Yup maybe mj might help the kings win the title
Read it especially the mj vs kobe comparisons.The best part is when they say" Kobe is now unquestionably the greatest threat to take over mjs throne".

HAWK23 · 07-28-2002, 03:39 PM

Shaq

You can't predict the future. Odds are that one day, sometime, there will be a better and more successful player than MJ

Jordan to the Lakers??? He would become the 3rd option for the defending champions. He could get about 14-17ppg for the Lakers. He would reunite with Phil and join a team with his friend Kobe. Talk about a three-headed beast , Shaq-Kobe-Michael=Championship. They could trade Kareem Rush for MJ. They don't really need Rush since he is a 2 guard and they have a certain player named Kobe at his position. They also have Shaw, George who can play the 2.

C-Shaquille O'Neal/Mark Madsen/Stanislav Medvadenko
PF-Samaki Walker/Robert Horry
SF-Michael Jordan/Rick Fox
SG-Kobe Bryant/Devean George
PG-Derek Fisher/Brian Shaw/Jannero Pargo

Kobe will never be better than MJ & Kobe doesn't want to be like MJ either, he has stated over and over, that he wants to be the best he can for himslef, It's not his fault at all that all these experts, sports writers and the media would make those comparisons, he never once stated " I wanna be like Mike " He studied MJ throughout his childhood, and as a true athlete, you want to learn from the best, MJ himself has provided nice compliments and praises to Kobe's NBA growth. Besides Kobe is the only player of today being compared to the great MJ.

Back to the subject....
I have'nt heard anything about MJ to the Kings???
Man......If that happens.........ohh boy!!!
The Kings have targeted - K.Clark & Donyell Marshall...
and might be even close to an agreement with one of them?
They're gonna bring every goods against the Champs...

No way MJ is going to the Kings. He is going to play with the Wiz next season in a backup role and then hang it up. I hope to see him play against the Hornets next season, so I hope he does not hang it up sooner.

Ha! You have Carter over Kobe!

You think people will give a damn what you think when you have Vince Carter over Kobe Bryant!

**"Matt!"** · 07-28-2002, 07:35 PM

Let me explain this delicately...

MJ didn't just pick the Wizards out of a hat; last time I checked...

HE IS AN OWNER OF THE TEAM

SikHandlez24 · 07-28-2002, 07:40 PM

Last time I checked I believe he was partial owner of the team. And before he came back he sold that portion. You can't own and play on a team at the same time.

mambo47 · 07-28-2002, 08:52 PM

The fact thet Jordan "is not now a part-owner" is a mere formality.
Why do you think he is playing for a lousy 1 ml. per yr?, screwing up his knees and risking divorce?
HE IS RAISING THE VALUE OF HIS INVESTMENT. Stop thinking
like a child - or are you? That was unnecessary - DP

This will never happen. In simple terms, Michael Jordan singlehandedly brought the nba to where it is today. He is quite possibly the most recognized athlete on the planet. He alone probably tripled the nba's value during his playing career. No basketball player will ever be as successful as Micheal Jordan. Now on the court is a different story... I dont think Kobe will, although hes the closest of the current crop of great young 2 guards. Even equaling his feats on the court will be very difficult, if he had not missed several years because of retirement he might be the best scorer of all time, and still is on average, i think.

To: Hawk23

Kobe is better that Vince & Thug life - Iverson....
Vince - due to injuries and all, he's also shown some inconsistency
A.I. - Handcuffed and all, wasn't nowhere to be found last year - inconsistent......

STING · 07-28-2002, 10:52 PM

Its possible that one day a player could have more success than MJ, you could even make a case that MJ isn't the best player of all time as it is. As for me, I'm still an Air fan at heart, and I still believe hes the best ever.

But Kobe, is not who i would pick to take his place.

1 - Because he draws aLOT of negative attention, hes cocky, he gets in fights, and he always has an arrogant attitude. Sometimes hes a cool guy, but not to his opponents

2 - Becuase he tries way too hard to impress people, when he should be trying to win. I'm not saying he is a bad player at all, I think he is one of the best. But before I will ever respect Kobe Bryant, he has to quit the show, and start to play.

**Damian Necronamous** · 07-28-2002, 11:01 PM

He gets into fights?

He's gotten into one. And it's not like the guy he got in the fight with wasn't asking for it. It was Reggie Miller, the biggest trash talker in the game.
