Gilbert Arenas crossover was special!

One of my favorite Kobe games. Really loved how Gilbert gave Kobe a challenge during the 2007 season.

It’s easy for Gilbert because he only has to worry about offensive, he didn’t have to guard Kobe. Kobe had to play offensive and guard Gilbert. That take so much energy. That’s how great Kobe was

Sorry, one more thing: Kobe didn't guard Arenas much in this game, and Arenas was 9-29, only 4 assists and 3 TO's. Lotta bricks. During Arenas' 60 point game earlier, Kobe only guarded him in the OT (and Arenas scored 15 points!). But in neither game did Arenas guard Kobe (only on switches, which were rare). Still, I've changed my mind about Arenas. Dude was on fire for 3 years.

Had to come see this 37 game again after Gil said on VladTV that this was his fav. game vs Kobe and not the 60 piece. This the one Kobe declared war on him before the game and Gil didn't no-show it, said it gained Kobe's respect.

Before the injury, Arenas was a scoring (not just shooting) machine. He could score in so many different ways. He brags about his 2nd to 6th NBA seasons yes, but what he brags about is true. From 2002-03 to 2006-07, he was really HIBACHI 🔥🍳. Yes, his stats in those 5 seasons (around 24 ppg and 6 apg) could compete with ANYBODY'S best 5-consecutive-seasons run in the modern era of the NBA.❤

Then again that could be every game, oh well we still love them and him. Kobe, Kobe, Kobe, Kobe, Kobe, yes, yes, yes, yes, it's Kobe Time. Hang on to your hats, everybody because Kobe is about to set the Arena off. We're loving it, like Mickey Dee.

After this game.. Kobe had no words..😂😂 just said every had no conscience.....That's how cold Gil was

arenas underrated

Being an avid Kobe/Laker fan, I appreciate this vid. I always thought Arenas was a loud mouthed-shoot first point guard, with MAD skills and elite quickness. And....he was! LOL.... but after looking at other Arenas vids and checking his stats,.... his stats during the 3 years with the Wizards (2004-07, before his major injury) actually compare to Kobe's stats in the same time. Arenas had 3-5 pts/game avg. fewer than Kobe, yes, but otherwise they were "almost" equal. Except Arenas was never known as a good/great defender, and he didn't do well keeping his teammates in the game, but then again, the Wiz had very few scorers on those teams (Antawn Jamison was solid 20 per). And Gilbert wasn't the killer and the winner like Kobe/MJ, but who was? So this vid changed my perception of Gilbert Arenas as a player. Thank you for posting this!

People talk bad about Gilbert because he was selfish yes because he was on bad team yes and because he had green light. With that said he was basically Harden without the theatrics and tricks, and against more physicality. Dude could ball. Respect his opinions, he was a real one.

AGENT 0 WAS FIRE 🔥

This happened 17 years ago today.

Here cause Gill was On Vlad

For 3 seasons (2005-07) Arenas had MONSTER years: 25.5, 29.3, 28.4 ppg. He was that one rare player on a poor team that was allowed to shoot as many times as he wanted to. However, is career fg% is bad (.406) and was only average 3 point shooter (33%). I don't like the comparisons to Kobe. Most importantly, he rarely guarded Kobe, whereas Kobe WANTED to guard Arenas (and did for a majority of plays). Arenas was more like Iverson (but only for 3 years), but Iverson averaged more assists. Arenas DEFINITELY stepped up to the challenge vs. Kobe, and wasn't afraid of him. For that, he gets props.

Gil was my favorite non-laker right next to Jermaine O'Neal. Hibachi!!! On a side note, how about that Vladimir Radmonovic call out right when the game started lmao.
