      @@champhasfanz unreal, guys who don’t know history shouldn’t comment. However every year he had to go against a Spurs team in their prime in the west just to get to the finals. That same Spurs team that Lebron with the most loaded team of all time lost to in the Finals when they were all old and way past their prime. If it wasn’t for Ray Allen, would have beat that heat team twice in the finals.

From 1999 until 2011 he led his team in assists 10 of those 12 years as the main scoring option.. And the 2 years where he didnt were in 2003 where he was .4 APG behind HOF Gary Payton, and in 2005 he was 1 APG behind Lamar Odom (the year he averaged 35.4 PPG).

      Kobe plays the SG which is just hard to excell at. I mean outside of Jordan and Kobe the SG lacks talent. There's Wade but he's considered top 20 and usually on the lower end.
      With PG there's Magic, Steph, Kidd, Stockton and Isiah and Big O.

    Kobe is hardest working, most driven, determined player to ever lace up basketball shoes. He got the most possible out of himself and showed what one could do if you push yourself. He didn’t have giant hands and natural leaping ability like MJ or VC. He wasn’t 6’8 250 lbs with that jumping ability like LeBron. He was a student of the game, an isolated deadly assassin who was never given his just due but always feared by his opponents. MVPs are voted by the media who by and large didn’t like his stoic demeanor. His first year stats were stunted due to playing for a coach who didn’t play rookies. His last few years stats were stunted due to injuries because he pushed himself through everything and never gave excuses. He was a winner and a champion with the heart of a fucking Lion. Put some respect on Kobe Bryant’s name.

      Its easy to prove that Bill Russel's pre-1964-65 Season Chips & Finals don't weigh as much as those that followed. So why would anyone rank the Star (Kobe) who led/co-led his team to more Finals, more Chips, 2 Finals MVPs, was snubbed from having 2 Season MVPS for legal reasons, and 2nd most All-NBA & All-Defense teams below Russell, Chamberlain, Shaq & Bird? Haters gonna hate. The only reasonable arguments for ranking Kobe fall in the 3-6 range, depending on how the ranker consistently weighs their criteria.

  • @rebecalinares5393

    Bryant was born in the Lakers, the most millionare showbiz franchise in all NBA. He had the best coach and was sorrounded since day 1 with the best players around him, O´Neal since day 1, had the most dominant big men with him on all of his championships. Even had MJ as a mentor, Tex Winter as coach; the guy was a product who revieved since he came into the league all the winning ingredientes and items in his career.
    To put Byrant as top 10 or better than James you would have to analyze his results if he would have played or at least started with the Charlotte Hornets.
    How much would James had won if he´d started in the Pistons, or Lakers or in the Celtics paying with Pierce and Garnett?
    Its easy to say that James "went to Miami" haha, well where did Byrant went in the first place?
    Why did Bryant stayed in Los Angeles all his career? Why didnt he moved to lets say the Phoenix Suns? or the Minessota Wolves? ...
    Because he wasnt stupid. He knew that LA had all the resources he needed (fans, full stadium, the most powerful organization behind him, press etc, al the showbiz behind) to be considerd at the top of basketball.
