Is kobe the most glorified player ever?

Jordan missed the playoffs more than once, so Magic > Kobe > Jordan.

LOL, Laker fans pulling up Jordan's WAS days when he was 40 years old, comparing to Kobe at his prime.

It's only fair to compare a 40 year old Jordan to a prime Kobe

Come to think of it, I agree with you.

It's all about cir stances my friend. If Jordan joined the Lakers out of high school with Shaq at the top of his game, the offense would have run through Shaq. And if you try to claim otherwise you are an idiot or a liar.

Ok, so then call those first three rings for what they are--second banana rings. Dont do stupid like compare him to MJ because Kobe only has 2 rings as a main guy to MJs 6. Kobe only has 2 rings as a main guy to Duncans 4. Kobe only has two FMVPs to MJs six and Duncans three. Kobe only has one MVP to MJs five and Duncans two. Kobe being a great Robin to Shaq doesnt put him over Duncan or anywhere close to MJ.

Thanks for pointing it out FkLA, I just realized a Laker fan flat out admitted Kobe was a 2nd banana to Shaq in the early 00s.

All this revisionist history of propping Kobe up as an equal to Shaq in the 01 and 02 championships were utter lies to promote their idol up to a level where he is nowhere close to.

That said, 10 years from now, when Laker fans have their new god in another franchise player, they will no doubt throw Kobe under the bus if they help prop up their new god, just like what they did to Shaq to prop up Kobe, and what they did to Chamberlain to prop up Shaq, and what they did to Kareem to prop up Magic.
