LOL.
How could you argue such an open ended opinion? Care to counter it? What ability did Jordan have that Kobe hasn't displayed at this point? Seriously? the only thing Jordan did more than Kobe was win. and it can be argued that in a TEAM sport, that's the least individual statistic.
Are you serious?? First off, Jordan averge PPG is higher than the other guy.......FACT. Secondly, Jordan's average PPG in the PLAYOFFS is higher than the other guy.......FACT. Not to mention with Jordan he average more in the playoffs than he did in the regular season. It's foolish for anyone to any try to equate Jordan with the other guy or even the other guy with Jordan more importantly, cause it's a lose lose situation either way. By the way, Jordan did alot more than just win more than the other guy and that's putting it lightly. We can start with Jordan's defense for one, then we can go to the regular season MVP's.........while the other guy only has a measly 1, then we can go to Finals MVP, which is where you and a few others on your side get completley left in the dust. Besides, Jordan had his own identity, too bad we CAN'T say the same for the other guy. Are you starting to see the bigger picture now champ??
I find it ironic that people cite the fact that defenses allowed more hacking.... but then say Jordan is miles ahead of Kobe's defense in a different Era.
I find it ironic that people cite the fact that there were no zones in Jordan's time... but then say Jordan was a better scorer than Kobe in a different Era
(when we all know Kobe is the better shooter, but that neither of the two men is stoppable AT ALL one on one
)
But..
I find it PATHETIC that people get upset when Kobe is compared to Jordan... as if they aren't roughly the exact same size, play the same position, in the same system, with the same coach. I'm not a Stan because I brought up Kobe. I'm a logical observer of the sport.
As for your actual claims... I never once said Kobe rivaled Jordan's production, just like I'll never claim Kobe rivals Lebron's. That's a totally different argument. I said they had similar ABILITIES. Dry your eyes and re-read what I'm trying to point out. Jordan has ALWAYS been THEE guy on his team. that an extra 8ppg right there. Kobe had to develop and so Kobe's only spent the latter half of his career in the dominant role. No denying that. So all those numbers are a wash to me. That has nothing to do with what I'm actually campaigning. That's comparing apples and oranges really.. I'm talking about peak level performance, not career stats. And at the big moment, in a clutch game, at this point either man is capable of winning it. There is nothing Jordan HAS done at his peak that Kobe couldn't do at this point. Accept it and move on, cuz the game will keep moving with or without you.
No, what's funny is Kobe fans can't get over the fact that he'll NEVER be loved like MJ was so they get all hurt.
That's just weak
. As a kobe fan who was a Jordan fan for years and hated young Kobe... that's just plain gay. As a grown man, I could care less if either of these men are "loved". They ain't my parents. They ain't paying my bills either. they just entertain me. I have ZERO vested interest in wither of them outside of an arena. I think this quote just back fired. The fact that you would even conceive the thought of another person having such a bromosexual thought makes YOU look bad, not whoever you were attempting to describe.
