Why Mike and Kobe are Nothing Alike

Mike was always about the win. Kobe was always about the storyline. If Kobe couldn't be in the spotlight, he'd just as soon lose. Mike openly states that he'd rather face the Blazers because of team basketball than have the Mike vs Magic show. No way in hell Kobe says that. Kobe always wants Kobe, however he can get there.

Hopefully when he retires all this shit can be put to rest and we can forget anyone ever made such a shitty comparison during a desperate time in the NBA.

Jordan is/was a politician. He said the Blazers b/c they were better and he didn't want to disrespect them and give them fodder; whereas, the Lakers were a cupcake team by championship standards.

I was about to make a thread about this; but since I'm talking about it here, here's the example I was thinking:

MJ knows that LBJ is the real competition to his legacy. So, he naturally puts him down ever so easily and elevates Kobe, who he knows doesn't measure up. When you bank like Jordan does, you make these calculated statements.

And now that I think about it in that capacity, LBJ's actions towards Jordan makes more sense:
