Give him time, 3 of Kobe's were freebies cause of Shaq...2 years in Miami two Finals appearances..he even took a team full of scrubs to the finals with the cavs, I'd love to see Kobe do that..Kobe's always had mad talent around him and the year he didn't he cried like a little ***** demanding a trade

That's it Rick's not gonna wanna be my buddy anymore after this thread

Naw, I enjoy giving Lebron fans crap! We will always still be buddies

As you stated Kobe won his championships because of Shaq which I don't doubt. Lebron never would have won that championship without Wade.

I admire Lebrons game! I just think the hype needs to calm down surrounding him because he has alot more to accomplish if he wants to be crowned King James.

Those people were way past their prime at that time except for pippen and Jordan

Past their prime? Everybody except for Bird were in their late 20's early 30s.

Kobe may have more but he doesn't buckle under the pressure. Thats a true champion

Lebron's 1 championship compared to Kobe's 5 championships and Jordans 6.

Lebron is going to need to step it up on his percentage you stated if he is going to reach their level.

as much as you Lakers fans would love to believe that, do some research..LBJ's last shot percentage is better then Kobe's and Kobe actually has more game losing shots then anyone in NBA history

Lebron has choked on more last minute shots in anyone in NBA history!

Kobe has D! He knows when you back off when needed!

Jordan will always be the greatest in my eyes. And i am a Duke fan.

Kobe? ok bro Great offensive player but that's about it..even though he chugs up what 30+ shots a game ? Kobe has no D whatsoever

I've got a question.

How come pro athletes are allowed to compete in Olympic sports like basketball and tennis, but pro boxers are not allowed?

Because the rookies would get their BLEEEEP knocked out by the pros......

Been watching basketball all my life. Die Hard Los Angeles Lakers fan! A few things:

The players today are pampered compared to the players of the Dream Team. I find it hard to believe any team today would play with as much physical presence and determination as the dream team did.

No doubt, Lebron is a dominating presence on the court, but he needs more maturity and experience if he will ever be half of what Jordan and Kobe are.

With that being said.... USA will win the gold this year. This is a dominating team for sure!

Kobe? ok bro Great offensive player but that's about it..even though he chugs up what 30+ shots a game ? Kobe has no D whatsoever

yes MJ was a more fierce competitor and had more offensive skills, but to say a better defender then LBJ, come on man ...Dude can cover every position on the court, i'd love to see MJ do that

Yes he was a great defender but better? please
