Do you think OJ Mayo will be better than Kobe?

[fraij da 5 11]

no.

 

[jesus is a laker fan]

Kobe was 21 during the 99-00 season, right? I think OJ is already a better defender than Kobe was at that age. OJ's jumpshot is moredeveloped too, it took Kobe 5 years to develop that fall away J from the elbow. Maybe the Kobe = MJ comparisons were rubbish after all, but Ithink it is highly realistic OJ can surpass Kobe.

 

[DPancakes]

Mayo>MJ

 

[i nasmatic i]

This is getting ridiculous

 

[JND1]

No.

 

[diceloveme]

7 games into his rookie season breathe dude.

 

[willinc]

Please lock up this Tom Connery.

Yall dudes need to stop riding OJ so hard. It's getting a little disgusting.

 

[bkzkurse]

anything is possible but he will need to maintain that Jordan-Kobe-I-Hate-All-Competition-And-I-Will-Train-Til-You-Burn mindset.


...anything is possible

 

[thasoleful1]

nah but i would like to see Mayo leave Grizzles when his contract is up and go to Lakers

Bullcrap! We've watched this guy since high school. Dropping all these points in the first week of your rookie campaign is not a fluke. Did Kobe drop 30 straight out the gate when he became a starter? We are watching the birth of a legend in Orenthal James Mayo.

 

[allen3xis]

And I am not at all a Kobe fan.

People need a reality check and understand OJ is still the 3rd best player in his own draft class.

 

[cabral richards]

Oh God.

Dudes are OD'n now.

Lets discuss this after a few years of playing. Its only 7 games in, anything can happen.

[M. Fresh]

[caliwestcoast1]

sohi...whats the count?...14?

[jmause3]

Well, I AM a Kobe fan, and I am telling you right now brother --- I SEE IT. I saw it at USC. This guy...... this guy here? He HAS it.

I mean, he already plays both ends of the floor. All he really needs is that patented, unstoppable J...... and I saw him break the Warriors off with itthe other night. OH MAN..... if he can just shoot over 42% this season..... that is some SERIOUS progress. Kobe's J was wack even during the3-peat. If you guys wanted to compare Kobe to MJ (which is totally unfair to both players), then you can certainly compare OJ to Kobe. This can be done.

 

[allen3xis]

How can this even be discussed when Rose has been the best and most consistent rookie.

What is he then? Jesus?

 

[biggie62]

Dude is nice, but he lacks Kobes size. Being over 6'6 means a lot in the L for a SG.

 

[the blue cape]

Mayo has very nice shooting form and good 1v1 D rarely seen in rooks, I think he'll be a serious problem in the L in 2-3.

To answer your question though, it's

early right now, come backand ask in 2.

 

[philballa09]

 

[dipped in butter]

Why would you ask this?

 

[JD617]

I think this is 14, but I could be wrong.
