They laughed at Kobe π
The joke was in the locker rooms. Kobe walked by. Look at him. He want to be like Michael Jordan. Look at him. He talk like Michael Jordan. Look at him. He stick his tongue out like Michael Jordan. And I never forget this. I’m in the locker room one day. Some of the guys in locker room hating on Kobe. He want to be like Mike. I said, “You guys are a bunch of stupid Y’all are sitting in the room laughing at a player who wants to be like Michael Jordan. He’s working his ass off. While you’re laughing, he’s in the gym trying to be as good, if not better, than the guy that we think is the greatest, Michael Jordan. What you should be doing is picking somebody like him who’s great and getting your act out this locker room and start working on your

Love coach Sam way to respect Kobe sir π«‘
Yup case closed π still tho fo realz glad to actually know you buddy and feel the same way and done it all the time like him tho to be like jordan/kobe combined tho so yeah.β€π
Kobe could've played basketball in any era.
I miss Kobe, and I really wish we got more podcasts and discussions with him today
The people who always laugh at people, especially for no reason, which is bullying are ALWAYS the ones who are jealous of someone else, also because there to lazy to get up and do something, like this guy said basically.
Real talk. Rip MAMBA.
But LeBron never want to be like nobody but his self that goat
Wonder if the joke was he raped a woman

I've been watching basketball for almost 40 years it's honestly insane that it is more likely that you will be a bust then a superstar because of this right here most athletes are only in it for the money not the greatness
Everyone (at least a little bit) wanted to be like mike. they just made fun of kobe cause he was the only one excelling at it and actually achieved it.
Yea i can see it the locker room was more mature at that time and would of seen someone wanting to be like someone else in this case like mike as childish kid like immature/weird but kobe entered the league @17
Thatβs why they hate Kobe cause he did everything we said he couldnβt , bitch made mofos always yappin bout Kobe
Who's the guy talking?
True. Facts. The truft π₯
Couldn't just be himself. Kinda sad.
They still disrespecting him to this day a bunch of stupid mfs Kobe Bryant is 2ND ALL TIME ππΎ the haters ππΎ Jeff teague ππΎ Tmac and Shaq ππΎ Stephen A and the bleacher report
We will never see another kobe bean Bryant, miss you bro, yoi gave me the best basketball memories I could ever possibly watch and remember ,watched you come out of HS ,watched the frustration of your rookie year not being played , those air balls in Utah, was the shit !!nobody wanted to take those shots..to do it and to air ball ,but then come back that next year dominating thats greatness .. Ain't no kid like this coming to the league soon ,maybe in 30 plus years if ever ,were talking about the ultimate offensive weapon, and can lock you down at the same time while still going at you ,talking shit ,being a killer ,I watched him live and on TV ,I fell in love with the game because of kobe , I seen jordan play ,I didnt see his young years but I did see the jump shot Mike, bad nothwr efer, but I dont think jordan had the shot kobe had, I dont believe mikes footwork was better , like ive said ,you cant put kobe and mj in the goat conversations because there on there own island or mountain of there own ,un touchable ,then you you have your mount Rushmore starting with lebron
DAMN RIGHT, KOBE WORKED FOR EVERYTHING AND EARNED THE RESPECT OF MJ'S AND MJ CONSIDERED KOBE HIS LITTLE BROTHERβ€πβοΈ
π―% FACTS!!! π all along was on a mission to be great and definitely succeeded!!! π mentality
One of the best Kobe stories ever. Told it all. GOAT 1b
He never cared about comparisons. Kobe just wanted to be the best version of himselfπ₯π
Joke on them π π π
The only reason why people hated on Kobe was he dribbled too much . If he would have worked in plays and took on the role as leader it would have served him better . He was after the legacy slightly unnatural .. but what could you expect after the age of MJ ..
Crabs in a bucket scenario. Kobe was to determined to be slowed down by that negative energy.
Nobody else had the guts to try to be that great.
Kobe developed his game more then I have ever seen in the NBA. From shooting multiple air balls at the end of the game to 5x champ and a mentality that all players strive for now. Kobe forever β€
looks like MJ himself coming off that Dunk with tongue outπ€·π½ββοΈI could be wrong butπ€·π½ββοΈai
Who would watch ball after mj if it wasn't for bean…not me!
My place oversaw the track that kobe used to run at. That man was always on the track working out before the freaking sun came out. Sometimes we would wake up early just to see him for a bit.
Sam Mitchell… Telling heads straight.
1b baby all the way
Scarf is needed for warriors
Its a shame I spent most of my basketball fandom hating on this guy, simply because I was a LeBron fan
Biggest what if was that 2010 season. Kobe vs LeBron would have been LEGENDARY
And we would have put up WAY more of a fight than Orlando did
2nd best player ever
These are the same people who laugh at guys like Tatum or JDub idolizing kobe just to hate but also calll them corny SMH
β€
Hold up but why a teen Kobe cooking John Stockton tho π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯
Goats π mj n Kobe
What did Michael Beasley sayβ¦ βyall laughing at me for going to talk to the bad bitch! I may not have got her [but at least she know my name]β
Something to that effect. Itβs always the cowards that criticize you going for glory
Kobe at age 23 had 3 titles and was the best scorer in the nba.
MJ was still in college π
Love me some kobe24mvp81
The melody playing in the background is called, βI Got 5 On Itβ by Luniz.
Preach it brother
Kobe admitted he learned a lot from Jordan. I donβt get how thatβs a negative tho if he still put in the work and is one of the goats.

everbody dont wanna be all that lol that takes 27 7 dedication some ppl wanna enjoy thier life a lil
When it comes to being the greatest in anything you do , itβs lonely at the top literally.. no one will be there to help you stay at the top. Itβs up to you as an individual to uphold what it takes to motivate yourself and the people who look up to you after it is all said and done. They can hate the best all they want but many will never do what it takes to be the best.
