Ranking Kobe Bryant's 5 NBA Championships

Legacy forever - Kobe Bryant's name up in the Staples Center rafters

There is a reason as to why both of Bryant's jerseys hang from the rafters. He won 3 NBA Championships wearing number 8 and the other two in the Lakers number 24. He scored 10,000+ points wearing each of these numbers and that speaks volumes of how incredible a player he truly was. Kobe Bryant was a fierce competitor. His stats prove how great he truly was. His legacy will always live on. His loyalty was unquestionable and his love for the game was unparalleled.

To add to his trophy collection of NBA titles, All-Star awards, dunk contest champions, Finals MVP, Regular season MVP and Olympic Gold, Bryant also won an Oscar for the Best Short Documentary. Some people are just born to be champions, aren't they?

When Kobe was asked which ring was the most special, he also said that he ranked the 2010 championship at the pinnacle because of how difficult it was, coming back from 3-2 to win 4-3 and that too, to beat the Boston Celtics.

So I guess we cannot disagree with the Mamba now, can we?
