Jordan and Kobe going one on one is like comparing Arnold Schwarzenegger with Lou Feringo(?) - both were classy, both were big, but Arnold just had that extra push that made him better! This is the case with Michael and Kobe: Michael can win a championship all on his own while sick (see Utah vs. Bulls game), I do not believe Kobe has that kind of drive.
Offtopic but, Did I put a review of Michael's book here? I read it, it shows what he is made of... it is not all physical, a lot of it is mental. |
First off, wanting "fair" discussion regarding Kobe and Jordan isn't even fair to Kobe. You can't compare him to greatness like that.
Second, for you to insinuate someone better than Jordan is blasphemy! I absolve my son and as penance, you must speak Air Jordans while looking at the banner for this review board.
Ok, ok, I see I am beginning to make some enemies on this topic. Let's get some things out in the open. What made Jordan the greatest, and why is Kobe not quite there yet? Please be specific.
KOBE YOUNGEST TO SCORE 17,000
Kobe Bryant showed signs of his old explosiveness and took over in the fourth quarter, signaling his surgically repaired right knee is getting better.

Comments: I would choose Kobe for my team because he has better shooting from any place in the court. Jordan just flies. But Kobe could do anything. Kobe is better than Jordan he doesn't have enough NBA championships but he will get at least 2 more within 2-3 years and he will be a legend that will be remembered just like Micheal Jordan. No matter what. Kobe all the way, go Lakers!

Comments: Kobe is not even to be called the "next Mike" or better than him!
Michael Jordan is the man of basketball and it ain't got anyone better now or even in the near future. Go Michael!
