Kobe would have three less if he hadn't played with Shaq in his Laker years. Those are Shaq's rings, not Kobe's.

That 2001 series against the Sixers Kobe was ordinary and it was Shaq who carried the team. You take Shaq off that team and Iverson gets finals MVP and tears the Lakers apart with little to no resistance.

Kobe's a good player but he's a grade a douchebag who did sweet FA in game seven this year. He showed exactly why he isn't fit to be mentioned in the same sentence as Jordan.

Cue Kobe fans:

"B-B-B-But he has 5 rings, if he gets 1 more that's as many as Jordan"
"B-B-B-But he won the Finals MVP twice"
"B-B-B-But he won an MVP"
"B-B-B-But he won a scoring title"
"B-B-B-But he's the greatest ever"
"In truth Shaq would have 3 less rings cause without Kobe Shaq never would have won a ring"
"Rape? It was settled out of court and she withdrew the charges therefore she was consenting at the time and was a gold-digger and Kobe would never do that because Kobe is so awesome and Kobe is the greatest shooting guard ever, in fact the greatest player ever"

Have I missed any?

Wasn't too long ago that it was Kobe supporters who were the desperate ones and the Kobe haters would just laugh at them.

Jordan's CV is no doubt better.

Kobe's resume holds up pretty nicely in a historical context. There was a time when I cared about the whole Kobe vs Magic or Kobe vs Jordan.

All I know is that Kobe is going to retire as one of the greats of the game, and thats pretty nice. Something that Lebron can aim for.

I reckon Kobe has to win another 3 championships to warrant a serious debate around who achieved more out of him and Jordan.

He'll should never be considered in Jordan's league as a player IMO.
