    Default Re:Kobe vs. Michael

    He doesn't impress me, he has no footwork, no post play, no dribble, the only game he has is bulldozing to the hoop, and crying to refs if they don't give him additional free throw.
    People would have said the exact same thing about Jordan for much of his career except they wouldn't call it bulldozing. I don't know how you can not be impressed by a guy who can lead his team to the best record in the league with Mo Williams as his second best player.

    Thank you to everyone for your input.

    One more thing...

    Does anyone know the story...has it come out WHY Kobe switched to #24?

    Is it true he chose it because it's one higher than 23?

    All people who say Kobe is better than Jordan need to watch the youtube video where Kobe tries the Jordan finger wave and then falls backwards and crashes on the floor.

    It couldn't be any plainer than that.

    Have you seen his court vision ? His passing ability ? Doesn't that impress you ?
    Don't you agree he's a very unselfish player ? You can say whatever you want about his off court persona, but on court he doesn't act as if he was that much better than everyone else. However, Kobe did. You say you like to watch him play - I agree he's changed now, but didn't his selfish play before last season bother you ?

    He might have no footwork (although I disagree somewhat with that assumption) and no post game (recently I've seen him throw a few hook shots), but he's just 24.

    I expect him in his late 30s when he's no longer as quick or as athletic to play PF and I'm pretty sure by then he'll have great footwork and a very good post game.

    IMO at this time you'd look better if you just said something like "he might be a great player, but I just don't like him", cause arguments against his skills are hard to support.
