To me, at this point, the whole comparing Kobe to Jordan thing is just funny. Not funny cause MJ is the GOAT and he’s on his own planet, but cause hardcore MJ fans always get so tight and upset about it to the point it pisses them off (though Jordan says Kobe is the only who could be compared to him). No matter if it’s the simple common comparison like they did back in 98, to comparing their similar photos over their careers now. They get so upset and it’s beyond humorous to me.
I’m a Kobe fan obviously, and I’ve watched him long enough over the years to know how good the Kobster is. I know what he is and what he isn’t.
I also know, though I didn’t see that much of Jordan in his glory days (I vaguely remember the the tail end of his Bulls days), he’s the GOAT. The Greatest. I know Kobe will never be the GOAT, and I’m fine with that. I’m content with Kobe being as high on the Top 10 of All-Time list as possible; like how he is on some people’s lists such Bill Simmons’ (#8) and Charles Barkley’s (6, 7 or 8).
If he doesn’t get any higher, I’ll be able to sleep at night. (Though I know he won’t be able to in retirement if he doesn’t have 7 rings— one more than Jordan). But Jordan fans (or stans) shouldn’t be so upset at comparisons as much as they are. I mean, we all know Jordan is the absolute greatest. Period. That’s all you need to know, or say. So chill the fuck out.
