    No because Butler defends well, can rebound, can pass and makes his shots

      Kobe did all those things 🤡

      @Faceless and Nameless bro Kobe has most missed shots in NBA history. What’s crazy is he came off the bench for fist 2 seasons. Dude was a terrible shooter, always shot his team out the game and very selfish

    Kobe, with this Heat team, would have been swept in the 1st Round.

    Butler + Luka need to teamup imo

      That would make up a Super NBA Finals for the ages, 3rd Finals matchup for the two franchises, Jimmy’s defense/mid range shooting vs Luka’s offense, deep range shooting…
      Both players are big guards, relish the moment & trash talking galore!!

    Maybe Jimmy is Jimmy…and Kobe is Kobe…

    Jimmy’s mentally is the closest to Kobe i have ever seen!! Kobe has a far more superior player though, no disrespect to Butler. I love watching Jimmy, he’s crazy good!

    Why is Monica in ESPN ? She continues to skewed nonsense.

    I hate when people just blatantly ask stupid as$ questions. Morons.

    One has 5 mf’ing rings and is WIDELY considered one of the 10 greatest players of the last 75 mf’ing YEARS…….AND ONE ISN’T!!!!!

    They need get rid of Monica! I can’t be believe she said Steph has the closet mentality to Kobe! Gtfo with that bs

    Playoff Jimmy man

    It’s funny cuz Kobe never did this before. Kobe only won with stacked teams. Never won without another star. Game 7 7-27 never forget when Ron Artest saved him.

    May 19, 2023 at 11:55 pm

    funny how Booker and Tatum always has Kobe’s name hanging by their mouths but Jimmy is the only one that actually stacks up

    Kyrie is by far easily the closest thing to Kobe and he might be even more clutch. He’s slightly a better shooter, and definitely a better 3 point shooter than Bryant

    Kobe would average 40 in this era, but no one want to talk about it. No disrespect to himmy, when I see the midrange tough shots I see the comparison and I appreciate the conversation

    Kobe is greater but at no point of his career did Kobe have a raising performance team wise like Jimmy has this year.

  23. Michael Kirk

    May 20, 2023 at 6:28 pm

    Jay Williams hit the nail on the head you can’t compare nobody to Kobe in this era it’s disrespectful
