Ray Allen explains why he guarded Jordan and Kobe the exact opposite way Host: “Two shooting guards you had to face, Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant. How did they help you elevate yourself?” “Mike was the unicorn. There was no side-by-side comparison. You can hold on as much as you could, because you couldn’t stop him” “He moved with such grace, but played with an immense amount of power. He’d jump over you, dunk on you, or go underneath you and through you. It was always effortless…” “If anything, be competitive, but leave him alone. He didn’t talk trash to me, so I left him alone. Because if you start talking trash to him, he’s going to turn up” “Kobe wanted to be him. We both got drafted together, so we always had this rivalry. If I scored, he was coming down… He was trying to let you know, you’re not going to one-up me”

Pat Riley believes Dwyane Wade is in the same class as Kobe Bryant and Michael Jordan 🔥 “I say this with all honesty. I’ve watched them, my teams competed against Michael Jordan to the nail, and Kobe to the nail. If you look at Dwyane Wade and his style of play, he was right in that basket of how they played. You know, when he was young and athletic. Big hands, and long arms. What a competitive attitude he had, all 3 of those guys. All 3 of them had the DNA in them. Dwyane was special” Put some respect on Dwyane Wades name.

Rip Hamilton: "Whoever voted Kobe [at 10] flat out disrespected him...when Magic comes out and says Kobe is the best Laker of all-time, that means better than him and better than the guy Magic played with, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar."

He's as good as Michael Jordan on any given day. I said to Bryant yesterday,, 'it's almost like Larry Holmes and Muhammad Ali.' He looked at me and said, 'I'm not Larry Holmes.' And he is 100% right. It is two Muhammad Ali's when you talk about Jordan and Bryant." Grant Taylor (B/R 2011): "Players that come to mind are Bill Russell, Wilt Chamberlain, Jerry West, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson, Larry Bird, Michael Jordan.

Kevin Johnson says he had to pray before guarding Michael Jordan in the NBA Finals: “Dan Marley, great defensive player guarded Jordan the first two games. Jordan averaged 45, and we down 0-2 and we had home court. We go game three. Paul Westfall, our head coach, says Kevin, we trust you. You gonna guard Michael Jordan. I’m thinking this don’t even make no sense. The best defensive player can’t guard Michael Jordan. How in the world you going to put me on Michael Jordan? I guard him. Like, I didn’t know for sure if it was real till before the game when you put the matchups on the chalkboard and they like, you know, BJ Armstrong and Jordan and Pippen, the whole team. I’m just dear Lord, please don’t put my name next to Michael Jordan. You know, you just hope he don’t put my name next to him, when he did I was like Oh my god.” (Via Byron Scott Fast Break)

Shaq says Michael Jordan is the GOAT because he never lost in the Finals 🐐 ​"Mike is the greatest of all time because of how he played, how he dominated, and he never lost in the finals. So, I know a lot of people going to see this like you said and 'oh, he doing this and he do that.' I played with Kobe, I know what a killer he was, but to me as a kid and going against him, then being the only guy to beat him in the playoffs for him to retire after three and then come back and get three, yeah, he was a different animal."

February 17, 2013: In an interview prior to the 2013 All-Star game, the "Mentor” -Michael Jordan - offered his blueprint for defending Lebron James: “I study him. When LeBron goes right, he usually drives; when he goes left, he usually shoots a jumper. It has to do with his mechanics and how he loads the ball for release. So, if I have to guard him, I’m gonna push him left 9 out 10 times. If he goes right he’s going to the hole and I can’t stop him. So, I ain’t letting him go right.” Hours later, the "Protege” - Kobe Bryant - took notice, and in a mano a mano challenge, delivered nothing short of a defensive masterclass. Kobe Bryant btw, was 34-years old. LeBron James Kobe Bryant

Gary Payton on when he knew Dwyane Wade was “him” and says he reminded him of Kobe Bryant 👀 “The year before when they ECF when they lost. I watched that. This lil kid has a lil spunk to him but he just don’t have the people to guide him the right way. When we got here I watched him in practice and how he worked, he reminded me of Kobe a lot. He’d get in there and put in his extra work. We were playing games and he had 3 games where he had 30 or more. I was like ‘we have to understand that this is him. This is his basketball team.’ I had a meeting with Posey, I had a meaning with Antoine. I said ‘yall know this kid can go, he’s the one.’ They agreed with it. Only person we had to overtake was Shaq. He bit in” (Via Miami HEAT)

Tony Allen: He pushed me past my limits, and I did the same to him. To me, that's what makes him the greatest. Steve Smith NBA: [Kobe] was the most fundamentally sound player that I've seen play. #GregAnthony: Kobe Bryant is the most complete basketball player the game has ever seen. Tony Parker: Maybe the closest to Michael Jordan, who I think is the best ever. #MattBarnes: Jordan is 1, and Kobe is 1B. Jamal Crawford: There's no list I will ever respect if Kobe Bryant isn't top 5. Klay Thompson: He's the greatest in my eyes. He is the reason I play today. Nate Robinson: Kobe, in my opinion, is second to MJ as the most complete player ever. Metta World Peace: There are legends, then there are guys who are in a class of their own. Kobe is in a class of his own. #WaltFrazier: Players see him as the biggest icon in basketball, and he deserves it. Mike knows that. Isaiah Thomas: I'm still a Kobe guy when it comes to the GOAT conversation. #KenyonMartin: [In] my 15 years of playing basketball, Kobe Bryant was the best basketball player in the National Basketball Association." Dwight Howard: "Everything Michael Jordan did, Kobe did better." Kevin Durant: "Kobe is the Greatest of all time. His skill is second to none. Him and Michael Jordan are 1A, 1B as far as skill." Shannon Brown: "Kobe is the best of all time. He comes first before Jordan." Brandon Jennings: "Jordan never win a championship without Pippen. Kobe won 2 without all time great teammates. Kobe is the GOAT."

Tim Thomas on playing AAU with Kobe Bryant and Vince Carter: “Those guys came to play with me so I had open arms, you know what I mean and it wasn’t like and y’all know my personality I was never that kind of guy with the ego. So, I was just excited because again we meet at five star. I was seeing what he was doing at five star. We heard about Kobe but never got a chance to see him because he came over late. And with Kobe, because he was in my class. I wanted to see where he was at, right? And then obviously he was right behind him as the number, you know, two or one shooting guards the next year in that class. So, we wanted to see, you what I mean? He was super, super confident. Like extreme confidence.” (Via Cousins with Vince Carter & Tracy McGrady)

Paul Pierce on Facing Kobe in The Finals: "It was stressfull, it was hard to get sleep because now youre going against the mamba the 2nd coming of Jordan, when i saw and looked at mambas eyes i saw Jordan reflection. He showed us he could go for 60 in a half, playing today i dont think theres a player that could do something like that. 60 in 3 Quarters, 81, he had a 10 game streak with 40+ points, come on its ridiculous"

And I’m thinking we down 0-2 our best player is getting scorched. Know you going to put me who had a rough two games on Michael Jordan, right? So I go back to sleep. Plane land. I wake up. I’m like, damn I had a nightmare. I thought the coach came and told me I’m guarding Michael Jordan. We walking off the plane. The coach was right there. And I’m like I had this dream you came and woke me up and told me you want me to guard Michael Jordan. He said, you are. God as my witness we get on the team bus we take it from the airport we staying at the hotel downtown. I get off the bus. I tell equipment manager to take my bags. I see a church across the street. I walk straight in that church and sit in the front row and I’m like, Jesus, I don’t believe in you no more. There’s no way if you loved me and died on the cross and did all the things you would be having me guard Michael Jordan” (Via Club520podcast)
