Kobe is great in this era. and you can compare because the talent level in every single sport now is greater than it was in the past. fact

I believe the talent level now compared to when Jordan played in his prime is much greater. Look at who Jordan faced in the finals.. only once did he play a team with more than one great player on it. The Celtics this year could have beaten any of those teams and possibly even Jordan. Whoever said the defense is worse now must be joking. There are plenty of lockdown defenders that Jordan would have had to go through if he played now.
