better dunker at age 34. Kobe or Jordan?

kobe [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BN8h_LiEzIA[/url]

Jordan [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NlwUFA5Sric[/url]

keep in mind. kobe had 17 straight years on his legs. jordan only had like 11 or 12 with a 2 year break inbetween

kobes legs got a lot of rest when he was warming the bench.

All kobe does is dunk these days, not aesthetically pleasing imo

lol kobe by age 34 played 45,390 season minutes, 8,641 playoff minutes

combined 54,031


by age 34 jordan played 35,887 season minutes, 7,474 playoff minutes

combined 43,361

kobe played 10,670 more minutes than jordan by the same age

the average season kobe plays 2700 minutes

10,670 divided by 2700 equals 3.95 years


meaning kobe had an extra 4 years worth of mileage on his legs


[SIZE="6"]and even with all that extra mileage. he was still throwing down dunks better than most rookies [/SIZE]

Kenneth my brother i usually admire the way you prop up our god kobe especially when the Lefag stans are around. but couldnt we just give it a rest for a day ?? let the haters refuel and search for some more ammunition. rather then trying to feed them some bait.

:roll: :roll: :roll:

At 34 in the 1996-1997 season, Jordan got 70 dunks, which would rank 3rd in Kobe's entire career.

Well, atleast MJ overcompensated in one area...

i saw them both and MJ was more athletic from the start and still was it at 34. No big difference but i saw one.

Doesn't mean much. Jordan's miles were MUCH harder as he busted his a** on both sides of the court every time he played; in practice, games, etc. He also drove MUCH more ferociously to the hole. Ask DWade and DRose how that affects your longevity.
I always got the feeling Kobe didn't have to work as hard, w/ Shaq and the big men he always had, where I always felt Jordan gave everything he had on the court and had to, to win pre-93 and especially pre-91.
Also, you don't think Jordan was busting it on the court everyday from 18-21 before he got in the NBA. He was going at people like Worthy, Perkins, etc. left and right every day. People seem to think wear and tear only happens in "the minutes of the games". Intense pickup games all day are gonna take more out of you than playing 35 minutes with breaks, etc. in a controlled situation. Anyone who's played ball all day at the park, in the gym, etc. knows what I mean.
Don't get me wrong, love Kobe, but Jordan's body took WAY more abuse per game, and every time he played.
