Kobe is the most overrated player of all time

[HOoopCityJones]

Overrated by the fact that he gets called the "Best closer in the game" "All NBA Defensive 1st team" selections, people credit him with the rings, people list him in the top 10, best scorer of all time, etc.etc

He's overrated due to the hyperbole that's spewed without actual data to back it up. Actually the facts point otherwise.

He's not a top 10 player all time

He was never the clear cut consensus best player either.

By these and other metrics he's overrated.

So where's Kobe fall bro? since he's so overrated?

[aau]

Ni99as still but hurt Kobe been phucking their Teams for years, that's all this "Most overrated player of all time" BS is.

When he was winning rings in 2010 , all of these Kobe criticizers were Ghost.

Some of them probably former Laker bandwagoners at that.

How many of you have Kobe's profile on Basketball reference at the ready to point out any flaw in his game? That's alota dedication for a player that's supposedly overrated.

You know who's overrated? James Harden. But you don't see 1,000 threads and posts about him a day.

luv your style , don't get caught up with nonsense

let these cats circle-jerk themselves to death

this is like the 8th class of haters



most never graduate

He's overrated by any dumbass who desperately wants him to be MJ. He will never be MJ.

But aside from that, no. I think people have forgotten just how freakin good this guy was. It really sucks that his absolute peak as a player was wasted by playing with lumps of shit. Most people here only remember the broken down, one-dimensional Kobe who conserved energy for offense and played pitiful defense, the one we've been seeing for the past couple years. Kobe from 2001-2008 was just phenomenal, one of the best 2-way players ever. That Kobe deserves some respect.

The ni99a was just destroying their Teams a year ago.

They know what they're saying man.

Foos probably prayed and danced for the rain god when Kobe went down with the Achilles injury.

Now it's easy to talk shit.

Kobe is not top 10. You mad?

Kobe is definitely the most overrated player of all time. That said, I think the lowest you can rank him is 11-12. I have him at 10.

When did you become such a shit poster? I vaguely remember you being decent when I was lurking.

Bravo, you know what Basketball is son.

[SamuraiSWISH]

Don't get retarded. No player in the top 25 all-time is "overrated" ... take that hipster basketball agenda elsewhere. Talking gaga. He's probably the best guard since Jordan. At the least tied for 2nd best SG all-time with Jerry West. And one of the top five most defining players from his era. He's been relevant as one of the game's best players since 2001. Junior Mints Jordan.

Funny how the most overrated player of all time can generate this hooptedoodle from his detractors on a daily basis...
