Kobe Bryant Vs. Michael Jordan

Who is the better NBA player Kobe Bryant or Micheal Jordan? The question is hard to answer since both players didn't compete against one another in the prime of their playing career. This answer of opinions can be arugued strongly both ways. Micheal Jordan is the pioneer of the new generation of basketball. His creative dunks and his wicked fade-away jump shots made him the MAN!!! in the late 80's and early 90's. However, this is a new age of basketball with the highest competition and skill level ever seen in the NBA. The NBA has some of greatest athelets and skilled players to ever play in the NBA, such as: Kevin Garnett, Allen Iverson, LeBron James, Dwayne Wade, T-Mac, or Tim Duncan. These players are great NBA players who give thier all, but Kobe Bryant has separated himself from the greats today. Kobe is the most feared NBA scorer in the league today and maybe of all time. I've watched Kobe make 9 straight three point shots to tie the consecutive three point shots made record and then he hit 3 more to break the record of most three point shots in a game. In his career, Kobe has

• 23- 50 point games
• 92- 40 point games
• Consecutive games of 50 points or more: 4
• Consecutive games of 40 points or more: 9
• Most points in a Season: 2,832 points (2005-2006)

Kobe also has a the second most points every scored in a game by a single player, which was 81 points. This record is more impressive than Wilt Chamberlain's 100 points because the rules were different back then. Players were allowed to grab the ball off the rims, and since Wilt Chamberlain was the only 7 footer he dominated the games. Kobe's 81 was done in the modern NBA which is extremely difficult especially at the shooting guard position.
In my opinion, Kobe is the best player to ever play in the NBA. His career is not over and he is already in my opinion the best to play.
