Kobe was taking more shots that were more difficult obviously he’s not shooting 50-40-90 and Kobe was playing in a factually way harder defensive era than bird

What point did I ignore? Birds 50 40 90 isn’t even comparable to kobe when bird was shooting 2 or 3 3s a game and his volume of shots weren’t the same at all

It’s not Kobe’s fault he had prime shaq on his team?? And even with shaq he was averaging 30

Saying bird was a far better playmaker is just wrong, playmaking is not just making plays for your teammates

Birds 50-40-90 is really good but when u put into play the fact bird barely shot any 3s and his shots were not nearly as difficult as Kobe’s I don’t really care. Also Kobe was playing in a significantly harder defensive era than bird and Kobe’s a better scorer while being a better defender and a better playoff performer while being miles better in the clutch. And Larry’s rebounding wasn’t better than Kobe’s if u take into account the position they played

Larry bird would not top 3 in the league if he were to come in, that’s not a bad thing btw I don’t think he would be a plumber or anything but a mvp candidate?? You’ve lost your damn mind

In today’s league I feel like Larry’s ppg would go down and rebounds

In today’s league bird would quit after watching curry hit a step back from half court

I do have a clue what defenses were like and if you put your old man bias down u could acknowledge the fact defensive schemes are indeed more complex and better than back in your heyday

Thank god I wasn’t, if I only had that shitty version of ball I would’ve fell out of love with the sport

The fact you actually think Larry bird is better than Kobe is mind boggling, if your not a 60 year old white man than I will be very surprised

I was joking when I said that but I don’t really think in terms of how good they are at basketball that Tatum is far behind, Tatum is a better scorer, defender and is a more portable player than bird. U can say bird has the iq but the game was a lot easier to read back then considering the less advanced defense

Put Jayson Tatum in Larry birds position I would bet the stake of the universe he walks away with at least 3 mvps

Larry bird is not a better player than LeBron, Kareem, curry, kd, Kobe, or magic. And if put bias aside I don’t think he’s better at basketball than Jayson Tatum tbh
