Kobe is about to pass Jordan on both the all-time regular season and all-time post season scoring lists. He's already passed him in the all-time all-star game scoring list.

When his career is done, Kobe will be considered the greatest scorer of all time.


Scoring more points doesn't mean you're a better scorer.

As of the end of this year (all these numbers are just quick estimates...can get exact if needed), KB has played 90 more games & 1300 more minutes than MJ. He has taken 70 more FT's & 2,700 more 3P's, while making 80 more FT's & 900 more 3P's than Mike. On the flip side, he's made 1,900 less shots, taken 1,800 less shots, while scoring a little under 3,000 less points.

So Kobe has relied much more on the 3 than Jordan, yet in more games and minutes, still has yet to reach/pass him in points scored. Oh, and that's with MJ missing almost 2 full seasons (1 injury, 1 back from retirement/suspension), missing another entire year in the middle of him becoming [Morpheus] The One [/Morpheus] True Basketball Jesus (R/S), and playing a more reduced role in his WSH years.

I hate getting into this argument, cause no matter what is said, you Kobe stans will never admit that he's inferior to anyone, yet there is no basketball player that will ever eclipse Jordan.

Kobe is an all time great. He'll go down as the 2nd best 2 guard ever, and arguably 2nd best guard (depending on how one feels about Magic) ever. That's not, nor should it be, up for debate. For some reason, that's just not enough for you guys. Re-read what I just typed, and explain to me why that's not enough for you? Y'all must see Jordan in your nightmares every night huh?

He is not, has never been, and will never be a better anything than Mike. And yes, that includes being a scorer.

jordan's better overall. but when kobe gets rolling...i dunno if anyone in nba history is touching him.
This.

Kobe will rain in shots from all over the court when he gets in the zone. He's a better "blackout" scorer.

Except for this one little 7'2 problem

Numbers don't lie, especially gaudy numbers like 38,000 points

It would take Jordan another 2-3 season playing a full 82 games averaging 30ppg to surpass Kareem. Kobe will pass :mjpls: , but he wont pass Kareem, and probably not the Mailman. I'd like to see him to, but his body wont make it.

You can give the edge to Kobe in 3pt shooting. Marginal.

Jordan's better at every aspect of scoring. And basketball, for that matter.

Kobe is the best chucker in NBA history. :pachaha: nikka has the worst shot selection I've ever seen for a superstar. :scusthov: The only think he might have over Jordan is MAYBE 3pt. shooting. :stopitslime:
