Kobe: asking mj for advice MJ: “take it personal, anything that happens, take it personal”
-
That's the only time I heard of that Kobe actually stopped focusing on the game to listen to Jordan. Respect

So Kobe asks Michael about his jump shots, and Michael said... ?? You can’t build up to the moment and then leave us hanging.
-
When you realize the LeBron and DWade photo wasn’t an alley oop
-
He protecc He attack But most of all he got a chart for the stats
-
Speaking as a professional photographer (one who has covered sports at one point), photographing basketball is extremely difficult, so the photogs deserve major props for their efforts.
-
who’s here after the news... rip Kobe 😭 😭
-
Spike look like Spencer Dinwiddie if he studied calculus and never grew
-
Bro the Magic and Bird pic straight up looks like a painting
-
No one: YouTube recommendations: yes suffer suffer in your pain
-
Nice how Kobe took this precious moment so seriously and nodded his head in understanding and reflection
-
MJ crying with the ball on Father’s Day
-
Nobody: Jxmy: I got a chart why Jordan is the goat
-
Its like michael is facing his own alter ego...kobe is the best replica of mj's move
-
I find the MJ-Scottie and the MJ-Kobe pics equally legendary. The MJ-Scottie pic really represents something. It shows that no matter how undisputed Jordan was, no matter what his level of amazingness was, he needed Pippen every step of that era. The Kobe-MJ pic is one of my all-time favourites, because it perfectly shows the passing of the torch, from MJ to the Mamba, better than any picture ever has.

Michael Jordan’s free throw line dunk is pretty iconic
-
Jxmmy acting like my english teacher. Sees an meaningless photo. “This has way more behind it”
-
For me, I love hearing the story behind the pictures and what it reveals. I was most "moved" by the Kobe/Michael picture because in the height of battle, Kobe is performing, asking and learning!!! Brilliant man and at such a young age.

This is fantastic. What a great job you’ve done. As an amateur action photographer, I appreciate your recognition of the importance of some moments frozen in time. Thank you for this
