I am curious to see what this sub thinks about this matchup. Usually, espn and other media sites put their names in the same tier in 7-10 range.

Who do you think is better between the two players? What about greater?

Bird have 3 Straight MVPs. Kobe only have 1 MVP.

Bird have 3 rings with 2 FMVP. Kobe have 5 rings with 2 FMVP.

But as for skills.

Kobe is the better scorer and defender. He also have the better work ethic. Bird is the better Shooter, Rebounder, and way better Passer.

But overall, who do you think is better and/or greater?

I love Kobe, but Larry Bird is one of 3 players not named michael Jordan that If there was an all time league draft and you had to draft a team that would win the championship among all timers and someone took him pick 1 i probably wouldn’t scoff at

If I was making an all time starting 5 I'd take KD over him. Not really relevant to the question though.
