Anyone else tired of Lebron mania?

I think we can all agree, once LeBron gets taken out this year, it's Kobe who won another year in the LeBron vs. Kobe argument. And if the Lakers win the title this year, look for Kobe to win it next year. If the Lakers win, I see a repeat next year, Kobe will finish his career with 5 rings, and in 3 years LeBron will surpass Kobe, so then we can hear LeBron vs. ______.

^why's that?!? ???
that's what i still don't get, i didn't understand it from the first time the "Kobe vs. LeBron" arguement was raised.
just because the Lakers do better that means Kobe > LeBron?
yeah sure Lakers > Cavs, i don't know many who would disagree that; but what does that have to do with Kobe or LeBron?
lets say the Lakers take there series & the Cavs pull a miracle comeback, would you say Bynum > Dwight because the Lakers went farther?
if anyone is really that deep into denial where they think if the Cavs sat LeBron & the Lakers sat Kobe & the two teams played & you honestly thought the Cavs stood a chance, your nuts.
i would bet over a thousand dollars on the Lakers (w/o Kobe) against the Cavs (w/o LeBron); fact is LeBron does more than Kobe with less help around him.
it has nothing to do with who wins rings & shit; otherwise i guess Robert Horry is one of the best PF's ever lmao. :laugh:
"THE" MoSav:
i didnt hear any of this during rds 1 and 2. Magic are just a more complete team deal with it

Simple, to be the man, you have to beat the man, or wait until they retire like everyone did with MJ... lol
This year, the Lakers beat the Cavs twice, so they went 2-0 against them. The only reason LBJ got the MVP this year is because the Lakers haven't been playing good basketball since just before Bynum came back, so the Cavs surged late and the Lakers fell off and the Cavs ended in first place. Like Steve Nash, LBJ was the second best player, but many people that have the MVP vote aren't fans of Kobe, so just like MJ at the end of his career, usually the second best player gets the MVP trophy. The NBA has been pushing a Kobe/LeBron finals, and right now it ain't happening.
Side note, this article is very true about both. It's neither pro Kobe or pro LeBron, or anti either, but it mentions how we put an unrealistic standard on both just because we are looking for our next MJ.

^i feel with what your saying, but i still have to stand by my thoughts on your team shouldn't decide how good you are.
i'd label Iverson as one of the best, for those who don't agree you can say Karl Malone.
no rings, but still both are concidered two of the best.
btw, that's a dope article. ;) 8)
