    he’s a better facilitator, don’t forget he MADE that team. He trusted his teammates, facilitated their scores, and got them all the way to the finals. Passing isn’t all about APG, its about how well you get your players involved. Somethin Lebron has trouble with

    to be honest, neither…. but I’d rather face a guy that has some sort of weakness even if I can’t exploit it because he is still way better!

    I respect your …
    I respect your rationality and the fact that you aren’t biased but stats don’t prove who’s the better team or player because anybody can’t beat anybody on any given night… it depends who wants…
    Kobe isn’t better than Lebron because he has better accomplishments or because when they match up 1 on 1 in games, Lebron usually gets burned(although that’s a great case to make LOL) Kobe is better than Lebron because there is no weakness in his game… Kobe Bryant is the best overall player today!

    yea jacob i was gonna say that…wen lebron is driving to the rim there’s not alot of people who are gonna stop him…but kobe is a better shooter and defender….but if it was up to me and i had to pick one of them for my team..i would pick lebron only because he makes his whole team better and took them to the finals with a bunch of average players

    I think Kobe Bryant …
    I think Kobe Bryant is overall a better player and shooter. However, Lebron is just tremendous when it comes to attacking the rim. Lebron is not to far behind though. Let’s compare the 2007-08 NBA season: Lebron James- 30 ppg, 7.2 apg, 1.8 spg, 7.9 rpg, and 3.40 turnovers. Kobe Bryant-28.3 ppg, 1.8 spg, 5.4 apg,6.3 rpg, and 3.13 turnovers. This shows that Lebron had a more efficient season than Kobe Bryant in ppg,apg, and rpg. Kobe is the best now, but Lebron is coming!
