Chris Bosh calls Kobe Bryant the ‘greatest player of my generation’

Chris Bosh called Kobe Bryant “the greatest player of my generation” in a radio interview on Friday.

“He’s the greatest player of my generation,” Bosh said, via ProBasketballTalk. “He was that guy after Mike that really just won, and he was about winning championships. And he really did it a young age. When they three-peated, he was 21, 22 years old. It was just amazing to see him climb up so high, so fast. They did have their struggles, but he was still a great player – one of the greatest I’ve ever seen, of course.”

Dwyane Wade recently said roughly the same thing about Bryant, and it’s interesting because both of these two played four years with LeBron James. It’s entirely possible that they consider James to be a part of a different, more recent era than Bryant, but it’s still interesting hearing Bosh and Wade’s take.
