Kobe breaking the offense to have a chance at creating a spark in his teams offense was their strategy at maybe creating a chance to turn the game around. It just doesn't always work out but it's the game plan. Problem is they fell behind quicker than usual so they had to resort to more energy intensive measures with their best player at an earlier point than usual to have a chance at some of it rubbing off on the other Lakers during the game. Morale is a huge factor and the only way to raise it when your down by 20 in the 3rd is to make something spicy happen. We all know how spicy Kobe could get. RIP Mamba

the media was trying to bait him to

I love this video, and I still come back to it every now and then. Kobe was a pro of the highest caliber possible. When he was winning, he gave his teammates their flowers, and when the Lakers lost, Kobe took responsibility, even if it wasn’t on him. When his teammates fell short, Kobe would say that he had to lead them better. That’s a true champion and competitor. The Lakers for 2 decades were a reflection of Kobe and I am glad that I witnessed his career from the very start to its conclusion. Retirement should have been the beginning of something beautiful, but it wasn’t meant to last unfortunately. We all have our own expiration date, and most of us don’t have the curse or privilege of knowing when it will come. It still hurts to think about the day we lost such a legend, and family man.

Accountability: why LeBron isn’t the GOAT and Kobe was one of an elite few.

Kobe took a loaded question, that was misconstrued for controversy, and just gracefully shut it down.

Of course there a plenty of players today that would still take criticism positively, same way some players in the 90s, 00s would have been divas about it The difference is objectively we are in the social media age, everything gets taken out of context and reiterated everyday on tv shows, people’s achievements are constantly minimised etc You can have mentally tough players succumbing because of false rumours, edited soundbites and narratives Here’s another example, Kerr said he had more fun coaching the 2020 Warrriors than the 19 Warriors because of the outside pressure (injuries, expectations, etc) The media spun it acting like Kerr didn’t like coaching KD and KD got annoyed because of something taken out of context So my point is because of the era, coaches literally have to watch what they say about their players. And more players are being criticised since they’re teenagers (Bronny, Mikey, Emoni) they’re obviously gonna be more sensitive on average than someone from MJs era 90s, 00s players literally barely get criticism from anyone, imagine Shaqs sensitive ass in 2020 and what the media would say about him So stop getting offended acting like I’m calling older players “tougher”. They didn’t have to deal with the bs of today’s game, which leads you players being more defensive/sensitive If you disagree that’s cool, but hop off my dick when I wasn’t even addressing you, thanks man 👌

Thank you for forgiving her too, for rooting around in your Hallmark bag. I’m sure Vanessa loved that killer Valentines Day card you got for her in 07. RIP brother.... The NBA, just isn’t the same.

Great response..

I don't know if the Lakers lost this game but... If Kobe wouldn't have takent he game "in his hands" in the 4th - everyone would be giving him a hard time saying: "Well... where was Kobe? He's meant to be our leader. He's the highest paid player on the team. He's the face of the franchise and he only took 2 shots when we're down 20 in the 4th?" People always find reason to give people shxt... if Kobe takes over in the 4th and he hits the game winning shot bringing them back from 20 or 15 or whatever - everyone riding his dxck... when he tries it and it fails... they say he should've passed. Make up your damn minds.

Christian Schaefer But you're talking about the difference between the perspective of a professional coach, and a casual fan that knows next to nothing about the game. He should be doing what's best to put his team in a position to win, regardless of the fan reaction, if that means following the game plan that his coach put out, that's what he should do. Unless you're saying Kobe knows better than pjax of course...?

My mans always had the best response for every question, always spoke facts! Never wanted to take the L, wanted to win, win, and win! No matter what! RIP KOBE! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

Kobe was so smart aside from his physical gifts. There won’t ever be another player like him. Rip Mamba. 🟡🟣

Such a stark comparison to today's top stars who push the blame. People often blame Kobe for not being a great leader. However, in this instance, he tried to push and get his guys going at the cost of his energy, hoping and believing it would get them going. Although it ended in a loss, Kobe owned it. Unless players adopt his perspective and attitude on the game, the NBA will never be as great as it once was.

Mutual respect for the game from both sides 💯
