After last week’s discussion of the NBA’s nastiest crossover, Kobe Bryant must have taken notice that his name was not mentioned among the elite. Last night against the Sixers he remedied that.
You already know that Kobe is renowned for bringing his A-game to silence the boos when he returns home to Philly. For a full visual recap of his 32 point, six rebound, four assist and 2 steal effort, check below.

Some would argue that the crossover was a borderline carry. Either way, Kobe was sick with it yesterday.

Of course Kobe has one of the nastiest crossovers,
This was smooth - but another good one was when he threw about 5 million moves on 2 or 3 guys in the Indy game, one of them being Troy Murphy, then made this filthy back handed layup,

carry or not, the Defense was still pretty tight. He had a hand in his face at the end. that’s just Kobe

Igoudala sucks… he disappoints himself by the way he plays. He gets money and then his whole game just dropped.

Nastiest sequence comes at 5:32 on the second video…You can’t really defend that…If you take one thing away Kobe has a backup. That’s why he is who he is.
And let’s not act like Kobe didn’t have Scottie on skates his first years in the L against the Bulls. No one really gave him problems one on one…Shane Battier has done the best individual job I’ve ever seen on Kobe, but too many things have to work in your favor to defend him well consistently…

What is this guy NOT in the elite class of? That’s the sick thing about him that has never happened in the NBA I don’t think…
He’s an elite defender, elite dunker, elite ball handler, elite 3 point shooter, elite midrange shooter, elite passer (when he feels like it), elite EVERYTHING. Maybe shot-blocker is the only thing not on that list, but what SG was ever an elite shot blocker…the guy is unreal

I remember when Kobe crossed Latrell Sprewell when he was playing for the Timberwolves. That was nasty:

I wouldn’t consider him an elite passer. Not even close imo.

Agree with #9 about the move in the second video. Look at how fast he’s moving, and those handles.
Kobe’s the Sylar of the NBA. A few games after playing Derrick Rose, he’s already absorbed all of his moves.

Lake Show is really rolling…the 2nd unit is contributing.
Kobe has all the counters, he’s just unstoppable.

Yeah it’s a nice crossover by Kobe, but the play should never have come that far. Because Kobe travels
