Phil Jackson has spoken happy.gif

Yeah, he's not better than Michael Jordan, so he must be "overrated". roll.gifroll.gif

But you right, he has spoken.

I laughed at that tweet.

Since he played 9 years wthout Shaq more than half of his career.

He had the same role as MJ when Shaq left and didnt make the playoffs.

Compare MJ's 7th year and beyond to Kobe's 7th year and beyond when they had "similar roles"

MJ won 6.....Kobe won 2

Kobe is the second best SG ever, no question about it.

But Jordan transcended the game and redefined that position. SG has not been the most important piece to a championship team since before or after Jordan.

He's not better than MJ (of course) but he's not better than players like Hakeem either, son is barely top 5 best Lakers players, much less top 5/10 all time player.

Elgin Baylor averaged almost 40 points and 20 rebounds and 5 assist in 1 season. Kareem, Magic, Shaq, Jerry West....

Hakeem won 2 chips as the undisputed leader of his team against tough comp and averaged 26 pts, 13 rebounds, 4 blocks and 2 steals....no flaws in dudes game.

Tim Duncan?

Kobe is top 15/20

But damn sure not top 5 like a lot of people make him out to be.

 

True knowledge, it's just facts!

Water yew talking about?

Kobe said being that he played with Shaq his role was different than Jordans. Shaq left so now his role is similar to Jordans.

What help are you talking about anyway? Phil & Pippen were around before his 7th year when they started winning.

Kobe had already been on 3 championship teams by his 7th year so you would think keeping the streak going with a similar role to Jordan wouldnt be that difficult RIght? nerd.gif

You compared what he did in the same role. Jordan just so happened to have recently gotten Pip and Phil while Kobe LOST his best teammate. So how is the comparison of missing the playoffs and only getting two rings even fathomable? Its not. Sure he didn't have the same role with Shaq but you can't be serious with the comparison you just attempted.

Phil got jimmies rustled.

I thought it was common knowledge Jordan > Kobe.

Come on.
post #3800 of 3803

So much new insight. Props, gents. nthat.gif

 

Bunch of dudes insisting the other party say uncle.

 

"He's not overrated! Say it! Say uncle!"

"Is so! Phil said so! Say uncle!"

"That's not what Phil said! He's not overrated! SSAAAYYY ITTT!!! SAAAY UNCCLE!!!"

"HE IS TOOOO!!!! SAY HE'S OVERRATED!!! SAAAY ITTT!!!"

 

Tolerance of the arbitrary is difficult, I know.

s.

This. Its an absolutely terrible comparison. MJ isn't winning a ring with Kwame Brown and Luke Walton starting games either. ****. When Kobe finally got a decent roster he went to 3 straight finals and won back to back titles.

Of course, but that doesn't mean Kobe is overrated. Depends on where he IS rated by individuals to determine that
