Lol people are reaching to do anything to discredit Kobe.

Get a life.

That game is always celebrated as a win for Kobe even though Barnes punked him all game, splashed the difference making jumper right in his face, and forced Kobe to brick the buzzer beater to lose the game.

Did you even watch the clip you posted; just cause Kobe rocked to the side afterwards don't mean he didn't still fake the pass right in front of his face

fukking twitter finger detectives and blogbois trying to colonize and ruin every fun/iconic sports moment they can get their greasy cheeto covered hands on huh?

Why would you flinch when you know he's not going hit you

The mental gymnastics

This is some white nonsense.

He said himself he was trying to scare him, he don't have to be looking at him or directly in front of him to fake the ball toward his face.

These white boys have been trying to discredit Kobe his entire career. Literally entire career. Now that he's retired they still try to tear him down with insane fucc shyt like this. Big fake news.

This is some white nonsense.

He said himself he was trying to scare him, he don't have to be looking at him or directly in front of him to fake the ball toward his face.

Well, then Barnes just got exposed as a liar who was obviously trying to insert himself in an iconic moment. That ball was nowhere close to hitting Kobe

Kobe fans are reliving when their parents told them Santa wasn't real.
