    Who is the best basketball player?

    Who is the best basketball player, LeBron or Kobe? Well, it is official now. Everyone needs to stop asking that question. It is 100% clear Kobe is the best player in the NBA and will be for a few years to come. All the talk about this “King LeBron” needs to stop. Last time I checked, you need to do something amazing you get the name “King.” On a finally note, Kobe had 4 championship and LeBron has 0. Kobe is a finisher, LeBron is not.

    Lebron does not have an as good a supporting cast.

    Right now.
    Bynum>>>>Shag
    Gasol>>>>>Hickson
    Artest<<<<Lebron
    Kobe>>>>>Parker
    Fisher>>>>Mo WIlliams.

    Kobe didn't win without a really good team around him. A Championship team has more than just one great player.

    Shaq right now is barely an all-star. Gasol is an All-star.

    Look at Garnett. Without a good team he did not win a Championship. Comes to the Celtics with Ray(who had the same thing with Seattle) met Pierce who was also the same. and then they won a championship.

    Plus Let us look at who comes off the bench. Odom a starter(possible All-star) anywhere else come off the bench for the Lakers. Then The Cavs best is West maybe Anderson V.

    LOL .... you do realize that Lebron is still only 26 right ?

    he'll have a few championship before he's done

    I'd love to see Kobe win a championship with a shitty supporting cast , oh wait he cant , we saw that in previous years before last year

    The best player in the game right now is clearly LeBron. Kobe has lost a step. And although Kobe might be a better finisher, I've seen them both disappear in big games. That's why I always laugh when people say LeBron is or will be considered the GOAT.

    ... you're not disagreeing with anyone. The point was that superstars need good teammates to win... what are you trying to argue?

    The last I checked the Championship is a team accomplishment. Lebron is the statistical giant of the NBA right now in a Jordanesque manner. He's easily the best.

    Lebron's post season stats are quite impressive

    29.3 PPG 8.4RPG 7.6 APG


    you cant win championship on your own , although he almost did a few years ago

    lol this sentence is hilarious. I guess if you magically add one of the best players in the league to your team, they probably would win....

    People forget that Kobe carried some ridiculously bad Lakers teams to the playoffs in the post-Shaq, Pre-Gasol era.

    He won 45 games in the Western Conference with this supporting cast...

    Lamar Odom
    Kwame Brown
    Andrew Bynum (as a Rookie)
    Brian Cook
    Devean George
    Devin Green
    Jim Jackson
    Sasha Vujacic
    Luke Walton
    Aaron McKie
    Stanislav Medvidenko
    Chris Mihm
    Smush Parker
    Ronny Turiaf
    Laron Profit

    And you know what? That team lost two less games that year then the Cavs lost this year. You'd have a hard time finding an example of a guy doing more with less.
