20. The Great Kobe Debate

Conversation with Basketball Historian David Friedman

A bunch of different ways to evaluate a player, or a team, or to think about the game of basketball…

In Episode 17, David and I got off on a tangent about Kobe Bryant and decided to record a separate episode debating the merits of Bryant’s game.

David considers Bryant an all-time great, in his "pantheon” of great players

I think that Bryant is overrated and his teams won championships because of the productivity of his teammates.

Regardless of where you are in this debate I think you will enjoy two people analyzing the other’s position and offering differing ways on how to properly evaluate a player.

One note, the audio quality from David’s end is not up to the usual high standards. My apologies.

This is David’s third time on the podcast. You can listen to his previous episodes here and here and you can read his basketball work here.
