I love how people are realizing how much love Jordan has for Kobe. I feel like it cements his legacy, not that it needed to be. But when you have Jordan giving someone's HOF speech, you can't argue that player's greatness.
I think what made KB and MJ similar is they both maximized their potential, there wasn't any wasted potential. If their body is capable of doing certain things then they did it, that's something we can all aspire to in whatever field we are working towards to.
Wow . Michael Jordan is the goat .
You late bro...
No doubt the Goat of goats Championships & hall of fame speeches
The fact he admits he’s been trolling people is amazing 😂😂😂😂
Rip Kobe😭😭😭😅😅😭 still can’t find words you will always be one of my favourite basketball players just thank you for everything 😭😭😭😭😭😭
Every hater knows in the back of their head that Jordan is the greatest that ever touched a basketball, they just too stubborn to admit! Jordan=Greatness
the problem is bron fans. bron fans need to understand that hes hasn't even surpassed kobe yet, let alone mj
@@yeon723 Something I heard that always sticks to me when thinking of Kobe, is that Kobe is just a slightly worse version of MJ, who is the GOAT.
@@yeon723 true talk
@@Frosty-sm1hv you're right which is what makes it more weird when people dont put kobe in the top 3 all time. If you're CLOSE to mj then you are close to him in greatness.
So it is. MJ THE ONLY GOAT
Will always be my favorite player
Congrats Kobe!!!
John Salley right on point!.This man really knows his basketball. I couldn't have said better myself.
Thank you John.. I definitely appreciate your opinion. You are definitely appreciated in my house sir. Thank you for all the very great years you put in the league.
Two gods of basketball Kobe and MJ, MJ is the GOAT but if you pick MJ i'm picking Kobe
Rip Kobe, but Magic is in my opinion the greatest laker of all times, and Kobe is a close second....both legends, I think all can agree on that
I agree with you 100% I am a big Magic Johnson fan. Look what he did his rookie year in championship series 6th game played all 6 positions started at center. The ultimate compliment I have heard from Worthy is that Magic made other players better that is why he is the greatest Laker player of all time if not the GOAT
Wow did John Sally just admit that jordan is GOAT?!
He only started saying Jordan wasn't the goat when he knew it got him some clout.
Because he's on Network TV not Vlad TV..
He already said it before
Everybody admits that Jordan is the GOAT. Some people just have an agenda, like ESPN marketing executives.
@@thsu8 wait... don't you know about galaxy? And then you're comment seems like you're saying ESPN doesn't like Jordan while galaxy says ESPN always worships Jordan.
"I'm not gonna be the next MJ.....I'm gonna be the first Kobe Bryant!"
It's nice to want to be as good as someone. to emulate the great things they do.. but it's good to be ones self..be the best you you can be..not the best someone else..
Kobe mentioned wanting MJ and Phil Jackson there at his Induction years before he passed away..
John S. Say he always knew that MJ IS THE G.O.A.T. But he say; he wants to say something different from everyone else
23
John Sulley should be an ESPN Anchor and replace guys like Jay Williams
Thank you! Absolutely Jay needs to go
Word
Well i won't go that far and reject JW his job but agreed 🤭boredom. But gotta give JS absolutely should be in the ESPN mix, Heavy on that sauce. Own show/something.
what about kendrick perkins?
Inspiring.
Love that Dr. J artwork in background
Next to Ali.
I've seen the Ali artwork. I own the Ali artwork but that Julius "The Doctor " Erving is purely beautiful as artwork goes. The New York Nets uni. The #32. The fro. The DOCTOR!!!
@@MrKingrahjordan The #32 Nets Nassau Coliseium is the REAL Doc....yeah he had some flashes in Philly, but those who missed the ABA Doc....missed a treat!!
@@missayawk Doc was Doc at all times. Even now.
You seen Kobe Bryant in Michael Jordan, but the facts are Michael Jordan was a fundamental basketball player and Kobe Bryant did what all basketball players supposed and should do, is studied the game, that's why kids attend basketball camp. Kobe Bryant was a student of the game and we will never know how good Kobe Bryant would have been,
if Phil Jackson and Del Harris didn't hold Kobe Bryant back he would have eclipse Michael Jordan scoring records, league MVP'S and championships. Kobe Bryant was made to shared the Ball early in his career which helped Shaquille O'Neal become a better player. Michael Jordan and Lebron James didn't have to share the Ball for the first seven years of their careers.
The triangle offense forced the sharing of the ball but in the end Jordan is the greatest scorer of all-time and also one of the greatest defenders ever. You can't beat that combination.
Yup!!
wow john salley callin MJ the goat? didnt expect that
Hi to you ,John, come back with a Show any kind u r missed, congratulations to MJ,my ❤️ to Mrs V and girls
MJ was a competitive & a championship mindset and a goat 👉😎👈.
Kobe took MJ's championship mindset to an another level, that is why Kobe is the mini goat
🙏🙏💞🙏🙏.
Yes, Kobe is one of the hall of famers BUT Michael Jordan is the only GOAT in the hall of fame.
Great Salley
Do everything young!!!!
Finally the truth came out....way to go John salley
Kobe is goat
😥
Doc was Doc everywhere. Even now.
SUBLIME ❤️❤️❤️
I knew John knew all the time who the goat is...
I like that canelo art!!!!! In the back let's go! Kobe canelo legends
Canelo is no legend
That’s Ali
GOAT is way overused
John Salley on the Bench for most of the time this Happened!
love to hear from john salley. much better than espn brings up kendrick. He isn't even professional
Lakers=Kobe Forever!!
40 years Kobe was on this planet 1 million people couldn't do?
More like 7+ billion (with a B) people couldn't do.
@Mathew Michaels shut up, you make no sense, you're basically saying he is successful because of his height? Really? Shut up.
@@streetfightervsxenoverse1832 Well... He's not wrong. You need to be tall to play basketball, the way he played it. It takes a lot more than just that to be great, but it is a requirement.
@@winstonsmith11 Allen Iverson is probably 5'10 and look at how great he was, and as you said 99percent of basketball players are well over 6feet tall and haven't come close to accomplishing what Kobe Bryant did in his career..
Round that to all but a few hundred thousand were able to have ever had such an impact in any public life and then we're close. Kobe had enough projects lined up for the next ten years of his life to surpass any of his idols or peers combined. He was just starting his second act and one he felt would be bigger than the first one.
@@magick1969 what are you talking about? Kobe Bryant was never gonna surpass Michael Jordan regardless of anything he had planned for his future outside of basketball, let alone surpassing all his peers combined? Just stop , kobe Bryant is an all time great no doubt and in my opinion he is the second best of all time right behind MJ , But he was not gonna surpass Michael Jordan with his projects outside of basketball..
Salley looks like he still could play 🤣 black don‘t crack
Vegan and good genetics
There is Mj then Kobe and everybody else.
Wilton Norman Chamberlain is the greatest and the record books prove it! LOL...72 records to this day! LOL
Kareem is the greatest ALL TIME player.The man was ANOINTED as a future great ENTERING H.S...Was called the "Tower Of Power "( Power Memorial H.S)...He exceeded all expectations....LeBron had the same pressure entering the NBA as a #1 pick outta H.S social media age.Michael Jordan had no such expectations.Wasnt even Mr Basketball in N.C his senior year.Wasnt the best player on his team when he 1st went to UNC ( James Worthy).But he's arguably the BEST NBA player EVER.Not the best of ALL time.Put some respect on Kareem and Lebron's name.With a bullseye on your back at 14 and 16 years old respectively and to play into your 40s and late 30s without a hitch is AMAZING.MJ had it easy.....no expectations even when he came outta college.He wasn't touted to be an all time great.His path was easier.
Kobe Bryant scored 81 points in a game
He hogged the ball, he was never a passer.
@@paengguin9381 #1 shooting guard all time in career assists. Now go play call of duty kid.
@@paengguin9381 damn you a casual 😂
Against the worst defense in the league... Kobe Bryant blew 3-1 lead against the Suns.
@@air2373 that's cool but guess what he went back to back and what's his record? 5-2 but please go off
I agree with Sally about Kobe being the greatest laker
Same here
The Ultimate Laker was Kareem The most influential Laker was Kobe
This guy look like jb smooth
lmaoo straight up
It's obviously Kobe turned out to be Michael's favorite NBA player. Just real straight talk.
carpe diem 😥
I will never ever under any circumstances respect a clone
Well everyone knew that....mj was his fav player...
Seems like a no-brainer to me
Best part: MJ punched me in the stomach.
John Salley is a damn troll😂
I like how Kobe and mike both had problems with the pistons exept one lost in the finals
The Mike lost to the Pistons Ecf in 1989& 1990 both game 7’s. And MJ gave the Pistons are harder time then the Lakers and Blazers those yrs. but I get what you mean
True but Mike solved that problem emphatically
Kobes stats do not match up with Jordans.Plus Jordan was a better defensive player. A better comparison is LeBron and Jordan.
Spoke nothing of the caption or HOF period. Sooooo waste of stream and time 🙄😑😫⛑👎🏽
I love players/former players who answer like this when ask about who the greatest is. I mean I know he ultimately said MJ, but he also said it depends on the decade. Because the advancements the game goes through every decade is great. Players in the 60s will be more skilled than the 50s. 70s>60s and so on. So it's hard to say really. People in the 2000s has Kobe as their "MJ." 2010 it's LeBron. And that will change again in the future.
@I Am King I'm not comparing these greats. Obviously MJ has that flawless 6-0 in the finals. The point I'm trying to make is as time passes, players will get overshadowed by newer ones. Like how young kids these days won't know about Bill Russell's 11-1 unless they really look it up. We're seeing it saying that Kobe is basically their MJ. Then younger players like Lonzo or Luka saying that it's LeBron for them. It's not disrespecting the previous generation but it's about who you grew up watching. That's why if you ask MJ, it'll be guys like Dr. J or Magic or Larry.
yea sooo yall thought MJ would say no or something? tf lol
I actually started investing in bitcoin before lockdown now I have make Profits more than I expected
Stocks are good but crypto is more profitable
That won't bother you if you trade with a professional like Mr Gerald
I heard that his strategies are really good
Yeah
My first Investment with Mr Gerald earned me profits of over $24,320 US dollars and ever since then he has Been delivering
He's obviously the best I invested 2000USD with him and in 9 days I made a profit of 9101USD
The madly break mostly stroke because message literally hook after a possible damage. abaft, shocking headline
The new fact beverly race because bean currently dare amidst a shallow step-grandfather. nostalgic, concerned memory
Get rich and be happy or be a killer and get peace?
The mature dime respectively complete because theater ethically invent including a aspiring panther. ambitious, shaggy router
1:10 How can he tell MJ at the age of 27 that Kobe would had given it to him, when at that time Kobe wasn't even in the NBA? Don't get it. Makes no sense to me.
Kobe was 27
@@billbixby9381 how old was MJ? Did he even play?
Umm those first three were Shaquille’s
Michael jordan never missed a game? Didn't he retire 3 times?
He have 9 seasons playing every regular season game.
he played 11 seasons on the bulls (not including 86 and 95 where he played 17 games each) and played 82 games 9/11 times
when you retire you are not employed in the game. so how can he miss a game when he is retired. please dont be stupid
He didn’t mean that literally,he meant basically he didn’t “load management “ in games like they do now. And stop the silly games about 3 retirement ,would like to inform us why he retired 3 times? No “conspiracy theories “ please
Retired means no longer working. That's different from not showing up for work.
YESTERDAY YOU SAID TODAY AND TODAY YOU SAID TOMORROW.
WHEN YOU BECOME SO AFRAID TO INVEST INTO YOUR FUTURE, WEALTH BECOMES SO AFRAID OF REACHING YOU
MOST POOR PEOPLE ARE THE ONES WHO CLAIM TO BE TOO WISE TO INVEST INTO A PLATFORM THAT WORKS FOR OTHERS.FOREX IS ACTUALLY THE BEST THING TO THINK ABOUT
Forex/Bitcoin trading is more profitable and a big chance to make more money nowadays.
Yes sure, forex is a more profitable online busines.
I have been trading for over 7months now with no good returns rather get loss account blown.
You gotta see investors scared and loose funds due to ignorance.
I have been in such situation before and it wasn’t an easy one.
Sounds like another pig move, a reaction for me-- the BOSS.
With all due respect, Earvin "Magic" Johnson is the GOAT Laker!!
Magic is the sentimental favorite. But kobe is the greatest Laker.
@@robbereal1982You should say Kobe is the sentimental favorite because if his death.But Magic is the GOAT Laker.
@@Perfection212 he's not. Magic would tell you that himself.
@@Perfection212 kobe was more influential played longer for the Lakers was the better player. That's the truth
@@robbereal1982 Why because of scoia media?Did Kobe jump in at Center and scored 42 points, 15 rebounds and 7 assusts in the NBA Finals on his Rookie Year?No, because Kobe was playing under the shadow of Shaq.Those 3 championships were Shaq's team and not Kobe's!Magic transcended his Laker on to the next decade of the 90's and battled Jordan in The Finals even at the tail end of his career!The Lakers under the leadership of Magic dominated the Decade of the 80's and together with Bird transformed and saved the NBA!C'mon man, you are a Laker fan you should know this by now.How old are you by the way?
"u will always pay the respect to the one in front of you". well not for bron.... he think he is the greatest...
I’m sorry I love Kobe but he is not the greatest Laker it is Magic Johnson who is the greatest Laker. Magic never asked for a trade like Kobe did or wanted to be traded.
If I remember correctly, Magic had quite a bit to do with Coach Paul Westhead getting fired at the end of 80-81 season.
Lmfao okay? What a terrible way to support your argument 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Bro what are you talking about he did request a trade, he even told the media publicly
@@danielvergara1831 I never said he didn’t.. 🤡🤡🤡 im just saying that’s a horrible reason to dismiss Kobe as not being the greatest laker... like you couldn’t think of a better reason 🤡🤡
@@danielvergara1831 it’s like saying lebrons not the greatest cav because he asked for a trade🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡
Love kobe! BUT he aint topping kareem and magic as the greatest lakers ever!....
I don't understand why you need John Salley's opinion on the matter lol. Slow news day I guess.
Every time a helicopter falls out of the sky I instinctively say KOBE. For that alone he deserves to be in the hall of fame
Kobe not even top 10 of all time. Good player thought, respect.
On your list!! Speak for yourself!!🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️
Kobe>>>>>Lebron
Stay off the drugs
@@EricK-ir8np can easily name 10 players greater than Kobe.
