Kobe is the top offensive threat in the NBA and it's not even close. He's also in the top 3-4 defensive players. He's a whiner, a rapist, and a cheap shotter, but he's still the closest thing there ever was or will be to Jordan. When he finishes it'll be MJ #1, Kobe #2, and if Lebron is LUCKY he'll be considered one of the top 25.
