    Kobe and Lebron

    Watching D Wade bailout Lebron time and time again. Lebron choking in every clutch 4th quarter situation. Missed free throws, bad fouls, missed layups. Watching an aged Kobe Bryant and a Lebron James in his prime is night and day in Kobe's favor.

    Give me all the stats you want. I won't care unless i'm playing fantasy.

    He also had 40 points and the winning block of the game. Kobe turns the ball over a lot yes. Maybe it's the multiple injuries in his hand causing him to not have a good grip on the ball? idunno.

    All I know is the guy wins and has a competitive nature and determination that Lebron doesn't.

    Look i'll be the first to tell you i'm a Laker homer. I have 24 in my name for god sakes.

    But I honestly see these two as completely different species.

    Lakers have played more games than anyone this season. Their schedule has been packed. Teams with lighter schedules had the luxury of more practice time in between games coming off a short training camp. Lets look at the wins that matter.

    The only time Lebron ever won anything he was on a USA team lead by Kobe Bryant

    there are obvious differences between lebron and kobe
    kobe is a scorer and lebron is not
    but lebron is still the best player in the nba

    Sitting and waiting? I talk shit about Lebron all the time lol. I posted this before the game was in overtime.

    Lebron is the greatest athlete in the NBA. Kobe is the greatest basketball player in the NBA. that's the difference.

    Sorry buddy, but the "best player" doesn't disappear when it matter's most. The best player doesn't choke every fukkin' time the game is on the line. It's a shame people tend to get blinded by LeBrons athletic ability & padded stats & seem to give him a pass everytime he chokes away late games.

    LeBron is the most talented player in the league hands down but he is far from the best player in the league. Until he manages to figure out the last 30 seconds of tight games this will always be the case.
