Kobe Bryant: "We'd beat the Dream Team"

[G_Thang]

No aathlete has ever had the pressure that Lebron has had to win a tile! It sttarted the day he was drafted to the Cavs! Watch what happens now that he has his title!

What pressure?

The pressure was to take Cleveland from the depths to the best the way Jordan did with Chicago.  He failed at that!  It's that plain and simple.  

So, he won a championship with an all-star team of his generation.  Shit, when Chicago was getting kicked by LA, Boston and Detroit, Jordan should have join one of those teams, so he could get his easy ring before his time.  

Even if he wins 7 rings, he didn't take a dweller to the promise land.

Oh, was it the pressure to be the first billionaire athlete, as he says?  Someone forgot to tell him Woods has been there and done that, but I guess to him Tiger isn't an athlete.

Fuck Lebron and his oddly named shoe, LB23!

Air Forever and the REAL 23!

Its reported Jordan was laughing hysterically when a reporter asked him about kobe's commnet




CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Michael Jordan says there's no way Kobe Bryant and this year's USA Olympic basketball team could've beaten the 1992 Dream Team.

Jordan told The Associated Press Thursday that he laughed, "I absolutely laughed" when hearing Bryant's comments that the squad training in Las Vegas could take Jordan and company.

Jordan says there was "no comparison" which team was better, adding that Byrant comparing the two teams "is not one of the smarter things he ever could have done."

Jordan spoke prior to a celebrity golf tournament in Charlotte.

    He says the 1992 team, which included 11 future Hall of Famers and won its six games by an average of more than 43 points en route to capturing the gold medal, may not have been as athletic but was definitely smarter.

Defensively, put Lebron on Jordan and Jordan would get shut down. I know its blasphamy and if you search you'll see I'm a Lebron hater, it's pure truth.  Lebron can play defense on anyone.

This is what would happen to Lebron if he messed with Jordan in his prime....


92 Dream Team

[The_Punisher]

just forgive Kobe....he obviously was talking out of his ass.......it's not the first time he's being delusional......he assured the lakers would win a championship last year before the lakers/dallas playoff conference series, we all know what happened. Dallas screwed them balls deep and sent Phil jackson into retirement

[mazrim]

A few things:
1. I don't know why people say Lebron can defend all positions. He can defend 3 positions at the most (which a lot of wing players can do). Whenever he gets put on a center or power forward he gets dominated in the paint and they shoot layups over him continually.

2. Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant are far, far better basketball players then he could ever dream of being. He is all power and athleticism and that's about it. Combined with his overall size that is what makes him great right now. Pure basketball skill he is good but not even close to their level. As soon as he loses a step as he gets older, he will go downhill fast as he doesn't have the skills otherwise. Put him at their height, etc. and his pure skills would quickly be shown to be lacking.

3. Also, by going to Miami and combining with 2 other top ten players (Bosh was considered top ten before but his skills are not utilized in Miami too much) he will/should never be considered the greatest of all time. The fact that they ever lose is laughable and shows that he isn't that "great". I found it quite funny how analysts were saying that he needed more help and that the supporting cast was just not enough when they were having issues. I am sorry but if you have 3 top tier players on one team you don't particularly need a "supporting cast".

Jordan>Every other basketball player.

92 Dream Team

He was somethen else forgot how far away he'd take off from the bucket and just float up there for a min

[tu_holmes]

I think with Magic being basically out... Bird being done... Jordan was still great.

Laettner? HAH!!

[BOW]

What did shaq do without Kobe or D-Wade?  EXACTLY...NOTHING....Kob e is a better leader and ball player than Shaq.  Kobe is as much as a part of those 5 rings as fat ass "Shack". Kobe is  a fucking killer, it's in his blood.  I've hated the guy for years but at this point I respect the hell out of him.

not to mention kobes been deep in the playoffs every year except once without shaq.

[King Shizzo]

I'm not arguing whether the 92 or 12 team would win.  I'm saying Lebron would nullify Jordan.

Jordan would make Lebron piss his pants.  He is clutch personified.

[NarcissisticDeity]

The thing with Jordan is he ALWAYS found a way to score , against Lebron it would be no different

If Jprdan could dunk on Ewing, he could dunk all in Lebron's grill.

[Army of One]

Stop this nonsense fella. Of couse you would pick Lebrons statistacally worse year to prove your point.
Yet this year, the year he won he average 29pts, 10 rbs, 8 assist.  A number not seen since Wilt...Hahaha...
As I've said, Jordan is still King but if you put Lebron on Jordan, Jordan's going night night.

You clearly know nothing or just have a passing interest in basketball.Lebron has been to 3 finals, in the other 2 apart from the one you mentioned, he got outscored by Jason Terry in one, and Tony Parker in the other, winning a whopping 2 games total in both games combined.His series against the Spurs in the finals in 2007 he avged 22ppg on 35% fg%   The finals last year where he averaged a whopping 17ppg he lost to a team with a worse record all while obviously having homecourt.The previous 2 years he lost with homecourt advantage, all while flaking out under the pressure, practically giving up in games.




Jordan is 6 for 6 in his finals appearances, Jordan NEVER lost to a team with Homecourt advantage, meaning he never lost to a team with equal or worse record than his.Jordan was also never outscored in a playoff series by any player on his own team or the other.

Jordan has already retired, so his later years where his ppg went down some factor in to the ppg, he still has a whopping 33.45ppg avg for the playoffs, leading all time.
Lebron, whose PPG will evidently go down for the playoffs as he gets older, his avg 28.48 per game.

Will be interesting to see what Kobe does after basketball. Because everyone who's ever met him says he has the mind of a teenager. And is hated by most. Where as Jordan might not have been liked by most, but was respected and feared in many ways.

I know much more about basketball than you, I guarentee...Hop of Jordan's nuts and come back to reality.

Larry Bird on whether current Olympic team could beat Dream Team: "They probably could. I haven't played in 20 years and we're all old now."

1992 Dream team

Johnson, Magic - king of assist and shots
Barkley, Charles - bully on the court...would knock kobe's teeth out will hitting shots
Mullin, Chris - shoot and run all over the place
Stockton, John - best passer around
Malone, Karl - bully on the court...devasting rebounding
Drexler, Clyde  -  Glide accross the court and slam it down
Jordan, Michael - end game
Pippen, Scottie - end games sidekick
Bird, Larry - Would have shot 3 pointers all accross the place...would have also smacked some guys around
Ewing, Patrick - all around rebound and layoffs
Robinson, David - Kobe would have found out about the Neighborhood.


Kobe needs to wake up and realize that they would have gotten killed.....not to mention that they played a lot rougher back then

[Bevo]

Fuck Jordan!!

He's so off about them being old. Jordan was in his fucking prime! Barkley too. Kobe is the one past his prime, he's 36 I think. Jordan was maybe 28? Bird and Magic were the older guard on that team but were still a hell of a lot tougher and smarter than anyone on the current team.

I think pretty much the only one "old guy" on the sideline getting his back iced down during that time was Larry Bird but damn, if you look at the highlights even that guy was cashing pull up 3's during 2 on 1 fast breaks... had to of been absolutely demoralizing for the other team seeing those types of plays being made. That team was the best of all time and it's hard to see it being duplicated any time in the foreseeable future. 11 Hall of Famers on one squad is just unreal.
