Who is to say Kobe Bryant isn't going to be better than Michael Jordan? Let's get that out on the table right now. He's a lot better than Jordan was at the same age."  says former Seattle coach Paul Westphal. "Kobe has a sense of the game similar to Michael in playmaking ability and skill," said Lakers coach Phil Jackson. What does Bryant think?  "It does bother me somewhat," Bryant said Sunday. "I want to be identified as my own player. There'll never be another Michael Jordan. Michael Jordan is the greatest player ever. No one can fill his shoes."
