This hoodie design highlights Kobe’s 5 NBA Championship trophies on the upper left of the design.
The flipped 8 represents Kobe’s infinite influence on the game of basketball.
The roman numeral “XX IV” inside the 8 represents Kobe’s jersey number 24.
If you look closely you will also see a basketball to the inside of the 8 to the left.
The snake going through the 8 represents the Mamba Mentality.
If you look on the left outside the 8 you will see a grapevine representing Kobe’s love for wine.
The roses surrounding the design represent giving Kobe his flowers for for his influence on the game. |

I know ridiculous, but I shelled out the 60$ to buy this for my 12yr old. he wears it all the time. it looks really dope and the comments he gets are usually from adults who actually were fortunate enough to live through Kobe years. |
Thank you for sharing that. I think it is awesome. 4 Mambas |

Kobe’s never give up attitude always made you feel like we could potentially win no matter if the odds were stacked against us.
I’m really missing that right now.

You'd have to drag him off the court. If he can walk, he can play. Different breed.

This is the best Instagram page for Kobe content. I'm 99.99999% sure that it's one of his old teammates from high school that runs it. Kobe follows this page. Ton of good old footage from other players too. He/she is the NPZ of Kobe Instagram pages.

I try to think about why even after a guy wins a ring for a team, clearly plays at a top 10 level, borderinline MVP level for a franchise, majority of the fans don't embrace him that way (including me).
And the answer to me is Bean. He ruined it for us, in that he put the level so high. I was no Bean first fan, but the thing you could count on day in and day out he would compete 100% and give it all. He broke his body to get a team like this past season's (bleep) show into the playoffs.
Lebron is a different dude he load manages himself very well and he often can turn it on into GOAT mode when he sees the chance is there to win a ring. However when it isn't he's also quit on the team and lacked leadership. It's been sad to see, but it's part of the manage my career so I can play until 40 process.
I greatly appreciate Lebron for choosing to have this decline in LA at least we got a title out of it. But I won't shed a tear when he leaves/retires. When Kobe retired, he sucked most of the last 2 years, But I shed tears in that last game. Not because of the 20 years, but what he gave to the team. As time has gone on and I see other great players don the Lakers jerseys, I only value Kobe more now. Miss you Kobe. Forever grateful is Laker Nation to you, dude. |
