Oh alright.
Russell and Bird would be the only Celtics in most arbitrary Top 10's, as they should.... Don't think I've seen anybody try to push another Celtic in the Top 10, unless they trying to make a push for John Havlicek and/or Bob Cousy.

Yeah, he has Havlicek at 14 and Cousy at 21. That might be a little high for both, but neither are absurdly high or anything. I'd probably have Havlicek in the 20-25 range somewhere, though.

Ive been a long time fan of the game since the first game I watched back in 1987. Thanks for assuming I was born yesterday.
My join date kinda makes your statement look a bit stupid. Are you special?

It's totally subjective, and he has every right to come to his own opinion about a player based on other evidence and criteria than what you deem "acceptable".
It's like me saying that people who believe Kobe is an all time great are akin to those who supported the Iraq war initially because the media told them so. Why do people have to get so personal when it comes to debating players? Why can you not just debate someone sensibly without resorting to crap like this?
Honestly grow up.
Doesn't matter, just because one is a more serious subject than another doesn't mean it does not indicate just how contrary and baseless his argument is. He has the right to have an opinion but the problem is that he, just like every conspiracy theorist, act like his opinion is actually based on facts and EVERYONE is clueless besides him and its SO OBVIOUS that he is completely correct.
It just sounded like a very similar thought process to me. No, your example is still being the extra contrary weirdo because its still telling me that kobe is only a great because of the media.

Yeah, Hondo does seem a little high, but it's unreasonable.
Cousy is tricky to rank for me. Just going off accolades and legacy, what's to say he shouldn't be out off the Top 15-20 ? Top 10 perhaps ? He was also getting GOAT claims during his time too... not that I agree with that, but it was being said. In context, he seems overrated, but it really comes down what your criteria is.

At first I thought it was a gimmick, but now I think he really is mentally unstable. He's far too consistent for it to be a gimmick.

Like I previously said, just go right ahead and do so. They're just going to come right back in here and do the same thing as before. They have nothing to add to the the thread, so their only purpose of posting in it is to derail it. And the idiotic post above proves my point. Lock this thread.

You're the one starting a new "Why Kobe is great" thread every other day.

Roleplayers like Horry and Fisher don't apply to this discussion. They helped their teams win for sure but they were never The Man / Co-The Man like Kobe was / is.
Kobe got swag and I love it.
Yeah...the FAKE Heat fans, aka Lebronytes, are mad as ****. And that's exactly why all they can do is come in here and troll and try to derail the thread

Made that high school varsity squad
Re: Kobe Bryant: "Nobody has won more championships than me in my entire generation."
LOL kobe still got these haters mad i see. It's hard for them to accept the fact that he's a general consensus top 10 all time player. that he has 5 rings. That he's overachieved and accomplished way more than anyone else has. And it kills them to know kobe has a chance to win more rings lol. funny.
