Why is Kobes legacy aging like fine wine?

[Mr. Jabbar]

And why does the NBA connoisseur always picks Kobe over lebron?

Is it the hard-earned FIVE western rings?
Is it the loyalty to a team?
Is it despising collusion to the point of getting rid of another atg?
Is it the fact refs and league never made rules to favor him?
Is it his strong foundation when put under the eye-test and context lens?

IMO its a combination of all of them.

[superduper]

Because Kobe's haters stay keeping him relevant by keeping him on their mind way past retirement

[Vino24]

Curry, Harden and Durant will pass him in a few years. Bumpy roads ahead fam

Me, when I employ the eye test:

Me, when I employ the eye test:

Welcome.

To the Kobe cellar.

5/7 is going to give him a long respectful legacy.

Ah, a fine selection indeed

[riseagainst]

Aging feces is still feces, old and forgotten.

[warriorfan]

Kobe is aged fine wine

LeBron is stale Steel Reserve

[Doranku]

Need to get me some of that somehow. 2013 Kobe was one of my favorite versions of Kobe.

[Manny98]

Kobe stans are so retarded and delusional it's actually quite funny

[Real14]

Because Kobe came into the league off the bench and ultimately became the man which cemented him top 5 best NBA players of all timez

[Mr. Jabbar]

Ah, what a fine day to be alive
