MJ on KB24: "I would say he has got to be in the Top 10."

[BigBalla44]

Of course, there's always the comparison of you and Kobe Bryant. Where does Kobe stand in the status of NBA players through history?
It's so hard to say. I think he is always going to be within the conversations of some of the greatest players who've played by the time he is finished. Where does he rank among those, if you are talking about positions? If you are talking about guards, I would say he has got to be in the Top 10

Top ten guards of all time? I agree.

Remember, that includes Point Guards.

[ImmortalD24]

nice try but u failed.

[evilmonkey]

I think this was more interesting:

How has the game changed from your playing days?
Jordan: It's less physical and the rules have changed, obviously. Based on these rules, if I had to play with my style of play, I'm pretty sure I would have fouled out or I would have been at the free throw line pretty often and I could have scored 100 points.

Couldnt fit the whole sentence in the subject field and I did quote the whole question in this post. Check my post history if you think Im one of those people. There is no agenda here. Relax.

[chomskytool]

anyone who actually watched jordan play would not disagree with any thing he says in this article, especially with the part about 100 pts in a game.

mj scored over 60 against one of the GOAT teams of all times in the Playoffs
kobe scored 81 against one of the worst teams in the league in the regular season.


if anyone doesnt think jordan couldn't match or exceed 100 points in how the game is played now, your simply an idiot and a hater.

remember again freakin David Robinson scored 70 in a game.....again the regular freakin season!!!

we are talking about prime Jordan!!!

I don't know about 100 points, but man oh man, he'd have a field day with these weak ass rules.

Haha. Probably true.

Yes.

If Kobe got 10 rings it would not be an indictation he is a better player than Jordan.
