Re: kobe bryant

Here's an interesting comparison in this week's SI on Michael & Kobe.
It compares the following statistics for both men through 27yrs 5 mths
of age, which is Kobe's age right now.

JORDAN BRYANT
PPG: 32.8 23.2
FG% 51.6% 45.2%
40-pt gms 99 55
50-pt gms 20 9
60-pt games 3 2
Career High 69 81

So statistically, considering that Michael was in the league 2 less
years at this point, who's the real ball hog? Granted they were both
playing through extremely different team and league circumstances but I
think that Michael's feats were genreally accepted as amazing feats of
talent while Kobe's are accepted as amazing feats of selfishness. It's
almost as if Kobe's talent is taken for granted and overshadowed by how
much people just don't like the guy.
