Not sure what's unfair tbh, Wizards' Jordan wasn't very good. Wizards weren't bad purely because of Jordan and the Lakers won't be bad purely because of Kobe, they just don't have a good team around Kobe.
Whether Kobe will be similar to that Jordan or not, we'll see. We can only guess right now. Who knows, maybe Kobe is among the huge Achilles success stories. I'd bet not, and I expect Bosh to be a better overall player than Kobe this year. I think there's a lot of Kobe mysticism going on; Bird has that aura too, and Achilles still screwed him up. Achilles injuries tend to push a player down a tier. But, there have been a few very positive examples, so who knows.
