  • North Car? U are the dumb as ever...LOL Kobe went t o lower merion PA North caro??

  • That was awesome, that guy on Kobe is insanely quick.

    & I can also say that wouldn't have happened to MJ. :D

  • see if these 2 dudes play again what will happen

  • wow, I don't know who is Rizzo but it seems that he was playing hard defense

  • I doubt this is real and if it is Kobe prolly had mono that game. Where ru know working at Walmart while Kobe is the best Player in the NBA

  • who won the game?

    Aces or the other team?

  • that was just bad coaching... they should have had kobe in the post, not bringing the ball up... and really this is all just goofy anyways- anybody can have a horrible game. this is like showing a video of jordan getting cut in highschool and talking shit for that. ooo and like you're really rapping about holding kobe to 8 points 14 years ago or something...

  • lmao its so sad, the rest of the team cant do shit without kobe touching the ball

  • dare u 2 try n shut him down now....

  • wow kobe sucked in high school lol

  • he scored 99 points in one of his high school games

  • i doubt thats kobe

  • all this video shows is how hard kobe worked to get to his level of play now.

  • was 0:27 a shot or a pass???

  • where do you see defense spelled wrong???

  • that dude is freakin quick on his feet!! ffffuuuuk

  • "u cant hold me nor control me,

    shut ya game down lyk derrick did kobe" DAM KOBE COULDENT FIGURE OUT THE COMBINATION CUZ HE WAS STR8 UP LOCKED LOL

  • yeah now kobe is in the NBA and best player in the planet..while the other player watches him on tv!

  • dats wat im talkin bout!!

  • this is too iimendoz if u think nobody wanted to see kobe play in high school ur on fckin on crack

  • Defence wins championships

  • this game by kobe probably inspired him 2 play the defense he does today...9 nba all 1st team defense?

  • Where's Darrick Rizzo now?

    Haven't seen him around the NBA...

    (so Kobe Haters, you can shut up now)

  • Wow. Looks like his teammates have no vision at all..and they all just stand there and watch him.

    Great defense though.

  • Who won the game? Seems the whole point was to deny Kobe the ball. Did it at least work? It didnt work if Kobes team still won.

  • Kobe 's Team lost by 20

  • Okay well kobe 81 in one game.

    Darrick Rizzo, he's not in the NBA.

    Come on Kobe IS the greatest.

  • OK, but when kids shoot, do they say "kobbbe" or "rizzo"

  • hey d-unit....try to guard kobe now...lol

  • what is the songs name

  • man you can see that he was a whiner back then too.

  • thanks to all you haters out there he is now the BEST basketball player in the world right now!!!!!!!!!

  • This never happened to Lebron in high school! Lebron had to play in different gyms because he got sooo much respect. Kobe couldnt pay people to be there!

  • kobes cryin at home right now thinkin bout what happened in tha nba finals man

  • but the same thing that happened in this vid happened in the nba finals hahaha

  • entire point of the vid isnt kobe sucks its that good defense can shut down the greatest O players of all time it says that pretty much in the beginning

  • How many points did the guy who was guarding him get?

  • is this ruben patterson :O ? KOBE STOPER KOBE STOPER!!

  • kobe stopper my ass dats why kobe had 37 points on ruben patterson and 2 game winners

  • try defending him now he can take you one on one and even the whole team. he's the best player now. MVP!

  • maybe someone from he nba should draft D'em up

  • ok wow, good d, yipee. can we see how he scored his "lowest high school game ever" maybe? lets see those 8 points

  • I'd like to see Darrack Rizzo "shut him down" today.

  • It's Funny...Now Kobe Bryant is the best player in the world.

  • this guy was a councelor for my friend at a camp. this is sick

  • thats crazy defense... but still high school!!???

    who gives a shit, Kobe's now the greatest player in the NBA this era

  • Ok...yall r missing the point of the video. We all know that Kobe would probably eat this guy in now, and we all know that Darrick Rizzo is an unknown, but the point is that at Kobe was a superstar in high school ball, and being able to stop him was a huge feat for any high school player. Thus, having good defense can help overcome excellent offense.

    That all this video was about, so please hop off of Kobe and stop talking about what wouldn't occur if this were to happen on an NBA stage.

  • THE BEST REPLY EVER!

    D' EM UP

  • kobe is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better now!

    Get out laker haters

  • love to see that guy shut him down now...

  • ha or we can make excuses for those who were the "elite" athletes even in high school. ya you're right, the defense had nothing to do with any of those turnovers....nothing at all.

  • Kobe wants to score more than his defender wants to prevent him from scoring. That was what made him a great scorer in the first place. After he had built up a high enough reputation, defenders wanted 'not' to get scored on more than they wanted to prevent him from scoring, making him almost impossible to guard. Here you can see Darrick preventing Kobe from scoring because he obviously wants it more.

  • u know kobe could beat anyone of those foos today with one hand behind his back

  • good for you on the D..but overall Kobe is the greatest player right now..besides this is h.s, at this point of his career you would get done up...

  • Well, on the first "bad pass" kobes center was suppsoed to cut to the hoop.

    And on the bad pass from his teamate he couldnt handle.

    And his turnover was a 1 v 3 matchup and none of his team made any moves away from the ball.

  • i think if the inbounder lobs the pass to kobe while kobe is putting a body on him that might work or maybe not if others came to help, just a suggestion.

  • yea ull notice that at 1 12 or something. all the inbounder needed to do was lob the ball over to kobe. and kobes got some horrible teammates too lol, no offence. great defense by the other team though.

  • AAAAAAAAIIIIR BAAAAAAAALLLL

  • you know what, that is good defense, but who's ever heard of darrick rizzo? yeah sure kobe wasn't as good as he is now, but one bad game basically made him a superstar, and darrick rizzo, well i bet he's out coaching some high school team or rec center.

  • Bet you couldn't hold him to 8 now. Na I'm just playing, least you have a great story to tell your grandkids and have proof.

  • Is this why he wore 8 when he came in the league?

  • this is where kobe learned about defense and its importance

  • thats what u call fundamental defense

  • that shit does'nt fly in the NBA son, too many passers too many cutters with a good team. Kobe can dribble out of triple teams easily from half court. high school d is good for high school. it means shit on the world stage. NBA d cant hold this guy down most of the time. the only reason it appears to work ever this year is because Kobe chooses not to take over games as much. nice try...you fail

  • you guys need to deny kobe.. thats how kobe was in his high school year.

  • 8 pts still a lot

  • If they kept that defense on him the whole game, its amazing he even scored lol

  • wow that's annoyingly good defense, if his teammates had played better than they could have taken advantage of those double and triple teams.

  • You can not really blame him. I play in UCLA and I am now eligible for the NBA draft. Years ago, back in a JV game I only scored two points!! Just because I scored low does not mean I did not play well. I had 6 blocks, 9 assissts and 13 rebounds. It does not matter how much an individual scores as long as he/she helps their team achieve victory. Basketball is a team sport, keep that in mind.

  • dang they shut kobe down

  • im sorry can i add his points he had 8 points and put the number to right next to the 8 and u will get 81

  • did they lose the game? thats what it matters the most!

    who cares ..Kobe is unstoppable right now

  • They Lost the game

  • i was just wondering did everyone no who he was back then? like kids in ur school and ur coach new about him? and did he slam it at all this game? lol

  • i bet he couldnt do that to him now

  • That's not Kobe, that's Kevin Garnett.

  • yeah kevin garnett handles the ball like a point guard and he played for lower marion..yeah. You're smart

  • good d,bad song.

  • wat u mean bad song ..it goes perfect with the vid..aint u hear the lyrics "shut him down like darrick did to kobe"

  • good defense

  • wft y the hell r his teammates jus standin around KB hella raw but still do sumthin

  • Darrick Rizzo was lucky

    i could say

  • why didn they screen for kobe...? lazy teammates

  • The question is can he D Kobe now Answer HELL TO THE NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Who Cares If He Only Scored 8pts in that game....Now he gets around 30ppg IN THE NBA.

  • Btw whatz the name of the song !?

  • good D pays

  • lol, why are kobe's team mates just standing there? i mean of course you can't get open if everyone except the opposing team doesn't moves. good D though. it's good that he had energy to do this the whole game.

  • its only one game doesnt really mean anything

    wats dis songs name and who sings it?

    chek out my videos plz comment them

  • just one game doesnt really mean anything well wats dis songs name n who sings it?

    chek out my videos and plz comment them

  • kobe had a bad game, not a big deal, happens to all of us

  • I like see Kobe Bryant when he play...but this isnt a bad game:Dthis is a good defense...

  • no screens....

  • good defense !!Kobe just had a bad game ...happens 2 every1 ,he just got frustrated ...but the defender did a great job ...gotta give him props ....haha If he played in HS now he'd probably average 100 ,20 nd 20 a game

  • man that guy was hyper active playing d. kobe burned all his energy to get open

  • Set a screen...Kobe woulda got through

  • Probably just a bad night..every athlete has em'

  • D' Em up shut him down too... Rasheed Brookinboro , Johnny Miller and Pete lazicky

  • This is embarassing. no wonder kobe ball hogs all the time, its to make up for this atrocious performance.

  • LOL Great Comment....(The BEST)

  • lol,..good comment.

  • was KObe a freshman .... I bet KOBE would drop more than 60 on him

  • No he was a Jr. Avg. 26 points...or more...

    And yes... Kobe can score 80 on D' em up now...lol BUT back then he couldn't

  • okat but thats just one game out of like 100 that he played in high school and the others he dropped like 30+

  • who won the game though??

  • D' EM UP Squad..on by 20

  • kobe still had a lot to learn at high school...

    kobe is a monster now.

    he was back then too.

  • yea even tho thats good d, kobe would laugh at the guy's d these dayz lol

  • yes, indeed that is Kobe, its obvious. and no disrespect to Darrick, that was good D man, but Kobe is a str8 killer now, shit he was than too.lol.

  • Kobe Bryant is the greatest of all time

  • That guy should've trie being a cornerback or a safety

  • I would love to see someone doing that to him now, LOL

  • i wonder if he can defend him now..lol

  • what's the name of the song?

  • damn. why isnt the guy in the nba now?

    I want to see him try defend kobe now XD

  • Wow, nice D.! But I bet that defender can't stop Kobe now fo sho even tho that guy tries that tight D. Plus, that was only one game and maybe Kobe owned him the other games... But overall, nice D.

  • is that really kobe?

    lols...

  • YS IT IS>> LOL

  • Did it feel good? Shutting him down like that. Nice!

  • Kobe was just another good player D' EM UP had to stick...it always feels good to shut down someone that is use to scoring over 20..

  • nice clip shows what good d can do

  • nice defence but i want to see him do that now

    to kobe bryant

  • LOL this is good stuff. Kobe looks retarded. Nice move by the guard at 1:25 though. That other team had a suffocating press.

  • d m up!!

  • Had someone else brought the ball up the court and had kobe sit in the paint and receive the ball frequently, the other team would have had to go with a bigger guy. Then it would have been, as usual, easy pickings! Still yet...props to the denial defense because that's the toughest kind to preform!! And it certainly did it's job.

  • The player guarding Kobe is only able to stay with him because he's so small and quick. The other team had bigger players but went with the quicker player. That's like putting Iverson on Kobe yet would that kind of match up ever happen in the NBA...NEVER!!!

  • This is a good video DMUP. I'm a big fan of Kobe and know his game very well. They did deny him the ball but there's something you may not have noticed. They could have easily got the ball to Kobe at any time because look at the HEIGHT COMPARISON!! So his lack of touches was also largely because his teammates didn't simply lob the ball over Kobe's defender's head....

  • LOL LOOKS LIKE KOBE HAD A RUFF GAME

  • Defense definately wins games. You (the whole team actually) did a very good job defending. But there's still no excuse for the elementary mistakes Kobe's team made.

  • the guy who put up this video is obviously a kobe hater. Dude, you have to get real. This was when he was in high school. His game has massively elevated since then.

  • Not at all.....I don't Hate Kobe..lol... High School??? He went to Pro's right after High School..so what are you saying..(he was a bump in High?) Nope..He was the MAn!! I know I can't shut him down now... I run Defensive clinics all over the East..So I'm just putting up old footage of good Def. Your the Hater...Grow up!

  • I'm not saying defense doesn't win games. Of course it wins games. But people get the wrong impression when you put this video up, even though it says that you're not putting Kobe down for this. Were you on that squad in the video?

  • Let me ask you something. I am an athlete myself and I love to push myself. Do you think in this video, that Kobe just had a bad game? And wasn't himself? Or was it truly the defense? You've seen Kobe play and how he plays. And I'm sure you've seen him react to really good D.

  • I really think it was the D....I know he plays against tough D now..But he is a Much better player now...But in High School.. He never really Faced D like that..Only ONCE! D' EM UP... Thanks

  • and the question on everybody's mind is.....

    who is darrick rizzo?

    nah just kidding but goes to show you that the best offense is a better defense

  • that is wat will make you get too d1 schools with grades not jus drop 50

  • True...Thanks... Defense wins

  • this is gay though nothing good...

  • gay? are you gay? You don't know Def.

  • dude, get real. Kobe has faced better D than that and was able to get around that and score massively. So, its not just the D, it's also who is facing the D. And this one footage doesn't mean anything. Doesn't matter what level.

  • You have know clue!

  • On the D-Squad

  • Where's Kobe now, again??

  • NBA DUDE>>>>> Like I said No disrespect...just good def.. dam give some props

  • That was reat defense.And a very bad ffensyve set up by the other team.Where is their point guard?

  • This was Kobe's sophomore year and Lower Merion was playing without their starting point guard.

  • How do you fig this? Did you play on that team?

  • kobe was #24 in hs wasn't he?

  • No Sir..#33 Lower Marion PA That is him...I know I can't do it now but just thought it was cool to watch Defense winning games

  • Kobe still has nightmares of DEMUP

  • nice d, wuts da name of da song

  • Thanks Dog..

    demuprecords dot com

    It's one of My songs on my soundtrack

  • No need to disrespect a man. If i did it i would put it on youtube and i wouldn't be a gentleman like you about it. I would brag haha. Again good work D'emup did you ever end up playing at a higher level?

  • D'emup i give you credit for shutting him down and for admitting you couldn't do it today. And all these people making up excuses omg what is the big deal. It was highschool why are people so serious about this. Good work D'emup

  • nice D dude

  • It's about Time someone knows good D....Thanks

  • 1994 ...Jr. He was scoring over 20 each Game ....Easy.. Until D' EM UP.. Please don't Hate..I know He is ya Boy...I like him too...

  • nah, no hating here. i was just wondering what year this was. that's all. he looked really small for some reason, smaller than some of the highlights im use to seeing him in during hs.

  • it was good denial im just saying that it was bad offense on his part and bad coaching i think your givin yourself to much credit but u still deserve some he took u to lightely and didnt play hard enough

  • HA HAHA.....You are a funny dude.....D' EM UP's Def. is so unreal...for you to not give More credit...you must not know what defense is?? Everyone got the same treatment...So does that mean everyone played d' em up lightely?? Or does D' em up just had D'....Give credit when credit is due!

  • okay talkin in the 3rd person i would have destroyed yoru D with easy backdoor oops gettin better postion or just shooting over you considering your to little if he used his fadeaway then he woulda got 20 your D is wack

  • LOL. You are a funny one... Back Door?? Yea right..It's called Help And rotate...My team has D' Little? How short ya think I am..Not short buddy..

  • ive seen the tape several lobs could have worked i would have destroyed your D its terrible get the whole tape do it in seperate pieces and we can see it

  • and he didnt fight for position at all they didnt have him come off screens or anything its just bad coaching and bad offense a great offense is always gonna surpass great defense

  • Oh....so your saying D' EM UP's Def. was wack? No credit at all? Wow...

  • Leading Lower Merion High to the Class AAAA Pennsylvania state championship in his senior year, Kobe averages 30.8 points, 12.0 rebounds, 6.5 assists, 4.0 steals and 3.8 blocked shots. Kobe becomes Southern Pennsylvania's alltime leading scorer with 2,883 points, surpassing Wilt Chamberlain (2,359), and is named Naismith Player of the Year.

  • Good facts.. Makes me feel even better..

  • that is just terrible offense on his part he didnt fight for position relyed on his passers to give him a good passer coach shoulda had a diff man bring the ball up and feed kobe on the block or the elbow

  • They did have him post up...The Same thing happened...If you deny the ball as hard as D' EM UP did.. you can really shut the star down.

  • there is a diffence then just sending him down the block put the whole vid up and i will see what u really did just some denying isnt that good im surprised they didnt just make him go backdoor and throw a lob to the top for an oop

  • It's too big of file...Can't put the whole video

  • impossible to "shut down" kobe now

  • nO dISRESPECT TO kOBE..hE IS THE bEST... HE WAS AVG. 28PTS.. IT'S MY CLAIM OF FAME IN HIGH SCHOOL.. NOT PUTTING HIM DOWN... NO I CAN'T DO IT NOW... LOL
