We should all feel blessed to have witnessed this man play the game of basketball .

Byron Scott (the guy sitting with the Mamba) loved Kobe so much that he ended up as his final coach. Too bad it was such a forgettable tenure. At least there was a time where his talent analysis was spot-on.

To hear Chick Hearn call those games is nostalgic!

Now I sit here and tell myself, before you came a long.. my mentality was already on attack mode and if injured, still go out there and kick ass.. You came into our lives and that mentality became...MAMBA MENTALITY.... were you came from, the color of skin, the money you made and you being a celebrity.. that didn't matter one bit..

As a longtime Laker fan! Kobe, your tenacity and love for the game of basketball provided me some of the greatest moments I've ever seen..... Thanks to you, Shaq, Gasol and rest of the incredible players to wear a Laker Jersey.

The best this about watching this video is seeing how many other great players Kobe went up against at 18 years of age and held his own (Jordan, Hornacek, Stocken, Pippen, Robertson etc.) Kobe was from a different area of basketball that he carried in the 21th century and that's what helped him become a legend....It's not about how many fights you had in life that turns you into a true champion but it's about who you fought in life that turns you into a true champion....R.I.P Great # 8 and thanks for the wonderful moments you provided me throughout high school and college bro!!!

KOBE. There was nothing like watching him play live in his early NBA days- man, he was lightening quick, explosive and fast and smooth and brilliant!! He was extremely intelligent (of course)-- way beyond his years that was largely unappreciated by some of his peers early on due to petty jealousies. But Byron Scott knew... he knew.

This comment right here tells me you didn't actually see Kobe's rookie year. He played behind Eddie Jones, whom at the time was an all-star. Robert Horry and Jerome Kersey occupied the SF so he couldn't spot any valuable playing time there either. Del Harris even played him at PG during parts of the season to give him some run time. Kobe averaged about 15 mpg during his rookie campaign. Brandon Ingram averaged close to 30 mins last year and averaged 9 points. No argument at all.
