This Kobe is the most skilled and arguably the best player of all time

[holzman]

I consider this to be Kobe’s prime. I know that he wasn’t as athletic as he was before, but here he had the perfect mix of skill, poise, and agility to make him the best player in the league. Still can’t believe he’s gone.

This season was Kobe when he showed that he can win a ring without Shaq. One of my fav Kobe season. RiP 🙏🏾

[Maxjuliann]

Kobe had handle but he didn’t need to do fancy moves to score . Everything he did was tactical, quick highly effective moves .
Great scorer that didn’t need much room
Excellent defender that wasn’t afraid to guard the best player .
Bro was just a different breed 😤

It's crazy how people can say they love basketball or watching highest level competition but don't like if not hate a guy like Kobe. Dude went out and COMPETED, performed and played his butt off night after freaking night. Man played injured, played on BOTH ends, didn't LOAD MANAGE, didn't cheat the fans or TV viewing audience. He would have played all 82 games if his body held up. He wasn't perfect or flawless by any stretch but that man earned every right to be on any competent individual's all-time great player list.

forget the stats and accolades when u watch this guy play there's never been anyone this good besides mj

[piotrekzprod]

More than an hour of Kobe's highlights! Sheeesh Max thank you

[Ellis]

I’ve said this a million times and I will say it again. Kobe is the GOAT!

[fad]

He turned basketball into an art form.

[MrLandU]

They don’t make em like this anymore. So blessed to watch Kobe all them years growing up

[jovandisnuke]

Every year I purchased a ticket months in advance to see him play, whenever he came to Charlotte (who were Bobcats back then) he never sat; never showed up to rest or look cute on the bench with his jewelry & what not. He came to play & most of the time put on a show in front of his idol (Mike). God blessed me to witness my GOAT perform in real time. 🙏 Rest easy your legacy will never die

[mugiwaratrii]

Kobe literally mastered every single thing in the book of "Fundamentals of basketball". His game is so effortless and majestic. He's the type of player people will analyze 50-100 years from now. An absolute killer scoring phenom.

[Shemzinho]

Kobe’s best season. He was on a different level mentally. That playoff run was ridiculous

[genericallyaccepted]

I think its so incredible that Kobe was an all-timer without really being more athletic than everyone else. He's not blowing by defenders, he's getting inches, sometimes less, and still making plays. Did he miss a lot? Haha, hell yeah he did, as a Laker fan he was incredibly frustrating, but I always trusted him. I honestly did think that every shot he took was going in lol. He was amazing.

[lessonsins]

Kobe is a legend, he had unbelievable skill. Rest in Peace Kobe. Forever In Our Hearts ❤

[samonthecreek]

The most skilled basketball player of all time. 1 on 1, give me Kobe 10 times outta 10. Idgaf about advanced analytics. I have never personally witnessed a basketball player better than Kobe Bryant and I have been watching basketball for over 25 years. He will guard your best player and cook your best player in the same game.

Kobe Bryant was the true definition of a Basketball Savant. He is the most technically proficient basketball player in NBA History. He could make any type of shot, finish at the rim, score in the low post over either shoulder, and his footwork was IMPECCABLE! His greatest attribute was his unparralled thirst to constantly update his database which allowed him to excel in multiple eras of the NBA. Combine all those ingredients with his intangibles such as his psychotic competive drive, fearlessness, leadership, will to play through injury is what made him an All-Time Great. R.I.P. To the LATE GREAT KOBE BEAN BRYANT.

[francewise]

The path kobe took to win was I think the hardest path on a superstar. Those 3 trips to the finals and winning 2 with only pau and good role players in the west was so special man. Kobe is tough man, really tough. No days off, took everything to win at all cost until his body cant take anymore. Barely seen a player like him in todays game. But I have high hopes on Ja morant. Kid was a killer reminds me of a young kobe.

[georgiosgrigoriadis]

Poetry in motion. This guy had the best skillset that i have ever seen in basketball. I'm not saying that he was the best of all time, but his skillset was almost perfect.

[patsnation]

*Arguably the most SKILLED basketball player ever.*
