Hall of Fame coach Phil Jackson has revealed the difference
between legendary players
Michael Jordan and
Kobe Bryant.
Both are renowned as the greatest players in the history of
the NBA because of their influential performance. Chicago Bulls player Coby
White was recently quoted in a report where he stated that he had a chance to
speak to Jackson who highlighted what was the difference between both players.
"Because I know Kobe really tried to emulate Mike,
MJ," he said. "The main thing he said was that Kobe didn't have a
conscience and Michael Jordan did. Basically he said if after the game Mike
wasn't 50 percent from the field, he would kind of be disappointed. Kobe could
go 7-for-25 and he really didn't care."
Jordan had a fabulous career in every manner where he ended
up registering more than 30,000 points. His best season was in 1986-87 where he
registered 3041 points. He finished 11 seasons as the leading points scorer in
the NBA.
On the other hand, Bryant ended up registering more points
than Jordan as he finished his career with 33,643 points. His best season was
in 2005-06 where he registered 2,832 points for the Los Angeles Lakers. He
finished four seasons as the leading points scorer.
