Don't think a certain Colorado hotel employee misses him very much

When kobe said: "people trying to compare me and mj, what you get from me is from him"

I was at the Magic vs Cavs game on Christmas Day in 04(worked for magic for 10 years). That T-Mac vs LeBron matchup was awesome for so many reasons. LeBron legitimately stayed with him the entire game. Big Z won the opening tipoff and LeBron hit a little floater immediately, the next trip down LeBron hit a SMOOTH ass three and everyone was like damn he is about to run the league for a long time. T-Mac ended up with like 40 and LeBron like mid 30’s but that was 18 year old LeBron vs the most gifted player in the world at the time. I’ll never forget that game…

He’s probably correct. The reason Jordan was still better is because he was a more freakish athlete and had better instincts. Kobe was a hyper-technical player, especially as the years went on.

Kobe had the body of a standard 2 guard, with the drive and knowledge of someone who studied the game.

Asst/TOV ratio, MJ 2-1, Kobe 1.6-1 When you compare their last 2 years, MJ was not bad with the Wiz, his 2nd year was pretty good, his scoring eff was 45% and Kobes scoring eff was 41%. .

@@user-pp9bl5gr1n you don’t understand the first thing about the game. MJ had better fundamentals, footwork, IQ, shot selection, vert, speed, better form on his shot, was much more graceful, never looked awkward with his moves. KB while being great frequently lost his form and was not as fundamentally sound. Let’s not even discuss defensive stance and resources and yes, the big hands and the athleticism make a huge difference.

Kobe ball handles and ability to get his shot off being an average athletically with a 36” vert and still dunking on centers is the reason Kobe is seen as most skilled.

“Most skilled” is a more ridiculous debate than the G.O.A.T argument is smh but it’s clear to me this generation doesn’t realize how fundamentally sound MJ’s game was!

I remember long time ago, when they asked Kobe in a interview what is for him the toughest player to guard in NBA, he undoubtably said T-Mac," because he does everything I do but he is even bigger". Well, the respect was obviously mutual....

Mj shot 32.7% from three throughout his career. Kobe shot 32.9% from three throughout his career.

You do realize that the NBA moved the 3 point line closer back in 1994. They didn't move it back until 1997. MJ's 3-point shot skyrocketed to 43% because of this. He doesn't shoot the 3 as well as Kobe.

⁠@@Kobesthebestest mj had two seasons in 89-90 and 92-93 where he shot better than Kobe’s career average at 37.6% and 35.2%. And that was before they moved the line closer. So saying kobe was a better shooter from three doesn’t really add up. At the end of the day they shoot about the same percentage from three, and like the original comment said kobe just shot a lot more from deep than Michael ever did. I’m sure if Michael practiced and shot more from three that his percentage would be better than it is. His thing was high percentage mid range shots. Which is why he has the highest percentage ever from midrange and is easily considered the king of midrange shots. MJ is the GOAT for a reason🐐🐐🐐
