Okay dude. You asked for it. Kobe was no where near as clutch as MJ. Kobe is great, yes, but MJ hit the shots that matters. That isn't luck. That's skill and mindset.
Oh, MJ can dunk...
One for your boy Kobe...
MJ's top 50 plays of all time...
And when it counts in the finals?
And now you thought I was just gonna post some clips huh? Well here is where I put the debate to rest...
You want some stats?
30 point games (Regular Season)
Michael Jordan -- 562 (Most Ever)
Kobe Bryant -- 408
40 point games (Regular Season)
Michael Jordan -- 173 (Second Most Ever Behind Wilt)
Kobe Bryant -- 117
50 point games (Regular Season)
Michael Jordan -- 31 (Second Most Ever Behind Wilt)
Kobe Bryant -- 24
60 point games (Regular Season)
Kobe Bryant -- 5
Michael Jordan -- 4
So Kobe had one more 60+ point game. That's it. MJ dominated the rest of this stat.
...............................................................................................................................................
Now lets go to where it counts... the play offs...
30 point games (Playoffs)
Michael Jordan -- 109 (Most Ever)
Kobe Bryant -- 88
40 point games (Playoffs)
Michael Jordan -- 38 (Most Ever)
Kobe Bryant -- 13
50 point games (Playoffs)
Michael Jordan -- 8 (Most Ever)
Kobe Bryant -- 1
60 point games (Playoffs)
Michael Jordan -- 1 (Only Player Ever)
Kobe? Never.
...............................................................................................................................................
Now lets compare when it REALLY REALLY COUNTS IN THE FINALS!
30 point games (Finals)
Michael Jordan -- 23 (Second Most Behind Jerry West)
Kobe Bryant -- 13
40 point games (Finals)
Michael Jordan -- 6 (Second Most Behind Jerry West)
Kobe Bryant -- 1
50 point games (Finals)
Michael Jordan -- 1 (Tied with 4 other players in history)
..........................................................................................................................................
Okay, so now you might say, well how many games did they play? MJ played many more right?
Career Regular Season Games
MJ - 1072
Kobe - 1280
Career Playoff Games
MJ - 179
Kobe - 220
Career Finals Games
MJ - 35
Kobe - 38
...............................................................................................................................................
Okay, so lets dissect these stats a bit now...
In 108 less regular season games, MJ scored...
30 or more points 154 more times
40 or more points 57 more times
50 or more points 7 more times
In 41 less playoff games, MJ scored....
30 or more points 21 more times
40 or more points 25 more times
50 or more points 7 more times
In 3 less finals games, MJ scored...
30 or more points 10 more times
40 or more points 5 more times
50 or more points 1 time and Kobe never did.
If that is not dominating, I don't know what is...
Oh yeah, lets add some more names to that denial list
Dominique Wilkins. No Ring
Craig Ehlo. No Ring
Mark Price. No Ring
Dan Majerle. No Ring
Reggie Miller. No Ring
Derreck Coleman. No Ring
Chris Mullin. No Ring
Shawn Kemp. No Ring
Grant Hill. No Ring
Alonzo Mourning. No Ring during MJ's play
The list goes on and on...
Oh and one more name on that denial list...
You.

Have we ended this debate yet?
