Now all those people who were comparing Kobe to Jordan will finally shut up
I hearf Kobe asking the media to not compare him to MJ,,, heck that would be like a golfer in the future trying to fill Tiger's shoes

  wouldn't be as fair
  golf is one guy
  Wilt proved eons ago that one man don't equal a championship
  Jordan proved it too. Dropped 63 on the Celts and still lost
  Any team sport its hard to compare, but Kobe doesn't even match up in a flat statistical way with Jordan, let alone the 6 titles and all the other personal accomplishments, so I was getting annoyed with all the Kobe/Jordan comparisons
  As an old Cavs fan, you could say I'm somewhat familiar with Jordan's work
  If I remember correctly, Jordan and the Bulls knocked Cleveland out of the playoffs 5 out of 7 years
  Think about all the great players and teams Jordan kept from winning titles, the Jazz with Malone and Stockton, Portland, Cleveland, the Knicks with Ewing, Indiana with Miller and so on
  I'm convinced the only reason Houston snuck in there is because Jordan wanted to try baseball for awhile.
  anyway, the Celtics played great defense and played with heart, while the Lakers frankly looked confused for half the series
