Too funny but the analogy is spot on! hahaha

[@Mohamed-ye5do]

Nick Wright just said the Spurs 2nd best player in 2008 was Michael Finley, when Manu and Parker were still in their primes. That is utterly ridiculous. That Spurs team just won the title the year before, where they SWEPT Lebron and he had a historically bad series. Kobe's 2 best players, Gasol and Odom, combined less PPG than Kobe did that series (Kobe averaged 29-6-4 on 53%, Gasol and Odom averaged 26 on 42% combined), so don’t give me the “Kobe had more help” argument. The lengths this guy goes to discredit Kobe is absurd.

You also forgot to mention the year Kobe beat Boston he played with a broken finger and ruptured Achilles. Dude was limping the entire game and still Giving Allen and pierce work

[@Mohamed-ye5do]

Downplaying Kobe’s role during the 3-peat with Shaq is like downplaying Steph Curry’s role with the Warriors because Kevin Durant won Finals MVP both years. It’s ridiculous and it’s pure revisionist history by Nick Wright.

But without Durant and Shaq those teams dont win...if you replaced Lillard for Curry and Kobe for TMAC.......Lakers and Warriors still win coz of those main guys

[@vanishing_girl]

The fact that Nick gives LBJ so much credit for beating the Celtics when KG was 35, Pierce was 34, and Ray was 36 yet says the only reason MJ beat The Pistons was they were old even though Isiah was 29 and was the starting PG on the East All-Star team and had won the FMVP less than a year before, Rodman was 29 and the DPOY, and Dumars was 27 had already won a FMVP made the all-star team and had the highest PER of his career, is just laughable. Yet he has the nerve to call Kobe intellectually dishonest. Kobe also didn't get to play LBJ in the finals because LBJ lost to the Magic and Celtics in 6 respectively, both teams Kobe beat in the finals.

He is jealous because the man is better than him. An argument can be made that Kobe got carried in every finals appearance. No one can make that argument for Lebron's Case.

[@jaylee8429]

GuillieDaShogun that's not true at all. If anything history shows us Kobe was cheated out of accomplishments and rings.

[@ExilixE]

I love how people bring up the 2000 finals where Kobe averaged 16 but forget Jalen Rose purposely injured Kobe and hindered his performance throughout the finals and dramatically decreased his averages. And forget game 7 in the WCF against the 59-23 Blazers where he sealed the deal in the clutch with 25 points while his buddy Shaq got 18 points, without him they wouldn't have gotten to the Finals OR Closed out Game 3 in OT of the Finals with a bum ankle when Shaq fouled out to give them a 3-0 lead. Lebron's competition Brandon Jennings led 38-44 (2013)Bucks? LMAO 43-39 (2014)Bobcats 41-41 (2010)Bulls 40-42 (2015)Celtics 41-41 (2011)76ers teams who had no scorers average over 15 points? please.. 41-41 Nets team with 34-yr old Jason Kidd 41-41 Wizards.

Please tell me his competition was underrated compared to Kobe, PLEASE.. Most .500 teams or worse faced in the playoffs. Lebron. About 9 or so Kobe faced = 0 (ZERO) Kobe - 55-27 (2001)Kings, 61-21 (2002)Kings (Webber in his prime) 59-23 (2000)Trail Blazers 58-24 (2004)Timberwolves 58-24 (2001-2002) Spurs.

[@tonyc1393]

Take em to church with these stats! PREACH! Kobe giving it to the dominant west his whole career. Lebron is a great player, but I love how people forget the East is a joke compared to the West. Your competition plays a factor in your stats. Nobody wants to admit that Kobe carried the Lakers to a lot of wins in those playoff games. A lot of those games Shaq was in foul trouble or fouled out. Kobe was never a side or a role player. Kobe dropped 40 + pts for 9 games straight with Shaq on the team. Name me another "side kick" that has done that??!?! I've got the rest of my life to wait for the answer.

Robert Harrison so wait Kobe was trying to tell LeBron to change his game cause it’s not working. At this rate he will have the most final losses. It’s so dumb to talk LeBron in goat discussion when he is still playing. Look Nick has issue with Kobe for some reason. He played in the nba for 20 years and is a 5 time champ and has credibility to talk about what a nba player should do. I hate that everyone skips over Kobe when talking about best players in the league history. He was pretty unstoppable scorer and one or if not the best mid range shooter ever and clutch. LeBron at end of his career will probably be a top 2 or 3 player but he’s not going to be goat far as I’m concerned.

Kobe Bryant retirement game is the same as lebron career high

[@PS5Akatsuki]

TrillTandon Kobe didn’t score 80 in a blowout either. He scored 80 meaningful points while the result of the game was still on the line. There’s a big difference between that and Devin Booker going after when being down by thirty. And that’s no disrespect to Devin because it’s still remarkable, just not the same as what Kobe did.

Classic 👍

[@ercushkakulmetov7458]

Nick is the only one using stats and numbers to back up his argument, all others and seem to hate on Lebrun for no reason.

[@oskaveli662]

Why is LeBron different than Kobe? Because LeBron ONLY cares about his stats and the perception of him being GOAT. Kobe cared about Championships just like every other super star before him. If Kobe or Jordan wanted to focus on only stats they would have better stats than LeBron, simple as that. Jordan>Kareem>Bird>Magic>Kobe>LeBron

[@willkhamalahsni143]

oskaveli662 false kobe blew a 3-1 lead solely based on stats

[@hitman321100]

@@willkhamalahsni143 They lost the 2004 Finals because Kobe cared about his numbers.

[@rata_laadat]

I really think media Blowing his comments about Lebron out proportion Its as simple as Lebron Get you more rings by any means necessary bro not hate not jeleolsy

[@MicroFiberOnly]

Nick man, i wonder what year you started watching basketball

[@moha9559]

in 2010 he said KD>Lebron but i guess since the warriors started wining he jumped on the Lebron bandwagon

[@jdmnsxr6820]

MicroFiber Only 2011 probably or 2012

[@MicroFiberOnly]

When he said he didn't watch basketball in the 90s... it explained it all, that's why he's so stat crazy, because he can't reference these stats to seeing the actual game

[@moha9559]

MicroFiber Only He dared to say What does bird do better than Lebron.......He looks at stats and thinks lebron is a better 3 point shooter

[@MicroFiberOnly]

Maxamad Cabdi Xasan i remembered that i cringed so hard at that lol

[@CMxBlackJesus]

This guys are RIDICULOUS! LeBron ran Kyrie outta town. K Love and Ty Lue come out mid-season saying that having high levels of stress and mental issues but LeBron is an excellent teammate. You can't use D-Wade as a reference for LeBron's "excellence" of course Wade wouldn't throw his best friend under the bus. These LeBron nut-huggers are swarming all sports analytic shows and it's ridiculous.

[@Knowledgeisthekey1st]

Nick whining about Kobe's comment, "but nobody was talking about him"😭😭😭 "why is he talking"😭 😭 "I want to talk about Lebron, I love him"😢😢😢 "Tell Kobe to shut up, he jealous of Lebron." 😂😂😂😂😂

[@zirconiumarthiritis7409]

Its Mamba Mentality vs LeGlassJaw Why would 5-2 be jealous of 3-6 I think what Kobe is really saying is stop skipping over me when you compare LBJ to Mike.

[@michaeljordanhisairness3872]

Zirconium Arthiritis Pippen 6-0 > Kobe 5-2

[@zirconiumarthiritis7409]

I never mentioned Pippen. So whats your point? You mental bruh? Its Mamba Mentality vs LeGlassJaw Why would 5-2 be jealous of 3-6 I think what Kobe is really saying is stop skipping over me when you compare LBJ to Mike.

[@champ2290]

Zirconium Arthiritis LeBron has been the best player on on 3 championship teams Kobe just 2. LeBron averages more pts assists rebounds and has been more efficient than Kobe both in the regular season and post season he has passed him in almost every statistical category up to this point. I'm sorry Kobe fans its not close anymore.

[@zirconiumarthiritis7409]

SOME FOLKS PLAY FOR STATS SOME PLAY FOR CHIPS WHEN GREAT PLAYERS ARE CLOSE IN STATS WHAT SEPARATES THEM? CHIPS.........

[@champ2290]

the fact is lebron has been the clear best player on 3 championship teams and kobe just 2. And when you look at numbers and efficiency its really not close anymore

[@ngu30]

I hate talking sports with people that are fans of someone and can't be objective. Nick Wright is a fan of LeBron. Nothing that comes out of his mouth is objective about Bron so I always tune him out in these topics. Now if CC says something i fully listen because not only has he played sports, most importantly hes objective and not trying to win an argument like Nick. You can't convince someone trying to win much.

[@jt9172]

[@CMxBlackJesus]

Everyone talks about Kobe blowing a 3-1 lead to the Suns but the Suns were the 2nd seed the overwhelming favorite and the same fact LeBron gets praised for "leading an underperforming team as far as they can possibly go" Kobe gets killed for because they were up 3-1 and it was the 1st round, but if Lebron was a 7th seed in the West who thinks he's carrying that Cavs team past Golden State or Houston? To the finals?

[@Selektur]

fact is that if bron blew a 3-1 lead, haters would never let down the choke. But kobe gets a pass? why?

[@CMxBlackJesus]

Selektur his team was already inferior? The same way LeBron gets a pass for 2015 despite being up 2-1.

[@champ2290]

Black Jesus Kobe quit in game 7 that's facts

[@Selektur]

right, so I don't really see how Lebron going 3-6 in the finals is a knock against him when his team was clearly inferior those series barring 2011 and 2014(debatable).

[@JaceGod]

Kobe is better than LeCHOKE. Period. Cry Bronsexuals. LMFAO

[@nigeljalandra7585]

Downplaying the fact that Kobe was the BEST player in those 2001-2004 battles against the spurs when everyone considered the WCF as the true finals. Check the numbers. Kobe was averaging 30PPG against arguably the best defense of that era. But we're gonna ignore that because he had Shaq?

[@MicMucique2]

Kobe is jealous of a guy who loses all the time. That make sense

[@chrisrenshaw8529]

How is Kobe jealous he has more rings

[@pauloaustria7798]

Chris Renshaw Google Shaq

[@smoothgent1011]

[@bobdoerr9536]

Kobe took care of what MVP LeBron couldn't. I think if Kobes 3 rings with shaq don't count, then LeBrons two with super team miami shouldn't either.

[@crunchypunchfn7880]

Nick is SO passionate about this lol. It’s all subjective. It’s funny how he blames Kobe for not meeting Lebron in the finals. When in Fact the year Nike was doing the Kobe Lebron puppet campaign. It was Lebron that lost to the Dwight Howard Magic team in the conference finals. Kobe would go on to beat that same Magic team in the finals. It’s funny how Nick left that out lol

[@rogermyles606]

I know. Lebron lost to the Celtics the following year and ran him out of Cleveland and Kobe went to beat that same Celtics team in 7 games

[@dariusmaye]

They obviously got some good ratings yesterday on this Kobe topic. Nick going in on Kobe got them some views.

[@brandondoyle9573]

Doug was 100% right on this one. Nick is incapable of being objective when it comes to LeBron.

[@sbwan]

Brandon Doyle You do realize Doug said the same thing Nick said right? Doug said "Kobe is not on MJs level" Kobe is top ten NOT top 3 or 4. Kobe not in GOAT debate LeBron is.

[@davidecroce2106]

Man stop hating on Kobe!!!! Just appreciate greatness and enjoy both Kobe and Lbj..both winners but they always try ti rip Kobe Just to elevate Lbj...JUST APPRECIATE GREATNESS..you can make your case even when you don't disrespect someone else

[@cortneygee5031]

Is Nick Wrong serious ??!! It was Lebron that didn’t hold up his end of the deal in 09’ & 10’ !! Killer instinct and Killer will are intangibles in basketball that are vital after “witnessing” Lebron for 15 years the reality is that he’s not on Kobe or MJ level when it comes to those intangibles . FOH #NickWrong

[@cmajor1487]

Cortney Gee Preach it!

[@supersaiyancabby2889]

If Nick knows anything hed know kobe didn't push Shaq out it was Jim buss not him 2nd the main issue btwn Shaq an kobe was that kobe was constantly working always in the gym no matter if it was the offseason or not that's why they initially had issues cause kobe wanted Shaq to keep working as hard as him after the 1st ring

[@julienflores6504]

Super saiyan Cabby28 yea I agree and Shaq was getting all the credit for being the leader or whatever while Kobe was doing the labor

[@willkhamalahsni143]

False the reason shaq left wasbecause kobe snitched and was simply a bad teammate I dont know where you get the lie that it was because kobe was a "workaholic" that made shaq leave because so is wade and second off phil even said when kobe was asked to do workouts he would say "Nah I'll do it in a minute"

[@JoeGuerra-g2d]

Nick said nobody cares about Kobe's 5 rings 😂😂 But who cares about LeBron's 4 rings. Especially the 2 he won in Miami. Then he said why didn't Kobe win 4 rings with Shaq.... But LeBron should have won all 4 seasons in Miami!!!!!!

[@Follayart1]

Kobe's 5 came from the tough West. LeBron's 3 came from the weak East but Kobe's jealous? Ok

[@jamesxiong5516]

When is Nick having Lebron's baby already? Even the best player of this era has flaws. Jordan had flaws as well. 2 mins left with curry guarding, I'd take my chances with Kobe any day.

[@pkacc1]

Nick Wright has lost all credibility in the NBA world

[@tfizzle56]

Why would 5 be jealous of 3 😭😭

[@jj10176]

tfizzle56 because the person who has 5 has less fmvp then the guy who has 3, going by your logic Derek fisher is better than bird because bird has 3 and fisher has 5.

[@adrainwilliams6785]

tfizzle56 because even tho he has 5 rings, the debate I’ve heard for the last 3 years has been MJ vs LeBron for greatest of all time and not MJ vs Kobe..

[@tfizzle56]

Adrain Williams is Kobe Bryant a role player idiot ? Going by ur logic tony n ginobili is better than bron

[@adrainwilliams6785]

tfizzle56 lol I haven’t given my logic yet. I just stated the facts. But if we going to name call, then please articulate to me how I’m an idiot for stating Kobe hasn’t been in the GOAT conversation the last few years and where your getting Kobe is a role player??? But if you want to go there... Kobe HAS been a role player on at least one of his championships...Lebron has NEVER been a role player on any of his championships..

[@tfizzle56]

Adrain Williams bruhh that wasnt for u that was for the jj guy n kobe n shaq carried each other shaq wouldn’t have won without kobe n kobe wouldn’t have won without shaq my other comment was for u 😭😭😭 mr narratives

[@ArmandoKozomara]

Did Nick Wrong just say Kobe is the third greatest shooting guard behind Jordan AND WEST?? Literally no gas West over Kobe. And even Magic himself has called Kobe the greatest Laker ever. And obviously Kobe wants to be the main guy on championship teams…JUST LIKE LEBRON.

[@raheemedwards4072]

He really just said Kobe tried to be like Jordan and lebron literally has the same number as jordan

[@TrillHighlights]

Kobe said the exact same quote in his Spike Lee Documentary Doin Work in 2008 a time which he was at his prime mentally so why is Nick taking it totally outta context. Kobe just giving advice simple.
