Lamar Odom: 'Kobe Said He Was Better Than Mike' | ALL THE SMOKE 

Facts

Still does

62 actually. I still remember that game til this day

@@robertstrasner442 same shit, he still out scored an entire team BY HIMSELF IN 3 QUARTERS. Lol

@@mikehoops87 oh I know. Probably the most impressive thing I've ever seen done in the NBA. Guy was the greatest offensive basketball player ever

@Michael _te87 it don't matter what they saying about points...great comment

real talk this shit is HARD to do in 2k My career at the highest difficulty and Kobe did it in real life against Dirk.

And master P tried to call Kobe a fake friend to LO.

Kobe left the game early before it even finished! Thats how much love he had for L.O

I realize I'm kind of randomly asking but does anyone know a good place to watch newly released movies online ?

I think Kobe was the only one MJ felt that “real recognize real” kindred spirit.

@JayJay Pay 💯

😭😭😭😭

😂😂😂😂😂😂

had me weak

Omg I was thinking same exact damn thing 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭🤣🤣🤣💯💯💯lord.. What is he even there

Easy money! Nah he puts his 2 cents once in a long while. “Not a form of transportation!” 😂 I’d put in my 2 cents for 6 figures!

@fresh2def234eva what is he even there for? I think that's how you tried to word it dickhead

@@kingfamothegoat9430 u the grammar police or sumn

@King Famo The Goat nah I meant what I said Maggot

I never met Kobe but it felt like a family member died, I’ve never cried more as an adult. Watched people on the streets of my hometown of LA crying in the aftermath. I can’t imagine what it feels like for those that won titles with him.

@JayJay Pay 💯...all my favorites are gone...Aaliyah..Pac...Kobe...Prince

In terms of playstyle sure. People confuse similar play with being as good though.

@DThaMaestro good point.

@Kolo WATTTZ I don't see how it isn't 100% true. You're clearly one of those people who think Kobe was even close to as good as Jordan, when the reality is that Rookie Jordan was arguably superior to MVP Kobe, so just imagine to what extent the gap is between a season for Jordan such as 1991. Jordan was superior to Kobe in every way outside of 3 point shooting, and even then Jordan shot nearly 35% from 3 for his prime from 1987 to 1997. He was a far superior and more consistent defender, a better rebounder, a better and more willing passer, a more productive and much more efficient scorer, a better playoff performer by a wide margin, and if you like advanced metrics Kobe doesn't come close in that regard either. Jordan has the better post game, better footwork, is more athletic, stronger, faster, has a higher vertical, the better free throw shooter, finisher around the rim, dunker, midrange shooter, and a comparable 3 point shooter at least in terms of percentages. Kobe does absolutely nothing better than Jordan. Just a cheap imitation that somehow fooled idiotic fans and even players into thinking he was just as good simply because of their striking similarities.

@DThaMaestro Yeh you right, Kobe became better.

@Angelos Better at nothing whatsoever.

Who is the player that he made better? Odom is a good player before he went to Lakers, Gasol is an All Star, Ron Artest is an All Star before they even joined Kobe. After they won a championship Odom is nothing, Howard is worst is LA, they got swept by Dallas. Can’t even bring his team to the playoffs for 4 years not making the playoffs. That is in his 32-35 yrs of age. No question, kobe belongs to the top 10 at best and top 15 at worst but people now are making him look like the best or even 2nd best because or his early death.

Agreed ‼️

@Aaron9 well lebron better then MJ

@Aaron9 um...

Kobe’s practice habits in pursuit of perfection made his moves look more polished

That's not what Kevin Garnett and Paul Peirce said about Janmes.They said James the goat.

@You're A fool you lame...i got time today to address the bullsh*t!!!!

@You're A fool stfu..internet thugs be killin me..stay behind yo screen dawg

@Jamal Daniels stfu

WHAT ARE U IMPLYING? KOBE NEVER SAID HE THOUGHT MJ WAS BETTER IN THE LAST DANCE. NOT 1 TIME DID HE SAY THAT. HE SAID MY FANS THINK ID JUST SMOKE MJ 1 ON 1. THATS WHY HE SAID WHAT HE SAID.....HE WAS JUST SAYING IT WOULDNT BE AS EASY AS HIS FANS THINK. BECAUSE WHAT U GET FROM ME COMES FROM HIM.

@@cameroncreed1442 MJ was his mentor u dumbass so he looked up to what he saw and tried to be better than Mike and if he succeeded then the comparison would still be him and Mike not Mike and Lebron James

@@kissmygrits8782 Right. Kobe Never played A Jordan that was at his Best

@@KongoZo Facts

@@KongoZo n vise versa!!!!!!

That’s Jordan beating himself lol

MJ was a one man show and the reason NBA ratings were at their highest...you must not have seen MJs athleticism and reverse layups..no look shots against his opponents ...MJ even had crowds from opposing teams cheering for him

@jason hearn lol yup, never saw Michael do any one those things- I saw all of it. And all of what you said was true. Still would rather watch Kobe. Kobe was more fluid and beautiful to watch than Michael. MHO.

@Bullroarer 1685 lol ok to each his own...be well sir

@jason hearn and you. All these guys are great. Jordan was magic on the court.

Are you crazy? Lol

@You're A fool Troll

@Aaron9 Jesus buddy was so aggressive and that’s quite the contrary

@You're A fool *Whatever foolish #Clown:🤡❗❕!*🤷🏾‍♂️

what makes lebron so great and a big of a threat is that hes a system along with a big body and freak strengths and athleticism,

I have no clue how lebron got into this😂😂🤔Kobe Bryant is my favorite player ever, and I’ll still lebron James has been incredible his entire career! No need to tear down lebron to make Kobe Bryant even greater. Both were and are wicked basketball players. I don’t know how you watched lebron James play and said there’s someone easily better than him 😂😂that’s impossible lad🤷‍♂️

Facts

Diadora. O.G. Status

@@squarerounds Yes sir lol

They’re just chilling, plus LO needs time to think nowadays

@Daniel McQuitty why is that?

03 _Bagas Prasetya Wibowo he is recovering from a stroke im pretty sure.

@dahMAN ahh i see

L.O. said what he said.

Thank you.

We don’t really care what you have never even thought. I’m old enough to have seen them both as well and MJ was better till Kobe came. Does anyone gonna give a shit bout my opinion either? Nah, lol so with that being Kobe the goat! RIP Bean!

@CJKB247 AND......you said that like I give a fuck what you just said. RIP to KB but he isn't or wasn't better than THE GOAT MICHAEL JORDAN!! Now bye FELICIA

I feel that

Very loaded.. maybe dribbling and range. But overall better, no.

Jordan demonstrated range in several games against Detroit. To say Kobe wouldn't had those issues is incorrect in many ways. First, Kobe's game is a culmination of Michael's triumphs and failures. No Kobe without Michael Jordan. The only advantage Kobe has is he watched Michael vs the bad boys, he learned a lot from Michael. Kobe struggled against the 2004 Champion Pistons, and he had Shaq, Malone and GP...Kobe would had less success if He and Michael changed time zones

@Power Gear and Michael's game is a mix of doctor j and David Thompson... that goes without saying.. and I watch those games live, jordan was not shooting 30ft jumpers.. I should have been more clear, Detroit couldn't play kobe the same way they Played jordan... dosen't mean kobe would win or loose they just couldn't play him the same.

@HotGritz910 yes. True it is. But Kobes game is like Michael's more than any other comparison in NBA history

U act like in 09 and 10. Lakers was loaded the only Allstars they had was Pau. The bench players were just role players

Jordan had pippin Rodman and Kerr. All 6 chips. The other guys were solid and played defense

@Aaron9 I don't think Jordan would agree with you

@Aaron9 it would be competition. Rookie kobe killed MJ & pippen

What about the results tho? Lol

Thank you.

he was a mj wannabe..

💯

Lmaooooooo

Biggie is Shaq

@George Alvarado no hes snoop. Escape physical comparisons for a sec

MJ was Pac. Untouchable presence and aura. Transcended basketball and rap. Prime was 1991-1996. Trials and tribulations in 1995 and back on top of the world in summer 1996. Kobe was Eminem. Most skilled ever at their craft because of their insane work ethic. Burst onto the scene in the late 1990's, May-June 2000 foreshadowed their future greatness, at the top of the game in 2002, hard times from 2003-2008, redemption in 2009.

@@thsu8 great observation. So who's Jay Z

@@steppababynupe LeBron is Jay-Z. The goat of the casual fan. Real rap fans know that Jay isn't in the goat conversation. He's a superficial goat driven by media hype. He doesn't have the mindset, power, passion, authenticity, skill, or poetic beauty of Pac and Em. LeBron doesn't have the fundamentals and footwork and mental toughness of MJ and Kobe. Jay doesn't speak with the power of Pac. Jay can't write clever rhyme schemes or murder a punchline like Em. LeBron is a 6'9" 270 lb genetic freak and one of the 3 best pure athletes in NBA history along with Wilt and Allen Iverson. Jay had the God-given ability to write songs in his head without putting a single word on paper.

Funny because nobody knows who the fuck they are except gossipy women. Matt stays winning lol

@@blackout2430 lol yeah ! I agree because Matt Barnes is definitely a well known name in the league.

@@layparisss I mean I have always been confused about people‘s perception of what is a great basketball player when it comes to the NBA specifically. Like if you were a first round draft pick if you are not Michael Jordan level then you are a bust. People think in extremes. Yeah sure Matt Barnes wasn’t Kobe Bryant, but I would take him over a very long list of good players if I’m trying to build a team to win a championship. There are so many things that people do not take into account when it comes to the effectiveness of a player. They think strictly in terms of skill. They don’t take into consideration the intangibles which Matt always had. But even so, he still had the skill. I bet you if Matt Barnes wasn’t so obsessed with getting high all the time and he transmuted that drive into becoming the best he could’ve become one of the all-time great‘s who may be lead his own team to a championship. But it is what it is he did what works and worked for him and what made him successful. That doesn’t make him any less of a player. I could go on and on about all other players not just Matt Barnes. A lot of guys get overlooked just because they simply didn’t win multiple championships as the number one guy on their team

@blackout2430 it's not all about the court. Matt solid in the locker room, behind the scenes. Matt a real one, well respected around the league.

@blackout2430 Nah I get where you was going but the average person who doesn't follow sports isn't going to know Matt barnes whether he was a championship leader or not. He doesn't have the mentality or personality for that. You could be one of the greatest NBA players of all time and most ppl wouldn't know it. Few examples John Stockton, Tim Duncan, and a bunch of other great players who weren't really know for things other then basketball

No they didn’t lol. They won in 2011

PERIOD!

Webber bibby christie bobby jackson gerald wallace divac n you lol. That peja king team was lit battles against my Lakers

@Sean Jones but it's better to have that mentality

Nah I disagree. I would still take MJ. No disrespect to Kobe. Rip. The pistons in the 2004 finals completely locked him up.

Kobe was and is great but i can't even say he's better than MJ because he played more identical just like him.

All those players you mentioned... they MJ's sons

UM BRUCE LEE.....MASTER IP

I think its outta respect for lamar, he knows how much shit he's been through

He high lol
