Is Kobe a better offensive player than MJ was?

I have been saying that for a while. He is more polished than MJ was.

There has been 14 50+ point games in the NBA this season & Kobe has 6 of them!!!

 

Gilbert has 3

 

Mike Redd has 2

Anyone remember the time Tony Delk went for 50?

I just wish he wasn't out west. I can never stay up for those late games:sleep:

I just spent sometime doing some basic figuring...I HATE Kobe Bryant, but recognize his amazing ability...I say he finishes SECOND in the career points scored catergory...bad news..he will never get close to Michael's titles, or legacy for that matter.

^ I'd say he will be close to both.

Agreed. Maybe not legacy, but I think he get a couple more titles probably.

In his last 5 games Kobe has scored 268 pts. and has 11 ast.

Kobe may be a better pure shooter then MJ was but he will never be the basketball player MJ was. Go back and watch so games of MJ in his prime. It will blow your mind.

Probably because he has Walton and Odom back the people who the triangle is run through a lot.
