Kobe before Kobe: Ultimate High School Highlights (Lower Merion, McDonald's AA Game, etc)
To celebrate Kobe's birthday I bring you a special treat: a complete and comprehensive compilation of his high school days . More than half an hour that shows footage of his games at Lower Merion, the McDonald's All American Game, The Magic Roundball Classic, among other HS tournaments and competitions. Most mixes just include his dunks and showboating plays, but I also wanted to show how skilled and crafted his game already was by ages 15 to 17. Hence why the compilation is divided into five different categories: Driving, Shooting, Post Moves, Passing and Defense. Also and as per usual, the video contains more than 30 quotes from legitimate sources (coaches, teammates, rivals, sports writers, etc) showing what was said about Bryant at that time. He definetely was already a one of a kind phenom. Anyway, hope you enjoy this.
