Kobe is my least favorite player of all-time. I think the "he's the ultimate NBA closer" talk I hear on TV just pushed me so far over the edge. I honestly don't think he's a top 10 player of all-time. Top 20 sure.
He might be. I admit I am very biased against him.
I do stand firm by my stance that he simply is not a closer, and never has been one. He's had as many clutch moments as he's had choker moments.
I do know that he's never had any postseason games like LeBron had last year Game 6 against Boston and years back against Detroit where he torched them and scored his team's final 28 points or something ridiculous like that.
LeBron is playing at a level right now we haven't seen since MJ.
MJ, though, distances himself SO FAR from the pact because he was...THE ULTIMATE...closer. Something we'll probably never see again.
His level of clutch is simply off the charts. That's what made MJ the legend he is.
