Kobe should just keep playing ball and not make comparison comments. I totally agree with MJ and Barkley.
A few days ago, Kobe Bryant was asked if the 2012 U.S. Olympic team stood a chance against the 1992 Dream Team. Not one to refuse a challenge, Kobe proclaimed that the current team would win in a close matchup. Two elder statesmen from the 1992 team, Michael Jordan and Charles Barkley, were not very happy with the comments. Jordan went so far as to say Kobe was not all that smart for saying such blasphemy.
Via Associated Press Jordan told The Associated Press Thursday that he laughed —“I absolutely laughed”— when hearing Bryant’s comments that the squad training in Las Vegas could take Jordan and company.
Jordan said there’s “no comparison” which team is better.
“For him to compare those two teams is not one of the smarter things he ever could have done,” Jordan said prior playing in a celebrity golf tournament in Charlotte.
Via ESPN "I just started laughing," Barkley said. "How old is Kobe Bryant? He's 34? And he's calling us old? At the time, we were only like 28, 29. Michael Jordan and me were the same age. We were both 29....

They just need to do the deal if they are going to do it because this back and foward crap is just sad. Also Laker fans welcome Bash with a beer. He can drink and drive in L.A. because he will be caught in traffic lol.

Both Jordan and kobe are trash talkers, they are both cocky, they are both competitive, and as much as I love magic, bird and jordan, I dont know if that team could keep up with the speed, and atleticism, of this one, people just hate to let go of the past, myself included, but things change, I personally like the 92 team better.

Is this show? Your kidding me right? Dude i will ride MJ's dyck till he busts. This is not about liking people, its about their capabilities. Personally they would destroy the current team. Other countires catching up? Still not enough to beat the 92 team.Yea i do fit that category because quite frankly Kobe just looking to stir crap. It just gives him more attention. Why not just concentrate on your team and let the past be past.

Sammy lol, you do this all the time, your a hot head bro, relax, as one hot head to another relax, you think I am singling you out and you dont bother to understand what I am saying you just get mad.... I believe you really truly believe the 92 team is better than this one, I disagree, but some people who think Jordan is god, will make it about JOrdan I guarantee you thats a big chunk of the reason the 92 team is untouchable by many...Some people will not let the past die so they hold on to the 92 team, I really believe you believe the 92 team was better, I dont think your being biased I think thats just your opinion, thats all I meant, but I disagree with you, no reason to get punchy.

My point is, to some people it is about JOrdan, I am not saying you, I think to you its truly about what team is better, some people will choose todays team because they are lebron dick ryders, which is stupid, I am truly choosing what team I think could win, I dont think this team coudl blow out the 92 team or anything like that, but I think they could beat the 92 team in a 7 game series, lets not forget the 92 team was also older, magic and bird were at the end of their careers, especially bird he was finished, thats partly why I picked this team.

Hahahah naw iam not a hot head with you dude. Maybe perceived that way. Our days of that ended moons ago.lol Thats only Bird Magic and maybe Mullin being the old cats. Perhaps we should review the average age. I don't know Show, i see far more talent then compared to today.

Well in my opinion kobe and JOrdan would have a good battle, and Jordan arguably was the best player on the 92 team at the time, and Kobe isn't the best player on this team, hes like the 3rd best player, Bird was just too old for anything, he had a huge back problem that caused him to retire by that time, barkley was a hell of a player but hes no match for lebron or durant, magic is a unique player he would give anhyone trouble, you have bigs on the 92 team that can offer some problems for todays teams, the 92 team would have to slow it down and pound it in, because if they run they play into the hands of this team, it would be interesting to watch thats for sure.

By the way sammy, your a hot head but I gotta admit I love watching you go at it when someone says something to you lol, I chuckle when someone says something bad about you cause I alway say to myself, here we go lol.....I think the jamison signing is good, lakers are finally paying attention to the bench, unless jamison is part of a bigger plan to trade gasol for someone else, but I doubt it, I think lakers are too focused on howard.
