MANILA, Philippines – If there's any recurring storyline in the decades-old National Basketball Association, it's that game recognizes game.
We know that the Golden State Warriors are on the top of, well, their game. But before their team's star to shone bright, Kobe Bryant and his Lakers did it first. Matter of fact, five times before the Dubs. So it was only fitting that the Blue and Yellow mounted a tribute for someone helped shaped the league and the game.
Watch the full clip of the Warriors' tribute below:

The clip, which also featured Lakers legend -- and the league's "Logo," Jerry West -- who voiced his thoughts on Bryant's legacy that spanned 20 years.
Bryant, too, had some nice words for the Oracle Arena, which he will play in, for one last time on March 6, 2016.
