So do we all agree: Jordan > Kobe > Lebron

[BigBoss]

it really isnt. he posted a video of 20 career dunks on mutombo


just kobe bryant himself has 20 career dunks on tim duncan

[Nowitness]

Duncan defense is overrated, its good but not at all time great.. Dude cant even win DPOY in his prime against an ancient Mutombo.. LOL

I've asked a bunch of ISH members to explain why Duncan isn't a legendary/top tier defender, and every time they boil it down to "he's overrated."

kid wasnt lying

kobe circlejerkers are brain dead sheep

[fpliii]

those dont stand out enough

i need individuality

idk man

[knicksman]

career wise = jordan > kobe > lebron

single season peak wise = jordan > lebron > kobe

prime = jordan > lebron > kobe

longevity = kobe > jordan > lebron (yet to be seen)

overall skills = lebron > jordan > kobe

Having a more diverse set of skills doesn't make you the better player. Oscar definitely had more tricks up his sleeves than most, but that doesn't mean you're a better a player. Shaq had very few moves he could do, but he's still easily top 7 all time. Of course you're knicksman, so you have the reading comprehension of a 2 year old, so I wouldn't expect you to understand that.

overall=/=more skills

overall=/=more skills

Actually, it does. Having more weapons = more skills. That doesn't mean that the skills are as refined as Jordan's main weapons, but it still does mean more skills.

Swish hit the nail on the head. Bird and Jordan knew what their teams needed, at all times.

Bird goes 0-9? Bet you he'd still have 9 assists and a couple rebounds. Jordan? If his shot ain't falling, you bet your ass he and Pippen are hounding fools on the perimeter.

Bottom line, there is more to the game than chucking up shots. This hero ball bullshyt needs to die.

b..bbb...but... Kobe said he'd go 0-30 before 0-9

How anyone can ever say Lebron is more skilled than kobe, let alone michael jordan is one of the craziest things I've heard on this site

Exactly, I might consider LeBron as being a tad more physically gifted as a pure athlete than Jordan but in skills, both MJ and Kobe murk LeBron. Just look at their post moves/footwork compared to Bron

6/6 > 5/7 > 2/5

[Cold soul]

I agree OP.

Jordan
Kobe
Lebron

In that order for now.

[riseagainst]

how is lebron > MJ in overall skills?
