    Audio / Visual quality of the highlight clips themselves, not talking about Kobe or Mike's abilities, accomplishments and numbers over their careers.

    When Kobe has finished his career and all we have are the "great" highlight clips to still enjoy, it's just a fact imaging technology keeps advancing. The quality of image capture and broadcasting of those game images is obviously better over Kobe's career than it was during Mike's career. Like today's clips compiled will pale compared to the ones in 10 years that are all in 4K or something even better.

    Speaking of Kobe highlight clips, if any of you have bookmarked 5-10 favorites, or 1 or 2 or 3 please share the links here and even any comments about any of them you'd like to make.

    The ones with the best eye for collections of Kobe moments and moves, best editing and BEST audio tracks. Hopefully the music's good and commentary's good and it's all repeat listenable.

    What are your favorites?

    In a way, it kind of brings me down watching these clips, knowing he cant do some of these things anymore.

    Yeah but we're always going to have them. He still an amazing player at times even now, just not as quick and can't jump like that any more. It's good to watch prime Kobe once in awhile. Man some of the clips from the recent two championship teams, great to see all the guys and prime Pau and Lamar on the floor with him.

    I've got a ton of great Kobe videos. I'll slowly start pouring them into this thread.

    Here are just 2 for right now that are quite impressive. Credited by the great video editor: Max Frishberg

    Kobe Bryant - In Cold Blood
    Two words to describe this video if played with a high enough volume - Fast & Intense

    Some of these are shooting my image quality theory all to hell. [​IMG] Kobe has been in the league so damn long and overlapped Jordan. It's all good though if they are "good".

    It really is. It's well produced, flows well, and is just a notch above most of the "highlight" films you typically see on Youtube.

    Yeah that first one real posted, wow. Kobe could do it all. The footwork, scoring from everywhere, dunking on anyone, the passing, and in his young days to prime years some hounding defense and soaring for rebounds in big games.

    That pass to Gasol against the Magic with us down 5, if Kobe doesn't make that play that fast that at the time seemed like a too little too late bucket, Fisher's game tying 3 never happens. Also, Kobe has dunked on everyone, I mean everyone. Yao, Vlade, Duncan, Robinson, Dirk, KG, the list could go on.

    It's great to have these videos as the media has downplayed his greatness and tried to make us forget for years now how great he was. We were there though, we saw, and I'm sorry, Kobe > anyone else in the league after Jordan retired.

    Great to see. As I've said for a long number of years now, Kobe is the most versatile and skilled offensive player that I've ever watched in 35 plus years of NBA viewership. Hands down, no contest for me. Jordan was a more dominant player, IMO, and obviously more efficient. But Kobe really could do it all. I watched the Cap, Dr. J, Magic, Dominique, Big Game, Jordan, Bird, Shaq, et. al and Kobe takes the cake. He's a polarizing figure and I get that the media often seemed to downplay his greatness. But when you look back at what he was able to do it's really undeniable.

    ^Whenever I would get into discussions about Kobe sometimes I would ask the person "Name me one player to change his shooting mechanics in his career and still dominate? Now one that did it midseason? Now one that did it mid-game?" Kobe's greatness was summed up for me when he dislocated his finger on his shooting hand and modified his shot during the game and then modified it again to continue playing with a splint one it. The idea of being able to do that at any level is crazy but to do it at the top level and STILL dominate is insane. We wont even talk about walking to the freethrow line with a torn Achilles tendon.

    Hell yeah the list could go on, LOL. You left off Kobe tea bagging Dwight freaking Howard. Am on cell or appropriate smileys would appear.
