Why Kobe Will Never Be Michael
www.tiricosuave.com 6/13/2008 — Kobe’s awesome. He’s the best player in the world right now. He’s probably even be the best basketball player we’ve seen since Michael Jordan. But simply put, he’s not Michael Jordan. In fact, he’s not even close, nor will he ever be. Let me illustrate this for you in list form.

How the Boston Celtics Saved the NBA's Credibility
www.stetsports.com 6/13/2008 — Like professional wrestling, fans could care less about the outcome, as long as it reasonably fits the story lines that developed along the way. KG's first shot at championship glory after years of mediocrity blends too well with Kobe's rise from being the Napolean Dynamite of the league, to it's Napolean Bonaparte.

Game Four Does Not Sway Kenny Anderson's View of Kobe Bryant
20secondtimeout.blogspot.com 6/13/2008 — The easiest, color by numbers story to write in the wake of the Celtics' brilliant comeback victory over the Lakers starts with the words "Kobe Bryant should never again be compared with Michael Jordan." However, former All-Star Kenny Anderson does not think that Bryant's skills should be judged based on what happened in game four.

blogs.hoopshype.com 6/13/2008 — This NBA Finals has been chased by history. There’s Kobe Bryant, and, inevitably, there are the comparisons with Michael Jordan and Bryant’s hunt for Jordan’s legacy.
