Jordan and Ewing vs Kobe and Hakeem

[Gervin]

im not denying that Jordan was a great and damn well Spectacular player...but and as i said im biased, its just in my mind, I see Kobe Bryant as the better player

hey Jordanbulls, Jordan is obviously better than Kobe but do you have that stuff saved and ready to paste whenever a Jordan/Kobe comparison breaks loose?

oh btw, I don't think Kobe has the talent of Jordan. He's not as explosive, small hands, weaker, and probably slower too.

But you can't say someone is better without providing any type of argument with it. If you can't point to stats, accolades and what they have done in the playoffs, how can you be honest about the approach?

For frequent arguments I do, but things change as well so they need to be modified as well.

because this can be argued all day and it wouldnt make a difference anyway...while the only way it can really be determined is a head to head matchup/series....which unfortunately is impossible

I've always thought before the 94-95 years that Ewing was much better than Hakeem. I mean, Ewing and the Knicks were regularly battling the Bulls toe to toe in the playoffs. Except for the freak 1980's Finals appearance by the Rockets, you never heard from Hakeem from the West.
