    I think u just answered ur own question. Mfs debate about who's better Nas or Jay everyday on here. If today Jay-z says in an interview "Nas is da greatest Mc of alltime" ,are u still gonna say Jay-z is better than Nas? The debate dies after something like dat is said.

    look kid, i remember when Magic said that ? . It wuz immediately after kobe had won his 5th chip. He wuz caught up in the moment.

    Dat ? mumo livin in the past jus cause he from this era he aint better than magic when every laker great has said it and if kobe wins 2 more idc what anyone say you can argue that he is da GOAT

    Magic name always comes up in the GOAT Convo. Like he top 5 on 95% of the lists out there unlike Kobe who wil never be in the top 5 discussion. Mind you Kobe wil never win another chip as the alpha dog -- the west now is Durant's conference for the next 10 years.

    What i dont understand is why do ya'll folks make it seem like Kobe was scoring 7ppg or something during the title run , like he had no input on the games at all

    i understand if ya'll just dont like the ? for whatever reason cuz he may be a goofy ass lame and tries to hard , but ya'll hardly respect his game at all

    "all he does is score" ...he's a damn shooting guard Lol , u want him to average 12 assist a game? his job is to put the ball through the basket, of Course some1 like Magic Johnson is a better passer he's PG his job is to get everyone else involved ...and for majority of his career he played great defense as of late i feel like he's been slightly overrated on Defense cuz he's slowing down a bit but majority of his career he's been a offensive and defensive threat..

    i swear ya'll find the weirdest ways possible to discredit the guy


    i would probably still say Magic is slightly ahead of him as far as "Greatest Laker' ...but i mean if this is what guys who layed with him wanna say or see him up close everyday wanna say then so be it ..

    maybe it's just a CS thing but ya'll be ? 'n on him like he was a average player


    Thread should be closed...^^^
    Yea he was on his D til 08 ..


    ? be like but he shots 45% he never shot 50 lol.. it make the world go round or something

    Any body with brain cells knows that Magic is the GOAT Laker

    nah kid
    magic had kareem and Worthy his whole career. a total of 3 hall of famers
    magic lost 4 finals
    magic never won without Kareem who was "Shaq" to Kobe
    Kobe won 2 without Shaq
    case closed
    and kobe never had anyone close to Worthy on his team......thats would be llike a prime paul pierce next to him

    I think kobe's fan seem to forget something, and this is not saying he's not a great player. But to me along with stats, an accomplishments his impact on the game has to be greater, it wasnt as great as Magic's. Nothing against him at all. He is a legend in his own right..

    I'll say it like Tommy. Magic outshined Kareem in they Laker Careers but Shaq completely ? on Kobe. Takeout Shaq from the Lakers, then Kobe woulda had the same problems Vince,T-Mac & Ivy had in the early 2000. Winnin scoring titles, makin the top 10 plays regularly but barely making the playoffs.

    Also kobe played more games,seasons than magic,kareem,west and any other laker

    And took the most shots than any of them so of course he the all time leading scorer

    By that logic brett favre the Goat right? Cuz favre has the most yards,td's etc or did he play longer than everybody else?

    When kareem retired magic led the lakers to the Wcf's and nba finals

    While the lakers missed the playoffs(3rd time ever) and couldnt get out the 1st round under kobes great leadership when shaq left

    Makes alot of sense

    What does this have to do with anything that i posted at all??

    see this is ya'll problem ya'll dont even have ya'll own opinions


    i said "Ya'll find weird ways to discredit Kobe " , "Magic is Slightly the greater Laker in my opinion" , " Kobe does more than just scoring"

    now tell me how ya'll took that out of context and started mentioning Vince Carter and Allen Iverson....ya'll ? dont even ? read



    i swear ya'll find the weirdest ways possible to discredit the guy

    KOBE first ballot top ten player of all time but he had his fare share of ? ups.... His fans like to dismiss his performance against the Pistons he nearly single handledly shot the Lakers out the finals forcing bad shots (missing them mostly) and getting shut down by Prince... never mind that he ignored Shaq who was beasting Ben Wallace that whole series... That Finals Performance alone negates any comparsion to Jordan or Magic imo..

    As far as the Lakers go its hard to put over Magic or Kareem and Shaq..

    I would Agree about the Pistons series i felt like he was trying to do way too damn much , dribbling in traffic constantly ..pointless fade aways , he had a lot of Wtf moments in that series.

    Good thing your opinion really doesnt matter in the scheme of tihngs.. i guess you dont know about Magics Notorious fuckups as well as MJ inability to lead his teams to great success before pippen. Will you hold this same level of critique to your contemporaries as well as teh predecessors seriously doubt it ..

    Kareem was 32 when he went to the lakers and was 41 when he retired he was on the downside.Magic led the 80's lakers

    Pau Gasol career numbers 19 ppg 9.1 rebs 3.2 apg 1.7 blocks

    Gasol playoff numbers 18 ppg 10 rebs 3.3 apg 1.9 blocks


    James worthy career numbers 17.6 ppg 5 rebs 3.0 apg

    James worthy playoff numbers 21 ppg 5 rebs 3 apg


    Stop big uppin players you never watched play Gasol is just as good if not better than worthy

    Lakers have won 77% of their games and went to 3 finals since the day they acquired gasol

    And the nba has the most watered down hall of fame ever gasol will be a hall of famer

    Lol

    Same thing I been sayin

    that was the 1st time kobe led the lakers in fga's and fg's in any finals and you saw how bad they lost

    Shaq put up 34 and 11 and 36 and 20 on wallace and kobe still was hoggin while gettin shut down and shooting 36%

    kobe led the lakers in scoring/shooting resulted in a 3-9 start and a nba finals debacle wit multiple blowouts

    I recall Shaq scoring and yelling at the bench to get him the ball cause he was dominating.. Kobe was forcing fadeaway jump shots whole series...
