The Perpetual NBA Thread

Carter to NJ: This will provide firepower to NJ but their "D" will also suffer. Remember, Carter is not known as a defensive player but rather an explosive one.

Maenwhile, Houston got a good player in Sura. He is a good ball handler with penetrating skills. Buti nalang and they(houston) got him. I think Houston needs some pure shooters and a good rebounder in the mold of (Allen/Stojakovic) & (Gooden/Boozer).

Kobe is the closest to Michael Jordan in terms of similarities of their playing style. However, Jordan is much unselfish when it comes to ball distribution, less turnovers made and field goal precentage.

Nobody can replace Michael "Air" Jordan

2 times Basketball Olympic Gold champion
NCCA Basketball champion - North Carolina(Tar heels)
1984 Rookie of the year

NO WAY! close to MJ, in terms of playing style maybe.

i admire both of them...but comparing them?....tsk..tsk, hirap nyan.

iba era nila...MJ dominated the 90's, while KOBE is just starting...he was part of the 3 LA championships though (as a sidekick of shaq).

kaya rin siguro gusto nya na magsolo....masyado lang kasi sya nagmamadali eh..dun din naman papunta yung career nya.

let's just wait till he retires.

walang makakapareha kay jordan, walang makakapareha kay magic, ganun din kay dr.j...at sa iba pang manlalaro kahit ano mang uri ng sports...

dadating din ang panahon...wala ring makakpareha kay kobe.

Is Kobe Bryant better than Michael Jordan? .....nah!

Kobe will never have the kind of RESPECT Jordan have.

Dude, MJ has no vice, no rape charges or anything that would soil his name. In the court, I'll bet my two cents on 22 year old Jordan versus 19 year old Kobe Bryant.
