Jordan vs Bryant


Dexterity

Recommended Posts

When comparing players and debating who is better, shouldn't each player be better at something? Otherwise, what exactly is the argument? I only ask because so many people want to compare Kobe to MJ, yet I can't find anything Kobe is better at than MJ.

The only thing Kobe wins at is 3 point shooting.

Jordans 3pt% is 327. Kobes is 334. Kobe shot 3300 more though. The rest is accurate.

They are both at 33% 3pt shooting because .327 & .334 both round to 33%. That said, these totals are their season & playoff numbers combined.

Jordan is .328%

Bryant is .333%

That leaves them tied at 33% 3pt shooting. Unless you are saying Kobe's better because he shoots 0.005% better from 3pt range.

Jordan is the greatest. Kobe is top 10.

^Lakers fan

Jordan the greatest? Eh, probably but Oscar Robertson was really fuging good. Probably better but Jordan played in the right era & has the legacy.

Kobe top 10? Eh, doubtful. Kobe is top 20, arguably 10-15 range, but it gets crowded in the top 10.

Jordan

Robertson

Chamberlain

Duncan

Johnson

Abdul-Jabbar

O'Neal

Olajuwon

Bird

Malone

West

James

& several others I've missed.

Kobe is nowhere near MJ. When It's all said and done It'll be LeBron and MJ top 2, most likely MJ being considered the best because of the brand he is has just made him immortal. LeBron is such a better all around player than Kobe it isn't even funny, if LeBron plays until Kobes age and stays healthy he'll be ahead of Kobe in points, rebounds, assists & I don't know this for sure but probably steals and blocks. Kobe is playing on a bad team for max money taking a huge amount of shots on a horrible FG% just trying to inflate his points In the record books.

Yes. Jordan having the big brand and the Nike powerhouse behind him, the commercials, the shoes, the ads, it all has helped Jordans legacy about as much as his play. He was the 1st to do the things he did with Nike and it immortalized him. In 20 years they are still going to be re-releasing retro Jordans and kids will be camping over night to buy them and saying jordan was jesus christ on a basketball court even though they've never seen jordan play. Nike marketed him flawlessly

LeBron won't ever reach that level. He's bigger, but doesn't have the pure skill those two possess.

    • My projection. I think at WR its time to go with youth. This means Moore should be the odd man out. Horn can return both punts and kicks and Tremayne is a better WR than Moore. XL gets one more year to prove himself, although I could see a trade in the future which would mean Moore could stay. For OL, I would like us to bring back Brady if we can. The RBs, Trevor can return both punts and kicks too. With the uncertainty of Brooks and Dillon, its hard to choose either one. I think the team would like for Brooks to have a breakout season to clear any uncertainty that he deserves a spot. For now, I have them both even and on the team. DL looks solid as well as OLB. Watch out for the UDFA of Aaron Hall and Isaiah Smith at OLB. They look promising and could knock someone off the team. ILB is still the biggest weakness on the team. We need to upgrade that any means necessary. CB is strong and Im praying to all the Gods that Wheatley beats out Scott at FS.  OFFENSE: WR: Tetairoa McMillan - *Chris Brazzell II* - Brycen Tremayne TE: Tommy Tremble - James Mitchell LT: #Rasheed Walker# - *Monroe Freeling* LG: Damien Lewis C- #Luke Fortner# - *Sam Hecht* RG: Robert Hunt - #Saahdiq Charles# RT: Taylor Moton - #Stone Forsythe# TE: Ja`Tavion Sanders - Mitchell Evans WR: Xavier Legette - Jalen Coker - Jimmy Horn Jr. QB: Bryce Young - #Kenny Pickett# RB: Chuba Hubbard - Trevor Etienne - #AJ Dillon# - Jonathon Brooks DEFENSE: LE: Tershawn Wharton - Bobby Brown III  NT: *Lee Hunter* - Cam Jackson RE: Derrick Brown - LaBryan Ray LOLB: Nic Scourton - Patrick Jones II  LILB: Trevin Wallace - Bam Martin-Scott - *Jackson Kuwatch* RILB: #Devin Lloyd# - Claudin Cherrelus  ROLB: #Jaelen Phillips# - Princely Umanmielen LCB: Jaycee Horn - Akayleb Evans RCB: Mike Jackson - *Will Lee III* - Chau Smith-Wade SS: Tre`von Moehrig - Lathan Ransom FS:  Nick Scott - *Zakee Wheatley* - Demani Richardson  SPECIAL TEAMS: K/KO: Ryan Fitzgerald P/H: Sam Martin KR: Trevor Etienne - Jimmy Horn Jr. PR: Trevor Etienne - Jimmy Horn Jr. LS: J.J.

    • His contract is guaranteed.  Legette is just not where he needs to be mentally.  Not fully invested, it seems. 
    • Literally like Hill. He's not QB1 material (now or ever), but if we can turn him into a H-back and use him like  Swiss army knife, that's his ticket to make the roster.  H-back/emergency QB.  I wonder how good his hands are?  If they are at least above average by NFL standards then we can line him up in the backfield, in the slot, split out wide and of course, in the Wildcat.
