The Best Of All Time!


So now everyone who thinks they know something about the NBA is talking about " Is Kobe better then MJ?" and everyone and their mother wants to fight about this. I was on NBA.com today and talking to other guys about this and they just about lost it when I said that MJ is not the best of all time, they thought that some how I was saying Kobe is better. I was not, some how this thing is down to Kobe Or MJ and that is it, like they are the only guys ever to play this game and play it good. So now it is my turn to put you all right. You all want to talk about how MJ has more 50 point games then Kobe and how that makes him the best player of all time. Are you all that dumb? Wilt Chamberlain has three times the 50 point games that Kobe And MJ have put together. He is the only guy who averaged 50 a game for a year and when he averaged 44.8 the next year no one thought it was that good but it was more then MJ ever averaged for a year, so do not come to me with some weak ass opinion and then try to say MJ is the best player of all time thanks to having 31 career 50 point games, Wilt Chamberlain had over a 130 career 50 point games so MJ is not in the same world as him and if you think he did any better on 60 point games think again. MJ and Kobe have four each and Wilt Chamberlain has 32, yes that is not a typo I said 32. The best player when it came to puting the ball in the bisket was Wilt Chamberlain and it is not even close.

Now when the MJ fans are not saying he was the best thanks to being the best scorer of all time they as saying something just as dumb. That he is the best thanks to wining more rings then Kobe.... Hello!! Maybe I'm the only guy in this world who knows the name Bill Russell and if that is true let me help you out by listing his honors.

Honors:
Elected to Naismith Basketball Basketball Hall of Fame (1975); NBA champion (1957, '59, '60, '61, '62, '63, '64, '65, '66, '68, '69); NBA MVP (1958, '61, '62, '63, '65);
All-NBA First Team (1959, '63, '65); All-NBA Second Team (1958, '60, '61, '62, '64, '66, '67, '68); NBA All-Defensive Team (1969); 12-time NBA All-Star (1958-69); All-Star Game MVP (1963); One of the 50 Greatest Players in NBA History (1996); Olympic gold medalist (1956).

Now read it one more time and count on your hands you unevolved tree-dwellers the number of times he was a champion. I'll give you a minute.....done? Yeah that is right ten. Ten, it is like he won as many rings as MJ and then was like ' no I think I'll do this three more times just to prove I'm the best at this. Yes one more time, MJ is not the best at this and would be lucky to rank in the top 5.


Oh and in case you are going to say that MJ did all the little things like have more assists a game then the guys who I just mantioned just remember that Bill Russell and Wilt Chamberlain's career rebound per game average is over 22.5. Bill Russell had 51 boards in one game, 49 in two others, and a dozen consecutive seasons of 1,000 or more rebounds and as As Oscar Robertson put it in the Philadelphia Daily News when asked whether Chamberlain was the best ever, "The books don't lie." Now I'm not saying that MJ is not a good player or one of the 10 best of all time but before you all start saying it is him or Kobe just remember that MJ did not set the benchmark of execellence Chamberlain and Russell did and MJ is just lucky that he is geting a mention when it comes to the best players of all time.

Last of all when it comes to who is better all time Kobe or MJ here is my list of the best players of all time 1 to 10.

1 Wilt Chamberlain

2 Bill Russell

3 Kareem Abdul-Jabbar

4 Oscar Robertson

5 Shaquille O'Neal

6 Kobe Bryant

7 Michael Jordan

8 Magic Johnson

9 Larry Bird

10 Jerry West
