The KOBE vs JORDAN Debate

[makoyvelasco]

Kung maoy sugo ni Phil...its not Kobe call bro. Game 1 phoenix defended Kobe madly pag 2nd half..so unsa may buhaton sa player if double teaman?? I.pasa sa libre nga teammate, but still he's teammate can't finish. most likely why Kobe will take a force shot cos his teammates will just stand still and watch him finish. If only their is a designated 2nd scorer sa iyang team... odom is injured right now (shoulder and legs), walton (ankles), kwame (ankles)...an experience rookie guard (Farmar) perhaps?? Then that will take a lot of loads on Kobe's shoulder.

thats where kobe's leadership is in question. kobe and lamar odom has been teammates for the past 3 seasons, and so far no lamar odom improvement so far. if we compare it to jordan and pippen, pip came to the nba averaging 7.9 points a game in his first season and never started a game. but he almost doubled his averaged the next season until he became a legitimate star. we cant rant about injuries because its part of the game. i bet if pippen is injured too, he'll not be playing like lamar odom because he's got michael jordan who will push and motivate him. in short, michael jordan is not limited to stats, awards and titles but also impacts on his teammates. he simply makes his teammates better. as for kobe, his stats is the only thing that keeps on getting better season after season, we never see any major improvement from his teammates. inconsistency is killing the lakers. why? because during the regular season it was an all-kobe show and his teammates wasn't able to build enough confidence. radmanovic and smush parker are good players, andrew bynum had a great start but eventually faded out, jordan farmar is a great college ball player but it seems he's not really a factor for the lakers.

i say kobe is still in the learning process. its just his 3rd season that he's on his own, he grew up as an nba player under daddy shaq since his rooie year. he's still young and theres still a lot of time for development.

naa to'y video sa youtube nga si barkley ni acknowledge na nga si kobe as "the greatest player ever to have played the game."
pangitaun sa nako. But of course jordan's teammate, pippen didn't agree with barkley.

discussing about their team. Yeh ive read bout that too. hehe.

grovestreet..thanks bro.

About the vote...I like kobe and his achievements..i'm not bashing him..i love to watch him play..you always ask yourselft "What is he going to do now??".. But i voted for MJ bro. No doubt. Like I said in my previous post, MJ is a basketball god! Kobe have a lot of years to be a god. we'll see if he can reach to MJ's level.

too much of our rant... kobe will be the next MJ!!!

[progmetal]

good luck na lang kung c kobe mahimong next MJ

dawo man na c kobe woi

mas mo agree nun kog LBJ

What's interesting to note is that Kobe's never said anything against the notion of being compared to MJ. Dwyane Wade said that "There will never be another Micheal Jordan" after being compared to him after winning his first ring. LeBron wouldn't even think about it, since MJ was his childhood idol.

[ravit]

if kobe is not worth being the next mj.. then why is kobe on top of the list? dili lang na diri ha..nba expert's list..
and it's funny why is this topic kobe vs jordan debate,, if kobe isn't worth it then why not other player's xxxxx vs jordan debate? why kobe? THINK ABOUT IT..!!!!!

OK

till' next 5 years another batch of jordans would play in the NBA ,let's debate again..

[makoyvelasco]

because kobe is the closest to jordan
