famous mouth Nick Wright recently stated on his podcast show that "Black Mamba" Kobe cannot enter the discussion of the best player in history.

Wright said: "Only six people (Jordan, James, Jabbar, Wilt Chamberlain, Magic Johnson and Bill Russell) are eligible to participate in the discussion of the best players in history. Everyone has a unique trait, they are indisputable in history's best in one aspect. If you are not the best in any aspect, how can you be the best in history? Kobe's brilliant achievements have not surpassed the peak of those six players, and those six are truly qualified to be called the best players in history."

Kobe Bryant is often hailed by the media as the closest player to Michael Jordan in NBA history. He has five championships and a very similar game style to Jordan, who even said that Kobe could beat him 1-on-1.
