In game, for power...yes.
For artistic elegance...Kobe's in-game dunk package is in a different universe.
I agree with you jb
Anthony has an entire career of aerial devastation ahead of him though...I want him. Trade the entire Lakers roster right now for him, twice _________________ http://chickhearn.ytmnd.com/
I hate to follow the sudden hype, but at first when I read the Jordan comps I was like come on, then I began to watch closely and I do in fact see the similarities. Dude's only 22, already has a 3 point shot and holds the ball as if it's a small toy. He's able to slash and get into the basket with ease. He's legit.
The real thing will be whether he as the IQ the greats have. That often seperates the T-Mac's and Vince Carter's from the Kobe's.

I thought he was overrated as a baller (dunks aside) based on the hype. I caught some of Minnesota's games and I did a complete 180. I'm seeing what guys like Chuck/Shaq are seeing when they compare him to Mike/MJ. Obviously I'm not saying he's as good but what I mean is he always the quickest, sharpest guy on the floor. Loose balls and he's right on it. Open lane and he's looking to murder someone. He has a hand print on every other play on both sides of the ball. He's always in your face in attack mode.
Defensively that squad has a chance to be one of the best. Gobert. Mcdaniels. Reid. Edwards. 4 guys that play substantial minutes that are great to absolute elite defenders.
Having said that, he should sign with the us. His personality is too big to be shackled up in mf'en Minnesota. _________________ KOBE

I like him as a player. He complains too much. He never fouls and is always being fouled. He reminds me of Bron complains on every play. _________________ Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.
