NBA All Star Game 1998 Part 1/12

[RichardURL]

80's 90's Where True Legends are born!!!!

[Econ1260MetZRoberto]

What the fuck!? at 2:12 Kobe is touching Mj's private parts and MJ slaps his hand? LMFAO

[tallman862713]

and western starting lineup is almost = lakers starting lineup in 03-04 season...

[tallman862713]

to me...penny was the next jordan b4 kobe appeared...but penny wasnt any close to mj...

[dkthg]

@tallman862713 penny was the next magic johnson.

[zmennine]

i wonder who is got to be next kobe bryant. or at least close.

[DoesNotExist305]

@zmennine Why be the next Kobe when we still haven't found the next Jordan?

[DANCEAHOLIK4]

@DoesNotExist305 .THERE WILL NEVER BE ANOTHER JORDAN,BUT KOBE IS THE BEST BELOW JORDAN.

[jrjy1023]

@DoesNotExist305 there will never be a next kobe or next jordan

[NallePu83]

@zmennine Kobe is ranked all time # 17

[thetimeless80]

if Jordan the greatest ever, Kobe must be the 2nd best ever. cause he's the closest to the next MJ. But jordan greatest ever hands down.

LOL at "he does have trouble finishing off the dribble though" - kobe

[oldmanwithers1]

didnt penny re-fuck his knee this game? what part is it in?

[FOT2010]

2:47 "Nobody has missed yet Bob..." Only fitting that Kobe chucks up a brick right after that LOL

[bestfriendArt]

thanks for the upload

[fugialla]

Thank you for posting all star game 1998 ! I just want to see !!

[juniorpong1]

Mutombo thought he was Kareem! lmao

[lightsw0rd]

Lol... Watch MJ 3:12

He almost fell

[abudianto]

don't u just love it when Jordan hits the first basket and then points to Kobe and say "I got Him" WE MISS YOU his ROYAL AIRNESS!

[art9schw]

Ah the days when Shaq could handle the ball, and make some jump shots

[Domini478]

@art9schw He didn't do that in the regular season games dumbass. Shaq always does this in all star games.

[naniel93]

I miss the old NBA from the 1980's and 1990's, where it was Magic vs. Bird vs. Jordan, Dominique vs. Jordan (including DUNK CONTESTS), Julius Erving (Dr. J), Clyde Drexler and Jerome Kersey, Drazen Petrovic (my favorite international player), Showtime Lakers, Detroit Pistons Bad Boys', Celtics Big 3, Stockton to Malone, Pippen and Jordan, Payton to Kemp, Miller's final 8 pts in 9 seconds vs. Knicks, Dennis Rodman's crazy hair styles, Jordan's flu game, and Jordan's 1998 NBA Finals Game 6.

[Kdogcentral5ables]

this is wen shaq was real real good

[bokomilcevski23]

michael jordan ZAKON

[KB89]

If only the Lakers had Payton and Malone at this point in their careers rather then the 2004 versions...

[jerry328i]

looks like they started early cus that place looks empty

[dcrudup02]

WOW! That hook shot by Mutumbo @5:47 has to be the WORST of all time...

[KILLASOL24]

Jut like baseball u cant say mickey is better than the babe or joe d is btr than ted williams..u cnt say jordan is btr than kobe..each era has ther star it started with jerry west than dr j than magic nd jordan now ita kobe nd the future will be durant..it is an opinion who u think is the best i am 21 nd watched jordan and kobe both play i say kobe is the best ever

[ThunderHenshin32]

i missed this all star game. Probably my favorite all star game. Remembering the days, when Grant Hill, & Penny Hardaway were healthy. Missed the 1990s very much.

[maiser16xvi]

This game sums up why the 90s were so good.

[jovonlee316]

i miss the kobe fro, ive always tried to grow mine like his but never could lol. He wont do it again cuz his airline is receiving

[fluffynoses]

look at that idiot KG trying to guard MJ. what a fail

[FloridaWhiteTiger]

Hold on. Did Shaq just do a mid-range turn-around jumper?!?! o.O

[shaunhoward]

Shawn Kemp with the cavs? alkdjfalksjfl

[markozesar]

those "school yard plays" bob says, mj use to score them the most of them, but kobe...it's a long distance to go thru.

[shel2185]

I loved the old jerseys lol!

[biggip24]

@shel2185 they should go back to it

[Tube2488]

Man.... Penny Hardaway...what a tragic story.

[nishanth01]

I don't think I saw Kobe pass the ball a single time

[SuperDanman1234]

lol kobe has trouble off the dribble......my ass

[RTR9]

@SuperDanman1234 lol right

[knnydp]

"no one has missed yet, bob..." (kobe misses shot) lol

[HagopC1]

@trumpetguy3039 i no right imagine they all wudve been in their prime idk how many titles they wudve won 2 much 2 count lol

[Laydeezmancris]

haha its so nostalgic to see an nba game where most of the players are NOT covered in tattoos

[trumpetguy3039]

Omg I just realized, the western starting line-up is almost the 03-04 L.A. Lakers starting line-up!!! Haha Payton, Kobe, Malone and Shaq!!! That is great!

[TheRatedIX7]

A 21-year-old Kevin Garnett and a 19-year-old Kobe Bryant.

[biggip24]

@TheRatedIX7 classic

[stokes288]

love bob costas on the mic

[jonnytrelll]

this game seems to almost mark the end of a a golden age for the NBA. Gotta be one of the best all star line-ups that we'll ever see!

[LifeFirst]

They actually played defense like it was an actual game...goddamit..

unlike today's All Star games

[disiscotown]

Jordan slapped Kobe's hand at 2:13

[QueenJamesXXIII]

i don't know what to say on 2:13

[disiscotown]

@QueenJamesXXIII

but i know u caught it too

[actoman1]

kobe bryant is better than michael jordan

[mitakabgg]

@actoman1 never

[southsideroy]

@actoman1 kill yo self

[jackliu913]

@actoman1 No, he's not. No one will be ever better than him.

[starwarsnspiderman30]

SHIT SHAQ made a TURNAROUND J @ 2:27

[BallinForLife312]

@starwarsnspiderman30 i know man, rare haha

[starwarsnspiderman30]

@BallinForLife312 lol

[Crawill88]

PENNY & GRANT HILL

[Facefo23]

if shaq made those fadeaway jays like he did at 2:24 HE WOULD BE UNSTOPABLE

[garrypeter167]

wowo diegoris23 this vid is neat if you want to learn how to dunk you have to take a look at this - 50inch vertical[dot]com

holla at you later diegoris23

[lekonoleken]

Garnet is the bes defender for MJ

[Domini478]

You are delusional because he couldn't stop MJ...look at the damn vid!!!

[xekit]

funny how 4/5 starters on the west actually played on the same team in 04

[malcfrost]

@mistanderson - If Kobe was so flashy during the game, why was he benched the entire second half? He looked like he wanted to cry at some points. He was about to upseat Jordan. If he would have been allowed to outshine Jordan during that game his confidence and career would have picked up a lot quicker than it did.

[Domini478]

Dumbass, Kobe played nearly the whole 3rd qt...so wtf are you talking about??? He didn't play the 4th qt because his coach didn't put him in...He is not better than MJ...so stfu!!!

[mangokiller111]

@malcfrost it was his first all star game they dont put you as a starter in your first all satr game

[Domini478]

@mangokiller111 What are you talking about?? This was kobe's first all star game and he started! Who ever the fans vote for the most....they will start!

[akosh33]

why is there such god worship of jordan? yes, he was the best ever, but it's not like kobe, lebron, magic, iverson, et al aren't spectacular players in their own right. it's not like jordan was or is peerless. he's not bigger than the game. the game exists just fine without him and there are plenty of phenomenal players out there. maybe none of them has the same je ne sais quoi, but can we really say that lebron and kobe (and maybe tmac and vince, once) don't come close?

[Domini478]

Are you dumb or what??? MJ changed the game and he made the game what it it is today!! This man got the most scoring titles, the highest scoring avg in NBA History and the most NBA Finals MVPs...He is bigger than the game and most of all the greats agree...the game wouldn't be shit without him...so stfu! No, Lebron or Kobe don't come close to MJ!! MJ is the greatest!! clown ass!!

[Antikaku99]

@Domini478 I agree even Kobe gets 10 titles, its all over for him to steal the #1 spot,history in basketball was already made and its all over. MJ-goat

[jackliu913]

@Domini478 Agreed man. MJ revolutioned basketball.

[DaMysteereusMon]

kobe.

[Darryl46325]

diegoris23, occasionally I make myself to remind myself of how it was like before I can easily dunk the ball. Just after I followed the training program at | 50 inch vertical(dot)com | - my skills has been improving dramatically and I'm even a starter now! timing retard eliminator

NBA All Star Game 1998 Part 1/12

[frusionnn]

1:08-1:19 enough said by Bob Costas. EVERYBODY should learn from that quote!

[Pokie1120]

"GIve it back to Jordan" LOL...Bill Walton was one of the best commentators

[jeterj1107]

I miss these days. The skill of play has dropped off so much in the NBA now. How can guys call themselves professionals, and not be able to hit a free throw, or mid-range jump-shot.

[dthon1]

MJ's shot at 2:02 was un-fucking-believable.

KJ had full extension and still couldn't block it.

[TheUltimatePike]

Did you see that, the first 2 players that is shows giving props to each other in the beginning are Jordan and Malone. Honestly, and I'll probably get a lot of crap from people about this, Jazz should have won the 98 finals. Game 6 was taken from them on so many levels by the officials. Especially the blatent push off by Jordan on his final shot, but I do respect that man and what I could do on the court.

[frusionnn]

@TheUltimatePike no the 1998 finals was supposed to go to a game 7, I will admit that. and yes, I also admit the officiating in that game was not very well because they took the Howard Eisley buzzer-beating three pointer away in the first half that should have counted. and then they counted a Ron Harper shot clock violation field goal that should not have counted. so in reality, that series was supposed to go to a game 7 and my prediction would be the Bulls winning (from past game 7 experiences)

[thesportsdude90]

I watched this as a kid. MJ was the biggest sports idol for us 90's kids.

[TRJ22487]

You and see the intro and starting lineups to this game on my channel - and see the actual game here

[pretzelpimp]

the reason most people think that Penny's career dropped off so much is because he tried to come back too early to play in the all-star game, so it's sad seeing him here

[malcfrost]

The NBA cheated Kobe and gave MJ the MVP in this game. It was one of the greatest conspiracies in NBA history, and I'm sure it kept Kobe back a couple of years.

[mistanderson]

@malcfrost Stop smoking. The East WON. Michael was the MVP. Kobe was just flashy. That case Vince Carter shouldve won it too if the All Star game was decided by Flashy Plays.

[zdl23]

lol... look at 2:12.. looks like kobe didnt like the smell of jordan's breath when jordan coughed... xD

[ceezybaby]

this is weird lol

[kipoi03]

o'neal at mid range 2:26 .wtf :))

[chrisbank2]

Well, at young shaq, he is beast for sure :D

[easypointz]

Thanks for uploading this in such a good quality.

[MrJCon35]

ur joking right

[dolrich05]

..michael jordan is simply the greatest player evr to hit the the nba,.with his ability,skills,heart and passion for the game,undisputed king of basketball,.

[blade4hero]

How might Kobe career have been different if it had been Lakers vs Bulls in 1998 in NBA Finals and Lakers won in six over Jordan and Phil? I bet the media would have gone nuts!

[ceezybaby]

But.... jordan never loses in basketball. its common knowledge like water is wet

[Domini478]

Bitch, youre stupid because nobody could beat MJ in the 90s playoffs...

[lazelle48]

so kareem is the best player in history?

[Domini478]

No, MJ got the most point in the All Star game, now. He got the record in 2003, dumbass

[srebrenikmaestro]

in that time of all star games...they were competing,,,but now they are just having fun on that games...check 2008 game...in second half they were just dunking and thrown alley oops...the passion for bball grows from year to ear

[aafafa12]

there will be no michael jordan again

[LasaC99]

thanks for the upload! an instant classic. I mis Jordan, Penny, Kemp, and Malone. thanks again.

[monkeyfai]

Wow 1998 all-stars starters minus KG = 2004 Lakers starters!!! Weird!!!

[rbonilla18]

the commentator is so right "the next mj, thats silly there will not be another mj"

[07NFFC07]

Thanks for the upload. This is great.

[scrubbabubba]

lol can we get back to jordan

[Didmyreturns]

lol wilt chamberlain got 100 points in one game THE BEST funny how kobe turns into a 3/4 version of michael jordan

[geracach89]

together the best players of the 00's SHAQ KG KOBE and DUNCAN just fantastic they were young and now they are the vets. good time watching those names.

[cml987]

what are the shoes garnett is wearing. i've been lookin 4 weeks

[EvolutionIXRR]

how come MJ is the only NBA players that plays basketball so beautiful????

[Clegend24]

CLASSIC! all star game 98 at MSG? Classic

[pmhiztory]

look at shaq! that man can actually move. and shoot. a bit

[Odawg5555]

i saw kobe bryant

[AI913]

Great game.

[AI913]

I wanna know how they introduced the players.

[rocketballa4life]

faggs

[nikedon]

LoL!

"Give it back to Jordan."

- Bill Walton at 5:19

[Smeggypoo]

Thanks for uploading this, bro.

[tik014]

MJ always made every shots look easy,his fadeaway jumpshot was his signature move like Kareem skyhook.

[roymegatron]

kobe was so childish naive and cute hahahaha

[JQUiK84]

best all star game ever

[LuigiLaker]

The best players in the entire world, the NBA All-Pros..

[azuma33]

You know what's funny??? WHO KNEW that SIX YEARS LATER that basically the WHOLE starting lineup for the WESTERN ALL-STAR team would be on the SAME TEAM!!!! Lol'.

Meaning: Shaq, Kobe, Malone, Payton.

[SlimHunna]

The best part I like about this all star game is when Michael Jordan scored the 1st basketball..and the piano plays after he makes it. Like he play for the New York Knicks...And Grant Hill scored the next possession. same thing. :-)

[0o0o0oZak0o0o0o]

omg I miss them

[FireGuyX]

Penny was one of my favorite players, it's too bad injuries destroyed his career.

[deezbeatz07]

same with grant hill

[realrocky8591]

and Shawn Kemp

[madcek]

if eating too many burgers and drinking too much booze is counted as an injury... dont get me wrong i love the reignman but he himself destroyed his career...

[BASSASP]

AWESOME!!!

[narutobuu]

classic yo

[RobertoNickson]

thanks for posting this. this is awesome dude

[slydawg221]

now this is what i like. i wish they still wore there own uniforms to the all star game instead of those red and blue ones they wear now. i wish the nfl did this for the pro bowl too.

[nalgas213]

wow eddie jones, nick van exel, mitch richmond, glen rice, shaq, karl malone, gary payton, and kobe. all current and former lakers.

[hkchrisnz]

fuk u he got da torch nw lol

[JayT98]

Jordan worked Kobe. afterwards they said Kobe was devastated after this game because he failed miserably to take the torch.

[K3VRuN]

this is the game where jordan schooled kobe, told him "you reach, I teach"

[timi6]

i didnt kno shaq had a turnaround jumper, or any jumper for that matter

[bulls7123]

he honestly doesn't, that was a fluke.

[NYyanks2423]

lebron james is the next michal jordan. actually lebron is already better than jordan was back in the day.

[K3VRuN]

ure bugging, that was one of the most absurd things ive ever heard in my entire life. u must be very young

[NYyanks2423]

im 15 and you didnt hear it you, read it, you dumb shit.

[K3VRuN]

yep you're a young one, lebron james is not better than jordan was at this stage in his career, nor will he ever have the impact on the game that jordans has, but u enjoy ure stars of today who have runined basketball, u lack the knowledge of real basketball, carry on with your juvenile antics of cursing on youtube.

[NYyanks2423]

ok what are u like 16. what a big difference.

[mj45jh23sp33]

Please tell me how he has surpassed MJ not in any phas e of the game is he even close!!!

[jp3813]

Lebron turns 24 this season. At the same age, MJ averaged 35 ppg and repeated his feat of being the first player to ever record at least 200 steals and 100 blocks in a season. He won the MVP that year and also the DPOY. Since Lebron hasn't done that before he turned 24, he only has a chance this year to equal that feat. Hence he's not "already better" than MJ "back in the day".

[AceroySangre]

80s and early 90s NBA players the best ever!!!.

CHARLES BARKLEY, GREATEST PF EVER WHEN FIT AND HEALTHY. ¿TIM DUNCAN? ¿KARL MALONE? JAAJJAAJ YA RIGHT LOOK AT THEIR PLAY OFF STATS AND YOU-LL SEE WHO WAS BETTER. AND CHARLES DID NOT HAVE DAVID ROBINSON (probaly second most versatile cente ever, after Akeem), and JHON STOCKTON (second greatest passer ever, and top 3-defender steals per game ever)

[TheUltimatePike]

Karl Malone is considered the best PF to play the game. But I do have to say Barkley was a beast as well. As for Stockton, you have second greatest passer ever. Maybe you are thinking Magic, but Stockton does hold #1 assists record by a ridiculous margin. Also you said "top 3 defender steals per game ever." Well, per game, yeah, but also the #1 record for steals.

[jackliu913]

@TheUltimatePike But Malone is an asshole in real life.

[SiiRjn]

wooo so many rokies this yr!!!!

[wrestlemania200]

great game

[darkgrave07]

players in the 90s are way ahead compare to players of today.

[betotey]

i miss basketball in the 90's it sucks now

[hiphopcr]

Have you been watching this season? The NBA is better than it's been for years.

[betotey]

there are a couple teams i like watchhing; hornets, blazers but its hard to keep up with players due to so many trades.

[K3VRuN]

lies!!!!

[mj45jh23sp33]

no seriously he actually was MJ cutt him up good kobe only scored on MJ twice MJ got nearly all his on Kobe and in the Game in LA MJ put 13 on him 6 mins then KB never guarded him again til the last minutes MJ was way to much for KB to handle this season KB got outplayed by shandon anderson and chris morris in the playoffs please he was not even a 10th the player MJ was

[jorqy]

this all-star game rocks. if not for kobe joining the game. this era rocks. players of today are just like kids in the streets who feels lke they know how to play the baketball. 90's era rocks. by the way kobe sucks!

[cambyman21]

wow its been 10 years. If someone can download the rookie-soph game in 1998 then that would be ill! Im a raps fan I remember T-mac had a few ill dunks in that game reppin toronto, my 2nd fav player ever alvin williams did well to even though he was on portland at the time..

[adammanymoons]

So did you get here before sentences were supposed to make sense?

[requenabrian]

so true

[jp3813]

Worst logic ever.

[requenabrian]

crazy the west starters were the lakers 2004 team minus garnett haha

[jp3813]

Funny that even w/ that amount of talent, they still lost to Detroit in the finals.

[requenabrian]

yeah easy to lose when 2 of those guys were hurt(shaq and malone) and payton was missing every shot he threw up there and kobe was being triple teamed like a bitch in a gang bang plus the pistons were on fire idk if the spurs d could even stop them that year.

[jp3813]

Shaq averaged a double-double in that series w/ 26.6 ppg (63%) and 10.8 rpg. Malone was hurt. Detroit held the rest of the team down to shooting under 40%. As the 2004 Olympics showed us, no matter how stacked your team is it doesn't mean that they'll win.

[requenabrian]

yah i know thats why i said detroit was on fire they took the lakers apart

[xxpsychopunkxx]

Kobe Owns

[09adecha]

why isn't alonzo mourning in this all star game?

[sonic7777]

im guessing no1 voted for him??

[09adecha]

what does that mean?

[sonic7777]

he didnt make the team lol...

[ThaGreat0ne]

i liked these ASG cuess all the people wore there normal jersys insted of the east and west crap it was jsut every man repping there teams but they stopped at about 2004 i THINK cuess of confusion

[TRJ22487]

Players wore their own jerseys in 1997 1998 2000 2001 2002

[ThaGreat0ne]

MY BAD LOLOL i ment to say 2001 but it was 2002?? well i guess u learn sum every day lol

[TRJ22487]

yep 2002 was the last time. I have that entire game uploaded if you'd like to watch it.

[DanDMan16]

if its really because of confusion, then why don't they do that to the rookie challenge.
