Everyone saw them as competitors. They saw eachother as equals. They were both use to people treating them as idols. They treated eachother as humans. And as brothers.💯
akshat rout LeBron is more like Magic and Oscar O. Definitely a top 5 all time player. I don’t even consider Bryant a top 5 all time but he is definitely in the top 10.
Can you imagine as a child, idolizing someone you dreamed of meeting one day, and then not only do you meet him, he becomes one of your closest friends, and you play basketball with him, and in the end he ends up idolizing you?? Rest In Peace Kobe & Gianna Bryant
Codey Snow - it’s My Hero Academia reference, relax buddy. Basically he idolized a hero but the hero became crippled so he saw how much potential the kid has so he started idolizing him on his will to be a hero. Just watch anime you’ll understand.
Most times, it’s not a speech fully written down depending on how well of a speaker they are. It’s more like key points and highlights to help stay on track and to make sure they cover all that they want to talk about.
Very true I was at Walmart after church when I heard the news was devastated he was my mom’s favorite basketball player and I’d always watch his games with her so it’s sad knowing he’s gone
MJ rarely gives public speeches & hadn't spoken publicly about Kobe since his passing. It goes to show just how much he was hurting & how much he loved Kobe like a little brother. To have the G.O.A.T. himself in tears, speaking highly of you & your character to the world. Acknowledging your greatness to your peers, is the ultimate honor. Truly, 1 of the greatest moments in Sports history. RIP Mamba 🙏🕊🕊
When Jordan said “I’ll have to look at another crying meme for the next….” that was beautiful. Everyone - especially Vanessa - needed a good laugh despite all the heartbreak.
4 years later and it still hits me with an overwhelming feeling of sadness. I don’t think I’ll ever get over it, & I didn’t even know Kobe. That’s how much he meant to me as a kid. Great speech.
I don’t know why but Mike not even attempting to wipe the tears off his face messes me up every time. A man of his stature and image, who protects his legacy more than any athlete who ever lived, just not even thinking about the tears streaming down and just getting through this moment is just…heavy man.
Honoring our own emotions is so much more important and admiral than hiding it so small-minded people don't feel uncomfortable. Men need to cry more. Expressing sadness and grief is incredibly healthy.
I’m from Los Angeles, you should see the murals of him and Gigi all over the city. Childhood hero, adult role model, Los Angeles’ favorite son and icon. I still cry whenever I watch this speech
I feel the same way. I go back and watch Kobe’s final game every once and a while, kinda how I watch Jordan 1998 game 6 win. It’s the strangest thing. I don’t know Kobe, never met him. Saw him play a couple times but I feel like I know the guy.
I revisit this speech once every year as a way to honor Kobe as an athlete and a human being. Kobe has touched the hearts of millions. Kobe is a legend.
The media tried to ruin his image back then. But I've never knew or heard anyone that knew Kobe personally that spoke ill of him. That speakes volumes of his character. He inspired a lot of people.
The fact that MJ is so strong mentally and he gets up there and sheds tears within 15 secs shows ypu the relationship and respect they had for each other

Kobe was the one person MJ saw himself in. The relentless desire to be great. There are so many people that want to be great, and then there’s MJ and Kobe. A different level of excellence.
Anyone who understands greatness has MJ and Kobe as their top 2 basketball players of all-time. Most people don't understand basketball. Even fewer people understand greatness. You measure a man by his mindset and mental toughness. MJ, Kobe, Bach, Mozart, Michelangelo, Thomas Edison, Benjamin Franklin, Frederick Douglass, Navy SEALS, special forces, David Goggins, David Blaine, Jerry Rice, Tiger Woods, Eminem, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Jeffrey Immelt.
@@thsu8 I got MJ as my number 1 and Kareem as my number 2. Huge Kobe fan but Kareem is massively underrated. RIP to Kobe though he was a joy to watch as well.
Because basketball was the least important part of him to her. She has been dealing with the internal parts of him, this is the superficial part of him (I in no way am saying that as a negative
why do i see this comment everywhere... its just absolutely stupid because some people dislike the fact that kobe passed, also theres a number of bots. Literally NO ONE would dislike a video to disrespect a dead basketball legend....
Ppl get on him for not speaking out on much, with out as to ever thinking why.. That's for another day. Yet when you don't talk much, and then you do this it makes it that much more powerful.
Jordan doesn’t speak a lot but when he does speak it means a great deal and it hits in ways people dont understand. Rip to Kobe. I hope that what he teaches to all of us is that value of time, that value to always work hard, and the ability to just be a great person no matter the mistakes you make or the situation against you.
Dats a paddlin Mike said in the doc that he dosent speak anymore because of how long the spotlight was on him watching his every move and now that he’s retired he wants to be to himself he still donates to charity and other foundations he’s just not public about it
I just watched Vanessa’s and I pushed myself not to cry. But near to the i did and then I’ve started watch this and I’m still crying😭. RIP. Kobe and Gigi 😇✨💗
I'm so glad MJ and Shaq nailed their speeches. This is an incredible hard thing to do and they were both flawless. Not only a great tribute to Kobe, but some mild relief to the family.
Shaq and Kobe won three championships together. Yeah, they often argued and fought like most brothers do, (Much of it stirred up by the media IMO) but the respect was always there for one another.
It's May of 2023 and it still hurts that we lost Kobe. I played basketball growing up. Even as a midwestern white girl, Kobe inspired me so much. He is so, so missed.
I honestly think MJ should've started with that sentence & then proceed how Bryant in the beginning was an annoying lil brother & how he grew to love him...but I think he tried to make a small joke in the beginning which didn't work. Maybe it was nerves or just trying to make a joke for the sake of not crying like crazy in the beginning.
Everyone's speech was wonderful and moving. But I must admit I was most moved by MJ's. It was the most real, eloquent, endearing, witty, hilarious, heart-warming. Mj doesn't talk much, make speeches, make public appearances so we know he really wanted, needed to be up there to make this speech to Kobe. I'm old school, grew up with mj and I've never seen mj like this, speak like this about anything or anyone. It's really healing to have seen this speech by mj
He actually didnt ask to speak. Vanessa approached him and it took some convincing to get him to do it (from what i heard), but my god thankfully he gave that speech. It was so moving.
In that times nba wasnt as competitive like in the 80, 90 and 20. 6-0 in finals, score at will, over 10 scorer titles.. There isn't a goat discussion for guys who have knowledge in basketball
11:47 When, Michael said: “I had a little brother, that I tried to help in everyway I could. Please, rest in peace, little brother.” This broken my heart! 💔
My girlfriend at the time didn't understand why I cried when Kobe died. She just didn't understand what he meant to individual people like us. To have someone who ignited so many feelings and passion inside of us, and was a master of a sport we all love, lost so untimely truly broke hearts. Miss you Kobe, hope you and Gigi are safe and happy in the next life
She's confused why you'd cry over a person who didn't even know you existed. If Kobe would've seen that you died in the newspaper he would've forgotten about it 2 seconds later
@@patstaysuckafreeboss8006 I read your comment to my girlfriend her response was: "If I was confused I would have left you, I just didn't understand how much you looked up to him then." Followed by "sounds like someone with no kids and bad parents" grow up amigo.
Always saw the meme but never real tears it's crazy to see Space jam emotional like this just to show uu that life is real never thought I'll see the real mj cry rip to aal of our love ones
3 years later, I still couldn't believe he's gone. Kobe's passing was one of the hardest things to cope. When I was just a teen living in China, Kobe was the first basketball player I've known. I would watch lakers game during the lunch break with my classmates and admired all his moves! I bought so many kobe's posters and signed his name in Chinese (lol). 10 years later, I moved to the states. My top checklist was to see laker's game in staples center. I still vividly remembered seeing Kobe playing on court. He nailed it in the 4th quarter and lakers won ! That was a dream come true moment of my life. I wanted to say thank you dear Kobe. You gave me strength and hope. Now i'm 35 and soon become a mother. I will teach my kid to play basketball and watch your games together. Lots of love.
I've missed more than 9000 shots in my career. I've lost almost 300 games. 26 times, I've been trusted to take the game winning shot and missed. I've failed over and over and over again in my life. And that is why I succeed. -Michael Jordan

Kobe's daughter passing with him was the worst. It was something that shook the whole world. Kobe was special. He really was way too young. I watch this sometimes, just because it is good to cry here and there. I have a daughter her age and it just breaks my heart. That was a very sad day, because it reminds me of other good friends that passed away too soon. Jordan was a rock, and it shows you these guys are all people.
Seeing MJ emotional really puts into perspective how serious and competitive he was while playing, and why the emotional flood would always break after winning a championship. His teammates literally did not think he was capable of these emotions until they saw it with the trophy in his hands. They thought he was a sociopath, someone without empathy and whose only emotion expressed is anger and frustration, and it turns out he’s this big empathetic teddy bear the whole time. Love it.
It probably wasn’t easy to be like that either, it made him feel emotional during the last dance doc. When you have empathy you’re not unaware of your own actions like that. It was just what he had to do.
Lol, he has emotion, but he's definitely not a teddy bear, and in many ways, he was a sociopath. That said, I love the guy. Grew up watching him as a Bulls fan.
I never watched an NBA game in my life. That said, I knew who Kobe was and was always enamored and in aww of who he was. It's still hard to believe what happened. Life is not fair.
As a person who lives in Europe and was never a basketball fan, I find myself thinking about Kobe and all those who died that day almost every day. I have no idea why this tragedy affected me so much, I watch videos of him and cry a good cry, can't get over it. There was smth about this man
To get this emotion from Michael Jordan is so rare, we almost never see him around as much. And for him to be there speaking about Kobe is really special and shows how many people Kobe touched with his creative spirit. He's missed everyday.

Kobe didn’t look at his opponents as opponents he looked at them as an opportunity, experience and a partner or friend. Everyone has something to learn and to give. He cherished life no matter the position he was in. On the court, at home or in public it didn’t matter. He was one of few who chose to live while heartedly and put his fame aside. He realized something many in the fame industry dont and that is fame was his job not his identity. Rip Kobe.
2 years. Still hurts. Kobe made me proud to grow up in Los Angeles. The perfect representation of my hometown; the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, with the grit and grind behind the scenes. My childhood hero, adult role model, hometown icon, one of Los Angeles’ favorite sons. Mamba and Mambacita Forever.
Grew up in Dallas and even when he thrashed my home team I couldn’t help but admire him. That superhuman work ethic has been an inspiration on me for God knows how long. Mamba forever fr
I grew up in Utah, but I've always loved LA and California, I don't know why, maybe that was my home in another life, but I'm so glad that my Jazz had the honor of being the final team Kobe played against. Even though I'm not a Laker fan, and I never got to meet Kobe, his death still stings like crazy
Scored 33 theres that number ...think about it ...sacrifice to harness all that energy ...everything is energy ...the rulers want it all ...peace n love ...rip to both 😢
This is the only time I was moved by a celebrity's death. At 42 years old, I'm blessed to be old enough to have seen Michael in his prime but Kobe was my goat. This still hurts to this day, Kobe was an outstanding basketball player but most importantly, he was a great ambassador of the game. I was blessed to see him play live and witness his killer instinct and passion for the game. Those are moments I will never forget. I miss him like I knew him personally. That's how hard this one hit me. Rest in peace champ, I'm sure you're hitting that fade-away in heaven right now along with the other greats we've lost.
What you posted just shows that you are a true human being! Your words shows the love of not just the game but of what kobe did not only on the hard wood but in the way he carried him self as a man, a father, and a husband. Tragedy is never easy to deal with but if you have and exercise your faith in Jehova God almighty can one deal with great loss!
I myself was confused at my own emotions when this tragedy occured, knowing that i had never really met Kobe but loved him just the same but after realizing how deeply he had touched my heart with what he has given to this world and seeing how much others felt the same it made sense
This is one of the best Eulogies I have ever heard. Thank you for your leadership, Kobe and Michael. You both had a passion for life and that goes beyond any sport….
@Levent.A. STFU....What are you even talking about?? Who takes money to the grave with them?? We will all leave many things behind when we die...what's your point?? I'm sure you'll be forgotten easily, yet Kobes name will be mentioned for decades to come!

MJ, Kobe, Bach, Mozart, Michelangelo, Thomas Edison, Benjamin Franklin, Frederick Douglass, Navy SEALS, special forces, David Goggins, David Blaine, Jerry Rice, Tiger Woods, Eminem, Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Jeffrey Immelt.
@@thsu8 I got MJ as my number 1 and Kareem as my number 2. Huge Kobe fan but Kareem is massively underrated. RIP to Kobe though he was a joy to watch as well.
im so glad Kobe took the torch from MJ, its almost like we watched MJ play for 35 years.
Watching Michael's Jordan's speech now in 2022 and it's still making me teary. So heartfelt 😢
Yeh I just cried just now
It's painful my kinsman!
Same here man, same here 🥺
I know i just watched it & can't stop the tears.
I love Jordan and Kobe God Rest his soul and heal the hearts of his family and loved ones name I pray amen
Vanessa is so strong, to even be standing after that kind of loss, let alone in that arena. I couldn’t have done it.
Me either!! I don’t know how she did it!!
Losing a farther and a daughter? Good God. Just awful.
The reason why is because she stills remembering when he cheated on her.
@@thelowriders 😂
Because basketball was the least important part of him to her. She has been dealing with the internal parts of him, this is the superficial part of him (I in no way am saying that as a negative

why do i see this comment everywhere... its just absolutely stupid because some people dislike the fact that kobe passed, also theres a number of bots. Literally NO ONE would dislike a video to disrespect a dead basketball legend....
Fr idk why 2.4k people disliked this
They probably missed the like button because their eyes were full of tears
Don't know if it was already said, but man .... Michael Jordan really is the Michael Jordan of delivering a speech.
Ppl get on him for not speaking out on much, with out as to ever thinking why.. That's for another day. Yet when you don't talk much, and then you do this it makes it that much more powerful.
Even his jokes were goat level
Jordan doesn’t speak a lot but when he does speak it means a great deal and it hits in ways people dont understand. Rip to Kobe. I hope that what he teaches to all of us is that value of time, that value to always work hard, and the ability to just be a great person no matter the mistakes you make or the situation against you.
He didn't write it on his own
Dats a paddlin Mike said in the doc that he dosent speak anymore because of how long the spotlight was on him watching his every move and now that he’s retired he wants to be to himself he still donates to charity and other foundations he’s just not public about it

I'm so glad MJ and Shaq nailed their speeches. This is an incredible hard thing to do and they were both flawless. Not only a great tribute to Kobe, but some mild relief to the family.
Shaq and Kobe won three championships together. Yeah, they often argued and fought like most brothers do, (Much of it stirred up by the media IMO) but the respect was always there for one another.

Rest easy Kobe and Gigi
RIP
I honestly think MJ should've started with that sentence & then proceed how Bryant in the beginning was an annoying lil brother & how he grew to love him...but I think he tried to make a small joke in the beginning which didn't work. Maybe it was nerves or just trying to make a joke for the sake of not crying like crazy in the beginning.
Better than his "Republicans wear sneakers too" statement. Maybe he does have a heart?
I can't stop crying Lakers all day come on LeBron and AD

Everyone's speech was wonderful and moving. But I must admit I was most moved by MJ's. It was the most real, eloquent, endearing, witty, hilarious, heart-warming. Mj doesn't talk much, make speeches, make public appearances so we know he really wanted, needed to be up there to make this speech to Kobe. I'm old school, grew up with mj and I've never seen mj like this, speak like this about anything or anyone. It's really healing to have seen this speech by mj
You should see his speech in his medical center inauguration...
He actually didnt ask to speak.
Vanessa approached him and it took some convincing to get him to do it (from what i heard), but my god thankfully he gave that speech. It was so moving.

My girlfriend at the time didn't understand why I cried when Kobe died. She just didn't understand what he meant to individual people like us.

Always saw the meme but never real tears it's crazy to see Space jam emotional like this just to show uu that life is real never thought I'll see the real mj cry rip to aal of our love ones
MJ23 was my generation and that's also my idol crying.
3 years later, I still couldn't believe he's gone.
Kobe's passing was one of the hardest things to cope. When I was just a teen living in China, Kobe was the first basketball player I've known. I would watch lakers game during the lunch break with my classmates and admired all his moves! I bought so many kobe's posters and signed his name in Chinese (lol). 10 years later, I moved to the states. My top checklist was to see laker's game in staples center. I still vividly remembered seeing Kobe playing on court. He nailed it in the 4th quarter and lakers won ! That was a dream come true moment of my life. I wanted to say thank you dear Kobe. You gave me strength and hope. Now i'm 35 and soon become a mother. I will teach my kid to play basketball and watch your games together. Lots of love.
Thank you for writing this

Kobe's daughter passing with him was the worst. It was something that shook the whole world. Kobe was special. He really was way too young. I watch this sometimes, just because it is good to cry here and there. I have a daughter her age and it just breaks my heart. That was a very sad day, because it reminds me of other good friends that passed away too soon. Jordan was a rock, and it shows you these guys are all people.

Seeing MJ emotional really puts into perspective how serious and competitive he was while playing, and why the emotional flood would always break after winning a championship. His teammates literally did not think he was capable of these emotions until they saw it with the trophy in his hands. They thought he was a sociopath, someone without empathy and whose only emotion expressed is anger and frustration, and it turns out he’s this big empathetic teddy bear the whole time. Love it.
It probably wasn’t easy to be like that either, it made him feel emotional during the last dance doc. When you have empathy you’re not unaware of your own actions like that. It was just what he had to do.
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
reading that makes my heart drop
That’s an Aquarius ❤
Lol, he has emotion, but he's definitely not a teddy bear, and in many ways, he was a sociopath. That said, I love the guy. Grew up watching him as a Bulls fan.
To see Micheal cry shows how much he loved Kobe and that's a beautiful thing. ❤
The fact that 1.2 thousand people disliked the video shows how horrible people can be
@Tuperwear good point, you're absolutely right but at least they shouldnt dislike.
The AadyLegion it doesn’t really matter anyways
The question is, which video doesn't have dislikes
Tuperwear I think it’s how much he gave back. I wasn’t a Kobe fan but I give him mad respect
I think most of the dislikes come from Kobe’s rape allegations. (I’m not hating, just giving my opinion.)
This is the most heartfelt speech I have ever seen... I am in tears.

Kobe didn’t look at his opponents as opponents he looked at them as an opportunity, experience and a partner or friend. Everyone has something to learn and to give. He cherished life no matter the position he was in. On the court, at home or in public it didn’t matter. He was one of few who chose to live while heartedly and put his fame aside. He realized something many in the fame industry dont and that is fame was his job not his identity. Rip Kobe.
This speech was so genuine ❤️
Absolutely beautiful
Hello how are you doing can we be friends
2 years. Still hurts. Kobe made me proud to grow up in Los Angeles. The perfect representation of my hometown; the glitz and glamour of Hollywood, with the grit and grind behind the scenes. My childhood hero, adult role model, hometown icon, one of Los Angeles’ favorite sons. Mamba and Mambacita Forever.
Grew up in Dallas and even when he thrashed my home team I couldn’t help but admire him. That superhuman work ethic has been an inspiration on me for God knows how long. Mamba forever fr
I grew up in Utah, but I've always loved LA and California, I don't know why, maybe that was my home in another life, but I'm so glad that my Jazz had the honor of being the final team Kobe played against.

This is the only time I was moved by a celebrity's death. At 42 years old, I'm blessed to be old enough to have seen Michael in his prime but Kobe was my goat. This still hurts to this day, Kobe was an outstanding basketball player but most importantly, he was a great ambassador of the game. I was blessed to see him play live and witness his killer instinct and passion for the game. Those are moments I will never forget. I miss him like I knew him personally. That's how hard this one hit me. Rest in peace champ, I'm sure you're hitting that fade-away in heaven right now along with the other greats we've lost.
Man. I swear I thought I wrote this. I couldn’t have said it any better
What you posted just shows that you are a true human being! Your words shows the love of not just the game but of what kobe did not only on the hard wood but in the way he carried him self as a man, a father, and a husband. Tragedy is never easy to deal with but if you have and exercise your faith in Jehova God almighty can one deal with great loss!
I myself was confused at my own emotions when this tragedy occured, knowing that i had never really met Kobe but loved him just the same but after realizing how deeply he had touched my heart with what he has given to this world and seeing how much others felt the same it made sense
I mean yeah dude this would be really sad if it was real but highly doubt Kobe is really dead.
This is one of the best Eulogies I have ever heard. Thank you for your leadership, Kobe and Michael. You both had a passion for life and that goes beyond any sport….
