I call him washed up but every now and then he'll show that greatness of a couple of years back.

Jokes aside, the dude is definitely one of the best and always did his best and brought it. He never quit on the lakers no matter what scrubs the office put next to him so a toast to Kirby :toast

Definitely not the best of his generation. That was Duncan and Shaq. He is third.

Whether anyone cares is irrelevant. I can say "I don't care if the earth is round!" And the earth is still round.

Every shot Kobe misses sets an NBA record. Most missed field goals in nba history.

tbh though, he's an awesome player. his longevity is his most amazing characteristic. his numbers have been remarkably steady through his 30's. thats nuts. imo he's literally tmac with his prime lasting 4x as long

nope. had it right the first time. his true prime was in orlando, where he had little to no help on that team. once he got to houston it just seemed he and yao would take turns suffering injuries. dude was an animal in his prime, and don't you forget it. scored as well and as efficiently as kobe ever did while being a better rebounder/distributer

my point is, that injuries are a part of the game, you dont recognize a players potential or judge how good he is if hes injured. call it luck or hard work or what ever, but tmac never quite cut the mustard.. there is no comparison between tmac and kobe, t mac never even got out of the first round in orlando..

A true great. A mix of John Havlicek and Karl maloneof shooting guards.

I already marveled at kobe's longevity and the duration of his great play. his numbers are remarkably consistent throughout his career, at least the last 14 or so years of it. i gave him his due props.

definitely 2nd best shooting guard in the modern NBA and a top 20 player ever. Props to him.

but i prefer to watch tmac over kobe, he has so much variety of moves he can score on you anywhere on the court that it look easy to him cause of the lazy swagger

He didn't instantly show greatness like Shaq or Duncan in 1997, but from 2000 onwards, he was easily No. 3 in the league (Shaq & Duncan were better). You've got to give him top billing from 2006 - 2009 though.

He is arguably (Shaq & Duncan come close) the best player of our generation. If Lebron rings multiple times, the post Jordan era will belong to him. It's as simple as that.

tmac was da true mothafucker when he was in prime tbh. nigga played an all-round game and might be the closest thing to lebron the world has seen in the past 20 years. dude was injury afflicted through the majority of career, and he spent quite a few years in houston where he was always the receiving end of blames and criticism, when he was obviously a scapegoat. had tmac joined the spurs or lakers or if he hadn't got traded to the rockets nigga would've had a more successful career than ray allen at least

i think bron was already the league's best player from 07 onwards. the best kobe we've seen was the 06-07 version of him when he could drop 60+ pts in a game, but even at that time he wasn't often considered the #1 of the leauge while duncan was still in his prime. dude might be the league's best scorer but he ain't close to being the best overall imho
