17 Year Old Kobe Bryant's 1st Pro Game as a Los Angeles Laker (www.thebasketballchannel.net)

[luvxbum15]

KOBE BRYANT IS THE MICHAEL JORDAN OF THIS ERA" DENNIS RODMAN SAID!

[Ronsam2006]

Wonder what that guy at the end was telling him...."you are gonna go far in the league.....MAMBA"

[qwerty12400]

6:36 The Mamba gets ready to strike

[qwerty12400]

Those are badass referee uniforms

[koreamoku]

The beginning of the Kobe D Fish bond.

[freshfade28]

Whats amazing is that he worked hard at a lot of the same moves and shots he's missed and now does them with ease

[YungLean87]

and thus begins the transformation into the Black Mamba!

[streethustla24]

kobe had better game when he was 17 than lebron at his prime.

[BrentonAkoname]

the way he shoots never changed

[BrentWilliams710]

Okay it's summer league nevermind

[BrentWilliams710]

Why is he wearing 32?

[BlazerWaves]

@BrentWilliams710 why is 710?

[trashface23]

this makes you think how old derrick fisher is 

[kb1329]

@trashface23 just a few older than kobe

ur not a laker fan are u??

[cease1991]

While Kobe has the ball: Dont be too hard on him He's a kid.

After he makes the shot: You cant D up a kid?!? LOL

[drummerdude403]

TIP FOR PEOPLE WATCHING THIS: skip 20 seconds every time you see free throws

[livinfoechrist]

every time i fast forward it to see something cool i see kobe shooting free throws

[IXxOmen2xXI]

Its amazing how much they DONT double team him.

[Markusepoiss]

this is where it all began...

[quandercom]

KOBE FANS, TAKE NOTE This was Kobe Bryant's first "pro" game as a Los Angeles Laker in the 1996 Los Angeles Summer Pro League at Cal State Long Beach. The day before, his parents Joe and Pam signed his first pro contract (as he was only 17) and actually played his first game the next day with Derek Fisher, George Lynch, David Booth and others under then asst. coach Larry Drew. Just a couple weeks earlier he went to his Senior Prom with singer Brandy. He told me he had butterflies in his stomach!

[jhofay]

wow, both fisher and kobe play the exact same way today

[KhmerSupaSoka]

....All I see us free throws lmao

[TheIwanaloveyou]

Kobe is $hit Compare \\//\\//ith Michael Jordan he'z the one who make U fall in luv with Basketball MJ<<<

[alcoholicsemenspill9]

[johhnnyboy101]

[Jjsoft34]

[05sred]

[24daonenonly]

[joshuagigglesdewitt]

17 year old nba player

[MrKostaPL]

i thought Magic's number 32 jersey was retired by the Lakers a few years before that game. it's a summer league or sth?

[CorruptionDivine]

@MrKostaPL it was a summer game .

[24daonenonly]

@MrKostaPL during the summer league games it doesnt matter its like a whole different league

[MrKostaPL]

@24daonenonly thanks for answer, now i will know :) so kobe chose good number ;D

[knockout82254]

[mrceltics4444]

[NealRandhawa5]

My Left Ear Loved this!

[MRDoom747]

I was watching the Kobe High School Interview. My left ear was lonely. Now I Watch this and my right ear is lonely! :(

[MrSlickNinja]

Who would've known that D-fish and Kobe that played with each other in 96 would still be playing with each other in 2012. Wow. Just amazing.

[chikenfriedricey]

[hemorrmage]

@confidence44 there's this amazing device called a razer, look it up

[dmdpro5]

@confidence44 its called a razor in the 90s it was a style in the black community to be blad becuase of when micheal jordan went bald it cheanged back when allen iverson started wearing cornrows

[Sportsgamer92]

@confidence44, he used to shave his head. Then he grew a fro and then cut it off. Now he keeps a fade.

[ZoomZip]

wow he is still doing that leg kick lol

[mikehigginsmusic]

Them refs loo gay as hell lol

[alexwiley12]

damn he was skinny

[JCruz5987]

The crazy thing was when I watched this video was that I was seeing the same Kobe as I'm seeing now :)

[35IsBeast]

he may be a ball hog, but he is damn good at it

[TheBoiFlip]

dang he was a ball hog from day 1.

[fishflow200]

kobe averages more assits per game than jordan did.

[jbanaag21]

He's so selfish on this game, he doesn't want to pass. hehe

[wannabeserpento99]

@jbanaag21 you see his scores, not passes

[jbanaag21]

@wannabeserpento99 I'm just pointing out something I observed most. Seeing him score is not a question.

[zmeicorp]

[dkellebrew]

its gotta be the lakers!!!! only one shooting is kobe!!!! lol

[layt0nb0yo7]

This isn't even the lakers

[Undashinq]

@layt0nb0yo7 yeah, thats probably why they're saying "Kobe Bryant will shoot two for the LAKERS" as he gets fouled. Dumbass.

[connorhall70]

@layt0nb0yo7 thats why on the first free throw he ses 'he will shoot 2 for the lakers' you fat dumbass

[marioiscoolism]

ha the ref looks like a midget compared to kobe bryant ha all i learned from this video is that kobe is a good free throw shooter lol.

[esTebanLRD]

@akramchebli a retired player

[avanpeltno2fan]

@esTebanLRD A very selfish player, w/ 5 championship rings.

[esTebanLRD]

@avanpeltno2fan shaq 3 and pau odom bynum 2

[avanpeltno2fan]

@esTebanLRD If you mean that, you have reached a level of haterism, unprecedented by any other human being, ever.

[daXkrazyKILLA]

@esTebanLRD im gettin tired of all these ppl sayin dat kobe got rings coz of shaq,bynum and pau u lot expectkobe to win a ring by hisself please look at lebron he went to heat coz he needs help watch when lebron wins ppl gonna be like dwayne wade and chris bosh help him u lot r just haters i dont support just 1 player but like 5 -6 so my opinion is less bias so stop chattin shit if u was in bryants position or lebron or anyone 4 instance let me see u win by urself

[esTebanLRD]

@daXkrazyKILLA @JCruz5987 @avanpeltno2fan shaq and lakers with jamaal mashburn or jamaal crawford, mitch richmond or another guard=rings, shaq won the rings, and Lakers withouth shaq= no playoffs and super selfish kobe, nba changed rules, 81 points?yes versus the worst team in nba and other rules, Kobe never dominate games need super big mans,odom, bynum and gasol, Gasol was with garnett and duncan the best in his position, I´m sorry Kobe is a good selfish player, no more...

[imdman24]

@esTebanLRD seems that you don't know what you're talkin about... haha!!!! you're a pure hater! Ain't got no point, just hatin... Haha! Selfish = 0 assists... So what is Kobe's assist ave??? Come on stop the hatin and start some lovin.. We got no choice Kobe is far more great than anyone who's active now...

[musicmantoby]

@imdman24 Selfish does not = 0 assists you idiot, what the fuck. You are simply retarded. Literally so so so so so dumb, I can't even fathom or appreciate the level to which you are devoid of conscious thought or reason.

[Maharoba]

@esTebanLRD

top 25 assists every year.. eat a dick dipshit

[TrEyT4]

i feel like the stands only have like 200 people in them..

[MrMicdsrams]

[BabyPholol]

LMAO d fish...

[micrphone0213]

My right ear enjoyed this.

[zvucnjak]

@micrphone0213 you got your headphones the wrong way :)))))

[ram98872]

this little skinny kid sucks. theres no way hes gonna have a future in the NBA

[AdogFSSB]

@ram98872 Sarcasm or are you just an idiot?

[ram98872]

@AdogFSSB sarcasm and humor haha

[wannabeserpento99]

@AdogFSSB lol tard

[nuknuknuk111]

@ram98872 next time you borrow the delorean , buy an almanac then u wont make such a ridiculous evaluation

[ram98872]

@nuknuknuk111 U mad bro? its a joke

[nuknuknuk111]

@ram98872 no, im just giving u sum word of advice

[TheLakersfan2424]

@ram98872 I believe you don't know who Kobe Bryant is then

[pesto801]

@TheLakersfan2424 he's joking

[TheLakersfan2424]

@pesto801 lol my bad

[TheBoon24]

@TheLakersfan2424 he was kidding

[TheLakersfan2424]

@TheBoon24 lol my bad

[davidzlobinskiy]

@ram98872 Dude WTF? I guess you don't have a future and a life, so find one. Look at Kobe now, he's the best player in the NBA.

[thegxcninja]

@davidzlobinskiy you must be retarded if you thought he was being serious... Dumb ass.

[sentinel9100]

@davidzlobinskiy you sir are retarded

[ram98872]

@davidzlobinskiy Looks like someone doesnt have humor

[ruckaisawesome]

@davidzlobinskiy

somebody don't get sarcasm...

[wornoutshoes11]

@davidzlobinskiy best player in the NBA? LOL since when? no really... SINCE WHEN?!!! since the nba started pimping him? since the media/espn bestowed upon him the so called mantle of being the poster boy of the league? LOL cmon now son let's get real...

when MJ left the true poster boys were SHAQ and the not so famous DUNCAN and NOW its lebron! never was kobe... neverrrr! never he became the best player even during his prime! LOL now thats the truth... reality bites!

[DatGuyFromWendys]

@wornoutshoes11 Kobe's the best :D

[MrDahizzy]

@wornoutshoes11 Obviously, Kobe was never the best. Shaq, Duncan, and Lebron must have won more championships than Kobe. Oh wait, I forgot Kobe has 5 rings to Shaq's 4 rings and Duncan's 4 rings. Lebron has to be the best because he has 0 rings. (sarcasm)

[rminitials]

@davidzlobinskiy

David you're a dumbass.

[Gr33d50]

17 is absurd, kobe bryant is god.

[ketchyshubby]

Good job Kobe BRANT! Lmao at the announcer

[stanzre]

Like my status

[MrRickyturbo]

Kobe's my idol but man even then he was such a ball hog!

[LoveNLoot]

andi was thinkking he might miss hisfirst shot....nope!

[eliazzortega]

how many points did he score?

[BlwiiNaviTits]

@eliazzortega the description is there for a reason

[AdogFSSB]

@eliazzortega 27

[sulaman600]

0:05 Dayumm

[flyfishingboy]

YOO!!! Haterzzg watch d-rose or some one else unless u probably took an arrow to the knee while watchin this

[dyoon16]

It still amazes me how much he worked on his jump shot. It looked really awkward before because he released his shot so early. Now his shot is silky smooth

[TheVillainOfVirginia]

kobe had mad handles as a rookie but he was missing everything...its all good though cuz hes tha king

[kto511]

and my right ear forever alone

[kto511]

my right ear forever alone

[molpr]

@RandomPedestrian63 ...you're an idiot.....

[RandomPedestrian63]

@molpr why?

[TheRafaelBond]

anybody has his first nba game?

[didemma19]

hahah, those refs!!!

[angalos1]

47 dislikes???? i got some spare glasses if u need em

[fullermrff]

do you have his first regulation game, or where I can get it???

[Uughy]

0 Assists .... I guess he never passed the ball!!

[timisyourfriend]

@Uughy Black Mambas do not have hands to pass to that of primates. Their only move is to kill.

[muskmarini]

lol at refs clothes

[MeYoda23]

when was he 32

[Straaatonn]

@MeYoda23 it was the summer league

[PLUMPAWESOME]

its so quiet that i can actually here the ball being dribbled... its so quiet...

[habenerow9]

kobe is the best lol xD

[MrDbigballs]

@habenerow9 Uhhhh not you are gravely mistaken you know nothing punk. MJ is the GOAT. Kobe is a punk errand boy who gets more ass kissing and coverage on ESPN

[habenerow9]

@MrDbigballs no im not mistaken kobe is a great bball player. its an opinion so im not a punk. kobe is not a punk just cus hes soo good, that coverage was earned
