I like how when Kobe and Shaq sat down for their interview together post retirement and they recalled their 2004 Finals loss, Kobe said (paraphrasing) “2004 was my fault. I didn’t get us prepared to run our automatics. I didn’t get Gary, Karl, the new guys ready enough” and there was absolutely no argument from Shaq. Who was the unquestioned leader of that team again?

That water in Flint is lit dog. What do you think about the "ladies" of the WNBA going Sri Lankan on Caitlan Clark. Klay Thompson and Steph Curry both couldn't guard Kyrie Irving in the NBA finals. There's no one on that team stopping Kobe but at least say Iguodala who could actually kind of play defense. What a ponce.
This is all completely spot on. Kyrie DID cook every perimeter defender on that team--multiple times. Yeaaaa, thinking I have to do some kind of a piece on Caitlin Clark and the WNBA as a whole. Stay tuned for that 😉

Accounting for the scoring averages of that time really magnifies what Kobe actually did. You said in an earlier video with today’s “defense” in the NBA, there’d literally be nothing stopping him from dropping 50-60-70 points a night whenever he chose to.
Pretty sure 2013 Kobe crossed Klay on the floor one game and then THE Achilles game beat the warriors to put the lakers in the playoffs. In his mid to late 30s.
Kobe would’ve dropped 30-40 on Klay, easily. They’d have to double team him or he would go off. Andre Igoudala would’ve been charged with guarding him anyways.
The media absolutely hates Kibe because he embarrassed them and proved them wrong. He’s the closest to MJ, and faced tough competition, and played for the Lakers where the lights were brightest. He’s also respected worldwide because he truly became a basketball ambassador. LeBalco cheated the game and ruined the NBA. What “GOAT” has a flop compilation?
Those five on the court would beat the prime GS by 30 points. Daymond wouldn't be guarding anyone because he'd be too busy crying in the women's bathroom.
Kobe didn't care about discourse and wouldn't participate. It's up to historians but their channels all rely upon MJ curry LBJ glaze. Or prop up next black hope. Shay can't
As the years go by I realize how much I have been underrating my guy Kobe (the guy in my PFP). What he was able to accomplish - on both ends of the floor, is one of the greatest things done since Michael Jordan retired in 2003.
@@chauvintookaknee4blm268 I see that you stepped off of the small yellow bus you took to school, I’m making the comparison that he’s been the most complete player in the league since MJ has retired since 2003. And since 2016 no player has been able to replicate his (Kobe) dominance on offense (mid/post/slashing/footwork/shooting), and defense as a player.
They hated him when he played (one MVP? gimme a break!) and now that he's dead, they need to justify themselves and their continued hate. Too bad for them, real NBA fans know the truth.
Doug Christie was a better defender than Klay and even he couldn't stop Kobe. Klay Thompson made one All-Defensive 2nd team selection. How was he going to stop Kobe?🤣🤣 Fisher and Harper would have played full court press on Steph. Kobe is guarding Klay. So no open shots for him. Grant and Horry would have no problem with Draymond. Shaq would be Shaq.
1. All defensive selections are valuable but i would like to argue that tayshaun prince who guarded kobe wasn't voted to all defensive team until 04-05. So even though klay wasn't voted to one until 17-18, klay could probably hold his own (It would be damn near impossible so the defensive schemes will have to be on point). 2. Derek fisher would be eaten alive by curry. Ron harper was 37. 3. robert horry was a very good role player, but iggy can def handle him. horace grant would be locked by draymond. Also, this is 35 year old Horace not a prime horace. 4. Shaq will be shaq and it would be tough trying to keep him out of the post.
@@21Kolb that's fair. I'm not saying Fisher and Harper will lock down Steph, however, by playing full court press which no one does these days, he's not going to get those wide open shots that he gets. Will he hit yes, but there will be a few misses and Shaq will be there to grab the rebound. I'm not counting on Horry nor Grant to be big time scorers. I'm saying they'll stop Green. Draymond is effective in the GSW system. However that man can do little to nothing on his own. He's proven time again to be Mr triple single without Klay and Steph. Draymond would help out with Shaq so someone is going to be open to shoot 3s, be it Horry, Fox, Fisher, Shaw, or heaven forbid it's when they had Rice on the team. He'd have a field day.
Kobe in his prime had to be guarded by all-league defensive level players, like Doug Christie, Shane Battier, Bruce Bowen, Raja Bell, Tony Allen, Ruban Patterson and Shawn Marion, and almost routinely COOKED every last one of them. EVERY ONE OF THOSE GUYS I JUST NAMED WERE AT LEAST AS GOOD A PERIMETER DEFENDER AS KLAY THOMPSON. See this is why I hate athletes/former athletes interviewing athletes/former athletes. Any serious and knowledgeable interviewer would have easily refuted and challenged Draymond‘s goofy and flawed takes.
That is a great point to bring up. Everyone likes to talk about how Kobe had Shaq, but it's almost never brought up that Shaq has always had some pairing with an elite guard/forward. Similarly, I've long since thought Klay Thompson was overrated and was only propped up to make it seem like LeBron faced tougher opponents than he actually did. Suggesting that Klay could guard Kobe just further proves that point. It's laughable.
Being a Jordan fan, I absolutely hated the lakers and the threat they posed to winning more than the bulls. I especially hated Kobe because of this and pulled against him his entire career. He scared the hell out of me though and I knew he was a problem. But because I was so anti-Kobe, I tried to deny his greatness and did so until I started watching Skap. I’ve had to be honest with myself after listening to Skap’s arguments about Kobe and I find myself unable to disagree. Dude really was that guy. It’s sort of healed me in a way because I hated Kobe for so long but was watching him dominate and be the reason those 5 championships happened. My mind is more at ease now. I can admit it without the hate. Thanks Skap
We already knew MJ fans hated feared Kobe. Skap slights Kobe in every video for MJ. It's gross AF. Kobe did more w less than him too. Better leader too. MJ was toxic, Kobe was not and didn't have pippen the other guys confided in
@@chauvintookaknee4blm268 well you took this a bit too far than I intended there. I never said MJ was now less in my mind. Just that I was now making room for Kobe. You’ll never convince me or anyone who actually watched Jordan that Kobe is better. That’s always been the problem
@@ryanmoeck7826 nope you admitted it. Kobe was more skilled and beat tougher competition. MJ expansion era and watered down league less comp. Nike puppet to expand a star not a game hence ft merchantry push offs palming
@chauvintookaknee4blm268 Yeah, I think LeBron and MJ are both greater than Kobe, however, it is funny to me how some of these Kobe stans are really just MJ stans that only prop up Kobe to slight LeBron. At least you seem like a real Kobe fan, even if I heavily disagree with your takes
@@BBallGOAT Nah, most of the LeBron stans (u) are just afraid that most ACTUAL NBA players pick Kobe over Bron and that most casual fans STILL pick Kobe over LeBron when they actually do any real scientific polling (I did one as a college project on campus in Virginia and Kobe won by a landslide even with Prime LeBron). Most MJ fans have Kobe ahead of LeBron because Kobe most exemplifies the virtues they admire most in MJ, and for the fact Kobe's the closest thing to MJ in terms of skill, fundamentals, will-power, toughness, hoops IQ, and RINGS (he and mj are the only two players to three peat while making all nba teams AND all-nba DEFENSE teams for all 3 rings, the ONLY TWO PLAYERS). Most players think Kobes better; most fans think Kobe's better. Only LeBron stans think Lebron is better than either (and the analytics nerds who invented PER to artificially prop him up and his penchant for racking up easy uncontested defensive rebounds). No ACTUAL fans who are genuine basketball fans have LeBron over Kobe. I love the fact Jokic is blowing LeBron away in all the advanced efficiency metrics so by the very criteria the Bronsexuals lie and CLAIM Lebron is greater than Kobe, Jokic, by the EXACT same criteria, is FAR greater than LeBron. Gervonta Davis said it best: "Anybody who got Lebron over Kobe is out of they cotton-picking mind." Facts. He spoke for the culture. Go to any hood. Go ask. Kobe destroys Bron. ITS WHY YOU GUYS ARE ALWAYS ON THESE CHANNELS. Kobe and MJ Fans don't go to LeBron channels because the guy is boring af to watch. No skill. Travels religiosly. Clunky jumper. Meh passing. BAD handles. Lots of uncalled carrying and pushoffs. There is no need to PROSELYTYZE on LeBalco channels because the real ones already know. Its Bron fans that simp for favor in the comments section because they know he's a media creation and ACTUAL people aren't drinking the kool-aid. Skap's channel is growing at a rate that, by this time next year, it will be VERY apparent that more people dislike LeBron more than any of the other greats. And this is despite the media fawning all over him daily. LeBron isn't a top 10 player. His fanbase is merely symptomatic of the need to mandate REAL IQ tests for participation in these discussions. Lowest IQ bunch. Explain LeBron's #1 ALL TIME LEAD IN TURNOVERS by more than 500! That's next level bad basketball. That's poor hoops IQ. A turnover is the worst play in basketball. Full stop. LeBrons ONLY case over Kobe is MVPS (voted on, politics) and SOME stats which, in a vacuum, is completely meaningless. The guy is not a better player than Kobe Bryant, anybody with eyes and/or an IQ over 110 can see this. I'm never met a high IQ person who thought LeBron was better than Kobe. And no amount of empty stat-padding (a la Westbrook) is going to change that. Luka will end his career with better per game averages ACROSS THE BOARD than LeBalco (who definitely takes EPO, shout out to Chael Sonnen), and Jokic has already passed LeBalco in PER (AD is going to pass LeBalco in PER too). Jokic has BETTER EFFICIENCY STATS than LeBalco and a ring with LESS help than any of LeBalco. LeBalco has less rings than Kobe but LeBalco stans have to pretend like empty stat-padding is more important than carrying your team to rings, so by their logic: Jokic > LeBalco; Luka > LeBalco. Better STATS. See Bron stans? The stats argument is a double-edged sword. Win. Winning is where GOAT debates begin and end. LeBalco fans think going 1-8 vs KD Warriors but averaging 33 ppg while winning 1 game in 9 attempts is 'GOAT' behavior lol. The only tactic LeBalco stans have is to OVER-EXAGGERATE and OVERRATE the level of competition LeBalco faced in the Finals to justify while all of his empty stats didnt lead to any winning. KD Warriors almost lost to Harden Rockets (went to game 7, with an INJURED CHRIS PAUL, and the Warriors only won game 7 by single digits despite Houston MISSING a franchise record 27 threes). IF Cp3 was healthy, Houston beats the KD Warriors in 7. They almost beat them WITHOUT CP3 (who, since Bronsexuals love stats so much, btw has a higher CAREER VORP than Magic Johnson - so CP3 > Magic 'bEcAuSe oF sTatS"). LeBalco went 1-8 against the same team Harden almost BEAT SINGLEHANDEDLY: 3-4 > 1-8. Harden had LESS help than LeBalco did. LeBron would win ZERO rings with Pau Gasol as his running mate; and ZERO rings with Pippen (nowhere near as great on offense as Wade or Kyrie).
You’re wrong. Now lebron going to la with Kobe ? That would’ve gotten them 3-4 straight. They’d both be at 6 or more rings today and we’d know them as potentially the best duo ever.
Kobe Bean Bryant would would smoke Klay like a blunt! For real. He's got a combination of skill and footwork that Klay hasn't seen since, well, Kobe retired. I'm obviously biased, but I think the Lakers would beat them in five! In any event great video! Like I said you make some of my favorite Kobe videos.
Dude you need to cover Shaq and how he rewrites history after Kobe died and now after the death of Bill Walton. Also if you haven’t touched up on LeBron saying the Miami heat wasn’t a super team and that Eric Spo was his favorite and smartest coach lmao
Nothing but hard hitting facts, this was a powerful video. Shaqs been swept too many times to even be mentioned with Kobe. Both Laker dynasties Kobe was on had no bench or a supporting cast really; Those teams were a testament to Kobes determination in my eyes
@@chauvintookaknee4blm268 klay played well defensively, however there were better defenders than him. He was a borderline all defensive level player before his injury. When you have players like dray and iggy guarding and switching on and off top level perimeter players, its hard to really see his defensive impact. You said it best. The system was top notch. I still think klay was a good individual defender though.
If DrayPlumber and Kendrick Perkins put their heads together they just might be able to scrape together enough brain cells to operate the cash register at a 7/11.

It's a long story. But David stern decided that we needed to move on from kobe to lebron in 2010. Has to do with Colorado case

I agree. Draymond Green is like Gilbert Arenas, neither should be taken seriously.
klay thompson ain’t guarding shit 😭
None of these players today could stop anyone from the 90's and 2000's-2010's
The warriors aren’t getting past the Chris Weber Kings
Doug Christie was a better defender than Klay and even he couldn't stop Kobe.
Klay Thompson made one All-Defensive 2nd team selection. How was he going to stop Kobe?🤣🤣
Fisher and Harper would have played full court press on Steph.
Kobe is guarding Klay. So no open shots for him.
Grant and Horry would have no problem with Draymond.
Shaq would be Shaq.
Damn , Harper still play during that time?
1. All defensive selections are valuable but i would like to argue that tayshaun prince who guarded kobe wasn't voted to all defensive team until 04-05. So even though klay wasn't voted to one until 17-18, klay could probably hold his own (It would be damn near impossible so the defensive schemes will have to be on point).
2. Derek fisher would be eaten alive by curry. Ron harper was 37.
3. robert horry was a very good role player, but iggy can def handle him. horace grant would be locked by draymond. Also, this is 35 year old Horace not a prime horace.
4. Shaq will be shaq and it would be tough trying to keep him out of the post.
@@21Kolb that's fair. I'm not saying Fisher and Harper will lock down Steph, however, by playing full court press which no one does these days, he's not going to get those wide open shots that he gets. Will he hit yes, but there will be a few misses and Shaq will be there to grab the rebound.
I'm not counting on Horry nor Grant to be big time scorers. I'm saying they'll stop Green. Draymond is effective in the GSW system. However that man can do little to nothing on his own. He's proven time again to be Mr triple single without Klay and Steph.
Draymond would help out with Shaq so someone is going to be open to shoot 3s, be it Horry, Fox, Fisher, Shaw, or heaven forbid it's when they had Rice on the team. He'd have a field day.
Kobe in his prime had to be guarded by all-league defensive level players, like Doug Christie, Shane Battier, Bruce Bowen, Raja Bell, Tony Allen, Ruban Patterson and Shawn Marion, and almost routinely COOKED every last one of them. EVERY ONE OF THOSE GUYS I JUST NAMED WERE AT LEAST AS GOOD A PERIMETER DEFENDER AS KLAY THOMPSON. See this is why I hate athletes/former athletes interviewing athletes/former athletes. Any serious and knowledgeable interviewer would have easily refuted and challenged Draymond‘s goofy and flawed takes.

That is a great point to bring up. Everyone likes to talk about how Kobe had Shaq, but it's almost never brought up that Shaq has always had some pairing with an elite guard/forward.
Similarly, I've long since thought Klay Thompson was overrated and was only propped up to make it seem like LeBron faced tougher opponents than he actually did. Suggesting that Klay could guard Kobe just further proves that point. It's laughable.

Being a Jordan fan, I absolutely hated the lakers and the threat they posed to winning more than the bulls. I especially hated Kobe because of this and pulled against him his entire career.

I’ve had to be honest with myself after listening to Skap’s arguments about Kobe and I find myself unable to disagree. Dude really was that guy.

@@BBallGOAT Nah, most of the LeBron stans (u) are just afraid that most ACTUAL NBA players pick Kobe over Bron and that most casual fans STILL pick Kobe over LeBron when they actually do any real scientific polling (I did one as a college project on campus in Virginia and Kobe won by a landslide even with Prime LeBron).
Most MJ fans have Kobe ahead of LeBron because Kobe most exemplifies the virtues they admire most in MJ, and for the fact Kobe's the closest thing to MJ in terms of skill, fundamentals, will-power, toughness, hoops IQ, and RINGS (he and mj are the only two players to three peat while making all nba teams AND all-nba DEFENSE teams for all 3 rings, the ONLY TWO PLAYERS).
Most players think Kobes better; most fans think Kobe's better. Only LeBron stans think Lebron is better than either (and the analytics nerds who invented PER to artificially prop him up and his penchant for racking up easy uncontested defensive rebounds). No ACTUAL fans who are genuine basketball fans have LeBron over Kobe. I love the fact Jokic is blowing LeBron away in all the advanced efficiency metrics so by the very criteria the Bronsexuals lie and CLAIM Lebron is greater than Kobe, Jokic, by the EXACT same criteria, is FAR greater than LeBron.
Gervonta Davis said it best: "Anybody who got Lebron over Kobe is out of they cotton-picking mind."
Facts. He spoke for the culture. Go to any hood. Go ask. Kobe destroys Bron. ITS WHY YOU GUYS ARE ALWAYS ON THESE CHANNELS. Kobe and MJ Fans don't go to LeBron channels because the guy is boring af to watch. No skill. Travels religiosly. Clunky jumper. Meh passing. BAD handles. Lots of uncalled carrying and pushoffs. There is no need to PROSELYTYZE on LeBalco channels because the real ones already know. Its Bron fans that simp for favor in the comments section because they know he's a media creation and ACTUAL people aren't drinking the kool-aid. Skap's channel is growing at a rate that, by this time next year, it will be VERY apparent that more people dislike LeBron more than any of the other greats. And this is despite the media fawning all over him daily.
LeBron isn't a top 10 player. His fanbase is merely symptomatic of the need to mandate REAL IQ tests for participation in these discussions. Lowest IQ bunch. Explain LeBron's #1 ALL TIME LEAD IN TURNOVERS by more than 500! That's next level bad basketball. That's poor hoops IQ. A turnover is the worst play in basketball. Full stop.
LeBrons ONLY case over Kobe is MVPS (voted on, politics) and SOME stats which, in a vacuum, is completely meaningless.
The guy is not a better player than Kobe Bryant, anybody with eyes and/or an IQ over 110 can see this.
I'm never met a high IQ person who thought LeBron was better than Kobe. And no amount of empty stat-padding (a la Westbrook) is going to change that.
Luka will end his career with better per game averages ACROSS THE BOARD than LeBalco (who definitely takes EPO, shout out to Chael Sonnen), and Jokic has already passed LeBalco in PER (AD is going to pass LeBalco in PER too).
Jokic has BETTER EFFICIENCY STATS than LeBalco and a ring with LESS help than any of LeBalco. LeBalco has less rings than Kobe but LeBalco stans have to pretend like empty stat-padding is more important than carrying your team to rings, so by their logic: Jokic > LeBalco; Luka > LeBalco.
Better STATS.
See Bron stans? The stats argument is a double-edged sword. Win. Winning is where GOAT debates begin and end.
LeBalco fans think going 1-8 vs KD Warriors but averaging 33 ppg while winning 1 game in 9 attempts is 'GOAT' behavior lol. The only tactic LeBalco stans have is to OVER-EXAGGERATE and OVERRATE the level of competition LeBalco faced in the Finals to justify while all of his empty stats didnt lead to any winning.
KD Warriors almost lost to Harden Rockets (went to game 7, with an INJURED CHRIS PAUL, and the Warriors only won game 7 by single digits despite Houston MISSING a franchise record 27 threes). IF Cp3 was healthy, Houston beats the KD Warriors in 7. They almost beat them WITHOUT CP3 (who, since Bronsexuals love stats so much, btw has a higher CAREER VORP than Magic Johnson - so CP3 > Magic 'bEcAuSe oF sTatS").
LeBalco went 1-8 against the same team Harden almost BEAT SINGLEHANDEDLY: 3-4 > 1-8. Harden had LESS help than LeBalco did.
LeBron would win ZERO rings with Pau Gasol as his running mate; and ZERO rings with Pippen (nowhere near as great on offense as Wade or Kyrie).
I'd bet any amount of money that I have a higher "IQ" than Lebron James.

This bullshit about Lebron's IQ has to stop. The player with the most turnovers all time, with a subpar ast/to ratio.
He is not a good decision maker, this lie has to stop.
I dont dislike draymond for this, as wrong as he is. He's just trying to big up one of his teammates. Like, he's obviously 100% wrong, but he's just trying to give props and boost confidence in a teammate.
To be fair, the 2002 Lakers did not legitimately win that ring, they lost to the Kings in the WCF!
If that's true to be fair you missing like 18 other seasons where the winners legit lose. But your just a loser
Only game six of the series had questionable calls because they wanted to extend it to seven games. The Kings lost game seven all on their own. I’m tired of the revisionist history and people saying that the series was rigged. It wasn’t.
@@facelessandnameless buddy, game 6 was the end of the series, and that game was 100% verifiably rigged, testified in court by Tim Donaghy! As a teenager I was watching that game hoping the Lakers would win but being disgusted with how blatantly rigged that game was. Where were you watching game 6 in 2002?
@@hakeemolajuwon4352 So Horry didn't hit the shot? Was that rigged? If Horry misses then they lose, and then you wouldnt call it rigged.
Lol.
@@feynmanschwingere_mc2270 that doesn't erase what the refs were doing in that game for the Lakers to even be that close or Tim Donaghy's testimony. That's just one of the series that were listed in rigged NBA playoffs so deal with it. Big Shot Bob is a legend and everybody knows that if the game is close and Horry is out there, the chances of you losing by a buzzer beater are significantly higher, refs made it to where the game was close so Horry could be Horry
