Jordan brought alot of attention to the sport and made it huge, but overall Kobe is a better player. Put Jordan and Kobe both in their prime 1 on 1, and Kobe would win. :hat

I'm a Laker fan but seriously stop with this nonsense. Kobe isn't even close to Jordans level. It's just the truth, if Kobe can actually step up and lead a team to a championship maybe I'd consider it closer but still, Kobe has to do something first.

:lmao:lmao. Please...stop....I'm laughing so hard it hurts. Seriously..whatever you're on, you should stop it. Drugs are bad for you. Jordan would only be another T-Mac or Carmelo if he played in today's league at his current age..lol. In his prime, Jordan would ALWAYS be the best player on the court..bar none. Including Kobe. And I have nothing against Kobe..I think he's a great player..he's just no Mike.

Jordan scored 63 points at Boston in his second year in the league against one of the greatest teams in NBA history. Get a clue fevertree. Kobe's strength is his scoring yet Jordan averaged 30.1 pts per game in his career. Kobe is just a copycat. Kobe's great, but he's no MJ.

The new rules have helped the Kobes , Melos whatever tremendously.

Furthermore, I would like to see Kobe and Co scoring 53 points, avarage 22/5/5 or scoring 2 winning baskets like Jordan did at 38.

Please quit man.........

Back on the subject, If Kobe keeps playing the way he has the past month or so this discussion will be dead fast cause the Lakers will only be playing ball for a few more weeks. Kobe has had some downright terrible games lately and has taken some downright terrible shots late in big games. Like last night in Portland...

Um...wow...yeah...not sure if biased even covers it. I like Kobe..he's a great player...he's not near Jordan's level, nor will he ever be. Jordan won 6 rings, and dominated the game in an era where the guards were not tended to or treated as superstars like they are today. Back when Jordan was playing, it was the big men who were tended to. Kobe plays in a league where the rules have changed, including the hand check being a penalty, along with others, which makes it a LOT easier to be a guard, and he still can't match Jordan. Jordan averages more points and more assists over a much longer period of time, including his years in his late 30's, in a league where the guard was treated like the bastard stepchild of the league. Jordan > Kobe...it's not even close.

SERIOUSLY, WTF ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT??

Im sorry, Kobe is up there, but he is still a few grades down from the likes of Jordan. Either Kobe lovers are biased or they where too young to see Jordan's greatness.

At this point in time Kobe barely has the right to hold Magic's jock strap, let alone Jordan's

Some of these post are almost laughable. MJ would dominate the leauge today just as he did in the past. in his last season at the age of 40 he averaged 20 pnts a game on 44.5% fg shooting..averaged 6 rebounds, almost 4 assist and 1.5 steals per game and had i believe 4 games of 40 or more pnts..tell me how many players can do that in the league right now??? and he did it at 40 wayyyy after the prime of his career. nuff said for me.

You are an absolute idiot...wow...flopper? Jordan? You don't remember correctly, I guess. FLOPPING DIDN'T WORK BACK THEN, douchebag. Guards didn't get away with it. that's what I was trying to say about the rules changing to help the guards. Quit trying to make shit up. The truth? Nobody with a right mind would say Kobe is better than Jordan..nobody. That would be like saying Rajan Rondo is better than Chris Paul. Absolutely stupid. Give me ONE REASON..ONE THING that Kobe does that is better than Jordan..JUST ONE! Please..I'm begging you. Less rings, less stats, worse at getting the team involved, drove off the only reason his Lakers won any rings (Shaq)..I could go on and on.

Just curious..how old are you? Did you even watch Mike? If so, this argument wouldn't even be happening. The rules changed to help the guards, dude..the hand check rule..so on and so forth. Back in Jordan's day, a guy guarding him could put his hands all over the guard. Now, you can't even touch him. It's a HELL of a lot easier being a guard now than it was then. Kobe has had better teams, but still has less rings and less stats..because he has less talent..period. He's just not as good...but that's not a knock on him...no one is as good as MJ.

well look at it this way, without MJ, pipen has non, without Kobe, Shaq has 1, hence MJ > pipen, Shaq > Kobe. MJ >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> shaq+kobe

and i know Dwade played lights out, but thats what shaq does for u. He commands a double team down low, so the jumpshots get easier for players like kobe.
My opinion is that Pippen was as good as he was BECAUSE of Mike. Without Mike, Pippen is NOT one of the 50 greatest of all time...period.
