    Kobe is actually a highly gifted passer in terms of natural vision and pure ability, it's just that his shot selection isn't great and he goes into gunner mode too often. Dude has some unreal playmaking highlights when he's in a good situation, like the Frobe years and 08-10 repeat teams, and doesn't feel the need to go into Retardbe mode like he's doing with regularity right now.

    Melo isn't terrible..I'd say he's a hair below average...it just looks terrible because we're used to seeing star wing players have high-level vision like MJ, Lebron, Wade, Kobe, etc and Melo just doesn't have it at that level. Also he's got the same scoring mindset as Kobe but he's not nearly as good at it as prime Kobe, so his lesser vision is highlighted even more.

    Kobe will retire with the most assists from a non point guard of all time.

    Kobe actually has great court vision and ability to dissect a defense. He just has an alpha gunner mentality. Comparing him to Melo is such an insult. Melo is what Kobe detractors pretend Kobe is.
