry of joy.
I'm positive that the Fair Game producers send requests to interview Kobe daily. Kobe's wife won't let him be interviewed by Kristine. She is super thirsty for the Mamba.
So thirsty!! She's definitely obsessed over him. I'm sure they've sent out many requests to get Kobe. I can't see Kobe coming on this show. It's too basic and gossipy for Kobe's high standards
Really enjoyed this interview as someone who grew up watching the Lakers! I have very fond memories of that particular 3 year finals streak, thanks for conducting a great interview!
I swear this guy has more respect in LA than he has in his own country. I'm from Slovenia and is impressive how many players a country of 2 million people has produced over the years. Luka Dončić,Goran Dragić,Saša Vujačić,Rašo Nesterović,Beno Udrih,Primož Brezec....Zoran Dragić,Uroš Slokar,Marko Milić also had a cup of coffee in the NBA. Vlatko Čančar is another guy who just signed with the Nuggets but I don't see him getting minutes any time soon. Not to forget guys like Jaka Laković,literarly eropean version of John Stockton who never came to the NBA even though he had multiple teams interested in him in the mid 00's. Or Matjaž Smodiš and Erazem Lorbek who were the best PF's in the euroleague at some points of their careers. Those guys were a mix of Nikola Mirotić,Luis Scola,Ersan Ilyasova. Both of them could turn into a poor man's verison of Kevin McHale in the post. Both never made a decision to sign with an NBA team for whatever reason. Or Sani Bečirović who was a stud before the injuries. He was like a combo-guard who could play on and off the ball. Very crafty just like Goran Dragić. Slovenia has more professional players than some ncaa colleges
I remember seeing footage of Kobe straight elbowing Sasha in the chest hard asf repeatedly in practice. He never backed down. People nowadays don’t understand how those dynamics work and how they truly build bonds between teammates
Dude is a freakin legend. Won two rings with Kobe on the lakers, dated the beautiful and tennis champ Maria Sharapova and he’s gonna look like Borat when he ages and grows a beard
Luke MF-Knocks She’s the type of white girl you can bring to the hood or home to mom & the black girls won’t even be mad & hate or talk shit. Be on some “Damn that’s a fine ass white chick.” 😂😂😂
Being a Lakers fan, I was here after Kobe's devastating death...to reminisce thoughts about Kobe to some of his closest brothers and friends within the team.
alex batlle For real! He would basically sit out the 4th. Game on the line. Phil puts him in the last 30 seconds as a free throw shooter. He rarely missed.
Why would you want to talk bad about a teammate? You don't want to destroy the chemistry of a team. Chemistry wins championships. Good answer from Sasha. I love this guy. He was loyal to kobe and work his ass off for does rings not like today players.
What are your thoughts on a Sasha Vujacic NBA comeback?
No need… SASA IZDAJALICA... Ask him how he left behind SLOVENIAN national team...
And how DRAGIC and DONCIC won with SLOVENIA :)
I hope he get another opportunity, he should team up with Dragic.
Ummm honesly if he can ball than let him, teams can always use a spot up 3 point shooter off the bench. Can he still give at least 10 a night 2 rebounds and 4 assists. If not than no one well take him. I mean Melo should have a job 1st imo over him
@@carlosinda3553 FYI NOBODY likes Sasha… specially NOT Goran Dragic :)

The Machine!
I will always remember sasha for those game 7 free throws he made with EASE to seal the deal. Kobe instilled that confidence into his teammates, much love sasha 👍
Sasha hit those free throws with no hesitation. I miss the machine. His head to head match up with Goran Dragic were also great.
I also remember him for leaving Ray Allen wide open for a layup with the game on the line
I still remember how he was more worried about his eyebrows than the free throws
My man
He even smoothed out his eyebrows first lol SMOOOOOTH
Only true Lakers fan will understand the significance Sasha had on our back to back run
Not really. I hated the Lakerz with a passion back then but I knew the value of The Machine to that squad. Deadly 3 PT shooter. Underrated defender.
Him and Horry are the best role players in modern era lakers
Indeed
That's not true. The only good season Sasha had is 07/08 which Lakers lost in the end. He is pretty much irrelevant in the following two seasons. He can't shoot anymore after getting that contract
Steven Lu that’s on everything! Laker nation
SASHA hit the two biggest free throws in Lakers history. And a great defender. True Lakers fans will never forget this man's tenacity and heart.
Thank you Sasha for your contribution to my Lakers! I’ll always appreciate you!
When you talk about Sasha you talking about a legend man thank you Sasha for giving me tears of joy
RIP KOBE 😢😢 I will rewatch the 3 peat and back to back everyday! Still remember Sashas brother relationship with Kobe . A sad year already 😪
He was a machine. Never seemed to get tired. Always played aggressive. Loved having him on the team.
Damn she has someone on who speaks positive about Kobe? I swear she one of the biggest Kobe haters out there but I’m guess being a Celtic fan that will happen.
@Notorious1503 😂
@TheBestFighter & You're a black Brit? Lol. FOH.
I speak for LA nation we love Vujacic like we love gasol
Yup
💯💯 RIP Mamba
I loved Sasha’s shotmaking and attitude. He backed down from NO ONE.
The machine! Sasha was actually a real underrated two way player
Fred Vanfleet on that era hahaha
@@hondah2o I mean yes ur not wrong, but feel like vanfleet needs to keep doing it to really justify that comparison. not bashing what he has achieved but just needs to keep showing it is all
Iltffny: Deserve what comparison? The comparison with Sasha? If so, Fred is definitely better than Sasha and I am a Lakers fan and love Sasha.
@@jroccdagameboy not saying who is better, point was just that fred has "only" done it for a short time so he needs to keep doing it and then the comparison will be more appropriate just cuz sasha did it longer, thats all

Loved Sasha's intensity and heart!!!
Who’s here after finding out Sasha is beating those cheeks?
Whos not?
Boy oh boy lol
Always negative comments and hate I love Kobe and Da sport of basketball straight up RIP #8#24#GIGI #Alllives
Which cheeks?
@@sidmichael1158 the girl interviewing him, Kristine. They're dating.
The Machine was growing in front of laker nation he was so clutch in other games Kobe put a lot of trust in him & he lived up to it
Who’s here after seeing their IG’s 😅
Fun fact: they are dating right now
I''ll always remember sasha for those free throws and maria sharapova
Kristine really trying to interview all kobes teammates. She really want the black mamba.
@Curly Que lol pretty sure this one will be 💯 consensual
Juan Pablo 😂 comment of the year 🙌
Juan Pablo 😂😂😂
@@JuanPablo-ww5cp he is married...
She would offer him a few BLACKED scenes
THE MACHINE!!!!!! Loved him in the Lakers.
Now they dating
Always calm. Sasha you’re laker for life. Thank you for contributions to bring glory back to La La Land
That game when he took that national team rivalry with goran dragic personal, it nearly cost lakers the series versus the suns.
Sasha was a lil beast that foo had heart and he through when needed big up to you bro!
One of my favorite Lakers of all time 💯💯💯
When you get to win championships with the Lakers AND plow Maria Sharapova. You've left your mark on this Earth.
Lucky sasha
AMEN
Plow 😂💀
Plowing Maria Sharapova > Winning NBA championship
And now he's dating the host LUCKY indeed
man sasha was so calm and cool delivering those two free throws down the stretch but in game 7
@1:49 Kobe Jr mentality. He learned well!
As a celtics fan I gotta say that lakers team was fun to watch!
This guy is a legend “Maria Sharapova” 😎
Back when she was slightly more attractive and less Serena Ls handed lol
She’s literally average ha no tits or ass.. just in the light
He's dating Kristine now. GOAT
@@vinnilittle2002 white people stay praising basic looking white women like Sharapova, then they'll say Naomi Oasaka and Serena Williams are ugly.
@@improbablyyourdad8458 ill even take sasha over those 2 lol.
This dude DRAINED 3s in NBA Live 2009
He will still not sign with the Celtics if that was the only team interested. I love the machine 100 times more!
Kristine runnin through the whole team 👏🏽👏🏽
Will never forget his clutch FTs to seal the championship back in 2010
Dude hit 2 clutch free throws at the end of game 7 vs boston to help seal the deal. Thank you Machine!
I never forget 2008 finals. I cry as a fan LOL it was like emotional hit that is missing from the NBA. But when we beat them back 2010 oh man....i cry of joy.
He look like Adam sandler on Don’t mess with the Zohan 😂😂
Ahahahahahahaah
Scrappy coco?
Choocolattte coco
He looks like Luis Scola
A true role player, we were lucky to have him
THE MACHINE! Laker bench legend, along with Luke.
She needs to do a blacked scene
💯
She probably has plenty times to get where she is
Or a whited you sob
lmao!!!!!!!!!
@@laurencebellinger3350 🤣🤣🤣
Sasha had that full court press D,3 pointer,beast on nba live 08
Dayum...Sharapova AND Leahy?!? I'd be a "Machine" too!
I'm positive that the Fair Game producers send requests to interview Kobe daily.
Kobe's wife won't let him be interviewed by Kristine. She is super thirsty for the Mamba.
I swear she is
Bryan K super super , every interview mamba is brought up
Bryan K For real tho, She is obsessed with him it seems.
So thirsty!! She's definitely obsessed over him. I'm sure they've sent out many requests to get Kobe. I can't see Kobe coming on this show. It's too basic and gossipy for Kobe's high standards
Vanessa is much better looking.
I really liked seeing sasha come onto the court. He showed grit and just hit big shots in big games.
The Machine, really miss the '09 and '10 Lakers.
And now Sasha is smashing Kristine
As a 2000s baby from SoCal, Sasha is always going to be a legend
They obviously hooked up after this interview
Makes sense .. 9 minutes lol
Really enjoyed this interview as someone who grew up watching the Lakers! I have very fond memories of that particular 3 year finals streak, thanks for conducting a great interview!
The way he talks, now i know why kobe loves him
Sasha , the Machine
Great memories
Can't believe she is dating a former laker as much as she is a diehard Celtic fan and former media reporter with them
Jordan,Sasha, and Shannon perfect back ups right there
My guy.......glad to see he doing well 🏀🏀🏀
Kobe really liked Sasha. How bout them clutch free throws too!
Most memorable clutch free throws
Sasha realy pulled her tho lol that's his boo

One of those under rated and under appreciated role players during those championship years...
Sasha has always been my favorite Laker!!
R. I. P mamba. You will be missed 💔
Sasha! My favorite laker of all time
Sashaaa gdje si brate !
More Kobe topics. Let's get the mamba on the show
If we can work out together, please hit me up on my IG!!
💔😓🙏🏽
Anything with Kobe's name on it is a click and like to me.
Dude is a freakin legend. Won two rings with Kobe on the lakers, dated the beautiful and tennis champ Maria Sharapova and he’s gonna look like Borat when he ages and grows a beard
God this girl is so damn fine
Luke MF-Knocks She’s the type of white girl you can bring to the hood or home to mom & the black girls won’t even be mad & hate or talk shit. Be on some “Damn that’s a fine ass white chick.” 😂😂😂
She'd look cute with her mouth full
Slimm 🤣🤣🤣
The blond's not bad either
She alright
The machine
U can tell straight up he doesn't do alot of these kind of interviews much
Keep u the good work bless u
Being a Lakers fan, I was here after Kobe's devastating death...to reminisce thoughts about Kobe to some of his closest brothers and friends within the team.
it still hurts and i don’t think I’ll ever be able to accept it, rest up Kobe… 🙏🏾
sasha put in work. Dude is a beast
I didn't know Sacha Baron Cohen played for the lakers, thats so cool
I'm convinced that Kristen wants Kobe sooooo bad like ever show she wants info on Kobe
"The black mamba"
My favorite player
Yea but now they are dating each other guess they hooked up after they shot this episode and her show was canceled near end of December like wow
Kobe pau lakers ,sasha was one of the favorites
I remember after a game interview Kobe was asked about Sasha and he said “ the machine is broken “ lol
Kobe's sense of humor is low-key wicked!
Man also said the machine needs some new batteries lol
Lol what about this one. Who? She-she? .... *chews gum* ...the machine...?
Great interview 👍
He was a great interview, surprisingly so.
Why does she care if Kobe was dancing around? 🤔🤷🏻♂️
RIP to Kobe 💔
Sasha was so clutch man! Had a lot of respect for this dude coming off the bench and would easily score a couple 3 off a fast break
alex batlle For real! He would basically sit out the 4th. Game on the line. Phil puts him in the last 30 seconds as a free throw shooter. He rarely missed.
Darren Ly yea very underrated, I was glad to see he got more minutes on the knicks.
Those 2 free throws were THEE coldest blooded free throws ever
Class act
The machine!! The machine!!!
Kristine is absolutely fascinated with Kobe.
Thank you Sasha!!!
She talk about Kobe in every interview no matter who the guest is. She stay trying to something negative about Kobe from every guest
They actually started dating after this interview. Sasha is the man
Source?
@@jrexx2841 read up Sasha vujacic’s Wikipedia
Why is she so obsessed with the mamba !!!! 🤷🏿♂️😂😂
She wants to be venomize.
Lol
Maybe she wants to get with the black mamba's black mamba,, see what I did there?
The good ole day
La Machine 🏆🏆
Now he serving them backshots boyyy get that hitter
So they matched up after this interview?
After this interview they dated and rest is history. Sasa is a real winner on and off the court.
Great interview
Why would you want to talk bad about a teammate? You don't want to destroy the chemistry of a team. Chemistry wins championships. Good answer from Sasha. I love this guy. He was loyal to kobe and work his ass off for does rings not like today players.
I like how shes tryin to press the issue tryin to start drama
He accepted you when he was putting that elbow in ya chest
Without challenging him, there's no respect gained. Without respect there's no trust. He trusted him.
I'm here after those ig posts ;)
Damn it was cool to see Sasha man, it’s been a while but brings back great memories of that Laker era!! She hatin tho 😂 #LakerFam
