2 is more than 1.

But not more than 3.

this dude took 2 lists before Lebron's championships to make a point.

Also, ranker :roll: :roll:

Bro, the discussion is dead, its over. There is no legitimacy to it anymore. Kobe is not a top 10 player.

[Magic 32]

this dude took 2 lists before Lebron's championships to make a point.

Kobe would still be top 10 on Bill's list and how would you even know where SLAM would rank Lebron?

Also, ranker is certainly more legitimate then 5-10 anonymous stat nerds from ESPN.

Yeah...because Lebrons career is over...jesus christ...it's just basketball...stop putting Kobe on some pedestal and get a life.

[Magic 32]

Yeah...because Lebrons career is over...

In terms of winning sure.

Are you're saying that the accumulation of numbers will make up for 2-3 more losses in the finals?

And by the way, I think most Lebron fans (not stans) would admit that Kobe is top 10.

Or maybe I'm just giving them too much credit.

[Mr Feeny]

It's over:lol
The whole world sees how Kobe is nowhere near top 10:lol

Kobe stans melting dowm:roll:

The ranking was all done by Amir Elhassan, a stat nerd and front office member of the 2010 Suns.

Intelligent humans who understand basketball don't put much weight into team results when analyzing the game of individual players. They understand circumstance is far too difficult a variable to make it a reliable criteria.

Beta fanboys obsessed with protecting the legacy of a man they don't know who would rape their sisters if he had the chance, care more about "finals losses."

[Nash]

Kobe stans are acting like the poster boys for denial right now.

You're not talking to an intelligent human being. That's your problem right there.

[Cocaine80s]

I don't have kobe or lebron in my top 10
And youre from Australia so your basketball knowledge is irrelevant

[G0ATbe]

Literally only LeShit stains on ish give a shit about these lists. They're obviously made by guys who hate Kobe. Doesnt change the fact that most NBA fans around the globe recognize Kobe as at the very worst, a top 2 GOAT.:pimp:

Also, ranker is certainly more legitimate then 5-10 anonymous stat nerds from ESPN.

:biggums:

I thought it clearly said their panel for this was like all 100 of their NBA people.

And yes, it safe to assume that SLAM would have Lebron ahead of Kobe now, thus knocking Kobe out of their top 10 as well.

ESPN has 5 guys who know stats? I'm not sure that's true....

[G-Funk]

The one that's going to matter is the one that's gonna be held by the NBA

[Genaro]

I already knew Lebron stans take the ESPN word like it's from God, but this thread is ridiculous. Everyone knows ESPN hates Kobe and this rank is full of flaws.

[Mr Feeny]

It's incredible how Lebron is already considered top 10 while Kobe is not even close. And Lebron is only 31 :lebronamazed:

The gap is going to continue increasing. And make NO mistake about it Kobe stans, CURRY will leave your hero in dust within 3 years:lol he's already a better player than Kobe ever was. Now is the time to keep racking up MVP'S and winning titles with high stats and good efficiency:bowdown:
