This stretch by Kobe was insane
2006: 35.4 PPG | 1st Team All-Defense
2007: 31.6 PPG | 1st Team All-Defense
2008: 28.3 PPG | 1st Team All-Defense
2009: 26.8 PPG | 1st Team All-Defense
2010: 27 PPG | 1st Team All-Defense
2011: 25.3 PPG | 1st Team All-Defense
Was elite on both ends of the court.
And the revisionist said otherwise. Not Tim Duncan and not Shaq
The 2000s belonged to Kobe Bryant, and nobody else came close 🐍
From the turn of the millennium to the end of the decade, Kobe dictated its entire narrative.
Look at the resume from 2000 to 2009:
Three-peat champion (2000–2002) alongside Shaq.
81 points in a single game.
35.4 PPG in 2005-06, and back-to-back scoring titles.
2008 Regular Season MVP and leading Redeem Team USA to Olympic Gold in Beijing.
Back-to-back Finals appearances, capping the decade with the 2009 NBA Championship and Finals MVP without Shaq.
Different rosters, different roles, different co-stars, but the exact same result.
Kobe was the heartbeat of basketball for years.
Where does Kobe’s 2000s run rank among the most dominant decades in NBA history? 🤔

Bob Myers talking about Kobe Bryant
Basically Myers is saying Kobe is the greatest player ever and Jordan is up there with him
Bob Myers says …..
“You can rank guys however you want and maybe Michael Jordan was that way, but that’s it! It’s not a knock on anyone else that’s played, but it’s a different thing”
Bob Myers is one of the smartest basketball brains out there
Even he knows it’s Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan, then a mile down the road is the rest.
There’s one table that’s only Kobe and MJ … no one else has a chair on that table … 🤷🏼♂️

Don Nelson on Kobe Bryant in 2009:
"Kobe now has a grasp on the game like no other player, and he controls it when he wants to. He makes the players alongside him succeed, and he is a real leader out there."
"He has the whole package going for him. He is not just the best player in the league but probably the best leader."

Kobe Bryant took care of everything when Tim Thomas was in need 🫡
After Tim and his family evacuated during the California wildfires, Bean made sure he wouldn’t spend a DOLLAR in Newport Beach for two weeks.
That was Kobe 🐍

Spurs coach Gregg Popovich and Kings coach Rick Adelman on trying to stop 23-year-old Kobe Bryant late in games during the 2002 playoffs:
Popovich:
"The guy is unbelievable. Though I hate to compare people, he's real similar to Michael in his makeup. The guy really feeds off situations. He feeds off crowds. He feeds off deficits in the score. He feeds off somebody being on him, somebody trying to guard him."
Adelman:
"Kobe is the toughest player in the league down the stretch. He's got that striving in him that you just can't teach. Everybody knows it, but you can't do anything about it. He's as close to Michael as you can get without all of Michael's experience."

Ohh look Dwayne Wade calling Kobe one of greatest….
“If you played against Kob, you have him in your top 3, people who haven’t touched a ball aka Fathorse and Dick Wright will say he’s out of the top 3”
Ex NBA players always have Kobe as one of the greatest, if not theeeeee greatest…..
But you got causals on X going up against what their own goat LeBron said
Kobe was the best player ….
Always remember … Dwayne Wade and LeBron James teamed up to win championships like Kobe …. Wade said that, not me 🤷🏼♂️
Bronsexuals can't accept this that their idol is always a quitter and can't win without superstar
The Lebron James TEAM HOPPING narrative always get co-opted by Kobe Bryant requesting a trade. There is a big difference between a 4 time divorcee and a spouse that threatened to leave once. #nba #lebronjames #kobebryant
Story of what ? Creating super team, trading all your younger players sao you can get another star or getting swept multiple times in the playoffs??
LeBron's story is greater than Kobe's, and that's what bothers so many Kobe fans.
Kobe was voted an All-Star while coming off the bench on a Lakers team loaded with All-Stars. Even at the time, many people viewed that selection as more about popularity than performance.
A lot of Jordan loyalists were searching for the next Jordan, and Kobe became the player they rallied behind.
Shaquille O’Neal says the Lakers could have won seven championships if he had taken less money instead of insisting on a $150 million contract after Kobe Bryant became the franchise player
“If I had the wisdom I have now back then… seven.”
“The reason I got traded wasn’t about me and Kobe beefing.”
“They wanted me to take less money.”
“Kobe said at least 10.”
“I had money.”
“I should have been like, ‘Alright, I raised you enough. It’s your team now.’”
“I was still gonna do my 28 and 10.”
“But I was like, ‘Nah, I want $150 million. I don’t care what you like.’”
“If I had it all over again, I probably would’ve had a meeting with the family.”
“Do y’all want me to take less money, take a lesser role, and stay here?”
“My ego got me what I wanted.”
“I still went to Miami, partnered with D-Wade, and still won one.”
“But I would have liked to have stayed there the rest of my career.”
Bronsexuals gonna cry again about this because the media is the only one that can agree with them. 😂😂

Former Sixer Andres Nocioni says LeBron James doesn’t have the same killer mentality as Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan
“Kobe Bryant would kill you, he was a serial killer, very competitive. I imagine he must have been the closest thing to Jordan in that mindset, because I played against LeBron James. LeBron seems to me to be top two, top three in the NBA, one of the best, but I don't know if he has what Kobe and Jordan had. They were serial killers, a certain mindset. And I think LeBron is a total star, but I don't know if he has that killer mentality.”

Klutch and bronsexuals gonna explode about this. 🤣🤣
Tony Allen calls out LeBron James, saying players hunted him on defense and his only great defensive plays were chase-down blocks.
“All you did was a couple chase down blocks a game. Name somebody that he had to lock up and get the win”
