For those who hate on the best player in the league heres a little something: Q: Dan Patrick.."Larry which player in the current league could start in the Olympic 92 DREAM TEAM"? A: Larry Bird "Kobe could start for the 1992 Olympic Dream team, I love watching Kobe Bryant play". Q: Dan Patrick "Where are you going to put Michael though" A: Larry Bird "Move him to PF, Kobe can take my spot" Other stuff he said: Larry Bird: "Kobe is best in the world" He will pay to see Kobe playing, and Kobe is the closest player to Jordan in terms of Skills and talents. He respects how Kobe prepares for the games and how hard he works in the off season to improve. That right there pretty much sums up why I think Kobes head and shoulders above everybody else.

I can't disagree with Larry Legend; that in itself is just wrong. Everything he said was true indeed. Kobe is the best in the world right now. LeBron is the most 'complete' but Kobe's still got the 'crown', so, he truly is Prince James.

Bird is entitled to his opinion.

If he likes Kobe, so be it. I'm thinking he admires Kobe's athleticism and killer instinct.

But 1992 DT starter? Skillwise yes. And it depends on Kobe's age to join the DT. If it's a young Kobe, then no way. If an old Kobe, then I agree.

Kobe and Lebron are marvelous. Least well-known participant ever is Charles Barkley. he's so cocky and severe of ther gamers, yet he never gained a championship. additionally, Ron Artest, he thinks he's the main suitable defender who ever lived. He as quickly as reported jordan desires he could desire to of performed him in his best. hahahaha yet another guy is j.r. smith J.R. Smith celebrates like he in simple terms gained a championship everytime he makes a three or a dunk.

Kobe is a great player, and maybe the best player on the planet right now, but MJ will always be above him no matter what.
