as good as kobe is, JORDAN is a game changer. he revolutionized the game. i grew up saying 'i wanna be like mike' not i wanna be like 'bryant' and plus, jordan's shoes look better and i own more MJ's sneakers than kobes.
MJ was marketed very well that's why people were blind to say they wanted to be like MJ. Of course most didn't know how or why he got to where he was.
As for revolutionizin
g or game changing, Wilt Chamberlain and Shaquille O'Neal did that. 5 second ruled and zone defense were created because of these guys. Wilt scored 100 himself and he was a center.
"I wanna be like Mike", "Just Do It" all part of marketing but of course no one pays attention his gambling or how he interacts with people.
MJ greatest player of all-time. He solidified his Spot after he retired in 98.
Kobe is the next G.O.A.T. and his career isn't even over yet. Kobe could win the next 5 championships and people still wouldn't give it to him.
Wilt Chamberlain gets more props than his rival Bill Russell even tho Russell has 8 straight championships.
