Kobe Bryant Is An All Time Great, Unless You Do The Math: VICE

[Killer Instinct]

I cant believe yall would stoop this low to hate on Kobe

I can.
Grown men turn into bitter baby mama's when it comes to Kobe.
Some of these folks sucked their teeth when he announced he was going pro at 17 years old. The jealousy ain't no joke.
He got that cosign from Mike (who everyone wanted to be like) at a young age and did it all arrogantly.
This shyt runs deep.

Not a Kobe fan but this is a terrible article and the metric used doesn't even factor defense, which Bryant was better than Drexler and Miller. Bryant isn't one of the top 10 players ever, but he's pretty clearly in the top 15. He had gripes, but he was one of the four best guards ever. To say he wasn't better than Allen and Miller is just silly to me.

Win shares are achieved on defense too.

Nobody in their right mind would use ONE metric (a heavily flawed one at that) to determine the value of a player.

This is the only thing anyone with sense could say to disagree with the point of this article.

top 10?

Barkley
David Robinson
Kareem
Karl Malone
Shaq
Lebron
Hakeem
Bird
Magic

Those are 10 players that you cannot put beneath kobe... I would love to see your top 10 and an explanation

Barkley, Malone, and Robinson as nice as they are don't belong above Kobe. Bron is my favorite player but he's not done yet. He will be in there when he is.

They're all big men I'd hope so

 

[Smoking With Cigarettes]

I don't really get the point of their article. We know Kobe's a volume shooter. We know Kobe isn't really efficient. We know he isn't as good a shooter as Miller and Allen. We know he only won titles with Pau and Shaq. Are they trying to say that effects his spot in history?

Why are you responding without proving anything... oh cuz you can't.. Like I stated before Malone, Barkley, and Robinson > Kobe and you can't and will not disprove it

Yes, cause they're all big men you idiot. Kobe scored more than all those guys tho.

Only because he shot more. There's no value in a missed shot.

 

[Illuminatos]

No way in hell is Kobe Top 10.

Duncan
Wilt

Russell
Shaq
Lebron
Hakeem
Bird
Magic

And at the rate he's going, Curry might also end up being ahead of Kobe when it's all said and done LOL!
