Video: Kobe Bryant Off-the-Backboard Assist to Himself

Look ma, no teammates.




People have complained about Kobe’s passing (or lack thereof) throughout his 16 seasons in the L, but they clearly don’t know what they’re talking about. Because Bryant is great at passing the rock … to himself.

    That’s so weak compared with T-Mac’s efforts circa 2001/2002/2003

    Great move by KB8 but he traveled though.

    @sammi, it wasn’t done for flair, it was out of necessity.

    So does this count as an assist + rebound + a missed field goal + a basket or what?

    @sammi and That same T Mac circa 2001/2002/2003 Got How Far In his Career?

    Kevin Martin has to be one of the most useless players in the L when his shots aren’t falling.

    Kobe with the trademark self assist. I remember the first time he did it against Houston. Yao Ming contested the layup and he still got it through.

    Kobe: ‘OK, so they want me to pass the ball? Look.’
