Kobe “Bean” Bryant has had a long and illustrious career that when it’s over, will undoubtedly earn him a 1st ballot Hall of Fame entry, joining some of the great shooting guards in history like Michael Jordan, Jerry West, and Reggie Miller.
But even though he is now 35 years old and is coming off of the toughest offseason of his career, a rigorous rehab from a torn Achilles, I for one refuse to accept that the “Mamba” won’t make a full recovery, and regain his spot as a Top 5 shooting guard of all time.
Recently, Kobe’s been in the news for more than just his lengthy rehab as his ’63 Chevy Lowrider Impala sold for a cool $125,000 on Ebay.
But when looking back at Kobe’ s career, there are so many signature plays that we think of like most memorably that amazing 81 point game against the Raptors in 2006.
Or it could be the 3 consecutive NBA crowns he won alongside Shaquille O’Neal in the early 2000’s.
Maybe it was the night he single-handedly outscored the Dallas Mavericks 62-61 through 3 quarters back in 2005.
Then again, if you love the 3-ball, you’d have to love the night he tied an NBA record, draining 12 3 pointers against the then Seattle Supersonics back in 2003.
To sum things up, Kobe has made so many memorable plays, it’s hard to narrow them down to just a few, that why it’s remarkable that an ultimate Kobe Bryant fan spend countless hours putting together this awesome video, showing the Top 150 Plays in Kobe’s career, listed in chronological order…
