he probably won't even go down as the best laker of all time
He already is in terms of skill.....a couple more rings and he will be regardless. The Kobe being a better scorer argument will never be won byKobe fanboys. Simple reason people look too much in to stats. Kobe definitely is more skilled on the offensive side of the ball...he's nowhere near asproductive or efficient though so it's really hard to make that statement. Same thing with Melo. He's much more skilled than Bron....yet he getsnowhere near the credit he deserves because of his production.Originally Posted by Lbruce89

MJ has accomplished much more than Kobe has, not arguing that.
But its like a rapper who sells millions and millions of records, does that make him the greatest rapper of all time? No, it doesn't.
Kobe Bryant has assets to his game that are BETTER than Michael Jordans...Mike might have rings, but we're talking about skill here. Kobe > Michael Jordan.
Better shooter, better scorer, better footwork, better ball-handling, etc.
I'm going to get a million stone faces, but i don't care. I'm not just a biased Laker/Kobe fan either. This is coming from a basketball fan. When it is all said and done, kobe bryant will be the greatest basketball player of all time.
Kobe > MJ

Bookmarked for future reference when some Kobe apologist claims that noone here has said that Kobe is better than MJ.
He will not surpass him.. Neither in terms of accomplishments, nor in terms of how good he was. MJ between 1988 and 1993 was just a better player than Kobe wasor ever will be.
Kobe Bryant has assets to his game that are BETTER than Michael Jordans...Mike might have rings, but we're talking about skill here. Kobe > Michael Jordan.
Better shooter, better scorer, better footwork, better ball-handling, etc.
Skill? Yeah, yeah, bla bla bla. Kobe might have accomplished more, but in terms of SKILL, 2000-03 Tracy McGrady > any Kobe.
First thing is first: Kobe was never as good a shooter as MJ was in 1995-96. Other than that season, Kobe was a better outside shooter than Mike pretty muchall other seasons. Mid-range? Never.
Better scorer? Don't make me laugh. MJ has the highest regular season scoring average in history. And if that wasn't enough, his playoff career scoringaverage is 3+ points higher. And if that wasn't enough, his finals career scoring average is even higher. His scoring consistency was scary. He scored indouble figures for 800 or so straight games. And his field goal percentages as a SG were higher than those of most big men.
What about defense? What about the fact that MJ could be a triple-double machine and could average 8 rebounds and 8 assists over a season, when Kobe has nevercome close to this? Just forget it, any logic has no effect you and your kind. It's like talking to a brick wall who just keeps saying "but he hadbetter skills".Prove it. Oh, that's right. YOU CAN'T. Instead you just mention it and wait for one of the Team Lakers signatures toagree with you, as if that will make your statement more right.
Man, you guys and your obsessiveness to constantly compare Kobe to MJ is annoying. It's sad how you can't accept the fact that he will never be as goodas MJ, but will still have a great career.
It's when people say Lawrence Taylor can't cover, if Jordon started shooting threes you would thank god.
let me be the first to give you two your first stonefaces you'll receive, out of the many.Originally Posted by FreddyPee
