Westbrook, Lebron and Jordan have given Kobe his dues, I'll take their opinion over some sour CB grapes any day, since they know what it takes to excel at that level

I don't think that many basketball people have Kobe over Lebron.

Didn't need hindsight to realize Kobe was never as good as the all-time greats.

There is an argument for KOBE being a top 10 player of all time

Not even close to MJ. Not even close.

Kobe is behind at least Lebron and Duncan for this era.

messi

5/24/15 11:11pm

Duncan is probably one of the most underrated players ever

Lebron still has catching up to do

If LeBron played the first 8 seasons of his career with Shaq in his prime

At least they had to play difficult teams to get to the finals

No doubt about that.

Here's an alternate theory:

Not as good as Jordan, but come on. Kobe in his prime was amazing.

You could say top 10. 2nd best shooting guard ever, but behind Duncan for his

No thumbs down. I just disagree.

Kobe ranked #15 - #25!?!

Scottie Pippen above Kobe? Hmmm, that's a stretch.

Rise Against

5/25/15 10:05pm

Nice try ...

MormonDevil

5/25/15 10:12pm

So you put him at around 10?

Beard Card

5/25/15 10:24pm

No. He is clearly better than the guys I listed ...

MormonDevil

5/25/15 10:35pm

You are in the extreme minority with that opinion. Kobe is an inefficient

I'm sorry, I thought some of those undisputed accomplishments made a fine case

Helm Hammerhand

Is anybody disputing that he's one of the greatest?

garyfan

5/26/15 12:19am

Yes, that's how this thread started but obviously you didn't read it

Helm Hammerhand

5/26/15 12:23am

Seems like you just want to argue.

garyfan

Looks like we're both a little stubborn and disagree, I'm good, enjoyed

Not really the extreme minority ...

Yet, several people in this thread disagreeing with you are Laker fans,

Helm Hammerhand

Were you expecting Magic to anoint himself the greatest Laker of all time?

garyfan

5/26/15 12:04am

Nope, just value their opinion over yours

Helm Hammerhand

5/26/15 12:09am

If I knew their true opinion, I'd value it.

It's your homework. You make claims and now pretend it's on me to

I'm a Jazz fan. Can't stand Kobe as a person. But he's a top 10 ever player.
