Barring catastrophe, Kobe Bryant will reach 5000 assists this season.
He already has more than 5k rebounds to go with 25k+ points.

How many players have accomplished this triple feat?

Jerry West
John Havlicek
Oscar Robertson
Karl Malone
Michael Jordan
Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

Joining Great Company.

According to realgm he's overrated and even to some on this board :lol:

when he gets his 6th ring he will be in the top 5 no doubt

There will always be naysayers who refuse to give Kobe his due for whatever reason. Lakers fans may be biased at times, but there is no way to deny Bryant's greatness.

And it's still odd to see him wearing #8.

NBA fans want there player to be the player Kobe is. So if they do not get it. Then they hate Kobe. I would say about 70 percent of all fans respect Kobe in some manner. For what he has done for the NBA and basketball world wide. The other small percentage are just in someother place that is not a reality.

Nice OP

Kobe can get all the hate he wants,

hate is his drive and hate is flattering to him 8-)

Exactly some people may not realize that all the hating they give to Kobe is actually love. They just "love" to hate Kobe. So let them do it because he loves it.

The difference from Bryant and outher players in the NBA is that they are not as DRIVEN as he is. He feels that there is always a way to overcome anything, that is what I love about him. Not to start any fights but I don't see that in Wade, James, Bosh, or Anthony. Paul, Williams, Roy, Durant, Westbrook, Granger, Rondo, Noah, Rose, Love, Beasley (2010 version), Lopez, and Dragić.

I see something special in those players as for James, Wade, Bosh, and Anthony they have alot to prove sure they have the talent but they don't have the will power....

^ Not sure if serious. :-?

Amazing accomplishment by Bryant, he has kept up a high level of play for a very long time now and its very impressive.

Kobe will retire with 30k+ 7k+ 6k and hopefully with two more titles...

then its gonna be funny to see his haters mad everytime Kobe is mentioned in the top5 of all time...

4,922 Assists.

Kobe dishes out 78 more assists this season he gets in.

He'll get it easily. If he stays within the offense he'll get even faster.

The only person missing from that list is Magic. Can we even imagine where he would've ended up had his career been shortened?

Magic had no issues putting points on the board.
It's just 25,000 points is a lot of baskets.

Nonetheless Magic dropped 17,000 points, over 10,000 assists, and 6,000 boards.

Magic would have been the only member in the 25, 10, & 8 club
