He's right though. Jordan was the best ever to play the game. Yeah Kobe is good. But not as good as MJ.

He should've learned to be like Kobe. Instead of living off your dads name how about you work on your game. These kids discust me.


How you gonna take after Juanita and your mj's son.


And no kobe isnt jordan. But he's the closest thing you'll ever see to jordan.

I agree with everything you just said. He averaged like 2 PPG in 14 MPG. That's pretty bad. I thought he was supposed to be real good?

I think your talking about jeff thats the one who played for Illnois, Marcus averaged 8.0 ppg at UCF. Their really athletic, marcus is the best kid. But neither one are stars, though marcus could be decent.

what i hate even more is when people expect the children of legendary athletes to play just like them

Most these kids just play the sport their dad played because thats all they know, if you grew up with a basketball player as your dad and you see him on TV and on magazine covers as you grow up of course your gonna want to be like him. I'm pretty sure if MJ was yalls dad yall would hate it too if they compared someone like Kobe to His Airness.

Yeah I am, my bad. I misread that part of the article wrong. That's not too bad though.

When did I ever say I expect them to play like MJ. I've been keeping up with these kids for years. I recall watching them play Eric Gordon about 2-3 years ago. And I sat there expecting them to do something decent. Instead I watched EG give them 40 points and almost have as many total points as there team.

Like I said..Kobe dad's played in the league too. Kobe wasnt content of living off jellybeans name. He wanted his own name and now he's regarded as one of the best to ever touch a bball. There is no comparison if your a real bball fan. MJ is the goat. But kobe is the closest thing you'll ever see to a MJ. This is America we are constantly worried about finding "The next somebody". In Basketball The next mj's have been: Harold Miner, Grant, Penny,Kobe, VC,T-mac. Kobe's just been constantly compared to him because of the playing style, the mannerisms, the work ethic, the drive to be the best, rings.

Honestly, you can't compare Kobe and MJ. The NBA changed as a whole and there really is no way to compare their games in 2 different styles of gameplay in the NBA

Kobe is Kobe and you can't compare any player to mj.

wtf? Yes you can compare them.. That's what sports are all about, comparing.. The comparison is not close, MJ is way better. Just look at the finals. MJ never let his team get to 7 games, always finished in 6 or better, and never put up a 6-24 game in a close out game.

And lol at saying these kids didn't live up to MJ, were they suppose to? That's so much pressure, not to mention its impossible.

I'm just sayin you can't compare Jordan to anybody. His stats are unreal that u can't even compare it to kb or even lebron.

Game 6 of the '98 Finals. Jordan missed 20 shots, only had 1 rebound, and 1 assist.

In a decade no one's going to remember Kobe's bad game just like no one remembers Jordan's. All anyone's going to remember is that these guys won. That's why winning is so important in this sport because it's all anyone really remembers.

If the game was just about stats...my dude Wilt would be the goat.

Kobe isnt jordan...but to act like he's some scrub is ridicolous. Guy is on pace to be a arguable top 10 player of all time.
