Skill is Footwork, Off Ball Play, Finishing with the Off Hand, Offensive Skill-set, etc.

Oh ok, gotcha. I don't think Kobe's more skilled than Jordan. But he's probably the closest there has been, or will be. He just doesn't have the off the ball ability. I'm just saying you'd have to be a retard to say Kobe isn't one of the most skilled of all-time. See LeBird, etc.

Kobe has plenty of off the ball ability.
But running of screens takes it out of your legs.

In comparison to Jordan, not as much. Cool your jets.

And they're all means to an end. If they're not conducive to you getting points at an efficient clip; then you're not skilled where it counts.

Very good NBA starter
Re: Kobe 3-19 tonight
There's nothing wrong with him. Lakers are trying to keep that pick so they're sitting him but his poor play is because he is old and surrounded by trash players so he still has to do everything when he's out there...

Yeah, but who has the bigger schlong though? Maybe you need to settle that argument again.

Verticle?
Re: Kobe 3-19 tonight
There is a difference between most skilled and most fluid and aesthetically pleasing to the eye.
Sure, Kobe is a skilled player, but it is more the fluidity of his game that is pleasing to the eye. Even his misses and bad plays tend to look nice.
I wouldn't say he is a more skilled player than Bird, MJ, Oscar, Bron, etc.
