In the beginning I was switching back and forth between the Lakers and Dubs, Kobe put a end to that.

| That was awesome. Thank you Kobe for many great memories. Here's to a new laker era. There will never be another Kobe but there will be future laker legends in their own way. Man, all my favorite sports heroes have retired now, Jeter, Mariano, Kobe. Feels weird. Just want to see the Lakers make a playoff run again. |

WHAT A GAME! LIVING LEGEND MAN!
Thank you Kobe, you have been playing for the Lakers longer than I have been on this earth, and I can say for certain that it won't be the same without you bud. |

| This is it. The end of an era. Years ago Kobe had to learn how to win one without Shaq. Now the Lakers have to learn how to win one without Kobe. |

Michael had two last games. I believe Kobe will only have one.

| Watching the highlights on sportscenter. Amazing to see Snoop, Shaq and Jack all going crazy in the crowd during that insane 4th quarter. |

I hope these young guys never forget that feeling. Of wanting it that badly. |
Yeah, I think they got a taste of what it means to have to rise to the moment. They scrapped and battled down the stretch.
Afterward, too, you could see this game made an impact on them. |

I pretty much lost my voice by the end of the fourth. I'm fairly certain I haven't screamed like that since game 7 in 2010... |

Thank You Kobe for 20 years of memories!
You saved the greatest memory for our last!
After all the mileage and injuries, you did the impossible, you gave us the perfect ending(against the Jazz of all teams). You defeated Father Time!
Legend!
Thanks so much!
Lakers fans are blessed!!

Vcr tapes are fragile, so handle it carefully.
