The Los Angeles Lakers shooting guard, Kobe Bryant, is one of the best basketball players to ever play in the NBA. Here are ten of my favorite performances.

If you’re like me then you probably watched the Los Angeles Lakers get killed by the Indiana Pacers last night. I couldn’t believe the score of the game at one point was 60-27.

Even though the Lakers managed to lose to the Pacers, they started fighting back in the third quarter and in the second half thanks to Kobe Bryant going off. It’s just his will to never quit and to always get better, that separates him from most players.

It’s that same passion and desire that made Kobe Bryant the third all-time leading scorer in NBA history. Because of his remarkable accomplishment, how about we take a trip down memory lane? We’re going to look inside of the highlight vault and we’re going to look at some of my favorite Kobe Bryant performances.
