I watched both player actually play the game not just out of context stats. Kobe was a great player,winner and game day killer. KD is a great player,winner but hes not a killer in any way. That is the difference between these 2 and many others. KD cant be greater than Kobe cause he left OKC to go to Steph team cause he couldnt beat Curry 73 win team and he knew he couldnt beat LeBron in big games unless he stacked the deck just like he done with Brooklyn now. Had he stayed in OKC and won a title he would be legit top 10 all time if he won multiple titles we could see him being top 5 but as is hes top 15 and clearly behind Lebron,Kobe,Shaq and Duncan in the era after Jordan.
Bomani Jones said KD is better than Kobe. :-0

Still no direct basketball comparison between Kobe and KD. I know you miss him dude. You will compare KD to Steph even post metrics detailing your argument but not to Kobe?But you not an MJ/Kobe stan? You dudes love for swirlers is hilarious.
Your AD is more important than LeBron takes are based off him being light skinned. Instant respect that aint based off basketball or actual production. LeBron minus AD whoops the Dubs twice by 30 this year and you aint even post. Then 2 weeks later you talking 2017 Finals again? Weak.
Their love for certain players is based on their proximity to white people not their stats. Thats why they NOW say stats dont matter. Pull up threads from 2010-2012 and some of these same stans were posting and championing stats. If you married to a white woman look at the natural deference you get in these discussions.Cats quietly want to whiten the game.
Kd and kobe don't really match up.
I can't compare because they just played different positions
2 guard vs 3 guard
Wake me up when kd scores 62 points in 3 quarters
There's a difference between better career and better player.
Once you get to their level, you can make an argument for both in regard to who is better.
But I try not to make these type of arguments until both players careers are over. Same with that Jordan and Lebron shit.

KD is a seven foot freak of nature
Yeah but he's not a "Killer" on the court. Kobe was truly a cold blooded "mamba."....he would look mfkrs dead in their eyes and say that's the mfkr I gotta cross up, dunk on or sink this 3 on with the game on the line.
Again KD hasn't shown he's the alpha on the court. There is clear video of Kobe saying "Give ME the ball!" Or "Next time give me the ball!"
When a game needed to be won, he demanded and commanded the ball....and "If I pass it you, you better not miss!" How many times you see KD waiting in the wing or at the arc for a pass to shoot the last shot from Steph, Draymond or Klay?!....Kobe would never.
Sure he should've he spent 12 seasons there, a lot of his prime years.....but he still decided to demand a trade.....and went to his friend's team..... he needed his friend to get him to the Promise Land.
He lost with Karl Malone, Gary Payton, and shaq.. did we not forget thisReplace Kobe with KD on them old OKC teams and they get a chip. Kobe never used burner accounts.
he lost to a team full of role players did we not forget this?
if the refs weren’t calling bullshit vs the kings lakers might not have as many rings did we not forget this?
kobe vs 2 ball hoggers Westbrook and harden..let’s see how that might pan out.. also brooks was his head coach not Phil Jackson.. do you think the lakers would have won 5 rings with brooks as their head coach? Do you think okc would’ve loss if Phil Jackson was their coach? Let’s not forget history please
People talking about kd not a killer.. did this nig not come into the playoffs with a fucked up foot and hit like 11 shots in a row.. but ended up fucking up his acl for the betterment of the team.. the team that lost it without him
kobe and kd are both nice.. they are both great scorers.. you use them differently... kd has the capability to put up 30 easy with limited touches.. kobe needs to have the ball in his possession for long periods of time to do the same thing... under certain systems kobe cant do what kd can and visa versa.. they are different type of players

Cant believe we used to take you serious in these discussions. Dont worry, we wont anymore.
Can’t argue that.
KD could if he wanted to though. Steph could too. Its just not winning basketball in today's game.

It's sad because you saying we is just all of your own personalities and nobody else
It's such an odd comparison too
If we're going all of the tools then maybe kobe? And by tools that's intangibles
But kd has everything physically he is a prototype where kobe isn't

Nigga made 22 free throws that game. Pretty sure KD could if needed
Best summary here
No, we is everyone watching you expose yourself as a Kobe and Jordan stan after lying and pretending to be a Dubs fan for 5 years just cuz you hate 1 Black man. Who does that?
Someone that is cookoo. Someone thats missing their marbles. Your dedication to always rooting against LeBron would impress even white people. I doubt there's a white athlete you could root against that long.The irony is there are actually Kobe stans in here addressing the thread topic. While you cant get out of the way of your own ego and lies and refuse to. Its sad state of affairs. You not even posting about the current Dubs anymore bruh. Exposed like Steph on an average team. Notice only fellow LeBron haters co sigining your posts.
What deep analysis.
Why didnt you call Kobe odd when he directly compared himself to Durant 10 years ago?
Or say they were odd to print this 9 years ago....
Palmer: Who's better - Durant or Bryant
Chris Palmer pits Kevin Durant against Kobe Bryant across seven categories to determine which player is better right now.
That was during your Thunder days when Russ and KD animated gifs stayed in your sig so I know you remember right?

I hope he has given your life the meaning you think it does

I didn't call kobe odd in here
I said it was an odd comparison to compare the two.
Do you see this people?
The liar just lied on me in front of you lol
Ahhh you mean the days where I went viral with that gif before you knew what viral was?
When I didn't like westbrook's style and then saw it was his coaching so was his biggest critic then biggest defender cause you know what happens? You look at shit and grow and things happen and you change your opinions on things.
This is sad famalama
You're like remember 10 years ago when....
Lmao
No I don't
And I'm not the same as I was 10 years ago
And if you are that explains a whole lot
Log off here and enjoy Saturday man please
you mean like the time he was up 3-1 to a Phoenix Suns team playing 7 players in one of the biggest choke jobs in playoffs history?
the stans are always good for a laugh.
the stans are always good for a laugh.
Man...Kobe is one of the goats no doubt if we talking about pure shooting.....he couldn't see Steph or KD in shooting. What them dudes do is unreal. Especially KD. KD just shoots over the top of you the shit not even fair.At the end of his career
That revisionist history man lol....them dudes forget every thing until they get reminded of it.you mean like the time he was up 3-1 to a Phoenix Suns team playing 7 players in one of the biggest choke jobs in playoffs history?
bump!
Better… 
That faggot idolater @TimRock still wears his Kobe jersey whenever the Lakers play on TV (but only games LeBron sits out)Kobe and Jordan's stats used to get posted and mattered at one time. Now that they have been surpassed, you can only hold them up based off subjective things that cant be measured. Over time that isnt gonna last. Stats and production say alot about player. Kobe and Jordan are arguably the 2 biggest icons in NBA history as far as "celebrity", but there are several players who are better basketball players than both. Equating their celebrity and marketability into them being the best basketball players between the lines is a mistake.
Kobe went from "the closest thing to Jordan" to being seen as lesser than Durant who is seen as lesser than Steph Curry on BGOL. So now both KD and Curry are better than him.
You are right about that, allegedly.
Better…
Why is it OK for Kobe stans to say KD is as good or better than LeBron for a decade, but no matter what he does on the court he can't compare to Kobe? How does that make sense.
KD had the best playoff game of his career last night and not one person who hyped it in the NBA thread would engage this thread. It makes people feel the KD talk is hype.
KD is the 2nd best scorer in NBA history. He just passed LeBron for best in league. Kobe never had a performance like this in the playoffs.
Kobe scoring splits could never touch Durant in any erar. KDs three point shoting is what set him apart from Kobe. KD being 6"10+ allows him to guard 1-5 and make him a equal if not better finisher at the basket KD is an "All Time" problem and an all time Top Five player.

I disagree with part of your post but props on being one of the few to say KD is better than Kobe. Kobe is liked for being married to a white woman and wanting to disassociate from his Blackness. The NBA is a popularity contest. The fact that the KD whisperers of BGOL don't want to compare him to Kobe (who they like and respect so much more) shows this.
That’s Gif boy shtick
He always, always brings something else into the argument. Trannies, Larry bird, Benny from sandlot etc
