Doesn't change the fact when it's a 5-5, Kobe will lose to LeBron in the Finals lol.

LeBron would block the old man

[PLANT]

Yea I duno if Kobe would take LeBron 1 on 1 right now.....maybe 5 years ago Kobe vs LeBron right now, but Kobe isnt as explosive as he used to be.  Id love to see this go down tho!!  Kobe comparing LBJ to Magic was cool, but LeBron is so much more overpowering and explosive than Magic ever was.

[theremedy360]

Of course he said he would win lol, Kobe's not the Kevin Durant type that is completely humble and doesn't wanna up himself. He's a competitor and will probably think he's better than everyone until his career is over.

This easiest thing for both guys to prove. Just play a one on one game.

Lebron is too much of a pussy to accept it, he would ask Nike to confiscate the tape anyways

Is it just me or is Kobe admitted that LeBron is a better overall, all-around player than him?

Kobe is saying that he'll jay the shit out of you & you can't guard him one on one; but he's saying LeBron is a better passer. There is no denying LeBron is a better rebounder. So yeah, that's a confession from Kobe lol.

I think that was just him trying to compliment his friend. Trust me, Kobe doesn't think anyone is better than him lol

Anybody remember back when Taco Bell was going to sponsor Hakeem Elijawan against Shaq in a One on One matchup but it got cancelled? 

[Tha A]

he would imo, not saying he's better than lebron but iso's kobe's thing. no screens for lebron 1-on-1 and nobody to dish the ball to. kobe got the post game, the jumpshot, can also still drive, not like before though, and he got better 1-on-1 defense. lebron got that strength and power combined with speed, the explosiveness, driving to the basket, also got good on ball defense and weak side d with those blocks. tough to say but I think kobe's post game would be the x-factor, would love to see it go down though.
