LeBron is CURRENTLY closer to the likes of Melo, Wade, CP3, etc. than he is to Kobe, Jordan, Bird, etc....said that many times and it still stands. LeBron has a ways to go until he can seriously be mentioned under the same breath as Kobe.

I personally still don't see Kobe in the same league as MJ, but with a few more great seasons he'll be CLOSE. I know you don't want anyone to be near Kobe, but Lebron is a great player on an average team. You know what that is all about, right? I imagine you've seen it before even. Did that make you think less of Kobe? When Duncan was winning championships, or when Paul Pierce won, did that make them better than Kobe?
Lebron will own the regular season again next year, but I don't see the Cavs making any real noise in the playoffs with the squad and coach they have now. Kobe will likely get another ring if they keep Odom and Ariza. But saying this win puts Kobe with MJ just isn't right. Kinda like you saying you can't even mention LEbron in the same breath as Kobe.

well put. this is true though imo: "LeBron is CURRENTLY closer to the likes of Melo, Wade, CP3, etc. than he is to Kobe, Jordan, Bird, etc". well, at least achievements/career wise. still, in terms of talent right now Kobe > LeBron, imo

See, I have no problem with people saying Kobe is better, but to say its not even close with him and Lebron is a stretch man. Saying shit like that is why 75% of the board thinks you are not knowledgeable about bball when it is obvious that you actually are (when your judgement is not impaired by your love of your boy)

If you cut down on the hyperbole, you would come off as much more intelligent. Just a thought...

LOL...you say Kobe is not in the same league as Jordan, but then you try and talk shit about me saying LeBron is not in the same league as Kobe? ahaha... Kobe is clearly closer to Jordan than LeBron is to Kobe, and that's a fact. I don't care what I "come off as" to you...what I speak is the truth and I almost always end up right when it's all said and done. just like two years ago when Kobe was talking about getting traded if he doesnt get help right away, and I told everyone not to panic and that he was simply forcing management to get off their ass, and what happened? title in TWO YEARS. think about it...i know my shit...PeACe
