Actually not really a Signature move. I mean it's mostly used by many players, but mostly by the legends! Such as Michael Jordan, Hakeem Olajuwon, Kobe bryant, and etc. It's probably just a signature move to him since he uses it most of the time. But I would mostly call it just a move in basketball. But it's one my favorite moves! :D
@FreakishSalmon way better when he was young? durant just finished his 4th season.
through 4 seasons kobe hadn't averaged more then 23. durant is the youngest scoring champion ever, on back to back years.
and shut the hell up with the "guy doesn't play defense" i hear that about every damn player in the league at one point or another. the man plays good D.
@DynamicImpulse It's the kobe because it's not just the fade away that jordan mastered from other players but the entire sequence which kobe made famous.
Nah. Kobe learned all Michael's moves. He didn't just stop there though. He learned every all-time greats' moves. Then put them together in strings and combinations, mastering when each move is useful, so as a game occurs, he can pull from any of his available moves to beat the defender(s) in any given situation. Sorry bro. This line is "the Kobe."
@lightsw0rd its called the 'Kobe' not because its a fade away jumper. but because this is a move similar to what kobe uses, which was also used originally by MJ. they could call it the 'Jordan'
this is just one of the reasons why kd is one of the most deadliest offensive players in the league. his footwork, timing, he makes it look so easy. Even though he got it from kobe it still looks original.
@GRIDSALEENS7 right, its a pro hop basically right? after his last dribble he takes off into the jump stop, then he's allowed to establish his pivot after landing on both feet. that's legal if im seeing this correctly.
you know kobe is a living legend when another star player's signature move is called the kobe lol

@RillMusik ? jerry west didn't use it to the degree that MJ did.
and the move didn't come from any one person in particular. that's like claiming responsibility for the jumpshot or layup.

@MisterBiggler Well, if a teammate passes you while you're in the air and jump stop, you're of course able to establish your pivot foot.
