Kobe > Lebron

He demanded the ball in crunch time

Probably also would have been smart enough to step up on durant

I will accept apologies until midnight

Kobe would hit the game winning shot there with the game on the line.

The problem is that if you replace LeBron with Kobe, they're not even in the game at crunch time.

Except for that time in 2010, when he took a team with one other all star to the title against Bostons 3 Hall of Famers

LeBron would rather be liked by his teammates. Kobe didnt give a fuck. He wanted to win.

Other than Lebron being a better regular season and playoff performer, sure, Magic is better than Lebron.

different players. magic was a playmaker

lebron a scorer, until the game is on the line, then he becomes a distributor

one player was a winner, the other calls himself "the King"

And you're full of shit. Lebron is 12th all-time in assists. If you think Lebron made the wrong play by passing it to one of the best 3 point shooters of all-time for an open look, you just don't get basketball.

He had his open look, about 5 feet away

Hall of Famers and guys who name themselves the "King" do not defer to JR fucking Smith

But Kobe was an asshole for demanding the ball when the game was on the line.

Wait. I thought lbj's teamates were horrible and he did it all himself. He has one of the best 3 point shooters of all time on his team? Who knew?

You did no such thing. You made a statement. You provided no facts. By the way, thanks for the space in your head.

I'll just keep this real short for you.

Regular Season PER:
Magic - 24.1
Lebron - 27.6

Playoff PER:
Magic - 23.0
Lebron - 27.8

Not only is Lebron better in both, he actually performs better in the Playoffs than he does in the regular season, unlike Magic who's performs worse in the playoffs. And you're not in my head, I just wanted to call you out for being wrong is all.

But it's okay that Micheal deferred to Paxson and Kerr? lol.

So that is all that matters in the NBA now? Ok. If you say so.

different players

they played defense in the 80's. Magic was a playmaker, not a scorer

Without Magic, LeBron is a bouncer at a nightclub

Yeah and he created him a wide open look, and he missed. With that said his supporting cast is not good enough to beat this Warriors team. But it's still a good cast.

take the layup, the inevitable touch foul. thats an easier three than relying on a clown like JR Smith
