    So we are saying its easier to become as good as Dirk is at 6'5'' than 7'1''?

    Considering the game he plays...I dont know about that.

    Dirk is a more talented midrange/outside scorer than an awful lot of hall of fame guards.

    He didnt just....pull that out of the air because hes 7 feet tall. If he did...why is he the only bigman who ever did it*?


    *with all due respect to the slightly smaller Bob Mcadoo and Jerry Lucas

    I dont know why people keep thinking Kobe is gonna fall off. I noticed people write him off due to age like 3-4 years ago.

    He just doesnt seem like the type to fall off early to me.
    "It's not the age, it's the mileage. Michael has highway miles, I have offroad miles."

    Kobe's knees are shaky and obv the achilles injury. He's not "old" but he has a lot of wear and tear.

    His game, a lot of start/stop, quick jumps, change of direction. It destroys your joints.

    What would Kobe be without great bigs? Also, 38% chuck mode and 2/9 record being considered great nowadays? okay.

    He's the greatest of all time. This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone...GOAT skills, footwork, work ethic, killer instinct, looks and these are the results. 36 years old and STILL best player in the NBA, 19 years of dominance and counting
