Are you talking about basketball or entertainment? I'm just saying Kobe is overrated as a basketball player.

In terms of longevity and accomplishments, top-15 is a bit unfair; he's in the top-10. But in terms of peak performance and impact, Kobe is certainly not top-15. At his peak, he's the same as guys like 'Nique, McGrady, Gervin, Dantley, Iverson, and a dozen others. You would never have to gameplan against Kobe like you would against an impact big like Shaq or Duncan or an all-around threat like Magic, Bird, or LeBron. Kobe has quite simply had the virtue of being on very talented teams as well as impressive longevity with them. But his impact is greatly exaggerated in the basketball community.

The moon landing is not a good analogy, because that is simply a debate over the merits of innovation. Kobe isn't innovating anything. A better comparison would be to look at the state of popular music. I would argue that Kobe is like Bieber-- he is extremely popular, has a legion of fans, but fundamentally isn't interesting to people who have been around music for a long time. You may argue that it doesn't matter, and that those people are just musical snobs. But just as those debates happen (and this is, after all the purpose of a discussion board), so too will these.

great analogy...on the other hand the moon analogy may turn up to be perfectly suitable cause I keep hearing these theories that those folks never actualy landed on the moon:grin::grin::grin: it was a hoax!
