Once again, Magic Johnson concedes "best Laker ever" title to Kobe
I recently created a thread explaining why I think that Kobe was the greatest Laker ever, and certain posters had trouble accepting the fact that even MAGIC HIMSELF bestowed that title upon Kobe.
Here is another instance of him giving Kobe the credit he deserves, May 20th on the Jimmy Kimmel Show...

Let us not forget that Magic only has TWO signature moments, Kobe has an entire catalog.

Best players to play for the lakers:
1) Kareem
2) Shaq
3) wilt
4) magic
5) kobe
6) west
2 through to 4 are interchangeable of course.

When coaches vote Kobe into 10+ all defensive teams haters say = oh those votes don't count.
When coaches vote Magic as the best lakers haters say = oh those votes count.

some random execs/coaches - Kobe is 2nd best
ok.
There's nothing wrong with 2nd place, don't see what the big deal is. Not like he was 12th.

It depends on the context. Magic and Kobe to me are arguable either way, just depends on which era you grew up on. Obviously the coaches/executives can relate to the 80s more than they do to the modern era, a lot of them grew up idolizing Magic.
Nothing wrong with that.
