Nice video .... but why bother? Only those that know nothing about basketball believe that Kobe is better than Jordan. They consist of casual sports fans, brainless twits who will never learn no matter how hard you try and Lakers fans.
Believe me it's not worth it.

@blackadam06 espn/abc hyped up that series against the celtics this year....Boston's entire frontline was decimated hurt w/the exception of KG, and danny ainge destroyed that team's chances of competing for a title because he traded away the anchor of the defense, Kendrick Perkins, that was not the real celtic team Miami faced this year...the celtics were done when they had to rely on a 39 year old shaquille oneal who's body finally broke down due to 19 years of wear and tear...

@blackadam06 Lebron was not hurt during that playoff series against the Bulls in that first round...that was hyped up by espn...no excuse for a guy who's suppose to be the best in the game and dishes out a 15 point game against boston last year in a crucial game 5, then an 8 point meltdown in this year's finals...you'll be holding your breath yet again as he will fall short next year...because he refuses to work on his game, the flaws that are killing him during major playoff competition

@blackadam06 like I said, I don't get into any more discussions about the kobe/lebron debate, that hyped was unleased ad nauseum from 2007-2010...that debate (which wasn't one) ended for me during the 2009-2010 season...as far as Kobe's performance in the playoffs last year, yeah, we didn't win this year, but we won back to back titles....and he was playing w/an assortment of injuries, meanwhile, espn hyped that fake elbow injury that lebron never had during the 2009 playoffs..

Lemme repeat my self: that's what he's done in games like that for his CAREER, not just in a "few playoff games". This is what he consistently does..
How quickly U forget that he only scored 17 pts in the last 2 games vs DAL this year, and forget that for his CAREER in "elimination games", his team's only have a 8-9 record (losing record).
And when will U kobe fans learn?!! Titles (rings) are a TEAM accomplishment, not a gauge for individual greatness...SMH

@blackadam06 I aint worried about them stats....lolll......all the great players have had a number of sub par play off games, but they wasn't hyped up like LBJ...he's the most hyped basketball player in the history of the nba, and for someone who's marketed to be THE KING, he's supposed to have rings....this will be his 9th season in the league and he's ringless, even after joining a team to form a squad that features 3 of the top 10 players...we'll see what happens next year...lolll

B4 U diss LBJ for disappearing vs DAL, look what kobe's done for his career in big games:
37-97 (38%) in Game 7's
38-108 (35%) in 5 title clinching games
333-808 (41%) in career FG%
FACT: he's shot 40% OR LOWER in 5 finals and has ONLY shot 36% with a 23ppg 1apg avg in ELIMINATION games during the post-shaq seasons.
U diss LBJ for only scoring 8 pts vs DAL, but kobe has 13 career playoff games of 8 pts or LESS. Not to mention he only scored 2 pts the ENTIRE 2nd half of Game 4 vs DAL
-
@boredfun91 do you still honestly believe this after that 8 point meltdown in game 4 of the finals...lolll.....numbers don't mean anything when you don't perform in the playoffs when you're expected to prove that you are "the king"....that's why there's only been a handful of champions, because you can't hype your way to rings...until lebron develops a post game, play w/his back to the basket, develop a mid range jumper and hit crucial freethrows, he's not going to win a title....those are facts
-
@scorpionJB No. Lebron is a better player than Kobe. How exactly do you define "talent"? Because from every statistical measure, Lebron is a better player. More efficient scorer, better passer and rebounder, better thief and shot blocker.
In terms of all time legacy, I take Kobe but it's extremely close. As for who is a better player, its Lebron.

i think its right that even players back them against mike were actually scared and wanting to be like mike, form there on..of course mj will have a advantage thatbeing said,its a lame excuse for some to make that arguement mj didnt face tough defense, playes..i eman, duh?!! thats ignorance!!haha!!
thanks for this video!!
playesr like Barkley faced him head on...and other greats did, so its just a lame argument at all
these young bucks/ ignint fools think Kobe is more skilled than MJ because of his exaggerated forced fadeways and fancy crossovers......MJ used simple fundamentals to tear you apart, and shooting? before the '92 finals started, they said Drexler was a better 3 point shooter, look what happened.....6 treys by MJ in the first half......Kobe holds the record for most treys in a game =12, the difference? Kobe chucks more 3's, haha

Jordan has a "BOTTOMLESS" hunger to win that is rare in sports today. He's the epitome of what a complete athlete is all about and his fundamentals speaks volume that no one can ever compare. Its time to end the comparisons once and for all cuz for Kobe, LeBron and the rest of todays standards are no where near the level that Jordan had and his genius for the game surpasses any player in history in which he dominated throughout the years NIGHT IN AND NIGHT OUT !!!!!
