"Official" Reason's why Kobe > Magic > Jordan

[TheNextGen]

I wanted to list facts on why Kobe is the greatest NBA player ever.


"Its cuz Jordan had less competition." - pass1st


"I'm not sure Jordan was better than Magic, it depends on who you ask." - pass1st

:lmao


"Jordan had Rodman, Pippen and Longley. Magic only had Kareem." -pass1st

"Gatorade > Vitamin Water....hence MJ had more help then Kobe" - pass1st

[rayjayjohnson]

:lmao longley

[Jeff Van Gundy]

:lmao not only is pass1st unfunny but stupid at the same time. He must have been lefty's understudy.

[namlook]

Dumb analysis by one random unknown guy who might be a pimply faced 15 year old deserves a thread?

this is the legendary help Jordan had in his career...notice the abundance of white players and the lack of an offensive big.

yes. let us proceed.

[TheMACHINE]

"Kobe = TOSB/Lazy Phil Jackson
Magic = Young/Hungry Pat Riley
Jordan = Young/Hungry Phil Jackson

Therefore Jordan had the most help with coaching and Kobe carried Phil Jackson to more rings." -pass1st

Well tbh we can just rag on you and your emo public ignore list, but everyone knows how pathetic you are so no thread for you.

[TheMACHINE]

^^ wow

[Bynumite]

Damn... Nash and Dwight managed to put the spurstalk Kobe hate fest at an all time high :lmao

Please, take down the Kobe sticky thread, nobody cares about that TOSB

Spurfan proceeds to make 10 Kobe threads per day :lmao

Those that rank MJ over Kobe are correct. But this team pic doesn't actually help that argument. Yes there are plenty of white guys and that reflects the type of NBA MJ played in he also had the benefit of playing a bunch of slowfooted whiteboys too

[stretch]

Longley??? :lmao

Only Kareem? yeah, James Worthy, Byron Scott, Bob McAdoo, AC Green, Mychael Thompson, Jamaal Wilkes, and Michael Cooper were apparently completely average players. Not to mention the fact that Kareem is probably the second greatest player in NBA history.

No shortage of those type of players during Kobe's reign tbh.

i thought he also listed Steve Kerr, but pass1st deleted all his comments from the threads...thats why his post count has gone down.

"Gatorade > Vitamin Water....hence MJ had more help then Kobe" - pass1st


Those statements just can't be true ......... :lmao

[Ashy Larry]

I always say if you take away the two fan bases (Chicago and L.A. Lakers), the other 28 would more than likely side with Mike.

I was rollin' on that Crip Line through downtown and couldn't help but listen to two 18th street gang members say Kobe is better than Mike because he score 81 points in a single game .......

I wanted to debate them but they were probably strapped and I'm not gonna die over some dumb shit like Kobe > Mike

[TheMACHINE]

oh..don't forget

"Kobe had to play against team defense with constant double teams. MJ just had to go 1vs1 against white TOSB dudes." -pass1st

[Ashy Larry]

One of my favorite lines most Kobe homers use is the infamous: Kobe played against a zone

Iggy has had a long career.

Just Machine's shtick after I referenced his inability to comprehend the game of boxing and mocking his obsession with Pacquiao, tbh. They haven't been able to find where I said any of that yet :lol

Son, #00 had 23,000 points at the center; as you can see, Kobe's not the only one to win rings with a dominant 5, real talk.

Not really my top 10 anymore, but I never thought Jordan wasn't #1 or Kobe was near top 5

LOL the thing is that yes Kobe fanbois may have some points. But the only one that matters is MJ is better than Kobe. Yes MJ had some advantages but give MJ Shaq or Pau and he still wins at y least 6 ..and 6>5

I'm your understudy TBH :lmao

"Youngest to 30,000 points....just sayin'..."

[Jeff Van Gundy]

Nice bump.

:lol Jordan had Longley and Harper

[Ashy Larry]

brutal ...... never go with that youngest bullshit .......... go with the fastest to 30K ......


Wilt
MJ
I think Malone is next
Cap and then Bean

Nonetheless, still a great accomplishment......

:lmao :lmao you was deep in it...I've been in situations like that..trust me lil stature niggas talking non stop shit are always strapped:lmao always...I had a kid pull a gun on me on the court and I was thought it was my day...His homeboy talked him down and they left...I was scared shitless that day...

but I don't think Kobe was better than Mike all-around...but I do believe that he was better at certain things than MJ....I don't think MJ was that much better than Kobe...a prime Kobe could easily beat a prime MJ and vice versa...let's be real MJ never had to play against a player of Kobe's calibur..NEVER...on the other hand Kobe has played players that were way more athletic and gifted than what MJ faced at his position...Given all the defensive players that earned a living just guarding Kobe I'd venture to say Kobe is the only one that could have played in that 80's era...but MJ is closer to having pure African blood in him and he was relentless like an African tribesman on the hunt...I bet if we traced their lineage MJ would be pure African bred / blood while Kobe has some white blood in him and less mongoloid or aggressive...and that would explain the subtle difference between the two ..but he was dam near close...

[Brunodf]

Kobe was a better role player than MJ.

MJ averaged 0 points as a role player
Kobe average 25.

That's a fact, ladies and gents

:lol Is this a joke? Malone as the third best NBA player of all time? Wilt as the best? Kobe as the 5th?

Edit: Oh, I see, you're talking about the 30K club

Agreed, but Kobe came in not getting a lot of PT his first two years (rightfully so because EJ was a good player and deserved to start - at least until Kobe emerged). For Kobe to get there as fast as he did is a testament to his greatness, tbh. He would have gotten to 30K early last year if he came in the league playing starter's minutes IMO. He's just that good.

[LkrFan]

:lmao :lmao Is this a joke? Malone as the third best NBA player of all time? Wilt as the best? Kobe as the 5th?
Can you read? Where did he say Wilt was the greatest? He was talking fastest to 30K numbnutz. :lol

[Juggity]

I already edited my post with that info. The topic is about GOAT players, so I assumed.

It would of course, be preposterous to include Kobe on a top 5 GOAT list.

If you're going with a GOAT list, the only two names that can be at the number one spot is Jabbar or Jordan. People forget how dominant Kareem really was and is probably the most overlooked top 5 player ever......

malone is number 3? how do you have someone that never got it done in your top 3? yeah personally he was a great player.. but top 3?

[midnightpulp]

For Kobe to get there as fast as he did is a testament to how much he shoots, tbh. He would have gotten to 30K early last year if he came in the league playing starter's minutes IMO. He just shoots that much.

Fify cent.
