FiveThirtyEight: Once And For All: Michael Jordan Was WAY Better Than Kobe Bryant

[10bandz]

@Sccit stop making Lakers and Kobe fans look bad nikka

 

[Bilz]

KOBE WON WITOUT SHAQ = HE WAS THE CLEAR CUT 1ST OPTION

SHAQ WON WITOUT KOBE = HE WAS THE CLEAR CUT 2ND OPTION


U SLOW FUCC

So you're saying Wade>Shaq>Kobe

 

[Mantis Toboggan M.D.]

So you're saying Wade>Shaq>Kobe

This dummie is trying to compare 30 year old Kobe to 35 year old Shaq

 

[Sccit]

It's bad enough to try arguing Kobe over LeBron, but argue him over Mike and to try arguing he was better than Shaq as of 2001? Every time that you think they can't get any dumber, his stans sink to a new low.

SO SHAQ DID NOT SAY KOBE WAS THE BEST PLAYER IN THE WORLD IN 2001??

U EVER READ MADMENS BALL BOOK? HEISLER DETAILED HOW PHIL WANTED THE OFFENSE TO RUN THROUGH KOBE IN 2001, BUT SHAQ WASNT HAVIN IT .. SHAQ THREATENED NOT TO REBOUND AND PLAY D IF THE OFFENSE DIDNT RUN THRU HIM
.. BUT LEAVE IT TO THESE CASUALS TO TELL A LAKER HISTORIAN WHAT WENT DOWN WIT MY TEAM.


WHATS MORE EMBARASSING IS THAT U GUNA SIT HERE N ACT LIKE KOBE HASNT BEEN WIDELY CONSIDERED THE BEST PLAYER OF THIS GENERATION ABOVE LEBRON BY HIS PEERS, FROM MJ TO KD TO WADE TO DIRK TO SHAQ .. PRETTY MUCH ALL THE CURRENT GREATS. BUT ESPN HAS LEBRON OVER KOBE, SO WE GUNA TAKE TIM LEGLER AND JALEN JACOBYS WORD FOR IT N LAUGH AT ANYONE WHO SHARES THE SAME THOUGHT PROCESS AS THE GREATS ......

I love how Kobe retires and mad nikkas still hate on him though

This nikka Kob butthurt more fans than anybody ever.

Everyone thought he'd never win without Shaq, nikkas have been hurt ever since

This nikka Kobe literally the most influential baller since MJ, half the NBA stars play vicariously through Kobe's attitude and approach to the game, yet nikkas act like kobe was just and bum and that Duncan's imprint on the game was stronger

Even MJ said Kobe was the closest to him

Where was Shaq in Game 4 of 2000 when Indiana was about to tie up the series

We gonna act like Kobe didn't dominate 2001 and 2002 playoffs

We gonna act like Kobe wasn't going up against fellow HOF'ers in the 2000-2002 Finals, while Shaq was facing bums

We gonna act like Kobe's career without Shaq wasn't better than Shaq's career without Kobe

We gonna act like Shaq didn't have Penny and couldn't close the deal

We gonna act like LeBron didn't join up with the 2nd best player of his generation, and if Kobe did that it meant he would've teamed up with TD, which would've won them a lot more than 2 titles in 4 years


I hope Russell Westbrook gets traded to the Lakers, he's cut from that Kobe cloth and needs to win more titles than KD

 

[Sccit]

yeah MJ didn't really take 3's like that. Kobe attempted like 4x or 5x more 3's than MJ or some shyt, thats what fukked up his percentages.

Kobe's True shooting% is very close to MJ's though.

EXACTLY .. GUESS WHAT FOLKS! DEANDRE JORDAN IS MORE EFFECIENT FROM THE FIELD THAN LEBRON ....


HMMMMM



I WONDER WHY THAT IS??

 

[Bilz]

U GOT IT BACKWARDS BRODIE

The transitive relationship you brought up says otherwise.

 

[Rollo Goodlove]

Analytics don't mean a thing Jordan is the goat but Kobe proved he could be touched

I seem to remember Kobe fans being very upset about that quote back then because he was obviously being facetious.
