'Overrated' doesn't mean 'sucks'.

Some argue Kobe as GOAT, some top 3 or 5... and MANY disagree w/ that. If he realistically belongs in the top 10-15 and a ton of people have him in the top 1-5, then the argument can definitely be made that he is RATED OVER (swidt?) what he should be rated.

Hence the thread, a pretty large and popular one, I might add.

Doesn't mean he sucks, though.

Um you might as well called me a "hater" if you just want to throw out silly remarks because I choose not to continue in such a ridiculous thread.  I actually added alot of "intelligent and valuable" things probably 80 pages ago.  Thats whats sad about the thread. Its gone this long and the same people are beating the same dead horse.  But don't let me stop you....carry on

Welp.  Ska you can sit in your ivory tower and hate on Kobe's methods all you want, but the one's who matter recognize that his system works.

That's better than what you posted if we aren't being biased.

No it's not!

First off, those last 3 Kobe item just shows you were trying to build a list that was longer than Magic's, regardless of what is on the list. Might as well also add that Kobe wore 2 numbers and Magic only wore one. Put that Kobe went from fro to bald. That counts, right? Also had a signature line with 2 major sneaker companies. Moving on...

Also didn't say that Kobe's HS award doesn't matter but Magic's NCAA championship does matter. So there's that. (What I said was that NEITHER matter in terms of the Lakers, but if we're going to include them, then obviously a college championship trumps a HS award; disagree? Feel free... but don't say I said one doesn't count and the other one does.)

 

You mentioned that Kobe is a top 5 scorer... then asked if Magic is a top 5 assist guy... AS IF IT'S NOT PLAINLY STATED IN MY VERY RESPONSE YOU QUOTED. Yes, Magic's a top 5 assist guy. #4, champ.

 

Thanks for playing.

 

RIF

The large print in the first quote is saying total points don't matter. "regardless of what's on the list"....You've gone back on what you said so many times it's ridiculous. And if nothing besides what's done in a Laker uni matter, how does Magic have the advantage? Playing what? What's RIF?

Zing 

Lol this thread....i think it's a wrap for Kobe but I wouldn't call him overrated.
