True.
I'd definitely take all these over Kobe. He's somewhere 10-20.
MJ
Kareem
LeBron
Wilt
Bird
Magic
Shaq
Dream
Duncan
Dr. J
Karl Malone
Moses Malone
KG
Dirk

I was never a big Kobe fan, but anyone that says he's not top 10 is just hatin'.

Splitting hairs imo. I wouldn’t say he’s top 5-6, but he’s for sure top 15-20.
Top 10 is a push imo, he’s right on that fringe with a handful of other guys who are all right around the same caliber career wise.

Yeah. He had one Lakers year. I don't think he was better than Kobe, but he's close enough that I tried to give dude every benefit of every doubt.
This is weird logic. Malone was on his last leg as a Laker. Idk how you could argue him AS A LAKER was better than Kobe.

I tend to give Kobe a slight edge vs Wade,
kobe's edge over Wade is much more than slight.
also, i don't think anyone can definitively say Kobe was not a better all around basketball player than Bird or Magic. the automatic inclusion of both those guys in a top 5 all time list is partially built on 80s nostalgia.

That was not my arguement. Malone was a better player than Kobe and he was a Laker for a year.
Hell, Steve Nash was terrible in LA but he has twice as many league MVP's as Kobe.

he's about number ten IMO

Lol no way
Kobe gets such a vault because of his influence on pop culture.
He was not better than Wade & the numbers show that

MJ
Lebron
Bird
Shaq
Hakeem
Kareem
Maybe Wilt
those are the only players i'd definitely put over Kobe

Kobe's top five PER seasons:
28.0, 26.2, 26.1, 24.5, 24.4.
Wade's top five PER seasons:
30.4, 28.9, 28.0, 27.6, 26.3.
There are ways in which Wade owns Kobe, and that's coming from someone who gave Kobe an overall slight edge.

Yes he’s in the top 10 all time.
Also Kobe > Shaq
Fight me

But Kobe gave you more sustained great play, more seasons worth.

If lebron is a top 10 then Kobe is top 5.
