Re: Jordan vs Kobe, the numbers speak for themselvessaid by The Dv8or:Part of the problem with your thought that Kobe is a top 5 all time player is that the NBA has done just about everything to forget their storied past. I'd like to hear who the others are on your top 5 list besides Kobe and Jordan. 1. Jordan 2. Wilt 3. Oscar Robertson 4. Magic Johnson 5. Julius Erving 6. Larry Bird |

Larry Bird wilt couldnt do it in this era... he would get thrown around he we all know he had no jumpshot... larry bird couldnt play defense at all... all he had going for him was his jumpshot... kobe is easily better than both of them... Kobe is a top 5 player with you like it or not he's proving it night in and night out |

Please go find ONE legitimate sportswriter who claims Kobe is the best of all time, or anywhere near. There's not one legitimate sports personality in the world who agrees with you, much in the same way there's not one legitimate sports personality in the world who agrees with you that Brian Westbrook is the best football player in the NFL. |

said by Eagles LoveR:wilt couldnt do it in this era... he would get thrown around he we all know he had no jumpshot... First, you can't compare people from different eras.. And Wilt was 7'1" 275lbs when he played! He wouldn't get thrown around today.. And if he were in this era he'd have the luxury of todays weight-training & nutrition.. He also happened to be a superb track athlete, he would run/jump all over the NBA centers of today. You obviously don't know much about the NBA beyond this current generation of stars. If you make ridiculous claims like the above, you're not doing your argument any good. |

said by Eagles LoveR:wilt couldnt do it in this era... he would get thrown around he we all know he had no jumpshot And none of the players in today's game could do it in Wilt's era either. All the big men of today would foul out of every game because they charge whenever they move to the basket. They, and most other players, travel just about every time they touch the ball. None of the guards of today could handle the ball against the Robertsons, Couseys, and Fraziers, because they'd be called for carrying the ball on EVERY dribble. Different eras, different games, and the old era was basketball. I'm not sure what they play now. |
