Yes defense - huge gap. Bron as great as he was on that end wasn't getting after it man to man night to night guarding the top guys like this. As powerful and as explosive as he was he didn't have the conditioning or lateral quicks Bean had to clamp down like this.
Lakers hired JJ reddick re signed 42 year old Bron for 3 years and drafts Bronny James tonight, the lakers have become a complete circus this is not the team I loved 🤦🏾♂️

I agree Jordan is the greatest of all time greatest career he the reason people play the way they play now in 2023, but Kobe Bryant is definitely the BEST basketball player ever he an elevated version of Jordan
Here's 2 straight minutes of Kobe Bryant making turnaround jumpers. He used this to escape doubles before they got to him. Nobody in the history of the sport was this sharp and polished. Just pure mastery.

I’ll admit I am a hugeee Bron fan I am 100% honest, it’s just that his fans say some of the dumbest things and disrespect Kobe to much, and have no logical facts
You do realize when Kobe is guarded by Bron he was is 58% while doing shit like this and when Kobe guards Bron, Bron barely could get his dribble off ?
Gilbert Arenas is telling the truth.
Michael Jordan during his first 9 seasons before he retired to play baseball is the guy I think of when I say Jordan is the greatest..
NOBODY is close to that Mike 🐐
This is why you have to watch basketball instead of using a career longevity stat, not knowing Kobe last 3 years when he got hurt drastically brought his “longevity stats” down but when ever Bron Guarded Kobe he had his way, keep it 1000% u never seen prime Kobe play

How is he BY FAR superior when the numbers say the exact opposite . Lebron scores more is more efficient better at 3s more boards more assists
The agenda continues if Nick Wright is the face of FS1 they will push the lil kids in the future to believe Kobe is not even top 15 watch 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️ these agendas be crazy
With Skip Bayless leaving, FS1 is looking to make Nick Wright the face of the network, per
@MMcCarthyREV
“According to my sources, FS1 executives believe First Things First star Nick Wright is the future of the network. But do they really want to take the 39-year-old Wright and
SMH it’s mamba day and youBron fans tweeting this soft shit, Niggaa make the bucket ! Can’t wait for them to trade him off my team yall make the lakers look bad
Whatttf ?? Kobe had his way with Lebron, even after Kobe got hurt and when Bron was on super teams , Kobe did what he wanted to against Bron 😭😭😭😭😭😭 you never seen prime Kobe
@NBACARTALK
I watched LeBron dog him almost every match up, watched lebron achieve more, watched lebron play better for longer, debate was a huge thing in 2013 I remember that. I had zero idea people still thought kobe was over lebron until twitter, don't know a single person irl who does 😂
Kobe did this , and won 5 chips (a 3peat and back to back) plus 9 first team all defensive teams, while being the first to score 60 in 3 quarters and 81 point game, while having the largest 50 point streak since Jordan in 88 twice, and the most game winners in 1 season,

Kenyon Martin and his take on Kobe Bryant on Gilbert's Arenas Podcast
Did you know that JJ Barea & the Mavs swept Kobe Bryant & the defending Champs LA Lakers in the 2011 WCSF. They absolutely bottled up Kobe as he went 38 for 83 from the floor for the series & got steam rolled by 36 pts in a GM 4 sweep.
Now you know.
Bron definitely was great 🔥 but people was watching kobe win 5 chips in 10 years while doing this every night while getting 9 straight first team all defense while dropping 60 + 80+ in the 2000s
@shannonsharpeee
Did I just hear
@ShannonSharpe
say that Lebron has the most shots , in 1 second , of a play off game then anybody in the last 25 years so that makes him more clutch then Kobe or MJ ? 😭😭😭😭 why do espn continue to let this football player speak on basketball 🤣😭🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Fun fact 99.9% of all people who think Lebron is Better then Kobe also thinks Lebron originated the terms “taking my talents to” south beach
Just to put it in perspective how much they living in a false reality
Whenever the world calls
@stephenasmith
for being the bum ass media PLANT that he is, he always say Kobe was his friend just because he interviewed him in 05 SMH Kobe ain’t fuck with you and we don’t either 🤦🏾♂️
Rare video of the media plant low basketball IQ
@stephenasmith
, scoring a life changing interview with the late great
@kobebryant
in 2010 during Kobe’s media run, do yall see how respectful he sounds
Duncan has 1 season above 23 ppg and 10 seasons under 20 ppg he not a better scorer playmaker, Kobe is better in the post better free throw shooter better footwork, and better DEFENDER, Duncan is only a rim defender, it’s 0 things Duncan can do better then Kobe on the court!
Happy New Year Everyone , Happy Kobe Bryant Year

in Honor for Kobe Year Let Rewind 01-01-2010 IME Udoka Missed Two clutch free throw for a two possession Game & Kobe Bean Bryant Wasn’t going the overtime Bs 🫡 Rip Mamba 🐐
Member the good ole days when you judged basketball players by Skill level, dominance level and Rings? , now if somebody got a better Fgp% it means they better

Thanks for checking them dumb statements
@SHAQ
, he didnt want to get it in to much i could tell but ill say it for him Kareem had Magic Bron had Dwade, AD, Bosh, Kyrie Love ETC why only use it to discredit Kobe?
Alot of my basketball takes just be barbershop talk (Duncan AI Kareem ETC) but when I say Kobe is better than Lebron I mean that SHIT ! Bron was not fucking with him on that court ! Shove the career longevity stats and teams record up yo ass
Aye
@houseofhighlights
why is it so hard to find this video on YouTube where Kobe hit 3 consecutive fade aways on Bron while being double teamed in the last min of the game? Y’all have every game but this ? But that 1 shot bron hit over Kobe showed up 4 different times on your pg
I might have to tag
@stephenasmith
in every post i make until he debates me, he needs a long time of studying to debate us because that dumb shit he said early aint going to cut it
@shendy456
Lol if he got drafted to LA WITH SHAQ ? Why would it ? Not the same as him running g to get help from Dwade , Bosh , and ray Allen because Kobe was winning chips every year
Didn’t Kobe beat every team lebron lost to for his 5th ring and Second back to back with out another player averaging over 18ppg while having the hardest road to championship while having the most clutch season in nba history
Kobe beat every team Bron got his ass kicked by for his second back to back against the most 50+ win teams ever while averaging 30+ in the playoffs and finals while winning (something bron never done) while having the most Clutch SEASON ever
#ithitdifferent
#goofy
Kobe is the last person to 3peat , also last person to go back to back more than once, highest scoring game ever, last 1 to win first team all defense while winning a scoring title(2x), most game winners in a season, there is no legitimate goat debate w/o Kobe

Prime example of recency bias cuz floyd would have did crawford worst then he did Canelo, I
Love crawford tho but even if Crawford tagged Floyd once he would adjust and DOMINATE the rest of the fight

I bet you didn’t know Kobe Bryant did the “Honey Dip” dunk (arm in the rim) in 1997, 3 years before Vince Carter did to win the NBA Dunk Contest. Rip Kobe!
