Early 90's Jordan VS Kobe (anytime in his career) Who is more dominant?

Stop it. This "comparison" is ridiculous. Jordan was:

1) a far better defender
2) playing in a WAY more competitive league (with Bird and Celtics, Magic and Lakers, and Thomas and Pistons)
3) a far better teammate
4) winning titles without a dominant big man as a teammate.

I could go on, by why bother.

1.Jordan was defensive player of the year
2.Jordan played against far far far far better players and dominated.
3.Jordan could use his whole team to his benefit.

Michael Jordan

1) Jordan REGULARLY scored over 50 points per game.

2) Jordan carried his team single-handedly.

3) Jordan won more championships.

It's elementary, really.

JORDAN

Jordan ...if u watch nba for 25years....u would know that every time the game came down to last sec shot,the ball would land on the hand of jordan to bring bring the rings,but in lakers ,shaq play a very important role in bringing back the teams unlike jordan does it alone..

I don't need 3 attributes......Jordan is every attribute. Jordan now is better than Kobe!

Michael Jordan definetley.

1)More Championships
2) MVP
3)Defensive player of the year

He's a better shooter, but i'll give Kobe dunking.

4-1 MJ

Jordan!

jordan would dominate kobe, jordan plays good defense all the time kobe plays good d some of the time, jordan actually passes, and jordan can still score jordan wins

MJ fo sho, if you don't know, now you know.

Like they say MJ is the greatest of all time. but Kobe is still one of the best currently.

It is not even a comparison. Jordan is the best of all time, period.

Jordan, no doubt about it.

There both good. But i wont be shocked if Kobe does end up being better than MJ at the end of his career.

They are about the same except Jordan comanded respect and Kobe has a knack for irritating people. People forget Kobe went head to head with Jordan during Jordan's last 2 championship runs and usually played well against him and wasn't very intimidated at all. In fact Jordan used to give Kobe pointers on how to improve his game when he was 18 and first came into the NBA. Also Jordan has said Kobe is the best guard in the NBA, and has said he can see similarities in their game. You got to remember Kobe grew up practicing Jordan's moves so to compare the two isn't very fair. I will say that Jordan had better shot selection though were I feel Kobe shoots when he shouldn't and passes when he should shoot sometimes but not all the time. As far as stats it's not really going to give you an accurate analysis because Kobe would have a lot of scoring titles if he was drafted by a team with no other dominant scorers when he was younger and when Jordan lead the NBA in steals hand checking was legal so it's hard to say whether or not Kobe could do the same guarding shooting guards if hand checking was not illegal.

Check the stats. Kobe has superseded Jordan's numbers as far as scoring averages per season, defense, less time to get a championship. Of course with the help of Shaq at his side, he was almost able to beat Jordan's championships. Early 90's Jordan has similarities to Kobe's old play, but he is more dominant now than the early Jordan.

Kobe

1) Kobe is a better shooter
2) Jordan is a better dunker
3) Kobe is a better defender

2-1 Kobe
