The title is misleading. Phil basically says that Kobe used Jordan's moves at first but became less and less Jordan-like as time went on, so the comparisons are fading.

The title isn't misleading at all. He was talking about the comparison and how Kobe really wanted to be Michael Jordan early on in his career.

[BallersTalk]

You guys understand that Phil is STILL Kobe's coach right? Anything he says right now will be biased. Wait until he's no longer coach. Remember his book? THAT was unbiased cause he released it when he was no longer coach.

i agree with Phil. kobe has been copying bird recently.

He's more like a guard version of Hakeem this season.

[Quizno]

seriously, kobe has no moves of his own. sometimes he bounces the ball off of the floor so it hits his hand, then bounces it continuously up the court. blatant thievery from the way john stockton would bounce the ball. and those times where he jumps into the air and throws the ball toward the basket and it goes in? wow, trying way too hard to be like pete maravich. he's pathetic.

I knew he was being sarcastic. It just sounded like he was being emotional because Phil said the 100% truth.

Kobe has emulated Michael Jordan almost to a T. If you can't see that, I don't know what to say.

But, but, but if we don't down Kobe for copying MJ what else can we criticize him for? You gotta leave something for his haters to talk about, he already has proved he can win without Shaq.

all current nba players emulate retired nba players what does that have to do with anything. someone like kobe has known since his first step he was born to play ball. he studied to best (jordan, hakeem, ect.) in order to become the best. and jordan studied folks like elgin baylor and so on and so on.

[phoenix18]

I will like to take the time to speak.
*clears throat*

Kobe is just not.... hmmm... how do I say this? Dude just doesnt have a real flavored personality so it probably took a while for the essence of his game to come out.

this whole thing about stealing players' movies is seriously one the worst arguments i've ever heard. once upon a time in baseball, pitchers just threw the damn ball. then, some guy invented the curve ball, so was everybody who learned to throw a curve ball just copying him? no, dumb****, the game evolves.
