9:34 pm

9:36 pm
following a slump in the previous four games. >> meantime this time tomorrow night, the lakers and magic tangle in the nba finals. players refer to it as another game. that's hardly the case in this case. one win could change the legacies of kobe and phil. >> for kobe bryant, game four wasn't exactly vintage kobe. he missed 20 shots but still ended up with 24 points. i'm mark jones. welcome back to espn continuing coverage from the am way arena in orlando. guys, kobe bryant on the brink of his fourth nba title. the big picture, if he's successful in his quest, what does it mean for his legacy? >> in my view, his legacy is
9:37 pm
intact. if he wins one more championship, in my book, it doesn't boost him any further. in my mind, kobe bryant is one of the best players of his era. he came out of high school, done tremedly well in a big market, and for the most part stayed out of trouble. in my mine, he doesn't leap any further on the depth chart. >> he may not have had too much to gain, but there was a tremed amount for kobe bryant to lose. that would mean three finals in which he didn't grab the larry o'brien trophy. when you compare that to michael jordan, he wouldn't have allowed that to happen. kobe's best can be better than michael jordan's best, but also his worst the worst. now he can stop the losing
9:38 pm
streak. that says, you can't take anything away from him. you look at what he's accomplished. what do you mean his worst worst? >> some of the shots he hit at the end of games, michael not capable of making those shots. michael wouldn't get in the position to have to make those tough shots either. i don't think michael would have a 20 miss game in his final performance. >> kobe had a benefit of a blueprint for success. michael jordan set that tone. kobe's mannerisms and the way he's conducting himself on the basketball court, that was set. >> i don't know how much is set for phil jackson because he is a
9:39 pm
unique coach to hand out books for player that is play for thim. he is on the cusp of his 10th nba title. what would it mean to his legacy? >> same for kobe bryant. it doesn't change it. >> i couldn't be a rooky. i think veterans respond to phil jackson in a great way. he thinks out of the box. the book giving, understanding guys on a personal level. not a lot of people think phil jackson is a great coach, but in my opinion he is because he understands how to manage humungous ego-s. >> also, you take the bulls and laker's team and he hadn't had the dominant player.
9:40 pm
it's an unconventional way the way he won his first six championships in chicago. the second group had a different cast. you had kobe and shaq and now this kobe led team in 2009. the variety of ways he's been able to win, and done it in an unconventional way. he's not a part of the coaching fraternity. >> if you play for phil jackson, you have to learn to meditate or you don't make the traveling squad, right? >> we'll see how they make out sunday at 7:30 eastern time, game five. will the magic keep their season alive? and this reminder, espn your place for complete coverage of
