23’s Take on 24…

The greatest basketball player Michael Jordan was asked during a recent interview for promotions for NBA2K11:

Of course, there’s always the comparison of you and Kobe Bryant. Where does Kobe stand in the status of NBA players through history?

To which MJ replied:

It’s so hard to say. I think he is always going to be within the conversations of some of the greatest players who’ve played by the time he is finished. Where does he rank among those, if you are talking about positions? If you are talking about guards, I would say he has got to be in the Top 10.

In the Top 10 among those who played the guard position. Fair enough.
