ESPN names top 10 shooting guards of all time, Kobe's 2nd

I despise Kobe, but yes you can already put him at 2. No question about it, he is the second best.

Tough call. You wouldn't off the top of your head think Kobe is the second best of all time, but I'm not sure who I'd put ahead of him.

You know, with a day or so to reflect on it ... who would you put ahead of Kobe?
As for whitejordan, I don't know if he can challenge Jordan's status as #1 unless he just rips off about 4 rings in the next 6 years or so. Jordan was just insanely dominant as the lead dog on both ends of the court. Kobe's getting there, but still hasn't led a team past the first round as the #1 option.

Yeah, Kobe's 2nd, and if he can keep his current pace for the next 3-4 years, which is very possible, and wins another ring or 2, which with the team he has, is also possible, then we have an argument for number 1, in my opinion.

Typical ESPN bullshit

I don't think Bryant should be #2. Because he's only been good for a few years, and he isn't a all around player.....like 5 assists isn't much.....and so on.

I think Iverson should have a higher ranking, like where Kobe is. You know rebounds don't matter. Iverson is top 3 in points, top 5 in steals, and top 10 in assists, and he does this every season. And I am also a big AI fan. He had these stats ever since he joined the league. Kobe started to have his stats he's having now half way through his career.
This is mine:
1. Jordan
2. Iverson
3. West
4. Bryant
5. Gervin
6. Drexler
7. Miller
8. Maravich
9.Monroe
10. Dumars

Moneeman your right Kobe has only been good for a little while... Note he has been in the league for 11 full seasons, and this will be his 12th...

10 time all star
2 time scoring leader
3 time NBA champion
2 time NBA all star MVP
9 time all NBA selection
7 time ALL DEFENSE selection
He was on the all rookie second team
Youngest player to be on the all defensive team ever
Youngest slam dunk contest champ..
He holds 5 NBA records...
He holds or shares 29 LA Lakers records...(but they have only been good for a little while... HAHAHAHAHAHA yea right....)
5 assist a game for a true SG is pretty dang good... AI plays point guard a lot more than Kobe does... Just like Lebron does...

But your right he has only been good for a few years.. haha so ignorant.

9 time all star
4 time scoring leader
3 time steals leader (only player to lead both steals and points in one season is MJ)
2001 NBA MVP
2 time all star MVP
All rookie first team
Rookie of the Year
Only rookie to ever score 40 or more points in 5 consecutive games.
6 time all-nba selection
3rd in all time career scoring average
20th in all time scoring ( and it took Iverson less games to do so, its took Kobe 38 more games)
5th all time steals per game (career average)
14th in all time steals (total)
Led his team to the NBA Finals in 2001 (Did Kobe do that? No. He had help from Shaq)
Had the most points per game average in the playoffs.
And at the age of 32 he is accomplishing more.
Allen Iverson deserves a higher spot, and Kobe deserves a lower spot. Im not a Kobe hater, he is one of my favourite players. But stat-wise AI deserves a higher spot.

"Moneeman your right Kobe has only been good for a little while... Note he has been in the league for 11 full seasons, and this will be his 12th... "

no i i didnt say he was good for a little while. I said he started to get good "like" half way through his career.

What I said and what you said are two different things.

REGGIE MILLER? Is that a joke? The #6 shooting guard of all time? Playing during the 3pt era, he carries a terrible top-10 of all-time average... what else did he do? Oh, he never hit the big shot? I guess that's totally deserving of top-10 all time. I'd take Wade's shot lived dominance over Miller's sustained 1 dimensional game!

I agree...Not to mention that Miller NEVER PLAYED DEFENSE, FLOPPED ALL THE TIME, & usually SCORED OF AN AVERAGE OF 18 SCREENS...

What you said was and is still retarded as hell !!!! He started to get good "like" in his third season.. So you are "like" wrong. Iverson has not had somebody on his level as a teammate therefore not having to share points and other things like that. He came into the league having to be the best... You honestly think if AI had shaq and Kobe had the sixers that Kobe's stats wouldnt be even higher than what they are??? AI has had Carmelo, Camby, Nene, and Kenyon yet he hasnt done anything playoff wise has he??? Kobe deserves and has a higher spot than AI. Just the facts...

Defintely number 2. Kobe is amazing, whoever it was that wrote iverson up there has never seen Kobe play.

Kobe is better than iverson.......kobe is improving....iverson is not....and iverson plays like a point guard....kobe plays pure SHOOTING GUARD!...
