It's a pretty sad thing in reality. Kobe lately has been crossing off Jordan's records like Johnny crosses off his checklist at the grocery store. You gotta give props to Kobe but also feel sad for MJ in the same regard. Even with Kobe being the GOAT, the ultimate dagger is going to be that sixth ring Kobe has by the time he retires. Very sad, indeed, but good for the sport in general.
Also feeling sad for Lebron and Wade because it was just dumb luck that they still have to deal with Kobe in their primes. If you think about it, if Lebron was in the weaker Jordan era as Bird and Magic were declining, where most of the 1 and 2 spots were small, he would of flourished and would of had several rings by now. Seriously Jordan had a big advantage back then and he was only 6'6...and look at Lebron...he is like 6'9 and just as athletic.
Both(Wade and Bron) of their careers are diminishing because they decided to join forces, and came up short last year despite having put together 3 superstars. Lebron hasn't measured up to the hype, Wade has degenerated to the "Robin" sidekick role, and no one even acknowledges Bosh.
So while we get to continue to enjoy Kobe's reign at LG, we should respect, honor, and feel sad for MJ, Lebron, and Wade at the same time.

Well, but he's not doing it in a good-fashion way.. Either when the he/or the team plays like crap or he put up 30+ shots to get it.
He didn't got them in a consistent and pretty ways.
Still love him tho. Hopefully he's #1 in everything by his career is done. Or just passed MJ in all. _________________ You miss 100 percent of the shots you never take.

Unfortunately for us he will never have as many finals MVP. The award everyone here says is the most prestigious _________________ If lakers don't win ring lets hope it's the Brons of miami
So if one day, your son or grandchildren decided to make a thread/or have a conversation that discussing about how great you once were, you would consider them as trolling?
Players like Kobe is to be APPRECIATE. Not to be flaming at with bashing threads. _________________ You miss 100 percent of the shots you never take.

It's pretty clear this is a "Kobe fanboy" troll at least to me. Look at his post history... _________________
Yeah, he's looking to incense people into an argument. Kobe is a legend and if someone believes the GOAT, so be it. Kareem and MJ have a better argument than Kobe for GOAT.
I don't agree that this thread is about trolling.
It's just it lacks pie charts, bar graphs, the highly touted Hollinger's magic stats, quotes from coaches, teammates and those who don't know basketball like the late John Wooden, Jerry West and even MJ himself.

OP is a troll disguised as a Kobe fan. These posts are to get a rise out of people.
