[FKAri]

Despite Kobe having the advantage of learning from and copying MJ, Kobe Bryant is just a worse version of Michael Jordan. The end.

Anyone know how I can get this picture to show up full size?


FAIL, f*ggot. :yaohappy:

Can't even troll properly without f*cking up, retard. :roll: :hammertime:

[knicksman]

Btan stans still melting down. :oldlol: Just deal with it losers. If the greatest shooter can be nullified, how much for a guy who cant shoot. Almost all the time, shits the bed when it matters. Thus 2/6:oldlol:

Not really. Someone posted my material on your post, and it reminded me that I should update Kobe's career stats since he's now retired.


And I know you're secretly fapping to this material.

He didn't make the thread though.

I did. Plus he already used your material am I right?

You better edit your posts in my thread because you are being triggered.

You kept begging everyone to not post. :facepalm Are you that easily triggered?

[G0ATbe]

You cant compare stats,accomplishments from different eras. Especially the 90s with how weak it was. Eye test wise Kobe is the superior player in every facet.

[Mr Feeny]

That's u believable:oldlol: Jordan is literally ahead of Kobe in every single statistical measure in the playoffs :oldlol:

That is just absurd:lol
GOAT gonna goat :rockon:

Jordan has never done a 360 dunk in game

Kobe is a better dunker than him

Kobe is an underrated in game dunker. Dude has some serious posters.

[Stringer Bell]

Kobe did just about everything well in the sport. Jordan did most of them even better.

[f0und]

its funny how all kobe kids have to hang onto is kobe's 3 point shooting advantage. they scream to the heavens about it as if the gap is massive.

then you look at the numbers and he only has a .2% advantage in the reg season. has a .1% disadvantage in the playoffs and an even bigger 5.3% disadvantage in the finals. lol that one regular season marginal advantage is all they hang onto while jordan practically dominates in everything else. yeah sure, kobes on jordans level alright. :lol

[Cold soul]

Kobe did just about everything well in the sport. Jordan did most of them even better.

Well said Kobe had few things in his game that he did better than Jordan, but overall Jordan was better player.

Kobe is not close to being a better 3 point shooter than Jordan :oldlol:

Bulls Jordan has a higher 3fg%
Jordan has a higher 3fg% in the playoffs
Jordan has a higher 3fg% in finals.

Heck, why stop there?Jordan also has a higher fg% and ft% in playoffs and finals. :(

[Mr Feeny]

Well said Kobe had few things in his game that he did better than Jordan, but overall Jordan was better player.very few. Jordan was not just a better player, he was overwhelmingly better.

No video?

Jordan has never 360'd in a real game

[f0und]

so the tally is

jordan-33
kobe-4

lol and some of those stats arent even close. its a *ucking joke how anyone can put kobe anywhere near jordan. the most telling stats are those advanced stats. holy *hit! just look at them!

[Stringer Bell]

Gotta take what Magic says with a grain of salt. Jordan did nearly every move imaginable, except 360 dunks. Not in games or dunk contests. Now suddenly he does a 360 dunk on David Robinson in practice?

Magic probably just making the story sound better.

Comparison of MJ & Kobe as 1st Options:


DRtg, PPG and Pace were all lower during Jordan's 2nd three-peat (1996-1998) than Kobe's championship years without Shaq (2008-2010), in both regular season and playoffs:



League-Wide DRtg in REGULAR SEASON:


1996: 107.6
1997: 106.7
1998: 105.0

2008: 107.5
2009: 108.3
2010: 107.6

League-Wide DRtg in PLAYOFFS (each year is link to source):

1996 (http://www.basketball-reference.com/playoffs/NBA_1996.html#all_misc_stats): 107.4
1997 (http://www.basketball-reference.com/playoffs/NBA_1997.html#all_misc_stats): 106.8
1998 (http://www.basketball-reference.com/playoffs/NBA_1998.html#all_misc_stats): 105.6

2010 (http://www.basketball-reference.com/playoffs/NBA_2010.html#all_misc_stats): 108.6



Yet Jordan still had better stats:

BRYANT 2008-2010 FINALS:. 29.2 ppg.. 41.3% fg.. 2 championships.. 2 FMVP's

Notice that MJ's efficiency was greater, even though Kobe's efficiency was unfairly boosted by carrying a SMALLER LOAD:

Not even close

[MEB2kDeez]

Nothing wrong with being the remix to the GOAT.

Remixes typically do fall short.

[toprange]

MJ's supreme athleticism is what seperates the two. That alone boosts MJ's already great offensive and defensive skills. MJ is greater than kobe because of that. We only compare kobe to MJ in terms of the raw offensive and defenseive skills, their IQ, will to win and competetivness that allowed them to perform at the highest levels and win title after titles

Who?

[PP34Deuce]

I actually think while MJ is better all time of course, Kobe was more explosive when he was on.

Like Michael could dominate every quarter and go 30-35PPG in his sleep. Kobe would have some bad shooting nights but the volume he was capable of in short bursts.... I think he was a slightly more explosive scorer than MJ was.

[Derivative]

lol I almost forgot about this

[Smoke117]

The fact there are kobe stans who think it's even close between him and MJ is bad enough...but the fact that some seriously believe him to be the 2nd greatest player of all time? That's just stupid hilarious.

[Da_Realist]

Kobe's numbers stayed almost exactly the same from reg season to playoffs to finals. Jordan's kept going up.

[Da_Realist]

To go from scoring 30 on 50% in the regular season to 33.4 on 49% against teams that have 2 weeks to strategize against you and especially keeping in consideration the increased physicality of the playoffs all while also increasing his production in all the other areas of the game indicates a greater gap than just an extra 3.3 points. GOAT playoff performer. :pimp:
