Didn't cringe. I was actually hoping to agree with that sentence for a long time. My evolution over the years on who the GOAT was.
Yey! Magic is the GOAT and everyone agrees with me. (Except my dad, when he announced he had HIV, my dad said, well he must be gay anyways, which I was cried out, YOUR MAD HE WAS THE GREATEST OF ALL TIME!)
I still think Magic is the GOAT, why is everyone on Jordan's dick?
We have Kobe, he plays like MJ, maybe he'll be better, he is only 19.
Man, Kobe looks great, I hope he wins 7 rings to pass MJ, we pass Boston and Kobe is seen as the GOAT.
Kobe forced Shaq out, I hate him. A few weeks later, Kobe is a Laker, I will see how this turns out.
Kobe has a real shot at being better than Jordan.
(As Kobe begins to fade) Why is everyone trying to say Kobe's not as good as MJ, he was amazing and if MJ didn't exist, then we'd call Kobe the GOAT.
Now, Kobe has had one hell of a career, maybe the greatest Laker ever. Still assessing, but I wouldn't call him better than MJ. Not yet.
Sccit:
obviously, as of today, mj has had the more glorified career....prime for prime, kobe could beat mj. if kobe could come back from his achilles rupture and lead the lakers to 2 more titles with a reformed game (about 23 points-10 assists, as he said), then the discussion is very far from over.

I am going off prime for prime. Jordan at his best was better thank Kobe. Offense, it's close with only a slight edge to Jordan, but defense it's not even close. You can say Scottie, but Michael usually guarded the best player on the other team night after night and shut them down. Scottie offered as much help as Ariza, Rick Fox, Shaq in the paint, Odom, Artest. But Kobe at his best didn't focus on D as much as MJ. that's the difference.
If Kobe can over come a usually career ending injury and claim a title going 23-10, you have to give the edge to Kobe because he proved he can overcome more. But it hasn't happened so that's yet to be proven.

Pre-1993 Jordan, oh yes, He guard Magic, Drexler, Wilkins and even Larry Bird for a play or too. He was 1988 defensive player of the year. He as a regular on the NBA all defensive team. And oh yeah, he'd guard the best players. Post 1995, he was a highly overrated defensive player. But we are talking prime for prime right. Because Jordan's prime was early 90's, and in the early 90's he defended the other teams best, unless it's a PF or C.
