10 MOST ICONIC MOMENTS IN NBA HISTORY.. 

Bro Kobe Bryant's speech left me with shivers. Mamba out. Rest in peace Kobe, a true legend.

It is crazy how much Kobe Bryant's death affected me despite never meeting him or being a real basketball fan. Truly an icon.

I am blessed to have witnessed such a great human dominate the courts for 20 years. Rest easy Kobe you are truly missed by many

What about Reggie Miller’s 8 pts in 9 secs? That was iconic. Could’ve been a honorable mention.

I watched Kobe's last game on an cellphone in a car, and it felt like I was at the movie theaters. By far one of the best sports moments of my life. R.I.P Kobe 💯🔁

You just had to end it with Kobe (tears in my eyes)

Whats really painful was seeing Gianna's face so young and taken so soon. R.i.p to that girl, such a tragic situation.

kobe's final speech brings tears to my eyes, not only thanking everyone but thanking his family too is so damn awesome.. one of the greatest players of all time.. this is so damn iconic !!!

I shocked myself and cried my eyes out at that last one. Crazy how impactful a video can have to you. I can't believe it's been 2 years. Thanks so much for the video man!

Ive been a life long Kobe fan. I travelled all the way from japan to see him play and the second i walked through the hall in the middle floor of the arena and saw Kobe warming up, it was so utterly surreal to me. I watched him so many times on tv. Went through the ups and downs. I was destroyed when he tore his Achilles, absolutely devastated when he passed. He’s the greatest in my eyes. What an iconic player to say the least.

I was born in april 1996 so hearing Kobe say "I can't believe how fast twenty years went by this is crazy" in april 2016 really hit home.

many greater moments than a lot mentioned here - You had nothing from the 60 , 70, and 80s, besides Wilt's 100. Many great moments missed - Willis reed walks out to the court for the Knicks for instance belongs here - Not a single Skyhook, no Bird, no Magic, no Russel, no Detroit, Reggie Miller's scoring outburst that changed to rules... you have maybe 2 or 3 of the greatest in this 10

I mean Bird and Magic had some iconic moments. They could fill up this list alone.

The end with Kobe had me tearing up man I really miss him R.I.P❤️ Mamba forever

Respect for Kobe. when times got tough, he didnt run to another team to get titles. He never gave up. 20 years as a laker. What a true dedicated person. RIP Kobe. The Legend/

Normally rebound is so energetic but today he seamed like he was sick lol

I agree, the Ray Allen 3-pointer still is the most clutch shot, but also the most beautiful shot, in NBA history

Rebound never fails to impress us 🐐

I loved this video! The fact that Kobe’s last game and speech was #1 is truly the best because of how much Kobe was loved all over the world! Some might say he was more loved than MJ and I can see why, he had that aura around him that everywhere he went, across the world and at the Olympics, people wanted to see him. His speech on this video made my eyes water because I remember that game like it was yesterday. Kobe, thank you for being my idol, for making me fall in love with the Lakers and basketball 🏀 I will never forget you, you’re a legend and your legacy will live on 🥺❤️🙏🏻

Kobe you live in our hearts. We´ll never forget the man and the legend you were, you are, you always will be...

I'm so fortunate to have seen most of these players at their prime. I saw kobes last game which was epic. My dad played with Kareem at UCLA. Seeing these games in person are beyond epic. I will never take seeing any game in person for granted.

Wilts 100 points without a single 3point shot is insanely impressive.

This reflects the era you're most familiar with. There've been so many great moments and three I think would make a lot of people's lists would be the 'Now, there's a steal by Bird' moment in 1987, Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals between the Celtics and Pistons. Bird's steal helped the Celtics to win the game. Another moment was in 1995, in Game 1 of the Pacers and Knicks playoff series, when Reggie Miller scored eight points in nine seconds to win the game. Another was Shawn Kemp's revenge dunk on Alton Lister in the 1992 Finals between the Sonics and Warriors.

The fact that kobes last game overshadowed the warriors shattering season record over the 72-10 bulls tells you how iconic kobes last game was, the fact that fans around the globe came to pay kobe one last hoorah to an amazing career as well as alot of people standing outside the staples center/Nokia theater on his last game and bringing grown men into tears. I remember seeing reaction videos on RU-vid including myself of people crying when he was going on his personal 17-0 run to get the Lakers that W n the 4th it gave us glimpse of his days when he was in his prime one last time.

“I can’t believe how fast 20 years went by” brb crying🤧🖤

For older school historians: 1) The 1969 NBA Finals should belong on this list. The underdog Celtics defy the odds to beat the first "Super Team" in nba history. Only time a Finals MVP played on the losing team. 2) game 5 of the 1976 NBA Finals.....the greatest single game in NBA history.

Man, you got me teary eyed, AGAIN! Thank you Kobe! I remember that great Kobe to Shaq alleyoop! I bribed my ROTC instructor to give me that one day just so I could watch it with the other soldiers there! R.I.P. Kobe and Gianna!

Man you killed it with the Kobe Bryant speech at the end.This video is goated for Life. 🔥🔥🔥🔥😤😤😤😤😤

Made me cry at the end. Nothing can be more iconic than the Black Mamba Kobe.

Instant nostalgia

Rest In Peace Kobe. A true legend

What a fitting end to a nice video! Took me back through memory lane. I miss the Mamba 24 as we all do!!

Damn, you really made me cry at the end and then put Shaq's big face smiling all of a sudden

Man, that Kobe Bryant speech always hits me. RIP Kobe!

7:40 is just chilling when the reporter said this

"mamba out" made me drop a tear man. Rip the 🐐.

Yoh you got me going thru rabbit holes the way I'm binging your videos one after another! Your marketing strategy is flawless😆 Love your work!

This was moments from 1996 til now. Forgot about Bird calling his game winner and he even called falling into the trainer's lap. No Reggie Miller 8 points in 8.9 seconds, or T-mac 13 points in 30 seconds. Pippen's dunk on Ewing, Jordan's dunk on Mutumbo, I could go on with so many more historical moments. The only thing before 96 was Wilt's 100 point game everyone knows about. Kobe's 81 was a top 5 moment easily as well.

Amazing video, that first spot got me bro,mamba out, what an icon KOBE was those who witnessed his prime know how fortunate we were RIP legend

UPLOAD WE MISS YOU

KOBE BRYYYYYYANT - Thankful I was growing up during the Kobe years. While Jordan and Lebron are debated as the greatest of all time, Kobe will always be my personal fav.

Love your videos bro. Keep up the great work, always looking forward to the next ones.

Love the vids. Keep doing what you’re doing bro.

One iconic moment that should be included is Kawhi Leonard’s buzzer-beater in Game 7 of the Eastern Conference Semi-Finals (Raptors vs 76ers on May 12, 2019). It was the 1st time the Raptors made it to the Finals and they eventally ended up winning it all!

The NBA are defined by moments. But, since 2020, Kobe Bryant's death is still felt. I remember where I was and what I was doing when I learned his passing. There are very few moments like these in sports. R.I.P.

for me most iconic is that picture from jordan where he jumps very high in the air, celebrating and another guy just gets thrown to the ground (but jordan does not touch him). its just so intense. edit: this one i mean: Michael Jordan's iconic buzzer-beater eliminates Cavs in 1989 NBA playoffs

Had me in tears at the end and at 5:18 when he jumps behind LeBron wanting to get first hug 🤣

Shaq in the back laughing and enjoying while Kobe did his farewell fills my heart

I love your channel bro, you put energy and emotion in your videos.

Man as a life long Lakers fan it wasa really nice to see Kobe's last game and speech as the number one moment. Kobe was really a hero to me! His work ethic and shear well to win was amazing and second to none!

The fact A.I was in there twice🔥

Rest in power mamba, you live on in the hearts of everyone who watched you play

Kawhi’s 4-bounce series winner over Embiid: Am I a joke to you?

Am never aware of the like button but Kobe’s speech made me push the button on this vid ❤️. “Mamba out” 💔😭

Congrats on 2 MILLION REBOUND you worked so hard for this

goat forever

10:16 goat status has been unlocked

Anything about kobe gives me cold chills and makes me tear up. Such a great man and inspiration 🙌 Rest in heaven mamba

I can’t believe he’s gone forever RIP Big Mamba😔😔

I love all of these. Man MJ, Lebron, Shaq, Wilt, Kobe, just crazy and inspirations to us all to be better.

clutch plays give me shivers edit: kobes "mamba out" gave me shivers

Should included the one where Kawhi made that buzzer beater for Toronto. Last game of 7, ot, last shot, and ended with a lucky bounce!

I agree with the #1 spot. That game and that moment were the most Iconic till now. Miss Kobe.

goosebumps bro

Kobe Bryant, heroes are remembered but legends never die and you will live on in infamy. Still get choked up when I watch that speech.

Finally in a while he uploaded

Amazing Moments!! Love Iverson, Shaq, Curry, Ray, Bron Bron and of course MJ. The game wouldn’t be the same without any of them. But seeing Kobe just brings tears to my eyes y’all! Miss him Dearly!! “Mamba Out!”

Kobes speech left me in tears :(

Kobe's speech was so emotional I cried.

Man that speech at the end still gives it to me 😢 #24

Conveniently leaving the Celtics moments out. Havlicek’s steal, Birds steal.

Great vid my man. Excellent all the way around

There all legendary Thx for da vid

Can even imagine how the REAL Kobe fans felt man makes me still tear up

You at least have to mention Jordan's shot over Ehlo. It was important, beautiful and iconic

This was a great compilation. This list was spot on!

Hey man I really like your funny jokes and your videos keep up the good work I admire your videos love you❤🥰

rebound never fails to impress us

Come on!!! I expected greatness. These are good but there are so many more iconic moments. Dr J's around the backboard scoop; MJ's switching hands in midair. Any one of Kareem's sky hooks. Jerry West's half court shot; MU holding his first trophy and crying; Reggie Miller scoring 8 points in 9 seconds. The ones you have chosen are good but there are far from the best.

They were all amazing. Kobe last game was incredible. Got a new subscriber. Was fun to watch. Great video

Dude I had tears in my eyes that last bit just touched me

So glad Kobe was #1 Loved that guy, he was an amazing baller and a great human being

Rebound. Thank you for the video. You did a great job narrating and editing this piece together. There are several legit entries on your list. And then there are some that I don't understand. So I have a couple of suggestions and constructive criticisms that, I hope, can help you keep on improving. First, finding the audio of Wilt's 100-point game was fantastic. But you know what? Who was the announcer? As an NBA fan, I would like to know who the announcer was. Most likely, it's legendary Philadelphia broadcaster, Bill Campbell (RIP, Bill). He broadcast for the W's from 1946 until 1962, when the franchise moved to SF. He also called games for the Eagles, Phillies and Sixers. The dude is a legend. This is important info. Next, may I suggest that Magic Johnson's "Baby Hook" over Kevin McHale is more iconic than Ray Allen's shot? There's really no reason for Iverson to get 2 entries. A more iconic shot that you could switch for either of Iverson's might be Jordan's right-to-left switch against my Lakers in 91. Just some ideas to spice it up a bit. I woulda taken the Fisher Swisher over the D-Wade-LBJ dunk. You're a little too fixated on the LeBron-Golden State thing.

watching lil gigi send kisses to her dad in his final speech made me tear up man. Too sad that they're gone and how they went. Awesome vid

1:43 The guy went like: Oh shoot its Curry!

We can all agree that only players alive in this universe are able to score 100+points and those are🥁🥁🥁🥁🥁 myplayers

Bro rebound just logged out of RU-vid and forgot his password💀

Good video. It’s just that there are a lot more iconic moments in nba history that would definitely make this list :)

Man.. I done got misty eyed watching and actually listening to Kobe's speech. Looking at his daughter Gigi and the way she's looking at her Dad.. now knowing their fate. Man... that's heavy. Mamba mentally not only in sports but in life. It works 💯💯💯

Bro upload already

It’s been 2 months where are you?????

Kobe's Mamba out speech was the perfect ending to one of my favorite performances of any athlete. He turned back the clock and gave us one last magical moment where we felt on top of the world believing anything is possible.

As NBA fan from the 90s, of course I've been MJ's fan and believed that he is the GOAT. But Kobe is surely one of the greatest players of all time. I've truly admired him for not leaving the Lakers for another championship with some super teams and still winning two more championships by himself as the team leader after several upsets after 2003. For the same reason, Tim Duncan is also one of the greatest players of all time. In my opinion, great player and good player are different. Those who stay with one team, build their team and lift up their teammates so that they finally win the championships are considered "Great". That's why Tim, Kobe and Steph are considered as great players to me while players like Lebron or KD are not. Giving up Cav after several upsets and joining Wade's Heat just to win the championship made it illegitimate for Lebron to be called the great player.

I miss 2 Moments. When Bird stole the Ball from Isaiah and when Magic made his Hook Shot.

IM NOT CRYING, YOU ARE....

Ray Allen’s 3 still gives me chills. I remember exactly where I was and what I was doing.

love Kobe but MJ's winning goal in the last 3 seconds (not mentioned on this list) still remains the most iconic moment

Wow it's been 2 months since we've posted the same content we see everywhere else. What up with that.

I love Kobe Bryant’s last speech it almost made me cry rest in peace mamba he was the best.
