<div class="quote_poster">Quoting AIRTIGHT:</div><div class="quote_post">hahaha We gonna go thru this again? Yall get shut out on the offical threads where we talk about that topic, but rather than admit defeat you come on to a different thread and try to slip in a quick plug. haha in denial?? The next Kobe?? Wade and Lebron in their 3rd year are already better than Kobe-- what are you referring to ? <u> You convince us how they're not.</u>. Kobe has 3 championships? He also played with Shaq for 8 years in his prime opposed to Dwyane Wade for 2 in his declining years. The next Jordan? The next Kobe? .. Here's Kobe at a slow crawl on a pace to need around 20 years just to break even with Jordan's 11 year Bull's numbers let alone his impact; and you're telling us that Wade and Lebron need to focus on being the next Kobe right? -- So they must be at a way slower career pace them Kobe himself?? Forget about Wade winning the ship and Finals' MVP in his 3rd year, and Lebron setting records and having an all around game Kobe will never have. huh forget all that stuff--- they'll probably need at least 15 years to come even close to catching up to Kobe; and thats being lucky huh Rock?</div> First off, noone has ever shut me down. I always come back harder Why even argue this, Lebron HIMSELF said Kobe is the best and everybody tries to aim to surpass him. That's enuff proof to put you to rest right there. Lebron & Wade have squeeky clean images unlike Kobe. They have better personalities and are better with the media. Kobe is arrogant & cocky, but that's just who he is, he has every right to be. He's outplayed Wade in almost every match up they've had, and he not only outplayed Lebron but hit the gamewinner in Lebrons face this year. Bottomline, KOBE IS THE BEST UNTIL SOMEBODY SURPASSES HIM TALENTWISE, END OF DISCUSSION

Wilt was a known "stats collector", I wasn't the first to mention this.
