The 10 year anniversary of the "changing of the gaurd" game Kobe 42pts in 1 half

[STATUTORY]

Bias definitely would've been to MJ what LeBron is to Kobe. Reggie Lewis would've been to MJ what Tmac was to Kobe, too. Just didn't happen. Tragic.

90's MJ / Pip Chicago Bulls v.s. 90's Bias / Lewis Boston Celtics would've been something to behold in a seven game series.

Oh, and Penny and Hill didn't get plagued w/ injuries until MJ was done. So don't be making up stuff to support your Kobe kock sucking agenda.

MJ dominated and sodomized on national tv in the Finals, the next best player at his position (Drexler) who was basically to MJ what Wade is to Kobe.

MJ coincidentally retired the year that Penny was breaking out.

1994-1995, peak Penny would have embarrassed MJ and shattered that Nike hype. Lucky for MJ that he was playing softball that season. Penny started falling off shortly after that tho

when your most famed rival is CLyde you know you played in a sorry era. Clyde couldn't even go left.

Ecept Wade is a far better player...and can actally Dribble without looking down at the ball....unlike Drexler.

Not disagreeing. Wade is better.

Drexler was still quite the player. To be fair, Wade can dribble, but Clyde could shoot and board better.

LOL dude retired when Penny was a rookie. SMH @ "breaking out" as if to avoid him. Competition against Penny and Hill is one of the reasons he was motivated to come back.

MJ faced Penny in '95, '96, and '97 ... Penny's best years pre injury and still out played him. The fukk are you smoking, kid ?

Swept dat ass in '96, with a prime Shaq too.

Drexler wasn't his only comp. MJ also bent Magic and the Lakers over in the Finals w/ the backdoor sweep the year prior.

- Jordan s fortunate he played the watered down 90's vs 6'2" John (rocery bagger) Starks...and Craig Ehlo..

- 39 year old Jordan (the same age as Grant Hill and Jason Kidd) after taking multiple years off to rest throughout his career could never hang with 24year old Kobe....as seen in the video...

but heck...Jordan couldnt even guard teenage Kobe either..so your point is moot.


next

And Kobe couldn't handle 40 year old "bad knees" MJ either. He was trying his hardest on defense too

Not in 2003, the year of the "changing of the guard" according to OP.

- Ho please.....save your sidewalk physchology...

- MuF@ka dropped 42 in 1half and sent MJ to the bench crying...

- Go watch MJ's HOF speech again......he started crying when Doug Collins stood up....prolly had a flashback of the "changing of the gaurd game" ( when Collins stood up to put MJ on the bench)

That's funny. Kobe in the 2000 finals, averaged 15.6 ppg on a HORRIBLE 37% shooting. Roleplayer stats. Shut down and outplayed by Reggie Miller and Jalen Rose.

Kobe was playing at the same level as Austin Croshere in the 2000 finals! LMAO.

No shit sherlocks.

It's just hilarious how enfatuated Kobe stans are with Kobe and not the Los Angeles Lakers.

Propping up his game against an old Jordan in a season where his TEAM crumbled in the second round.

This Stu Lance is annoying. To this day.

This is an all-time hyperbole thread -- on both sides.
