@Professorfrenchfry you don't make any sense.. many other greats fall under the same category you just mentioned... Many greats 10,000+ behind Bron and are also ringless, yet they they don't get disrespected by casuals and Bron fans.. meanwhile, players and other greats speak and say otherwise concerning Melo
@@mr.getitdone6543 And yeah, just because you aren’t as good as lebron or MJ or whoever doesn’t mean you aren’t still great. Allen Iverson and Kevin Garnett are still all-timers but it’s not disrespectful to say Lebron is better than them.
@Professorfrenchfry I'm not speaking of the ppl comparing Melo to anyone, you are.. I'm literally talking about media, Bron stans and casuals who literally called him washed and trash and all that throughout his career. While goats 🐐 say he was possibly their toughest opponent
Don't cry we always knew that LeBron isn't a pure scorer like the guys Kobe mentioned. He might be the better all-round player than he mentioned but it's about scoring alone. All the guys he mentioned had a much bigger repertoire than LeBron who only drives or shoots from outside.
Jordan has never once called himself the goat. Not once. He doesn’t need to. His game spoke for him. He also played every game. Lebron flops and sits out games constantly.
The goat of turnovers and misses too😂 ppl still had jordan #1 no matter who the all time leading scorer. Jordan averaged 30 and woukd have averaged 32 without the wizards days playing at 40 back from a second retirement
No one feared Lebron, everyone knew he was either going to the rim or passing. That's y he was as successful as Kareem scoring wise. LeBron did what he knew what worked for him. No knock on his greatness, there's just a lot of players with a deeper bag than him. But that deep bag is Also y they got injured so much, they used alot of athleticism because they couldn't just clear a path to the rim like bron

Facts.
I was getting ready to say this. Outside of philly, the media really disrespected AI. His peers always told a different story tho
Bronsexuals gon be mad that Kobe ain't mention him
because bron was easy for him to guard.
Kobe could read lebron like a book cuz he’s never had much finess in his game he was just a powerhouse.
The fact that you're trying to discredit a great ball player, just shows how truly great he is

His a 1st ballot HOF'er, ur comment makes no sense. You don't accomplish that without consistently be at the top of ur profession.

T Mac was a beast fr.
I miss you kobe ❤
AI was the 🐐
The thing is, for me, AI took it to Shaq and Kobe more than anyone I've ever seen.
And by himself, insanity
Not when it mattered. Chauncey Billups had better success.
@@user-ky7le9bf2m I'm not sure, because AI was never on that Pistons team. That team dominanted the with real defense.

All that background noise in the beginning 😂😂😂
T Mac was a major problem

As far as individual talent, sure. Team ball not so much.

Melo !!
Lebron is just basically living rent free in a lot of people’s head Lmao
Who? I his name wasn't mentioned
And you're there to ensure you defend him with all your strength..
Notice how nobody in the comments even mentioned LeBron his weirdo ass fan boys want him included in everything and when he’s not they say dumb shit like this smh
lol dude, you are in denial.. all of those guys are much better scorers than lebron
Allen Iverson, to be thew first name to come up.. its AI even with the height difference but def McGrady too
Bro just would NOT shut up at first. Like how you gone sit and tell the person he asked, who was hard to guard? Lol
Actually McGrady is 6'8" and Durant is 6'9".
These numbers are all bullshit. The player is what he is, and most are listed wrong.
actually durant is 6'10 maybe even 6'11... but tmacs athleticism made up for the couple of inches durant had on him. trust me.. if you saw tmac in his prime and injuries didnt pull the rug on him.. tmac would be a LOT more respected today
LeBron is 6'8 and Tracy was an inch taller
Tmac was tough for kobe because he was 6-9, and then there’s Durant who is basically 7 feet tall Tmac
When you Ask Kobe. He Knows Who
Dang no love for lebron 😂
cause he was a small foward so he didnt really have to guard him
@@hxxdie4351 fair enough
@@hxxdie4351 Thats not true… Kobe guarded him 85% of the time! Stop that hating shit
@@WS-ul5fbHow is that hating when he was stating a simple fact? 😂 You stop it.
He didn’t name Wade

I DONT SEE LEBRON HERE
Iverson always gave Kobe problems on defense
Why do players all have Melo on their list & praise him, but casuals and even Bron fans down talk Melo??
Cause he’s never won anything in the NBA and lebron has over 10,000 more points

No lebron because he’s soft 😂
LeBron is 16-6 against the late Kobe Bryant in their head to head matchup.
Don't cry we always knew that LeBron isn't a pure scorer like the guys Kobe mentioned. He might be the better all-round player than he mentioned but it's about scoring alone. All the guys he mentioned had a much bigger repertoire than LeBron who only drives or shoots from outside.
AI WAS HIM
Lebron surpassed all of them (including self proclaim Goat Michael Jordan) by being the Goat scorer ever 😂 just that alone
He has played more games and has more minutes then all those guys. I'd rather want sometime do more with less
Jordan has never once called himself the goat. Not once. He doesn’t need to. His game spoke for him. He also played every game. Lebron flops and sits out games constantly.
