科比的傳奇生涯

Kobe Bryant is better than Michael Jordan—at least as far as the NBAs all-time scoring list is concerned.

On Dec 14， 2014， the Los Angeles Lakers star reached 32，293 points in the second quarter of a game against the Minnesota Timberwolves at the Target Center， which allowed him to finally surpass Chicago Bulls legend Michael Jordan （32，292 points）. Now， Kobe has moved into the third place in career scoring， with Kareem Abdul-Jabbar （38，387 points） and Karl Malone （36，928 points） ahead of him.

The Timberwolves stopped the game， whose owner Glen Taylor presented Kobe with the game ball and a Lakers-heavy crowd gave a standing ovation. Kobe， with a big smile on his face， received hugs from teammates and the Timberwolves， and waved to the crowd.

Indeed， the milestone is no small feat for Kobe， as he forged his Hall of Fame career in Jordans shadow. Almost since the day Kobe entered the league in 1996 at the age of 18， everything about the two invited comparison， from their sizes （each 198cm） to the almost eerie similarities of the way they pump their fists after big shots. The debate has raged on whether Kobe can surpass Jordan all the time.

Kobe seemed to long for getting rid of these comparisons. “The thing that I always bristled at was the notion that I learned everything that I know from Michael，” Kobe told Bleacher Report.

However， his health issues got in the way. Kobe missed all but six games in 2013-14， first recovering from a torn Achilles and then suffering a season-ending knee injury.

Jordan shot a higher field goal percentage， won six titles to the five that Kobe has now and climbed past Wilt Chamberlain into third on the list at 1，039 games in 2003 compared to Kobes 1，269 then.

But Kobes competitiveness， tenacity and sheer will， is about as close as it gets to Jordan. “Just like weve never seen another player like Michael Jordan， we will never see another player like Kobe Bryant！” Lakers Hall of Famer Magic Johnson （Earvin Johnson） tweeted.

With two all-time greats （Jabbar and Karl Malone） still ahead of Kobe， whether he can continue to progress remains to be seen. It may be difficult for him to push even further， but hes certainly already entered the legendary territory.

科比·布萊恩特比邁克爾·喬丹更優(yōu)秀——至少就NBA個人職業(yè)生涯總得分榜而言是這樣的。

2014年12月14日，在美國目標中心球館里這位洛杉磯湖人隊的球星在對戰(zhàn)明尼蘇達森林狼比賽的第二節(jié)中，其NBA個人職業(yè)生涯總得分達到32，293分，這使他最終正式超越芝加哥公牛隊的傳奇球星邁克爾·喬丹（32，292分）。現(xiàn)在，科比已經上升至職業(yè)生涯歷史得分榜第三位，僅次于卡里姆·阿布杜爾-賈巴爾（38，387分）和卡爾·馬龍（36，928分）。

森林狼隊為他叫停了比賽，森林狼的大老板格倫·泰勒將這場比賽的用球送給了科比，而湖人式的歡呼聲更是響徹全場?？票让媛稜N爛笑容，與隊友和森林狼的隊員們一一擁抱，又向歡呼的人群揮手致意。

因為作為NBA名人堂的一員，科比一直在喬丹的光輝籠罩之下，所以對科比來說這次里程碑式的超越確實是個不小的成績。自1996年18歲的科比加入NBA以來，幾乎每件關于他與喬丹的事都會招致比較，從他們的身高（都是198厘米）到他們進球后近乎一致的揮拳慶祝的怪異姿勢。而科比能否超越喬丹的爭論更是一直以來的熱門話題。

擺脫這些比較似乎是科比長久以來的愿望?？票仍诮邮苊绹w育媒體Bleacher Report采訪時曾說：“我所學到的一切都來自邁克爾的這個觀點，總是讓我很不開心?！?/p>

然而，傷病問題讓他的愿望一拖再拖?？票仍?013-2014賽季先后因為跟腱撕裂與令他之后的整個賽季全部報銷的膝傷只打了6場比賽。

喬丹擁有更高的投籃命中率，截至2003年（退役前）他共出場1，039次，獲得6個NBA總冠軍，總得分排名超越威爾特·張伯倫躋身前三，而科比當時共出場1，269次，卻只拿到5個總冠軍。

但科比的競爭力、韌性以及意志都與喬丹相差無二。湖人的另一位名人堂成員魔術師約翰遜（埃爾文·約翰遜）曾在推特上寫到：“正如沒有第二個喬丹一樣，也沒有第二個科比?！?/p>

（在排行榜上）科比之前還有兩位籃球史上的傳奇前輩（賈巴爾和卡爾·馬龍），他能否繼續(xù)前進只能拭目以待。完成新的超越對他而言也許并非易事，但可以肯定的是他已經進入了傳奇領域。
