Kobe #8: More athletic, and had more iconic moments Kobe #24: More tricky to guard, well-rounded and pretty much unguardable because he has so many tricks and moves up his sleeve.

I think u meant rip Kobe

24 was ice cold, but 8 was a pure savage.

[@email123123ful]

easy its 24... 8 is the more flashy more explosive and straight killer type player... but 24 is smarter, wiser, and polished player.. not to mention the 24 is the MVP and a proven winner.... because the no. 8 is often criticized for just being carried by shaq...

[@christianmetcalf8316]

Kaylen Scott tbh thank you for recognizing that

[@stkthefirst3463]

You forgotten that 81 point game

[@Mcmildew]

It was amazing watching his final game, seeing the difference in athleticism from his prime to that game, wide open lanes early in the game and he couldnt even dunk, and towards the games end barely moving up the court. But watching him fall back on his 20 years of professional experience, relying on his form, and trusting his judgement and just out thinking and out playing the jazz with smart plays, it was incredible, greatest performance from any player.

[@harshvirbhathal2855]

Who’s watching after he died😭😭

[@Wavy_Godd96]

Me, 8 was so raw man

[@aa-ronm.paskell8843]

[@dusankrstic556]

He was a pleasure to watch, man i miss him

[@Tony-xe7rr]

Overall id say kobe had his best defensive seasons plus people were taking about how he was the best player in the world while wearing #8 whereas he was more matured and focused on team ball while wearing #24. So I give it to number 8

[@jsweezy1314]

Lewis Bennett the leagues just gotten easier to score in with those weak ass big men trying to guard the paint. offense isnt better, ew generations just arent taught as well on the defensive side. kobes body couldnt handle an entire nba season anymore yet he pushed himself on his last game and scored 60. that was 37 year old way past prime kobe who could barely dunk anymore. imagine what any other kobe would do to teams these days.
