Prior to Game 7 of the 2010 NBA Finals [@CBSNews article]
“If the greatest player in the world and his Lakers conquer the Celtics, and win Game 7 of the Finals. It will mean it's time to start talking about Kobe as potentially THE GREATEST PLAYER OF ALL TIME.
A fifth NBA championship from the 12-time NBA All-Star will certainly put him in the Jordan discussion. Jordan finished with six, two sets of threepeats. If Los Angeles wins Game 7, Bryant will be one title behind Jordan (with a threepeat & back-to-back titles)
Around here, as someone who covered Kobe with the only other team he ever played for, Lower Merion High School, it's an unbiased, educated view that's beginning to make more sense every day.
But this is really an argument that goes beyond points and stats, isn't it? Anyone who watches Bryant has to marvel at the impossible angles he makes shots with two defenders draped all over him. He's a better outside shooter than Jordan was. He plays all areas of the game, and is dominating games much the same way as Mike did.
Sorry to all the Kobe haters out there.”
