@Kenny1984 oh god who gave u a computer...its sadening to see ppl suck kobes cock so much :(

[Kenny1984]

@JBobomb Like i said MJ was more efficient because he didn't take crazy shots like Kobe. Or should i said he doesn't have the shot making ability like Kobe. Im not trying to get in a debate about MJ vs Kobe. I still believe Kobe is a better scorer than MJ base on skills and talents . And im basing this on video proof not stats because stat does not tell the true picture. Anyway that's where it end . MJ vs Kobe debate usually doesn't go anywhere lol

[JBobomb]

@Kenny1984 i know that kobe could get a shot off cus he's that great, but in reality michael gave out a better career efficiency wise. if kobe played like michael i feel like he could be better than him, but he doesnt. so in reality michael had a better career. trust me kobe is like my life. my mom likes michael and i always fight with her about it, but if u talk about reality michael had much more efficient career.

[Kenny1984]

@JBobomb I been through many MJ vs Kobe debate. usually it doesn't go anywhere . It all come down to stats and im telling you stats does not speak for everything.

In my opinion. Kobe has a better offensive skills than MJ and Kobe is a better scorer.

I know you would probably disagree but i've been watching Kobe greatest games and MJ greatest games. Prime Kobe is much better at getting his shots off under difficult situations and over defenders. 

[Kenny1984]

@JBobomb You can look at one of MJ greatest game. The 63 points he had against Celtics. Jordan had Dennis Johnson , Danny Ainges guarding him. Neither of them are taller than 6'3 and neither were fast moving laterally to prevent MJ deadly first step.

And then you look at Bird and Mchale . Those guys were piss poor at defending.

Now compare that to Kobe 58 against Bobcats , 63 against Mavs or 81 against Raptor. Kobe were being defended by 6'7 guards , double , tripled team

[Kenny1984]

@JBobomb

If you look at the players of the 80s , 90s and compare to the players of the 2000s and today. The players from 2000s to today are much bigger, faster and better with moving laterally . Players from back then were not as athletic and quick compare to today players. Again im speaking in general not for all.

KObe face defenders that are much faster and bigger than MJ defenders

MJ was smart with shot selection but he also had luxury of little and unathletic guys guarding him

[Kenny1984]

@JBobomb Yes much shorter and less athletic defenders. Let me give you example. And these are just speaking in general not all. In early MJ career. MJ had Danny Ainges, Joe Dumar, Isaiah Thomas, Dennis Johnson guarding him. These guys are well under 6'3 and has very poor footwork/lateral speed. And when they put taller defender on MJ it was actually worse. Guys like Craigh Ehlo

Byron Russel, Terry Porter, Hershey Hawkin, John Stark, etc. Very poor footwork defenders and undersize
