How can Kobe be better than LeBron James When Lebron does everything better.......proof inside

[Prodyson]

Bron already has just as many superstar seasons as kobe tho 01-13 for kobe 05- current for bron and his nunbers are still better in every category......he is just a better player than dude

"Superstar seasons" is something made-up and would be subjective. The best stat to use would be career stats. And Bron's career isn't over. Ya'll need to stop just making stuff up.

Furthermore... stats still don't tell the whole story anyway.

1. They play different positions
2. Their roles on their teams are completely different
3. Their competition was completely different

You can't just cherry pick one thing and think it proves your argument.

Their peers pick Kobe

So this how you get 8k in the red

Its the IDGAF attitude and 1 on 1 game from Kobe that a lot of people seem to value in the debate. I have them both in the top 10 with LeBron ahead. 1 v 1 skillset is also usually the "eye-test" for most people and Kobe is ahead of LeBron as a 1 on 1 player so theres that. Even the shots that he misses are sometimes so even his misses leave an impact on the viewer. I just think LeBrons impact on winning is greater than Kobes. He missed the playoffs in his prime. To me when you rank GOATS, thats a big detractor. At least get the 8th seed. LeBrons timid mind frame shows at strange times which people can see from him. Then he has big time pressure games where he seems invincible. (19 - 40 point playoff games 5 - 40 point Final's games)

 

[O.T.I.S.]

Only thing Lebron truly does better is lose...

Lebron stans got to be the most pathetic stans in sports right now.

This nikka needs 2 all-stars in the east EVERYTIME just to BARELY win anything and all you clown hop to is "stats"

Theres a reason why most basketball peers and legends choose Kobe over stat-whores


And OP, stick to making chatty patty threads in TLR. Sports threads isn't your thing

bron stans in a pro Kobe thread:
bu, but, but, he's retired, stop living in the past, you kobe stans are pathetic.


bron stans in a negative Kobe thread :

 

[Ben.]

OP it doesn't matter if Bron clearly has a better peak/prime. played better in the playoffs, elimination games, game 7s. Has more MVPs and FMVPs

Only thing that matters is the opinion of his peers my guy

I keep seeing this post. He missed the playoffs once in his prime, and that was due to a shoulder injury he got when the lakers were the 5 seed at the time.

People want to discredit kobe, but lack the critical thinking ability to do so.

Wade and Bosh were both injured during his first ring yet he still won. You could easily say that Kobe needed a HOF Big Man or a GOAT coach to win ANY rings. He was getting ass-smashed by Steve Nash till he got Pau and those Suns are a much much much shyttier version of the Warriors that Lebron BARELY bear.

If I put Bosh and Wade's playoff numbers during their first two rings against Pau and Odom's first two, it shows they had similar output from their 2nd and 3rd options.

There isn't a single team that Lebron lost to that Kobe would have beaten if you replaced him with Lebron. Put Kobe with the same Cavs Lebron had and they lose against the Warriors in all 3 finals.

Put Kobe on those Heat team and he can't replicate what Lebron did for that Heat team's rings (Size, hyper efficiency, defensive versatility, rebounding, etc).

I don't get why you shytting on Lebron for losing against teams that Kobe would also lose against if he had the same team Lebron did lmao

LeBron is the better player. Even the Kobe stans know this.

Kobe however is the better scorer. I say this simply because he can score in more ways than LeBron. LeBron is the better overall player and makes his teammates better. That part of the argument shouldn't really be debatable.

 

[fifth column]

They play different positions

Terrible thread by a terrible poster

 

[DonKnock]

What about all the players and coaches who think that too? I guess they're stans too?

GODBE

Players value "getting buckets" disproportionately to other skills.

Players always speak highly of guys who get buckets. Melo, T-Mac, Iverson, Kyrie, Jamal Crawford, Joe Johnson, Lou Will, etc.

Look who the rookies just picked as their player to have the best career Jayson Tatum. What does Jayson Tatum do? Gets buckets. Look who they picked as the likely rookie of the year last year: Kris Dunn; the guy who had to play 1 on 1 games for money just to get by as a kid.

Players don't get inspired to get up early in the morning to go work on rebounding, boxing out, and screen setting. They don't post IG videos of themselves working on getting around a screener properly or working on their defensive slide.

It's the least surprising thing in the world that they would prefer the one that had a perpetual green light.

Their win percentage was slightly better without him that year.

He missed 14 games and they were 6 and 8 without him .428 win%

He played 68 games and they were 28 and 40 with him .411 win%
