Jackson’s new book, “Eleven Rings: The Soul of Success,” addresses the MJ
-Kobe topic head on.
But the most interesting topic by far is his perspective on the differences
between MJ and Kobe:
“Michael was more likely to break through his attackers with power and
strength, while Kobe often tries to finesse his way through mass pileups,”
Jackson wrote. “Michael was stronger, with bigger shoulders and a sturdier
frame. He also had large hands that allowed him to control the ball better
and make subtle fakes.
“Jordan was also more naturally inclined to let the game come to him and
not overplay his hand, whereas Kobe tends to force the action, especially
when the game isn’t going his way. When his shot is off, Kobe will pound
away relentlessly until his luck turns. Michael, on the other hand, would
shift his attention to defense or passing or setting screens to help the
team win the game.”
Jackson’s most scathing observation of the two men involves the leadership
qualities they possessed, and in Kobe’s case did not possess, and what kind
of impact that had on their respective teams (and granted, Kobe was a
youngster on those Lakers teams with Shaquille O’Neal):
“One of the biggest differences between the two stars from my perspective
was Michael’s superior skills as a leader,” Jackson writes. “Though at
times he could be hard on his teammates, Michael was masterful at
controlling the emotional climate of the team with the power of his presence
. Kobe had a long way to go before he could make that claim. He talked a
good game, but he’d yet to experience the cold truth of leadership in his
bones, as Michael had in his bones.” |
