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

Your right. They are all significantly better than Kobe.Steph, Wilt, Russell, Bird, Duncan are not better than Kobe...
People just have an emotional attachment to Kobe, on both sides, which makes it hard for people to rank him fairly.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

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.


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