Lebron is closer to Jordan than Kobe.

[RoseCity07]

you are criticizing Kobe for losing a 3-1 lead against one of the GOAT offensive teams in the first round.. while propping up Lebron James who has lost TWO FINALS series after being up 2-1..??

Okay. Lebron isn't perfect but he lost in the NBA Finals. Not the first round. No excuses.

He lost in the NBA finals because he was playing with Prime Wade and Bosh instead of Smush Parker and Kwame Brown..

give Kobe prime Wade & Bosh in 06 and you can give him shit for losing, but are you seriously dumb enough to hold it against him that he lost to a great team when he had a terrible team himself?

Lebron's team was good enough to make the finals, where they were good enough to get a 2-1 lead TWICE, yet Lebron still lost TWICE in the the finals after being up 2-1..

so you are holding more against Kobe for losing with Kwame and Smush than you are holding against Lebron for losing with prime Wade & Bosh in one of the most embarrassing finals performances in history.. DAT LOGIC

OP needs to rid his eyes of LBJ semen.

Kobe and Bron are just about equal ALL-TIME, while Kobe plays a style more akin to Jordan.

Lets move on from the obvious. Clean your face though.

The Finals where Lebron lost with Wade and Bosh was their first year. They played against Dirk, who single handedly beat Durant, Westbrook, and Harden the series before. That was Miami's first year together. Wade also was not in his prime. His knee is f*cked up.

My point is not about winning, it's about how far Lebron took his team. Kobe was never good enough to carry bad player. Lebron has carried a team with Mo Williams as the second option. Kobe has relied heavily on starts for 100% of his Finals appearances. Lebron hasn't.

The interesting thing about Kobe is that he's the ONLY guy in the top 10 GOAT who didn't redefined their position OUTRIGHT:

MJ
Kareem
Wilt
Russ
Magic
Bird
Shaq
Duncan
Bron

ALL of these legends FLAT OUT redefined their positions. In Kobe's case, he was TOO SIMILAR TO MJ! Which on one hand is EPIC because MJ's the GOAT. And Kobe came the closest to duplicating his skillset. But u can't out MJ MJ. MJ broke the mold for that style of SG.

On the other hand, Bron totally redefined the SF position. Just like MJ totally redefined the SG position. In terms of being revolutionary, Bron is more similar to MJ than Kobe. But when it comes to GOAT status and killer instinct, Kobe IS STILL closer to MJ than Bron. But when it comes to perimeter players, Bron, Bird and Magic are in class by themselves in a sense. Because they can play the PF position and still dominate.

this place has really gone to shit in the past 2 years, I used to lurk a lot and while you had your fair share of trolls on each side at least they attempted to be intellectually honest most of the time

now you just have a bunch of teenagers throwing shit at a wall hoping something sticks, rep really needs to come back IMO, i noticed the trolling really took off when rep was taken away
