Prime Kobe or Current Lebron

[GreatestLaker]

The issue is not as easy as some of you are making it out to be. Let's not forget that Kobe was at one point the best player in the league. Let's also not forget that in his prime he had no weaknesses in his offensive repertoire, will we ever be able to say the same for Bron?

In terms of skill? Sure. There was nothing he couldn't do on either end. But his shot selection and his overall decision making at times was a weakness of his. That's what stopped him from being Jordan.

I wish I can smack everyone saying LeBron was better than Prime Kobe

 

[Ben.]

I think we've seen enough of LeBron to know he's in no way shape or form better than Prime Kobe. Hell, Young Kobe would've been the leader of the heats if you put him as the 4th player.

Naw, more people here have bias towards Kobe. You could say I do towards LeBron but I can say LeBron not close to MJ all time wise (neither Kobe) and other unbiased things. Plus a lot here think Kobe is close to Jordan.

It's all good though, I like to see the fukkery on the sports section bcuz this not a serious place to discuss all that.

Lebron is an all time great but you can't compare him to Kobe

If lebron was nice like that he would have songs dedicated to him like Kobe

Prime Kobe or Jerry West seem to be more of an interest topic instead.

It's not bias if you've seen them both play.

Kobe's only close to Jordan with regards to talent/skill level. The few things he lack are accolades and slightly better decision making. Aside from that Kobe is one of the greatest weapons the sport has ever seen. LeBron is great, but Prime Kobe would've ate his lunch.

Only thing stopping him from "being Jordan" is that his name is Kobe Bryant and he only played 7 years with a top 50 player of all time instead of 10 like Jordan did.......plus he plays in the West

nikka shut up

It's true, whenever Kobe has to carry a team by himself it's been awful and he ends up wanting to be traded. Lebron takes Gibson and Gooden to the finals. As far as actual team impact Lebron is better. You guys are in awe of Kobe's offensive prowess...that doesn't lead to wins.

He was easily better than Kobe at that point much more impactful overall and a far better defensive player at that point

Yall gonna bring up Rings but you put Bron on the '09 Lakers they destroy the West

hey look guys - It's another one of these fatherless "sports" fans that go by "Cleveland Cavs" fans now. Been popping up around here these last few days.

Still tears me up that Prime Kobe had no squad . Kobe truly had to learn the hard way that you can't do it all on your own. My nikka was literally unstoppable. The shots he used to make............. Homie hitting left handed fadeaway corner threes and sh1t. Kobe the Don. Never retire Bean. We need

shyt is a sports travesty. That type of display should've been on the biggest stage.

this is truth right here. I mean, when you really really take a look back, the East was just as strong a conference as the West back then. Maybe even tougher.
