Nah.
now is the time for all the noobies/nostalgic delusionites to accept that technically, Kobe = Jordan. period. this is the best scorer in the league by far, he is complete as , great passer, never gives up on defense as a guard and BLOCKS SHOTS, does exactly what his team needs at any given time, hits more DAGGER shots/clutch baskets than anyone, is unguardable and can will hismteam to victory better than ANYONE. Boston last year guarded him better than ive seen anyone guard him, and he lost because his team had too many non-black players i key roles while Boston had nothing but big strong athletic guys at every position.
but if they meet again in the Finals LA will RAPE them. i hope the Spurs have enough to beat them and they certainly can, but seriously its time for all these JORDAN = GOD people to accept that Kobe is all that Jordan was.
Nah.
False. He is the closest thing we've seen though.
Kobe sucks...j/k
so i see the Jordan = untouchable for all-time infallible GOD thing continues...oh brother
You know what this means? Drexler > both
Take it from Iron..
he's a Laker fan...
Saying that... he must be a Kobe fan to be a fan of the Lakers....I mean c'mon that's all the Lakers are...
But he isn't Jordan...
He should feel happy that people would think he's the closest thing to him
6 rings gots
Lol, I get called a Kobe hater on Laker forums.
He's almost there.
If Jordan = kobe, Pippen would have got pissed and left before MJ retired.
Imagine he can even surpassed him and build his own legacy. He's barely 30, at this age MJ was just starting to win championships. Kobe certaintly has the team to win championships in the next couple of years.
Jordan was 27 when he got his first le.
I agree with pretty much most of what you said except for the racial part.
i thought Jimmy the Greek was deadI agree with pretty much most of what you said except for the racial part.
he's getting very close. But i think next year he will be just as good. His post game has improved immensely in the past couple of years. Just needs to work on better shot selection. Sometimes he gets into "81 point kobe mode" and you'll see him chuck a shot from the same spot three posessions in a row with a man in his face, albeit, not nearly as frequently as he used to. Still good to see some people appreciate him as a player, because when he is gone, a lot of people will have wished they spent less time criticizing and more time marveling.
I will wait until he wins a le with out shaq.

Kobe has a lot of mileage in that body. He's played over 12 seasons and i don't think he can play as well as Jordan did in that 2 three-peat.
Jordan even took 2 years off and that really helped the Bulls win the second three-peat.
However if Bynum continues to progress, it's going to be his team.
Why the would we rival fans marvel & hug Kobe's nuts?
We Spurs fans are privileged enough to have a player of our own who's achieved more than Kobe & more importantly meant to the team more than any player that i can think of.
If Championships is the determining factor Robert Horry is better then both of them.
not even close
People do some ing research and compare some ing numbers and acheivements before you start spewing bull .
Kobe is so amazing its not even funny, I HATE when the Spurs play the Lakers because the guy is flatout one of the greatest players ever. But MJ is on a whole nother level, a player would have to do A LOT to be compared with him.
I commend Lakers fans who are realistic about this. Because Many aren't.
not close, but the closet thing to him.
It would take at least 3 more rings, about 3 more MVPs (regular season and Finals), a couple of DPOYs for Kobe's career be compared to MJ's. Kobe has a great opportunity and the Lakers are poised for a long run barring injuries. In terms of skills though, I think Kobe is way up there and there are aspects of his game that are better than MJ (and vice-versa).
