Kobe Bryant is the best 19-year-old basketball player in the world. Michael Jordan is the best basketball player in the world.
Kobe has 1 1/2 years of NBA experience and one all-star appearance. Jordan has 12 1/2 years of NBA experience and 12 all-star appearances.
Comparing the two of them now is like comparing a new sports reporter to Jim Murray.
