Ok ramprasad...points noted!!! For ur kind information, kobe has already surpassed Barkeley and Pippen..no comparison. Jordon..i m a Jordon fan so i dont like to compare. They both r the greatest!!! I like Mavricks too..i hope they beat the hell out of the Spurs. i think if they play good D and efficient Offense, they have everything else to beat the Spurs..afterall, spurs is all banged up this year...Parker can have his 40 points..stop inconsistent Duncan and Manu.. Go Lakers!!!
