so you callin MJ/Magic/Bird/Wade/Dirk homos as well?

Kobe is the consensus best player of this era according to his peers.
I assume that a lot of you Kobe fanboys are homosexual because the way you all are so overprotective and intolerant of anybody who doesn't worship him as you do seems to point to a love for him that goes beyond basketball. Take what you're doing for instance. It's almost as if you want me to keep my opinions to myself because others don't agree. My opinions of Kibe should not hurt your feelings my man. If you disagree then simply debate and point out where you think I'm wrong. Telling me that other people don't agree with what I'm saying doesn't mean anything to me. Mike, Bird, Magic, Wade, ect can all feel how they want to feel and say what they want to say. I've got a a mind of my own. These are the some of the same guys who trashed Lebron's decision to go to Miami to play with Wade and Bosh, saying that the decision would prevent him from ever being in goat contention. I take what these cats say with a grain of salt, especially when they're talking to the media. It's all political, these guys have agendas just like a lot you posters. Barkley is really the only guy that will keep it semi-real.

Duncan continually disrespected

being the greatest of a generation isn't just about stats and rings. It's about global impact, being the biggest draw in the league, being a cultural icon etc. Kobe was the face of the NBA of the post-Jordan era.

Tim Duncan is like Paul Allen, Co-Founder of Microsoft, we know he's great, he's just behind the scenes great..... Kobe was Bill Gates :smugdraper:

I'd take Kobe 10 outta 10 times. See how easy that is. You act like going against the grain makes you right. This is all personal opinion. It just so happens that more people in the know (former/current players, coaches, GMs) pick Kobe over anyone else in this era.

Why is it hard to just accept the fact that you Kobe haters are OUT OF STEP with people who've played and coached the game. All the former/current greats and coaches continually heap nothing but praise on Kobe. It must really bother you guys that your favorite players favorite player is Kobe.

thats that ether right there. thats the realest thing posted in here. alot of these nikkas was in middle school when kobe started crushin buildings. im 24 n ive seen kobe in every all star game since i was 9.... think about that just think about that i was 9 n hes still dominating. how can anybody say anything negative about that

The problem with the Kobe v Duncan argument is that you can't be considered a better player than the 1 who has put your team out of the playoffs CONSISTENTLY!

'99 Spurs swept the Lakers

'01 versus the Spurs
Gm 1: 45 pts 10 rebs 3 assts on 54% shooting
Gm 2: 28 pts 7 rebs 6 assts on 46% shooting
Gm 3: 36 pts 9 rebs 8 assts on 52% shooting
Gm 4: 24 pts 2 rebs 11 assts on 53% shooting
SWEEP!

'02 versus Spurs
Gm 1: 20 pts 2 rebs 4 assts on 44% shooting
Gm 2: 26 pts 4 rebs 6 assts on 48% shooting
Gm 3: 31 pts 6 rebs 6 assts on 48% shooting
Gm 4: 28 pts 7 rebs 3 assts on 37% shooting
Gm 5: 26 pts 8 rebs 5 assts on 50% shooting
Lakers win 4 - 1

The Spurs won in 6 in '03

'04 versus the Spurs
Gm 1: 31 pts 10 rebs 4 assts on 39% shooting
Gm 2: 15 pts 5 rebs 8 assts on 41% shooting
Gm 3: 22 pts 6 rebs 6 assts on 54% shooting
Gm 4: 42 pts 6 rebs 5 assts on 56% shooting
Gm 5: 22 pts 4 rebs 5 assts on 41% shooting
Gm 6: 26 pts 7 rebs 7 assts on 50% shooting
Lakers win 4 - 2, backdoor sweep

'08 versus Spurs
Gm 1: 27 pts 5 rebs 9 assts on 52% shooting
Gm 2: 22 pts 5 rebs 5 assts on 59% shooting
Gm 3: 30 pts 5 rebs 1 asst on 57% shooting
Gm 4: 28 pts 10 rebs 1 asst on 48% shooting
Gm 5: 39 pts 3 rebs 3 assts on 53% shooting
Lakers win 4 - 1

Kobe is 4 -2 against Duncan in the playoffs. And he was THE DOMINANT factor in at least 2 of those series, maybe 3. So if two players are equal in greatness, but player A has prevented player B's team from getting to a championship 4 out of the 6 times they met, how can player B possibly be better?
