JORDAN FACED MAGIC, CLYDE, GLOVE, REGGIE, PENNY, RICE IN THE POST SEASON WHEN IT MATTERED...
LIST KOBE'S POSTSEASON COMPETITION...
magic didnt guard mike, and couldnt. stop listing dudes that didnt play his position.
the reason the OP said list guards and forwards. he meant SG's and forwards who would've been matched up with MJ. and the occasional point that had to matchup like a GP vs mj or a westbrook vs kobe.
as nice as G.rice was. he had ZEROOOOO defense.
Reggie was way to thin, unathletic, but nice on offense.
the glove was a problem. but very unathletic.
KOBE off the top
Vince,
Pippen(old but still good)
TMac
Ray allen and a prime rashard lewis.on the same team double teaming him
Paul Pierce, Ray allen on the same team. both double teaming him.
Marion
AK47+Raja Bell doubling him
Tprince+rip doubling him
Lebron
Durant +westbrook(yes he's guarded kobe as well)
grant hill
Reggie miller + Prime Ron artest + prime jalen rose together
everyone named above is kobe's height, everyone i named above is atleast of average athletic ability or higher. a lot of the guys i named above are HYPER athletic or atleast above average.
half the guys i named above have insane wingspans.
i'm sorry MJ is god fans. mike did not have to play vs these Aliens like kobe did. face the facts. MIke said Dumars at 6'4 was the best defender he had to deal with. we saw him and a 6'4 starks go at it.
MELO, Dwade...come on fam. stop it.
