re: Phil Jackson on Kobe and MJ

Wish I was old enough to have seen enough of Jordan to know if he was really THAT good. I remember being a kid and him playing but I don't really remember specifics and styles until Kobe came on the scene. Kobe is my favorite player ever but I recognize he's not "the best" I've seen in my life although I don't like using that phrasing.

Kobe is the most badass basketball player I've seen. I feel comfortable saying that. Shaq was the most valuable player I've ever seen. He's the only player I've seen run shite like he was playing against college kids. Lebron is the probably the best mix of everything I've seen. When he started shooting the ball well he really became the complete package. People will always hold it against him that his body seems like it was designed with the specific intention of playing basketball. It makes it harder to see the skill.
