The guy who ranks top 20 in points (8th), assists (13th) and steals (20th).

The guy who won 4 MVP's.

The athletic freak.

The greatest since MJ.

kobe is literally shit by comparison

Lifelong Boston fan here


lebron is 1000% better

fuck kobe he's shit

Kobe is more offensively skilled and clutch but that's it. Lebron has

Kobr is barely top 5, if that.

This man is afraid of greatness. he is comfortable where he is. no hustle. sad.

as opposed to choking the most you can so Wade can't win MVP

>>74162340

LeBeta can go choke on a bag of dicks.

They play different positions and have completely different playstyles, how can you compare them

>>74163559
Thank you! It always pisses me off when statsfags compare fundamentally different positions in basketball, football etc. All those Duncan/Kobe comparisons were cancer.

>>74163644
It's even worse when it comes to players of differents era

This man is a walking meme

LeBron is the most physically gifted player, but Kobe is a lot more fun to watch.

MGK is more Cleveland than lebron could ever dream of being, he won one for him, not the city

Really tough call here. Made me think

That's much better than 5 rings, only 2 final mvps, and 1 mvp

Lebron needs to win 2 more rings before he can be in the discussion.

>>74164402
>That's much better than 5 rings

You can't be this retarded buddy.

Kobe shits on LeBrick skill wise and is a much more fluid athlete. Easily the more entertaining player.

LeBron is only really capable of charging into the paint and whining to the refs. He's also got the charisma of bologna sandwich. The NBA is garbage now anyway. I really don't watch it anymore

>makes the finals 6 years in a row
This is what did it for me, that's incredible.

I just hated him when he went to Miami.

LeBron carried Tyronn Lue to a ring in his first year coaching against the best regular season team of all time, and the offensive set was for LeBron to iso the majority of the time, meanwhile he always defends the best offensive player, so the entire game was in LeBron's hands every game.

Kobe barely won against much lesser teams and with Phil fucking Jackson in his prime and always had an elite counterpart or two. He never won when he was supposed to actually play defense

LeBron is way better and it's not remotely close.

always funny to meet that kobe stans bring up Ray Allen's 3 yet ignore all those shots. Kobe could easily have 3 less rings if the defenses just grabbed those boards

You're right. Kobe was about to lose before the finals.

Kobe's never had a shot as big as LeBron's jumper in game 7 to put them up 4.

Are we really going to pretend that Kobe didn't play on some of the most stacked teams ever? And he still almost chucked them out of titles. He lucked out by being with one of the best organizations in sports

>debating second best.
Lol

>Le we need more halp man


it's Kobe and it's not even close. I'd debate this further but I'm older than half this board and I've watched way more basketball than you so my opinion is worth more than yours, shut the fuck up about this bullshit argument when Jordan is better than both by miles and leaps and bounds.

>>74166469
>>Le we need more halp man
>It's Kobe

that's true, considering he was about to force a trade to Chicago until they got Pau

>>74165527

This. LeBron is easily the best player in the league.... Also has an incredibly large vagina and CAN'T MAKE HIS FUCKING FREE THROWS WHY THE FUCK CAN'T HE GO 2 FOR 2 EVER

>>74162400
Could be
Even if I excused him the last finals cause he was injured he'd have to win about 2 more championships to even be mentioned as an all time great

kobe?

i like kobe more than lebron but lebron is/was way better
only thing kobe has over him is rings, and that's a team accomplishment
