Kobe was a part of 5 championship teams, yet was only MVP of 2.

Lebron has been the MVP of all 3 championships he's won, putting together the greatest Finals performance in history this season and arguably should have been the MVP last season in a losing effort.

Kobe is an awesome sidekick, but he's not The Man. That would be Lebron.

It's not about personal accolades.....that's what you're missing. I'm sure LeBron would trade spots with Kobe because it's not guaranteed he'll get anymore.

LeBron is a hybrid of Magic and Pippen. Kobe is the closest thing to MJ.

If James had played with Shaq? He'd be a sidekick also.
If James played with Shaq, he'd of still been the leader on the court without question.

Lebron is more similar to those two in terms of playing style, yes. However, he's significantly better than both of them individually. Kobe is not MJ. MJ never took a backseat to any player on any team, just like Lebron. Kobe, not so much.

MJ never played with Shaq. Shaq made the Triangle offense work. If MJ had played with Shaq.....it would have been both of them making it work.

Weren't you one of the one's threatening a massive trolling when the Cavs lost?

With the mountains of anti-Cavs shit that you and others have spewed over the entirety of the season... we can have at least a few days of this.

Deal with it.


Rule is trolls need to at least be entertaining.

Uh, it is about personal accolades. Lebron would like to have 5 rings, sure. That has nothing to do with him still being better than Kobe. More Finals MVPs, more regular season MVPs. He's better, plain and simple.

I don't disagree, but Shaq never wins the Finals MVP 3 times over Jordan. That just simply didn't happen with MJ.

LeBron also has a better career scoring average & more rebounds, assist, steals, blocks & better FG %. But yeah...Kobe's better.:pound:#'s don't lie...

LeBron: 27.2 ppg, 7.2 rebs, 6.9 asts, 1.7 stls, 0.8 blks, .498%
Kobe: 25.0 ppg, 5.2 rebs, 4.7 asts, 1.4 stls, 0.5 blks, .479%


I'd put LeBron in my starting 5 over Bird. But nobody in their right mind would pick Kobe over MJ for a starting 5. I don't even have Kobe as the greatest Laker ever, for me that's Magic. And I'd put KAJ ahead of him as well.
