    Now I SEE Why Jordan Said Kobe Is Probably Top Ten Amongst Guards All Time

    People were shocked by that statement, thinking Kobe should be in the conversation of probably top ten all time let alone top ten guards, but Kobe has a hard time beating the Mavs with such a talented team. Jordan would have absolutely owned the league with this size and talent on a team. Pure shame.

    Nobody who knows anything would say Kobe > Jordan... so just let it go. Kobe is Kobe. Nobody is Jordan.

    You didn't watch Jordan play otherwise you would know that JOrdan sucked in the playoffs in big games when he thought he could retire for a minute and come back and still dominate. that's how little nba players are separated.

    Kobe was 9/20 with 23 pts, 5 steals. He had no rebounds but the bigs took care of that. The lakers lost because of their bench and pau simple as that.

    Kobe went 1-for-4 in the 4th quarter. What happened to the "closer"? An embarrassing performance by the entire team here. I didn't' fight in any of them, just self-pity.

    All the excuses in the world will be thrown out there from Laker/Kobe fans.

    I can't even imagine what the excuse will be this time. Good supporting cast, plenty of experience, and a so-called great coach, yet these guys are playing with 0 heart out there.

    Just the arrogant nature of Laker fans.

    hey guys,

    I'm as big of kobe fan as you can find, let me tell you that before I get started. I have grown up watching the guy, following the twists and tails of his career. I know many, many, MANY people from LA (where I'm from) that are the exactly the kinda guys you're talking about: people who are fans of Kobe instead of basketball. I love him because he's a Laker and their my team. Hold it against me if you must (lookin at you guys in the green and white), but I think if you guys had a guy like Kobe on your team, you'd love him too, trust me. And on the comparisons to Jordan, no he's not as good as Jordan was. He just isn't. However, I enjoy the comparison just because it allows me to see how he compares to the best ever at his position. Just being mentioned along with Michael Jordan is something he should be proud of (even though I know he won't be satisfied with that). I'm a fan of the game first, and the Lakers are just my team. I'm just rooting for my guys. Its no different from if I was from any other city, say OKC.

    and Jordan won his last ring when he was 35 and Kobe is only 32 but looks slower than MJ at 35.

    Wrong I watched Jordan play all my life, saw the Boston game where he dropped 63 live, Jordan was terrific in the playoffs and when he actually got talent to play alongside him, he was even better.

    Yeah Kobe is so pathetic. It's not like he is making hundreds of millions of dollars, or banging his hot mexican wife while he has an affair with some hot white chick from Denver, or winning a ton of championships. What a loser....

    And we are all so cool because we post on a basketball forum.

    you mean when he wore 45? yeah, he was away from the game for a minute, busy putting up numbers in double a baseball that were better than kids who had been playing their whole lives. that first year back, yeah, he was rusty, but then they won 3 in a row. again. what exactly are you saying?

    Wrong, he wasnt terrible, he was rusty, slower, not in basketball shape. Looked like he lost a step and he did, honestly I thought he was on the downslide then, but came back the next year like he had never missed a step. Jordan averaged 31.5 pts, 6.5 rebounds, and 4.5 assists his first year back from retirement, so tell me how that is a cancer to a team?

    the bulls were hovering around .500 before Jordan cameback and wore 45


    they finished with something like a 45-37 record and a 5 seed, instead of the 7 or 8 seed they would have been without him.
