Kobe Bryant wasn't as athletic as Tracy McGrady? If two people are claiming this, maybe I should go back and watch some Tracy McGrady videos, because I did see enough of Kobe to conclude that he was pretty darned athletic.

Oh, no doubt! Kobe was incredibly athletic. But T-Mac was even more so.

The main difference is that while Kobe squeezed out every bit of his athletic abilities, T-Mac coasted a lot, especially on defense. But watch videos of both in their prime, particularly of their first step. IIRC, T-Mac was quicker. He was also able to jump higher. Also, he was taller and longer than Kobe. If he had Kobe's will, work ethic, and relentless drive for improvement, he would've been the greatest of all time.
