The All-star game in 1998 featured a fun match-up between the great Micheal Jordan vs. the recently great Kobe Bryant.
I think people forget these two actually went head-to-head. I hear a lot of people claim Kobe is better than Jordan, but honestly, I think their memory has faded. You can watch these 2 clips of both of these guys going at it.
Now you can argue that Kobe was still new and fresh against a seasoned star as Jordan, but the same arguement can be said about Jordan being on the downside of his pinnacle.
I think the fact that Jordan is the best basketball player ever will always stand even against today's greats such as Kobe, Dirk, LeBron, Durrant, and all the others stars.
