You're welcome
Re: Stop it with this Kobe "The Killer" myth (Jordan and lebron comparison)
Fans have an appreciation of great offensive performances against actually quality defenses (sub 100 defensive rating).
The myth is that Jordan and Lebron faced similar ones as Kobe.

"Pay attention to efficiency" they cried.
Ok.
"Ignore the efficiency of the defenses they faced."

Haters!!!
Haters!!!
All of yous is haters!!!
On the real tho, any objective fan will know this. One of the main reasons some feel Kobe is overrated and has been shoved down our throats for decades. He had been given the mantle before he even accomplished anything. NBA and its affiliates has been pushing their Kobe agenda for a long time now.
To be fair, he hasn't been the only player they've tried shoving down our throats. He is deserving of 'some' praise, just not THE praise he gets.
