Imagine being Sasha Vujacic and having to take those 2 free throws, in the last minute of Game 7 of the NBA finals. Nerves of steel.

I’m here after Kobe passed away rip to a legend

After almost 12 years still gives me chills RIP KOBE

4th Quarter and the score is still 60-70's. Both teams Defense goes hard. Still one of the best Finals I've seen

I will never forget this NBA Finals, Kobe Bryant was the reason I fell in love with the game of basketball... R.I.P Black Mamba & Gigi Bryant 🙏

As a Celtic fan I didn’t think Kobe could ever make me sadder than this moment. I was wrong. Rest In Peace Kobe Bryant. Thanks for the memories

This and the 2016 Finals Game 7's were two of the most exciting finals I've ever seen.

As a Celtics fan for the first time, I remembered watching this when I was in high school. It was heartbreaking that my Celtics lost and now they back in the Finals and hope they win it all. RIP Kobe Bean Bryant

This is basketball. No stat padding, no hugging and kissing, no trying to look pretty. Just straight grit and grind, blood and sweat, cuts and bruises.....man I miss Kobe

At 11 years old, I thought this was one of the greatest games I've ever seen, my family were all Kobe fans, cheering and yelling in celebration, but at 21 years old today, I skipped to the last ten seconds of this classic, and seeing Gigi and the siblings, but this time I'm in tears of sadness, heartbroken because my favorite player is no longer alive. He thought us that it takes everything to be great at you do, for that ,THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR EVERYTHING KOBE. January 26th, 2020 is a day I'll never forget.

What a series this was Reviving this historic rivalry Two prized fighters going toe to toe in the trenches, just like back in the 80s. Tough, rugged, raw, relentless determination on both teams. So fortunate to have witnessed this game 7 live

I wish RIP means "Return If Possible" . 😞

We miss you Kobe , always in our heart

Hard to believe this was 10 years since the Lakers last won an NBA Title with Kobe Bryant and 10 years since we last saw the Lakers battle the Celtics in the NBA Finals God Bless You Kobe Bryant and Thank You for all your contributions to the NBA and to the World of Professional Sports R.I.P. Mamba

Who would of thought 10 years later Kobe would be dead, and lakers would win there 17th championship 🤦🏻‍♂️😢

It's insane seeing the role players play with such aggression and grit 💯! You can tell Kobe drilled the mamba mentality into everyone he played with 🐍 🏆

PUT SOME RESPECT ON PAU GASOL'S NAME

I remember Ron Artest’s clutch three, But I totally forgot about Vujacic clutch free throws. That was a high pressure high risk situation, he barely plays the whole finals series and just comes in and sinks two clutch free throws. Put some respect on his name!

12:57 iconic gives me chills rip mamba

Still has this teary eyes and goosebumps watching this very intense game 7 finals.. RIP Kobe!!!..Thank you for all your Jordanese within you!!.. 🙏

I miss this Lakers team I miss Ron Artest doing crazy things I miss Pau Gasol screaming after every layup I miss Andrew Bynum getting injured I miss Shannon Brown jumping out the gym I miss Phil Jackson coaching And most importantly I miss Kobe doing his thing

As a Lakers fan, this was the most stressful game ever. RIP Kobe

Thanks for the YT algorithm, this series still makes me touched. The defense and competitiveness is real, no matter how the league have changed, it still brings me back to that perfect era. We miss Kobe so much… From 2023.

As a laker fan its hard not to get emotional especially since bryants passing thank you for the memories

Luke walton with an outstanding double-double performance 25 highfives and 50 claps in this game

I have watched this shit like 30 times already. To bring me back to the glory days of the LA Lakers.

Made the team he had better.. And took down the Celtics without giving up.. GOAT!

One of the most happiest days of my life, I got to witness greatness

Wish we could turn back time, to the good old days.

Game 7 are dreams, night mares, roller coasters, nerve wrecking, heart breaking, and the whole world watches. We get to feel this again tomorrow. YES.

As a Kobe-Generation person growing up watching the Lakers golden days with Kobe Bryant, this is the best Lakers game ever I watched. This will never be forgotten.

Watching this at 4am. I miss Kobe so much. Shaped so much of my childhood. Year after year of watching him and this is all we have left. RIP Mamba.

Im seeing a reminder here that Pau Gasol was truly elite at this point in his career

This is the best defensive display on a Game 7 Finals. Bruh both teams are willing to die just to win.

One the best game 7 of all time 🔥

Damn...I was at my 8th grade end of year awards when this game was on...I got home and remember rushing to turn onto abc and it was end of 3rd quarter....gives me chills seeing Kobe extremely focused and intense

One of the happiest days of my life. Missed grad night for this game. No regrets

R.I.P. Kobe Bryant. NBA Legend. The game will never see someone like you again. I'm at a loss of words...

You can see the trust to their teammates that is Mamba Mentality 👍 RIP Kobe Bryant 🏀🏅 Best player of all time 🏆🥇

The game always bring me nostalgia , the time when I was 11 years old watching the Finals at my friend’s house eating pizza. Shouting “ Let’s Go Kobe “ after every shot he made or took. Thank you Kobe for the memories you brought to me through watching you play.

Mike Breen is the best commentator ever this guy makes games so intense.

Seems like yesterday....

Back when the world was right. Still can't believe I'm saying this but R.I.P Kob. We miss and love you bruh. 💜

Look at Sasha eyes,Stand firmly to bring champs to Lakers!Proud as Lakers Nation when watching live to this game!!!!

One of the best series of all time.... really appreciate now that I look book at the current state of the NBA.

Thumbs up if you're watching this in 2015 and will be watching it again in 2016. (Lakers fans)😀

Our generation’s team! Lakers forever greetings from Whittier California!💜💛

I can watch this over, over, and over again. Never get old. Legendary

Kobe Bryant won his fifth and final ring at the perfect time. Winning against the Celtics, at Staples Center, game 7, leaving the 2000s on top and leading the NBA into the 2010s and passing the torch to LeBron. And having the perfect final game, at home, 60 points vs Jazz, still showing his desire to be better than Michael Jordan, 60 points meaning 6-0 in the Finals vs also against the Jazz. Both hit game winners vs Jazz. He was just incredible at what he did.

Every time im sad, because of the Lakers' bad seasons, I just come back here and watch these past great moments. I remember every finals games, my dad wouldn't go to work and I wouldn't go to school, just so we could watch the Lakers win championships. Despite being born in 2000, ive loved the Lakers longer than I can remember. I hope the Lakers can get back on track, and get Kobe his 6th ring. Go Lakers!!

Thats a game 7! Every position is very intense 🔥 Salute to Mike Breen for putting the game on fire on his wild commentary.

Fisher is to goated how his shot flies in the air and knows it’s straight butter from the 3 or 2

12:57 should be the design of his statue at Staples.

Watching this and Still feel like Kobe is alive.

dude... the second play where they fought for the rebound oh my goodness. this is the type of basketball i love to see... straight chills

The crowd cheer was giving me eargasm, the atmosphere of this finals 🔥

Ima die hard CELTICS fan but damn I Can't believe he's Retiring tonight .. THUMBS UP FOR THE GREATEST LA LAKERS PLAYER OF ALL TIME !

Kobe's last field goal in this game was a pull up jumper towards the elbow...Kobe's last field goal in his final game was a pull up jumper towards the elbow... Then to have Lamar outlet the ball ahead to Kobe to run out the clock...and then to have Kobe be the one to outlet the ball to Clarkson to seal the win for his farewell... Amazing.

UKposts is like a time machine for everything! Sports, Music, News, Memories, History, and all of the above! I miss Kobe & Gianna Bryant:( May they rest in peace & be remembered forever!! God bless!! Make World Peace!

Became a lakers fan since 09 because of KOBE.This year,we won it for him RIP MAMBA 🐍💜💛

REST IN PEACE KOBE! I remember being 9 years old sitting in front of the TV watching this game like it was just yesterday. May you rest in peace with your beautiful daughter GiGi! 🙏

In my opinion, the 2010 NBA finals will go down as the greatest NBA Finals of the 21st century. No one will ever touch that greatness of a series ever.

In my mind, this was Kobe's best, grittiest game ever - Game 7 smashball, low-scoring/defense/duke-it-out... last man standing

Man look at that score. I'm glad I saw this defensive battle on tv rooting for LA.

Kobe didn’t have the best scoring night of his life. But any basketball fan can see he was still far and away the best player on the floor that night. He flat out refused to lose this game.

For all the people saying "Kobe didn't deserve Finals MVP" just because his shot was cold in Game 7 completely ignore the fact that no one really shot well that game (look it up), his index finger was injured, and he also impacted the game in other ways like defense, rebounding and getting to the foul line. And it's called "Finals MVP," not Game 7 MVP. Before Game 7, Kobe was shooting 43.2% from the field, 37.5% from 3, and 93.3% from the line. That's great efficiency playing against great defense in the NBA Finals against a team with arguably 4 All Stars. I'm also not even including his great averages when it comes to points, rebounds, steals, assists, etc...

RIP KOBE I MISS YOU 😢😢😢 OF A LEGEND 😢😢 1978-2020😢😢

Rip goat we all miss and love u kobe May u and Gigi rip thanks for giving me a reason to like watching the lakers play since 2000 u were the goat and continued to be even during 2016 u the man Kobe rip

I forgot Kobe shooting free throws are ONE OF THE BEST PLAYS OF A GAME 7

I came here when I heard the news R.I.P my G.O.A.T

I remember, as a kid, watching these games, waking up 1-2 AM here in Poland, staying till like 5-6 AM then go to school to discuss the results with my friends. LAL vs BC rivalry - Bryant-Gasol-MWP-Fisher-Odom vs Pierce-Allen-Perkins-Rondo-Garnett was tough, competitive and inspiring. I feel these were completely different times...

WE DID IT AGAIN

Who’s here after the Lakers are back in the NBA Finals

I'm a celtics fan but damn, what a great series and even though there's a rivalry between us, I really like the lakers and I'm hoping for a rematch in the finals soon. Lakers vs Celtics, greatest rivalry of all time!

This was a moment. Rest in Peace Mamba🙏💛💜

Brings me too tears 😢 gone to soon. Heart breaking 💔.. RIP Kobe Gigi and all who passed with them. 2020 victory is so bitter sweet.

back to the days when NBA finals were still great

Warriors-Cavs will never be on the same level of intensity as the Lakers-Celtics rivalry. Ever.

This legit brought tears to my eyes man. Kobe Bryant is so loved, and such a legend. RIP mamba and Gigi.

Man I miss Kobe.

10 years ago today on Thursday night on June 17, 2010 at the Staples Center in LA, CA. RIP Kobe Bryant

ONE OF THE BEST SERIES OF ALL TIME.

R.I.P Kobe "the Legend" Bryant he didn't score all the points but he rebounded and made the correct passes to get his team to win it. A real leader makes everyone else around them better.

Thank you UKposts for still having this 🙏

Look at the score, my goodness. I miss old school basketball.

I still wish that 2k includes these two legendary teams

I miss this NBA. Still in 2010 we still could enjoy having physicality, tough defense, no ball carrying, no illegal screens, no 3p no touch rule, and so on that made matches really really exciting. NBA got ruin in just 12 years.

Got tears coming out seeing how happy kobe was and a great basketball player R.I.P KOBE&GIGI

This comment is for ALL the idiots who say "Kobe didn't deserve Finals MVP." Kobe's averages in the 2010 NBA Finals up until Game 7: • 30 Points Per Game • 7 Rebounds Per Game • 4.2 Assists Per Game • 2.5 Steals Per Game • 1 Block Per Game • 44% FG% • 37% 3P% • 93% FT% And most people that try to discredit his Game 7 performance don't even realize that he still played great defense, GOT 15 REBOUNDS AS A SHOOTING GUARD, and got to the line plenty while being very clutch and efficient. Kobe knew his shoot wasn't falling, so he used his diverse skillset and basketball I.Q to impact the game in other ways to help his team win, that's called greatness! And on top of that, EVERYONE on both teams shoot poorly in Game 7. And in addition, Kobe also had a fractured finger on his shooting hand. I find it funny how all haters can say is "Kobe shot 6-24" without acknowledging or mentioning ANY of these facts. In short, people should do their research and learn a thing or two about the game of basketball before trying to diminish Kobe's greatness in the 2010 Finals.

Rest In Peace to the G.O.A.T 😔 remember watching this with my dad when I was 10 so much excitement didn’t know how much this game meant

Rest In Peace ✌🏼 Pops and Kobe

such a better era of basketball, guys aren’t comparing after every call / complaining about no calls. a beautiful thing to watch

Back when games in the finals were exciting af

Goodbye mamba! Dropped 60 today. Incredible.

Goosebumps still in 2022

I still come to your videos and watch them. Especially the ones about Chauncey Billups. I really appreciate that you were taking a lot of subscriber requests and following through with them. You gained a lot of my respect and you still have it after all these years

No feeling As a Laker Fan would be matched then beating Boston in Game 7 For me. This was one of my Favorite Laker Moments

8 years later Perkins is still cheering on the bench 😂😂😂

Just looking at these old highlights instantly makes me miss Kobe and he was the type of player that you wish could play forever!
