you cant compare anyone to jordan because none of these modern day stars have scottie pippen. I'm sorry but I dont think in a team game Kobe will ever have a decent shot a being compared to Michael. Scoring 100 in a game wont even do it.... unless kirk hinrich takes the mle and the wolves trade garnett. seriously... then theyd win 4 championships in a row... and kobe would be the best ever.
or suns coulda drafted pippen and then traded for barkley.... and then those two would have a load of rings.
seriously its not how great you are, but who you play with. Kobe's talent is up there with anyone

come on mayne. in a league where bigs win championships, its fair to say MJ was in a whole nother league. players like hakeem wouldnt be as great if mj never retired. malone would have a ring. barkley would have one. so on and so on. id bet my life bigs like duncan and ben wallace and shaq would be not as great as they are now if they played in mjs era. kobe is lucky to be so young. put him in mjs era and he is a great player...but no legend.
imagine mj with a decent big, let alone shaq! seriously, taking away pippen isnt as big as taking away shaq. kobe will NEVER win a ring again...
