    Kobe also praised Chandler a couple of years ago as well.

    If stubborn Kobe Bryant praises 2 of your players openly, you should be pretty excited.

    Westbrook is worse, his clothing is a crime against humanity.

    Did he also say Nick Young? I saw a quote that actually named Nick Young too.

    Naming guys who he does not believe pose a threat to his legacy. However, I do think he will be a good, fair analyst after his playing days are over.

    To be fair. "That gene" is not something you're born with. Most of the time, it's developed early, but sometimes not.

    Yup.
    Don't see him naming LeBron. Until Kobe gets immortalized like Jordan does and hordes of fanboys claim him to be untouchable.

    Its ridiculous. Hey "player x" is getting up there, he might have a shot at passing Jordan.
    Fanboy sheep: NO. Are you stupid? The 90s were the toughest era of basketball ever, even seasoned marines and military veterans wouldn't survive in that era like Jordan did. Jordan is the GOAT. He's the greatest to have ever played. The NBA is weak. Blah blah blah bull****.

    I'm going to hate hearing all this crap about Kobe too.

    Not a kobe fan but he doesn't give praise unless he believes it. Kobe is as blunt as they come so praise from him is def a good thing.

    Yep. But he said its cause nick young never misses whenever Kobe plays him.

    Sure Kobe is as blunt as they come but he still arrogant and would not admit Lebrons greatness.

    When he was asked about your toughest competitior, he said AI, T-Mac, Durant, and some others but not Lebron.
