Kobe Bryant is the best player who doesn’t have a case for the goat.

I saw this idea on YouTube and wanted to see what reddit thinks, I think Shaq and Larry Bird need to be in the conversation as well. As good as Kobe is (rip mamba) in all his greatness it’s impossible to put him over people like Lebron, Jordan, Kareem etc. I personally have him 10th all time on my list. Shaq is also a player I think does not have a argument for the goat, as good as Shaq was I think you would be prettty hard pressed to find anyone who puts him over Wilt, or Kareem. Same thing with Larry Bird where even the most delusional Lebron haters will say he doesn’t compare to Lebron.
