Jordan vs Kobe
Why Jordan is the best
It’s true, Kobe Bryant is an outstanding player, but he will never be at the level of Michael Jordan, and everybody knows that; those who don’t are just living in denial.
Let’s just put it this way, on his career, Jordan won 5 MVP awards, Kobe just got his first, Kobe hasn’t had the economic impact Jordan had, Kobe hasn’t won more titles than Jordan, and so on.
But on the other hand, Michael Jordan never scored 50 points on 3 games straight, and Jordan was just good as a shooting guard, Kobe can play different positions and come with good results, including in deffensive areas.
Kobe has played 12 years in the NBA, the same number of years Jordan played when he finally retired, so Kobe doesn’t have too much time to paired what Michael Jordan did, and that is why one might consider the former Chicago Bulls all-star as better-a-player than Bryant.
Plus Michael Jordan never had a Shaquille O’neal on his team, and Kobe Bryant got overshadowed by Shaq’s talent, so Jordan deserves more credit on that area.
The only thing Jordan missed was Kobe’s 81 points...
