this is a bryant vs jordan thread.. we might as well start a james vs anthony thread..

Give LeBron some time... In terms of maturity he owns Kobe but he has a lot of catching up to do in terms of scoring.

[djereza]

I know..by the time LBJ is 28-30..and hopefully no serious injuries along the way..he'll be sitting one of the Basketball gods after his retirement.

[xrm_racing]

what good could your so called 'killer instinct' give if your not winning games?

LBJ is just 22 yrs old..
LBJ is definitely not a bad scorer.. He can score anytime he wants but his not like Kobe and Anthony.

these guys only thinks of scoring that is why they are still playing immature basketball
Jordan once was a immature player.. that was when he was averaging 37.5 pts a game for the whole season..
but he change his game and that made him the greatest...

LBJ : 3 yr pro but plays like a veteran and makes his team a contender for NBA champ..

yeah like last year's playoffs, passing inside to varejao instead of taking a three, oh the wizards are up by three with ten seconds left!?! sorry. yeah he plays like a veteran, whatever. can't even shoot the ball! contender? hello, the cavs are residing in the east! you might want to argue that the last two out of three champions came from the east, why? that's because, say for example for the sake of argument, the Cavs doesn't have to contend with the Nuggets, Suns and Dallas, all in a grueling seven game series, to make it to the Finals! that's what the Spurs has to go through this year. Not to mention the regular season where you face tougher teams in the west more often, in fact the Cavs would only be seeded 6th if they're in the west, and that is with a record of playing as an eastern team.

Im sorry its OT. lets get back to MJ and Kobe.

- When Shaq left the Lakers and the lakers did not make it to the playoffs - it was because there was no Phil
- And when Phil returned and they only make it in the first round - it was because of his teammates, there not so competitive

And Now this?
the Cavs doesn't have to contend with the Nuggets, Suns and Dallas, all in a grueling seven game series

yeah blame it!!

kobe took charge in game 3 and scored 45 points. scoring is what he does best. his game 3 performance was so different from game 2. if he could just score and score, the lakers have the better chance of winning games. this is no time to experiment and try to involve his teammates, its the playoffs, and the lakers might not want to try out things especially when they're facing a western conference power like the phoenix suns.

kobe should stick at what he does best. he's got the offseason and regular season to experiment and change his game

[grovestreet]

btw im a kobe fan...
not a laker fan. but i guess when u idolize a player, u cant help but look forward that their team will win.

and ive always hated the phx suns (except stoudemire)

[piaosigua]

layu ra kaau na si kobe ni mj oi! tan-awa lang gud to line-up sa bulls kato naka 72-10 sila. ang gadala sa duwa ang guards jud. wa jud maka pugong sa triangle offense nila. d na nila kinahanglan lig-on na center kay teamwork kaau sila tanan from offense to defense.

[lloydjon]

MJ is the best player of all times....huz kobe?
