    @Big Mitch I don't think he's obsessed with them on like Russ' level, but he has a deep understanding of the advanced ones. I've seen him come back into a blowout in the 4th to get a triple double this year, Kobe on the other hand takes a seat in the 4th after dropping 60 through 3. For me Bron won't pass up MJ Magic or Kobe unless he gets 5 rings. I think he knows that too, which is why he seemed to have a mini mid life crisis a few weeks back blasting his front office to find a playmaker after hosing ATL for Korver lol.

    Also really don't have an issue with someone going with Duncan over Kobe, I just think Kobe is more talented and brought more to the court. He was at his peak for much longer than Tim was as well.

    I'd be willing to bet $100 that LeBron go down as better than Kobe. As a matter of fact, I'd prolly say he's already better. As would a lot of ppl.

    Manipulation. Winning plays right there. You could look at it either way.

    Doing anything it takes to win and not giving a s--- about the backlash he's gonna keep getting from flopping. You can call him a hoe all you want, doesn't change the fact that he's better than Kobe and arguably #2 behind MJ.

    As of today Kobe has the stronger resume, you can say LeBron eventually will have a better one, but until then he's behind Kobe. A lot can happen from now until Bron's retirement.

    LeBron has a stronger resume now and I will back this up till the death of me. It's not even THAT close either. If you're saying he can't be better until he has 5 rings, that's ridiculous. CP3 can't be better than Tony Parker cuz 4 rings? Jordan can't be better than Horry or Russell? I get that it's a combination of rings, talent, and other accolades and those might not be the best comparisons/examples, but outside of rings and maybe killer instinct (LeBron Has become a killer in the 4th these past couple of years) LeBron takes the cake in everything.

    ppl like this "real man" image that kobe and MJ had. They act like those two never whined, complained, or did anything to lower their "real man" image. Meanwhile its lebron thats married to his highschool sweetheart and paying college tuition for 1100 kids. Sure he flops here and there, sure he complains about calls. But this dude is flawless on and off the court. I like how hes been callin ppl out lately. Put some respeck on his name

    I don't hate Lebron as much since he went back to Cleveland. But between the 5 times the Celtics played him in the playoffs and "The decision", I'm not his biggest fan.

    Will never down play him as an all time great though and one of the best ever. But f--- that guy.
