    @DaBull no you get the ? out of here acting like a stat sheet tells the whole story.

    I acknowledge Rodman was a better rebounder but let's not get ? confused the Bulls had their successes because Jordan had an unparalleled will to win.

    RODMAN was what Ben Wallace was several years ago to the Pistons.

    A great defender and rebounder and miss me with that Pistons ? those Pistons teams of the late 80s - early 90s were loaded.

    Thomas and Dumas were better and I could make a good argument Laimbeer, Vinne Johnson, and Mark Agguire were just as good or better.

    Rodman didn't even start that first Pistons title run it wasn't until Mahorn was lost to the expansion Draft did Rodman start.

    Rodman was the fourth or fifth best player on those Piston teams at best great rebounder great defensive player but you cats in here acting like you could build a franchise around him he was a great complimentary player and probably the best rebounder I ever seen but you ? acting like he was a go to player or someone who made others better.

    I'm a call a ? a ? Rodman wasn't even considered the third best player at his position in those days or any time he was in the league.

    Those Bulls teams were Jordan Pippen and a bunch of complimentary players which makes it all the more amazing what Jordan did given the fact the league actually allowed defenders to play defense in those days.

    ? said bulls had marginal talent Round MJ then in same breath said Kobe and shaq were loaded with talent?.. Gtfoh u non knowing basketball ? .....fisher, Ron Harper, Brian shaw, samake walker, 100 yr old ac green, Robert Horry, devean George, luke walton, sasha vujacic, jordan farmer, ariza=Kerr, Paxton, bj Armstrong, buechler, grant, longley. Etc etc etc

    Kobe and Shaq are light years ahead of anybody on those Bulls teams not named Jordan.

    When I said loaded with talent I included the stars in that context ? out here with that.

    I'm done arguing with ? who don't know the game probably hadn't ever played organized ball outside of high school or rec league if even that much less coached the game.

    This is what started it all tho...and check the first response to the entire thread while at it lol
    Going with Prime Shaq...he literally could not be stopped.

    he had to be given the ball though...he was useless outside of 6 feet from basket.....prime kobe dropped 81 on ? , why is this even a debate? smh

    @playmaker88 somehow I've been lowered to arguing with ? like a ? I just realized this ? and checked myself.

    ? come in here pushing an agenda and post garbage to try to make their favorite player look good.

    I'm not a Kobe fan or hater but some ? can't drop an objective opinion without letting subjective feelings get involved.

    this is true. it's like ? cringe at the idea that Kobe is an all time great. you can make a case for Kobe being the most unstoppable player. it's not farfetched by any means.

    ? you got dismantled so many times by my posts that you copping out with excuses about arguments you started, ? outta here......talking like u ever played ball, no one cares about your nephew's church league you coached and ran a motion offense in, go do a 3 man weave and read a book. Jordan and pippen are the greatest duo ever, but they don't compare to shaq and Kobe? ? 6 titles is more than 3.....only difference is Kobe and shaq had no hall of famers in addition to them that were in their prime for a stretch......no rodmans. So take ya L back to the church league and let the kids know



    And all ancillary parts of those teams equal out if they aren't already the same guy I.e. harper

    Kobe scored 81 points, 50,60+ with almost ease against zone and triple teams....Kobe is a better scorer than MJ, that is an across the board agreed upon fact. You can argue MJ a better all around player, but as a scorer, nahhh son MJ ain't there.


    Close.......but no cigar.

    It's Jordan easily.I don't recall kobe dropping 50-60+ points in the playoffs/finals Multiple times like MJ or winning 10 straight scoring titles.That's utter dominance and this was while being the focal point of every team every night your whole career

    It's much harder to do that in the playoffs jordan dropped 54 in the ECF vs the #1 defense in the nba then dropped 54 in the finals in the same year putting up 41ppg during the series.That's unstoppable
