Kobe Bryant was one of the greatest players to have ever played in the NBA but he certainly wasn't one of the most likable ones around during his playing career. Bryant had more than his fair share of haters and his cold stand-offish personality made things even worse.

Bryant, though, relished playing the role of villain in opposing arenas and there was nothing he enjoyed more than silencing crowds on the road. Before Bryant played his final game for the Los Angeles Lakers in 2016, Nike put out an epic commercial of him embracing all the boos from the opposing crowd as he conducted an orchestra and it also had cameos from some of his rivals like Paul Pierce and Rasheed Wallace. Phil Jackson and Jeanie Buss made an appearance too and it is a great watch.

"Just gave me the chills."

"Too good!"

"This commercial was my favorite when he was here and now since he’s been gone it just hits differently 💔love you Kob we miss you"

"Kobe ALWAYS let his game do the talkin'"

"This was my favorite commercial when everyone hated Kobe and he made Nikes during his last NBA career miss you everyday black mamba"

"Now that was 🔥🔥🔥"

"Wow, I just can’t believe I’ve never seen this commercial…… it gives me the chills"

"That is incredible lol..🖤💛"

"Chills😢❤️"

The commercial was a perfect representation of Bryant embracing all the hate and making light of it. They did a great job there and Bryant would not disappoint in his final game in the NBA, of course, as he scored 60 points to lead the Lakers to a win over the Utah Jazz.

Kobe Bryant Once Hilariously Tweeted About His 81-Point Game

While that 60-point game against the Jazz was iconic, nothing probably beats Kobe's 81-point explosion against the Toronto Raptors in 2006. Kobe apparently didn't watch the game for quite a while, as he claimed he saw it back for the first time in 2013.

He hilariously recounted the game in a series of tweets and it gave great insight into his mindset on the court. Jalen Rose has always hilariously gotten trolled for that showing from Bryant, as he was playing for the Raptors that night. He opened up on that magical performance, stating that Bryant never said a word and didn't talk trash at any point as he dominated them.
