Jordan > Kobe + lebron combined

[stretch]

Stretch....aka INCH WORM is a Kobe Hater. No need to argue with him, we know his bias.

Stealing terrible insults from a lame poster.

Lame.

America, eatin' my lunch from a single bowl in my parents basement, where I'm livin'. Happy Birthday, I'm forty-three.

Don't want to waste those precious calories...chewin'. Jesus come move my jaw for me, help me get my sloppy food down my throat.

[Allanon]

Lame.

Get Kobe's out of your mouth, bag, and give an actual argument as to why Kobe is more talented than Jordan, aside from the .8% better 3pt percentage. We have all aknowledged that Kobe has more shooting range than Jordan did, although Jordan was also capable of hitting 3's when he needed to. Maybe its you who needs to go back and do your research on Jordan.

And yes, I saw the great MJ play.

Fail.

Angry morning today eh brah?

Lame.

[robbie380]

The comparison is actually over their careers, not just seasons. Kobe is close in almost every category with many years left.

I didn't say Kobe had BETTER stats, I said he's close

And the books not closed yet.

Fail.

you said he was more talented. worse stats does not indicate he was more talented.

i feel i needed to clear things up because i have been getting alot of hate mails from fellow lakers fans after making that post, i need to clear up a perception that i am not trully a fan, or a bandwagoner, lets put it this way, if i am a bandwagoner, i would have hop on the next wagon to miami, i have stuck with the lakers through thick and thin all the way from the magic days, but is it too much for me to stat the obvious that jordan is a more complete player than kobe? I love kobe, and i want to see him win the next 6 rings to cap off a magnificent career, but at this moment in time kobe have never proven that he could be the player to take over the game and win it all for the lakers, while there's something about jordan that whenever he have the ball in his hands you expect something to happen all the time, and i use to hate jordan so much but watching him and kobe plays it's easy to pick out who is more valuable to his team and who is not, and till kobe has the mindset that he must win games at all cost and instill the same feeling of invincibility and fear like jordan did to his opponent and fans, kobe will never be like mike, but he is still one of the greatest sg of all time without a doubt, i am not a poser and i bleed purple and gold, so stop sending me hate mails for stating an honest and truthful oppinion, there's more ways to be a fan and it doesnt have to begin with homerism.

Hahah, homerism? You stated that Jordan is greater than Kobe AND LeBron COMBINED???!!!??? That'd be crazy for even Stretch to say and he hates Kobe.

You are obviously not a Laker fan with 2 posts so far, the first stating Jordan > Kobe + LeBron and this one saying "I'm not a poser".

Lakers sweep and these are the only 2 posts from a "Laker Fan" who is not a poser.

That's not true i feel like the lakers are on the verge of something special this year, i stumble upon this forum and i see alot of lakers fan here making very ignorant remarks, obviously havent watch 90's basketball or was too young to, all i am saying is that not all lakers fan are hip hop teenage kids, who knows nothing but lakers basketball, even cleveland fans are classy enough to know not to hype up lebron to jordan level, so all i say is stay classy fellas, chances are that i have watched basketball since before you were born.

i see alot of lakers fan here making very ignorant remarks

"MJ > Kobe + Lebron Combined". That's like the kettle calling the pot black.

We'll see how many positive posts you have about the Lakers in the coming weeks fellow Laker Fan. You're batting 0 for 3 so far.

[The Franchise]

Sportswriters and Gms compare Kobe to Jordan because they have to sell todays product, but if you had to pick a 29 year old Kobe or Jordan to start a team with 999,999 times out of 1 million the choice would be Jordan.

[robbie380]

Haha, Kobe24Forever nice 1st post as a "Laker Fan" hahah.

Kobe has more skills, Jordan won more...but Kobe still has another good 4-5 more years left. Let Kobe have a few more years to get more rings and then we'll see how he stacks up with Jordan.

Kobe's as close to Jordan as there has ever been, I can't think of any other shooting guard better than Mamba.

[td97]

Look at what LeBron did to the Celtics in game 7.. Tried to put his team on his back, and carry those guys to the conference finals. Almost beating the Celtics himself, without half the talent that Kobe has around him, nor a hall of fame coach.

45 points in game 7 on the road.

Kobe goes out like a little punk once again..

Jordan >>> Everyone right now..

LeBron >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Kobe right now..

And if the championship success comes like it should with a player of LeBron's caliber + his numbers, it will eventually be LeBron >>>>>>> Everyone (including Jordan)

That kid is only going to be 24 years old..

Like Tim told LeBron after the finals: "This is going to be your league real soon"

[J.T.]

Kobe has a better shot than Michael.

LeBron is better at getting to the rim than Michael.

Michael has watermelon balls, while Kobe and LeBron have acorn sized balls.

Lebron still has the potential to make a name of his own without Jordan's shadow, since Lebron's got a unique game of his own, and unique talent.

Kobe on the other hand 7 -22 FG 1Assist 3 Rebounds, gets his blown out 39 points in an elimination game as the leader of a talented squad....It's all downhill from here.

[KidCongo]

Who had the better series vs Boston?

Kobe or LeBron

[DazedAndConfused]

Didn't Lebron shoot like 19% from the field those first two games? Kobe would be crucified if he ever did that.

[ManuTim_best of Fwiendz]

Celtics had the luxury of guarding Lebron doing 5 on 1 with a horrible offensive Coach.

What's Kobe's excuse for his 30-40 percent games? He got single coverage most of the time more than Lebron did.

Lebron + pile of puke forces a game 7, nearly outdueling Paul Pierce matching his offense with 40 + points.

Kobe + 1 time All Star + Odom + deep youthful bench/shooters + MACHINE = two humiliating losses and two eked out wins with help of home cooking.

[m33p0]

Who had the better series vs Boston?

Kobe or LeBron

you wouldn't be asking this question unless you know the answer.

bronbron laid out everything on the floor in his series against the Cs. and because of that, he won't be crucified.
