Who is the more dangerous player in the post, Kobe or Lebron?
This isn't about who is the more skilled player, which is obviously Kobe, but who is more dangerous. I think it might be closer then most would think since Lebron is so big and is the far superior passer.

I don't watch that much of Miami but this is the best I have ever seen Lebron play with his back to the basket. It's hard to find highlights of him passing out of the post and hockey assists and stuff.

:facepalm Kobe and it's not even close.

Kobe developed his post game once his athleticism was gone, LeBron still has his. Of course as of now, Kobe has the better post up game but LeBron doesnt NEED one right now.
Re: Who is the more dangerous player in the post, Kobe or Lebron?
Kobe is just better at the post than Lebron ever was. The only thing Lebron has on Kobe is height and weight, because all he does is punish people in the post because hes so fast center cant guard him and so strong sf cant guard him either.
Re: Who is the more dangerous player in the post, Kobe or Lebron?
right now it is lebron. you have to double him or he will score pretty much every time. in the video in OPm you can see that he is doing it against paul george and not some small pg. when they double or triple him there, miami gets open 3s and given how good lebron is at passing over the head of big men, he clearly is the better choice. Both because of his own scoring and because he is a willing passer when double or triple teamed in post.

isn't the point to score?
Re: Who is the more dangerous player in the post, Kobe or Lebron?
Kobe Bryant. That man's footwork was insane. Unfortunately lebron will never reach that level of footwork or skill- meaning Kobe is a far more dangerous and potent scorer in the post.
Re: Who is the more dangerous player in the post, Kobe or Lebron?
Depends. Scoring? Kobe.
Ability to score or pass? Lebron.

I can't believe this is actually a thread.
It's not even close. It's like comparing Dwight in the post to Hakeem.
Re: Who is the more dangerous player in the post, Kobe or Lebron?
