kobetards be like "because he's a difficult shot maker"
Yeah they have no actual basketball reasons as to why he should be ranked top 5.


@Stick Up Kid

Kareem has 6 rings, 6 MVPs, 2 FMVPs, 11 All Defense, 15 All NBA

Kobe has 5 rings, 1 MVP, 2 FMVPs, 12 All Defense, 15 all NBA.

Kareem holds the all time scoring record. Has 1 more ring and 5 more MVPs.

Ive always wondered what it is about Kobe that creates such variance where people have him ranked.

I've seen him anywhere from top 15 to 1

And I don't even mean the trolls but like the older media guys too
People just have an emotional attachment to Kobe, on both sides, which makes it hard for people to rank him fairly.

IT WAS OVER FOR KOBE AFTER COLORADO .. EXPECTING MEDIA CACS TO LIKE HIM AFTER THE RAPE TRIAL IS LIKE EXPECTING OJ SIMPSON TO LAND MOVIE ROLES AFTER THE MURDER TRIAL

N THEY THINK THEYRE SO SLICK .. BUT QUITE THE CONTRARY

I ACTUALLY LIKE THIS BETTER THAN IF THEY RANKED HIM 5 OR 6 .. BECAUSE THE ABSURDITY HIGHLIGHTS THE AGENDA THAT MUCH MORE

IF U TOLD ANYONE ON THAT TOP TEN LIST THAT KOBE WASNT TOP TEN THEY WOULD SLAP U IN THE MOUTH N FLAT OUT CALL U RETARDED

HOW HARD THE MEDIA CACS TRY TO IGNORE THAT IS SO OBVIOUS THAT EVEN A MENTALLY ILL CTE PATIENT WOULDNT BE ABLE TO DENY IT

Kobe Haters:

Kobe had only 2 Finals MVPs, Kobe played with Shaq, Kobe lost for years until he got Pau Gasol.


Same Exact People:

Kareem's 2 FMVPs aren't an issue. Playing with Magic isn't an issue. Kareem losing for years isn't an issue. Not winning w/o a top 75 player isn't an issue :troll:

Kobe's knock was that he was selfish and always tried to get his first. He also played in LA. There's a lot of love and hate with him. I definitely think he's in the top 10.

Because, maybe, Larry Bird (Who's career was basically done after he turned 30 in '86--Kobe was League MVP at 30) ain't better than this;
  • 25/5/4
  • 5 Chips
  • 2 Finals MVP's
  • MVP
  • 18x All-Star/4x All-Star Game MVP
  • 11x First Time
  • 2x Scoring Champ
Some people act like Kobe was Bonzi Wells. Plus, I think Kobe's legal troubles cause media figures to tone down the praise.
