Amateur: Kobe fan talking down Duncan makes no sense.

[Kidd K]

Kobefan needs Duncan to take out LeBron because Duncan's already above Kobe on any logical man's GOAT list, and Kobefan knows LeBron will leapfrog Kobe with another ring. Kobe's 5 rings aren't valued the same as Duncan's, Jordan's, Shaq's, or even LeBron's. They are valued about as much as Wade's last two rings were, which is to say, not very highly for him personally.

Kobe is above LBJ on GOAT list still, but if dude 3peats that's over.

hakeem the most overrated pos ive ever seen and how his ranked, only 2 good peak years like he played like that his whole career...only 93/94-94/95 season he was relevant, every other season b4 it he was nowhere to be seen

That's stupid and so are you.

[Arnold Toht]

Kobe, Kobe, more Kobe. He is after all the NBA's active leader in rings.

[Xevious]

He actively soaks up the Laker's cap space.

Except beating Magic in 86 and playing against McHale/Parish/Bird in the finals?

Beating Aaron BrKs and Dwight Hward on the way to les.

Aside from Duncan, Kobe's never beaten anyone, not even a top 20 great. Last time he matched up with one (Dirk), he got obliterated.

Damn

I got Iverson and Robinson in my top 20... they fell to Kobe.

I got Iverson and Robinson in my top 20... they fell to Kobe.

Why?

Admittedly, Robinson had the all around skills and athleticism to be a top 10 great, but it never all came together in the post season. He was basically Karl Malone. All time great in the regular season, underwhelming in the playoffs.

Iverson was a cancerous chucker. You like to blame Duncan for the '04 Olympics mishap, but Iverson was the one shooting 38% against 3rd world countries and playing defense.

Both Iverson and Robinson had better careers than Malone, yet he's considered a top 20 player. Iverson's at ude eventually destroyed him but as a player he was one of the best on both ends. Robinson would be ranked higher if he hadn't the bed against Hakeem. People will never forget that ass whooping.

Let me see you make a better list of compe ors that Jordan played against. You cant.

Magic
Shaq
Malone
Stockton
Drexler
Barkley
Isiah
Ewing
Payton

You're confusing him with Fisher, tbh.

[unforeseen]

You're confusing him with Fisher, tbh.

Kobe 4 = Fisher 4.

[DMC]

Bryant has been reduced to a wall plaque here, where trolls point at him and say "see... rings" in the post season because there's been no movement from him in 3 years.

[unforeseen]

Fisher playoff games - 259 > Kirby playoff games - 220

[chunticakes]

I don't know why lakaluva takes so much pride in an egotistical piece of in kobe. The mother er wouldn't piss on your sand n igger ass if you were on fire son.

[Baron Davιs]

Don't see how you give Duncan top 5 but Kirby is fringe top 10.
Facts: Since Duncan entered the league Kirby has a 4-3 advantage against him.
Kirby has won both Western Conference series they played against each other and has 8 of those games to Duncan's 1.
Also Kirby's playoff stats against Duncan's in the post-season:

IDC about either but mid manipulating shiiit to cater to Timothy, tbh..
