Those actually were identical. Nice work! Kobe does a good MJ impression. The greats are always originals, jordan, magic, bird, shaq, Lebron, etc. But for a guy who modeled his play type and career for that matter after another player, Kobe did a damn good job and has had a great career. It'll be fun watching him this year, now that he has alotta help, and is now mature enough not to need to hog, the ball or attention of LA, he will be able to cruz this year, and should have a real good shooting percentage.
ReplyDeleteOk lebron dont copy kobes moves and mj's? this fucking guy!^ watch lebrons first 8 years and tell me the real reason why he had no rings. I can...because he was waisting time shooting fall away jumpers n the 4th like kobe and mj! But he was lebricken that shit! And scared to shoot free throws. Now this past year he played how lebron should play and finally got it a ring. Why? Because the bitch found his own game! Not kobes or mj's or d wades...who is another biter of mj's and kobes moves also but I didnt c cole mention wade did he? And kobe might b imporsonating mj but hell hes still the second best sg to ever play so at wat point do u say hes not acting and call it for wat it is...his game!
DeleteOk I commented b4 watching the video. That was sum beautiful shit! Thank u ball comish. This video backs up my point that kobe is the only person close to mj rite now. Yes very similar n style of play and mentality on the court. I dont c shit wrong with it, I mean who n the nba today doesnt have a fade away jump shot cole? They all stole sumthin from mj...fuckin clowns act like lebron was the first to do it. Aint nuthin original about that dude besides them 2 big ass headbands to hide that hairline.
DeleteEvery one model part of there game after someone. now kobe is kobe jordan is jordan yes jordan stole moves from dr j domineq. keny skywalker so on and so forth. cant deney kobe of anything he has acheived in this game good or bad. lebron is not in kobe or jordan coversation he just began to put his team on his back lebron 80lbs heavier than both of then put him with barkley malone with magic handles he is the new breed of a player.(what were they feeding him anyway.)????? Would jordan still be as revalent with out the sneaker...thats what keeps him on top not just the game...just one to grow on...as the new era say church preach....lol you gotta love the game.
DeleteIm wit u everybody modeled there game after somebody else or took sumthin from somebody elses game lebron included. Its funny how all these lebron fans or apologist love to take shots at kobe but none of them bring up the '08 olympics where guys like melo, wade, and lebron admitted they learned alot from kobe. I can understand if u dont like a player because I will never b a lebron fan but I will give credit when credit is due.
DeleteYo preach don't get so defensive, you act like you kobes mom. Haha, Cole said nothing bad and is right for the most part.

Nah that was cole on sum bs talkin lebron is original and kobe is not??? He just tried to back off n talkin bout next season And hes sayin shit that he had argued against b4. Hes a fuckin hypocrite
DeleteApparently the first guy didn't mj said himself he gets his game from dr j and his old coach was doug collins who played with dr j....so did kobe said he got his game from dr j which joe bryant played with dr j...watch some dr j clips before you speak on something you know nothing about
DeleteJLEW
Preach why u got to curse so much! Anyway for once i agree with u about kobe, he is the second best player after mj, jordan did stole the free throw dunk from dr j,lol, but kobes game and style is so identical to jordans game, but jordans fadeaway was unique, idk why people are bringing lebron in to this he has no reasemblence to kobe or mj, if kobe wouldnt got traded and he gave the hornets 6 rings then ill say they were equal, but thats the edge i give jordan, he took a team from nowhere and made them 6 times champs, maybe 8 if he wasnt out playing baseball.
ReplyDeleteJay-
My bad. But jay u got ya melo jersey yet? Lol
DeleteI actually do! Im really a magic fan since 92 but i alway rooted for knicks and now nets since im from NY. ! Like i said hes good but i feel durant is better, but i am not taking everything from melo, hes an all star and a gold winner olympian, if he can at least take ny to the conference finals ill b happy
DeleteJay-
Lol r u serious ! Jordan couldn't do shit with the bulls either until they started adding talented back up to his game.
DeleteLakers fan
Kobe has been to the dance 7 times. can we put A I in this coversation because he has been lost because of other stuff but his game is equal to both if them...and never had a pippen,grant or shaq,Gasal scoring was better than kobe and on pace to catch jordan or knock out shaq to be in the top 5 all time wich kobe hold at the present time......just a thought
ReplyDeleteIm a knicks fan n grew up hating mj. Once he retired for good I realized how much I missed watching him play. So I told myself despite my feelings for my team I wud appreciate greatness. Im not a kobe fan by I can't deny his greatness. When his games r on im watching. When it comes to Lebron im sorry he just doesn't do it for me. He's a great player but I don't get the same thrill as I do watching kobe n mj. Maybe one day he will. Just not now. N cats Shud know there are no ideas that are original. N y not patent ur game after the greatest. U can't tell me u weren't out there as a kid tryna fade away like jordan. Reverse layup like dr j. No look pass like magic.
ReplyDeleteNU right nobodys game is completely original but i can see what dude saying about kobe stealing every single one of mikes moves all the way down to the tongue hanging out...i mean really?? The tongue too?? But at the same time tou cant take nothing away from.kobe and what he has accomplished he is one of the greatest but i think dudes argument about lebron is that u cant name one player that he plays identical to i think he took a litgle here little there from different people and has made it his own. But i can see where people say/eveeyone says jordan #1 of course he is the best to ever play the game kobe #2 its arguable but really anything after jordan is arguable...but i still stand on my beleif that lebron is the best all around player the game has seen and most people get beside themselves wen they hear that but its true thats y its so many people that say u cant compare him to mj bc its different styles jordan is a scorer kobe a scorer lebron all around pipen all around magic all around wade scorer durant scorer melo scorer....etc etc..

If it aint broke y fix it. Y not emulate the moves that drove n entire league crazy for a decade. Moves that no one stopped or slowed down. Kobe is just a smart player. This is why he worked with olajawan. Bc no one cud stop the dream. Now u see everyone working with him. U see kobe trying to get dirks unorthodox fade away jumpshot bc no one can stop it. . N ur right brons game is unique now. That's bc he's a straight brute. We've never seen someone with his size speed n strength before. Before this year he tried to play like the others. He's not a jumpshooter he's not a guy who can play with his back to the basket on a consistent basis. Not saying he cant b. Cats get all crazy when I say he's not offensively gifted as the durants n kobes. But its true. He can't do what they do consistently on a high level. At the same time they can't do what he does either in terms of attacking the rim. This is y they won. He decided to b himself. Instead of shooting js he drove to the hole. He barely shot the ball from outside the paint. That's his game n he does it better then most. N its hard to compare mj n bron. The game was alot tougher then. N bron is physically blessed. I can't imagine what mj wud have done with his skill set n brons built.
DeleteN I can't imagine what bron cud do if he had the offensive skill set of the mjs kobes n darants. Don't think anyone in the league wants to see that.
DeleteI cant say that lebron is lacking when it comes to offensive skill set because where he lacks in perimeteer shooting he makes up with court vision and passing which is a part of the offensive skill set that some of the players u named fall short or are lacking what i think u mean is he lacks in outside scoring ability buti think its more like every player jus has theyre stregnths and weaknesses and in the end it balances out..lebron is not a very good shooter once u get outside of the elbow area but from the elbow down hes one of the best in the league great court vision n passing ability lacks that ummph factor often passes too much and has chosen to shoot rather than drive at the end of games he makes teammates better..durant is 6'10 with no post game but hes a sharpshooter any where on the court. Debatable handles n questionable defense doesnt make teammates better but keeps them involved in the game...kobe great defender hes clutch good shooter been known to be a ball hog forces shots at times rather than passing doesnt make teammates better but demands perfection and he can give it to u from anywhere on the floor and oh yea hes clutch too..melo most complete offensive player prolly could win a championship if bball was a one on one sport..needs to get teammates in volved in the game and questionable d.in the end agree or disagree all players have theyre stregnths n weaknesses.
DeleteClint
Offensive skill to me is the ability to score in different fashions. Creativity n handle. the ability to get anywhere on the court to get thier shot. Court vision n passing r other attributes that have nothing to do with it. So yes Lebron lacks the offensive skill set that kobe Durant melo have. Its ok to say. Doesn't make him any less of a player
DeleteI wonder who was the first one to make a no look pass, was it pistol pete?
ReplyDeleteJay-
Thats a good question jay idk who was the first but i think magic took it to another level
ReplyDeleteClint
Probably was pistol. And he said he got his fancy, show boating style of play from going to watch small black high school teams play when he was a kid. Probably sum kids we have never heard of....like earl manigult the original GOAT. So no nobody is original these days.
DeleteI was looking at the video again and kobe looks like a mj clone, but not his reveres, jordans reverse layups where crazy, now i wonder witch one has more hops! ?
ReplyDeleteJay-
I think Jordan was quicker n could jump higher kobe has a better outside shot (3) n a lil more craftier but he has to be to make up for the athletic difference.... some will say jordan was craftier but half the shit jordan did he didnt have ro do it just to be able to get his shot off cause he jus jumped over everybody n did it thats not being crafty thats showmanship thats that wow factor that seperates him from his peers.
ReplyDeleteClint
Like that move he did against the lakers in the finals, the one he goes up to dunk it but he reversed it to his left... That was crafty showmanship lol....
ReplyDeleteJay-
Everyone notice how this aint about lebron an people still bring him up,,how can u say he better than jordan or kobe wen he berly has one ring,,hes not even the end of his career an people sayin he the best,,he a just in his prine thats it,,,the video shows how kobe is the best 2nd player to ever play,,wen lebron is at the end of his career(just like kobe now) then I wanna see an exact video but of all these three players,,then ill change my opinion,,but till then bron is not close to these two at all,,so quit suckin his dick bandwagons..
ReplyDeleteDam them preach teammates go hard like cheerleader bitches
ReplyDeleteFoo ur lebrons bitch cheerleader,always suckin his dick,,u should be the last one to talk wen it comes to cheer an bitch
DeleteSo you just proved my point! You protecting your bitch preach. You funny dude.

ReplyDeleteThe only other difference between kobe and mj is that back when mj was playing the league was so much different, it was fisical and u could hand check a guy, idk how kobe would of performed in that type of enviroment, shit back then u could of taunt and get in eachothers face, now u look at a player wrong u get a tec quick. But kobe still the second best to me
