Magic revolutionized the PG position
But Kobe was a complete player.
We all know how iconic Magic is but I don't think he would've played 17-18 yrs, let alone 20. And Kobe was a warrior on the court, playing through all types of ailments. Add to that Kobe faced better competition in the West than Magic w/ less talented teammates than Magic. What Kobe accomplished in the 20 yrs in LA, really 16 (Dell Harris screwed him as a rook & he was never the same after the Achilles), he's one of the most talked about players, even in retirement
