Kobe has the ability to be a top-ten defender, and that is why he consistently wins All-Defensive awards. Granted, he often reserves his energy on defense because he does so much on offense; that is why some perceive him to be a lackluster defender. Nevertheless, if the game is competetive in the fourth quarter, Kobe plays unrestrained and is a lockdown defender. Oh, I am aware that many good defenders are overlooked; Brewer, Sefolosha, Mbah a Moute, et al. You are preaching to the choir. |

Kobe is overrated on defense. Kobe is overrated period. People talk about him being better than Jordan. Really?
Kobe is not better than LeBron. Fact: Look at the Lakers prior to the Gasol trade. Garbage.
Kobe is overrated much like the rest of the Lakers.
