Kobe Bryant working it out on tough defenses

Recommended Posts

8 minutes of a 15 year career. Cool video.

np, Jordans career would be too large and cant fit on a youtube video, but nether less it was a cool video i agree :glasses:

Specially since it was made in response to this kobe kid who claims jordan didn't have to deal with zones, double/ or tripled teams like kb.

Here's the video it was made in response too.

"kobe and his unstopable mentality compared to the older days isolations and todays zone defenses

kobe is better than jordan because jordan had week defences on him and almost no double teams

 

kobe gets both of them every game."

 

Lmao that was in his info box or w/e you call it, Grade A ownage

Fouls go uncalled here and there, just as illegal defense did. You couldn't get away with the zone most of the time, though, in Jordan's era.

 

You can give me those examples, and if I had every Jordan game he ever played, I'd crush your argument by providing you all of that footage.

 

Like I said before, you need to start listening to the people that actually watched MJ every game.

 

You know what I should do? I should go through Kobe's season (this one) and give you 100 of his shots, all makes, and say he is shooting 100% this season. That's exactly what you're doing.

 

Get over it.

Really? Cause the arguments I hear is that its not that teams did not run zone most of the time, its just refs rarely called for it or cared. Teams would use it to help disrupt jordans game. I'm just showing clips for visual evidence, must I show all the games hes played? Why on earth would analyst, coaches, players, and fans of the game say jordan constantly faced tough doubles/triples/zones/physical defenses/handchecking/entire teams against him, if it was rarely done?

 

Start listening? where do you think I'm getting my info from? haha, obviously I'm too young to have fully appreciated jordans career and understand it from game to game bases, but I would not be making these assumptions based on a few utube clips. Must I get my dad to make a post? Hes 51 years old and has watched jordan and the bulls respectfully since the beginning. Or maybe I should get my uncle who's 57 years old, lived in the suburbs of chicago his whole life, and is more active in sports betting than anyone I know, to put his 2cents into it? Not that it bleeping matters, since its just one persons view of the game vs another.

 

Point basically, your gonna need a more valid argument other than, "I've watched all of mj's games and you haven't, even though I was only 7-9 years old when mj won his first ring". I provide stats and percentages, you say they dont mater, I provide visual evidence, you say youtube clips don't matter, quotes of players and coaches/analyst, you say they dont matter. And its not as if I'm taking it from only one source, couple sources, or a biased source, its a common ground on which many other people did some thorough research and debunked the claims.

 

Only thing that matters is that you claim to have watched his whole career, even though your argument includes a bunch of what if's and what thats, like what if kobe did not play with shaq? What if kobe was given the green light? What if kobe was not so damn lazy on defense at times and gave it his full effort? What if kobe did not have phil jackson? What if kobe was the primary scoring option since day one? What if kobe came before jordan?

 

Lets go ahead and play the "what if" game for every other player in the league while we are at it.

 

But, I do respect you for creating your own opinion and observation of the game. Its just that I, like so many others, simply disagree with it. I provide facts and knowledgeable analyst, so take it as you wish, and get over it.

 

And, when mj was 38 years old on the wizards, his first 42 games of that season before he ran into knee/work load problems that slowed him down and put him on the injury list ,Jordan was only one of two players to average more than 25 points, 5 assists, and 5 rebounds as he led the Wizards to a 26–21 record. They ended finishing the season 37-45 after that.

 

You say if players such as pippen ect make a comment, you will give it some thought?

but yeah, what does pippen know, or his opinion does not matter cause its obvious hes trying to protect "his era".
