Where does Kobe Bryant rank all-time?

[bison]

#2. After Jordan.

[dankok8]

I usually have him around #10 but I've seen convincing arguments for as high as #5 or so.

[Airupthere]

5-10

[clipps]

1- MJ
2- Kareem
3- Magic
4- LeBitch
5- Bird
6- Wilt
7- Bill
8- Kobe
9- Hakeem
10- Duncan

#2. After Jordan.

If Kawhi was a bitch, he would of joined the bitch LeBron on the Lakers. People forget that LeBron was begging Kawhi to join lakers while Kawhi was still on Raptors.

Kawhi just didn't want to carry Trashcal Siakam for the rest of his life and didn't want to play for the rebuilding spurs, perfectly reasonable.

kawhi is a bitch. i dont mean that is shook - he's just not a true GOAT.


he's fearless but he's not a leader. zero social skills - if he had any leadership skills whatsoever the clippers win the ring last year GUARANTEED. they had a squad that could ball.


watch them suddenly win if they get lowry aka a REAL leader that would hold paul george accountable if he's choking his team out of the series.

kawhi could win 6 more rings and I'd still rank kobe above him

He's on the third tier. Note that there is no "order" for players in the same tier.

Tier 1: MJ
Tier 2: Lebron, Kareem
Tier 3: Wilt, Magic, Shaq, Kobe
Tier 4: Bird, Duncan, Hakeem, Bill Russell

I would move Bird to tier 3 other than that I pretty much agree with this

Now, he's in a worse position, having to carry Paul George and Company until his contract ends.

There were about 15 absolutely top tier players in this league that stood above others. Getting those players = wins for their teams. A lot of other players were great, but not necessarily great enough to take their teams to the absolute top of the league multiple times.

Kobe is definitely one of those 15, though I'm not sure at exactly what position. He won 5 rings and was instrumental for at least 4 of them.


Mikan
Russell
Chamberlain
West
KAJ
Bird
Magic
Jordan
Olajuwon
Shaq
Kobe
Duncan
Lebron
Wade
Curry

[Gohan]

I have Kobe too 10 for sure right over iverson. One of the best players to ever play this game. Surely one of the most exciting to watch

[Boris Pen]

Ahead of Lebron.

Lebron
