Well, it's hard to have a discussion with someone who doesn't know his sports history and sounds racist to boot. I think if you'll do a review of who Chamberlain played against, it wasn't small white guys. Chamberlain averaged over 50 points and 25 rebounds per game that year.

He was just a giant amongst them in those days. It's always hard to compare eras. One just has to look at the era and see how an individual compares to that era. I'm not saying Kobe isn't a great player. Whether he will reach Chamberlain's status remains to be seen. Kobe's a shooter. Chamblerlain was a scorer and a rebounder and I don't think opposing players liked to challenge him defensively. He was worth more to whichever team he was on than Kobe is. I don't think there's an argument there.
