...and he made his free throws.

...and Kobe didn't come through in the clutch.

Maybe Bynum should be getting all this MVP talk instead of Kobe.  Dude goes down with an injury and a losing streak starts...

if u wanna talk about fucced up shiet in the game, they gave the lakers 2 extra unfair seconds after that inbounds when the clocc stopped. either way lebron showed the whole country how to hit a game winner in kobes face.

LeBron also did a good job on defending Kobe through some possessions in the 4th

I was VERY surprised he's willingly going to take those crunch time FTs when everybody knows that Gibson is the better FT shooter... that was on some major responsibility shit

NBA.com,most of you niccas favorite site  ;) knows what up.

LeBron Outduels Kobe in L.A.

LeBron James outshined Kobe Bryant as he scored 14 of his 41 in the fourth to help the Cavs rally from a late nine-point deficit for a 98-95 win over the Lakers

Lebron > Kobe



LMAO...Were you listening to the commentary on the game? "Kobe is _BY FAR_ the best player on the planet"...They wouldn't say that if the comment you just made wasn't absurd.


Kobe played with no confidence towards the end, like I've never seen...and Luke pretty much proved why Kobe's confidence was so low by passing up an open 3 as time expired...On some bullshit. Fact of the matter is, we have some primary players in our rotation missing, and our inside game, which is what we depended on earlier in the season, is not the same. Still, was a close game, and Lakers had a good chance to win....Either way, Kobe is the MVP again this season, and if he went down instead of Bynum, Lakers would be losing even worse. But we DEFINITELTY need Bynum down low and Ariza defending the wing, as that is a primary part of our game plan...PeACe

Reminds me of the Dominique Wilkins/Michael Jordan battles...
(I remember Wilkins Often Out Scoring & Drilling The Bulls of old)

Great game By James, He CAN"T be stopped when he drives to the Hoop.
Still need's to step up his Jump shot & free throws a Bit, Although his incline is only getting better.
His size is Insane. I'd like to see James in a different City, (Maybe NY Knick's) So he can Truley Become The star he deserves.
(He's already a Superstar, But A major City WWill Put him Over the Top)
He won't ever win with Cleveland. (IMO)

If Hughes can keep playing like he did today, James will have a true sidekick.

Lebron needs a player who can create for others and be a 2nd consistent scorer .. Ilgauskas is just too inconsistent ala Odom to be a legit 2nd option , Gooden too , Hugues has fallen off badly .. I see James leaving in 2010, playing for a bigger market , he aint winning a title in Cleveland anyways, their FO havent done significant trades yet

Anyone who currently puts LeBron above Kobe as an individual player doesn't know the first thing to basketball outside of reading stats. Seriously, now. It's just an absurd thing to say...And anyone using todays game as the reason, please get help. Forget the fact that the Lakers are playing without some primary players, the Cavs had FOUR players in double figures, while the Lakers had only two. And don't even try "LeBron makes his guys better," because Kobe had more assists, as well...PeACe

Cavs been moppin the floor with the lakers lately in each matchup.

Cleveland 98, L.A. Lakers 95

LOS ANGELES, Jan. 27 (AP) -- The final seconds ticked away, with the Los Angeles Lakers needing a 3-pointer to send the game into overtime.

That shot was never even attempted.

LeBron James won his personal matchup with Kobe Bryant in a duel of the NBA's leading scorers, tallying 14 of his 41 points in the fourth quarter, and the Cleveland Cavaliers beat Los Angeles 98-95 Sunday for their fifth straight win over the Lakers.

This nicca not only shows how weak Kobe guarded him one on one, but he shows how a superstar can actually lead a team to playoff series WINS without having a monster like Shaq. maybe kobe will figure out how to win series without shaq by watchin tape of how true leaders like lebron do it.  8) this nicca only 23 and took his team to the finals alone already while other older niccas is on they way to being known as sidekiccs.

yeah i agree that them niccas shouldnt even be in the same breath no more, since one is a young, big scoring rising star coming off a finals appearance and the other is a big scorer who cant win any playoff series no more. i guess he can ride the hype of that three peat and scoring forever.

he won rings as shaq's sidekicc 6 years ago and hasnt been able to lead a team on his own to even one series win. (Shaq meanwhile won another ring in Miami) And this nicca Lebron single handedly took his team all the way to the finals at age 22. Lebron is the new and improved version of what kobe was. at least you kobe fans can always remember those rings from the shaq years.

Even you must be a little smarter than this...Kobe taking the Lakers to the playoffs these past couple years is an accomplishment on its own. Nobody else in the league could have done that. How is LeBron a "new and improved version of what Kobe was"? Do you realize how you make yourself sound? What exactly is LeBron better at than Kobe? Kobe is a better scorer, defender, has a better shot, more range, can shoot free throws, proven clutch, etc...the only thing LeBron has on Kobe is strength. He's more powerful, but Kobe has never been a power player, he's been a skill player...Let me ask you something, and be 100% honest. As of now, who would you say is a better player? Kobe Bryant or LeBron James? Be real with it...PeACe

Against the Lakers, Lebron scored six of his 14 fourth-quarter points in the final 76 seconds, driving for a layup, sticking a 22-footer over Bryant then coolly making both his free throws after Bryant intentionally fouled him with nine seconds left. Bryant, meanwhile, missed six of his seven shots in the final quarter. During the Lakers' loss in Cleveland last month, Bryant also missed two crucial shots in the final minutes with James chasing him.

if you look at what they both done as solo leaders its not as clear cut as yall think. since shaq left the lakers kobe hasn't done shiet as a leader but lose every single 1st round playoff series he's in. in the same amount of years, at a younger age, with a equally mediocre(or worse) team, lebron was able to upset the defending east champs/former nba champs full of all stars and win 2 other series, all while putting up numbers close to or better than kobes. if you look at full careers, of course kobe gonna benefit from having 3 titles courtesy of shaq's dominating presence, but if you look at just what them 2 niccas done on they own, lebron is right there and has actually PROVEN beyond just talk on the internet that he can WIN carrying a majority of the load. kobe by himself cant win anything in every year he's had to prove he can do it alone, all he's proven is that he can be like allen iverson, meanin score a shietload of points, pad his stats and then lose in the playoffs. and even then, at least iverson took his team to the finals as the focus of the team too, something kobe has never done. the nicca will always be robin to shaq's batman and the fact that shaq won a title with another robin (d wade) proves it. until kobe takes a laker team to the finals, he'll be a step behind lebron in the last 4 or 5 seasons.

You don't get it, do you? Kobe is leading a different team than LeBron, in a tougher conference. Like I said many times, LeBron wouldn't have even made the playoffs these previous 2 seasons in Kobe's shoes. Watch what happens this year, when Kobe has a team built around him that actually stands a chance. BTW, you saying Wade was Shaq's Robin in Miami's title season is hilarious. Shaq never did shit without a superstar guard paving the way...PeACe

Just wow@last game. LeBron is so good.

As a Blazer fan, I have to give him a ton of credit for that game. Amazing performance. He scored damn near half of the Cavs points and something like 19 in the 4th alone. There was no excuse to not have Przybilla (who blocked james at the rim twice) in the game or to have Roy guarding the bigger, stronger, more athletic James on an iso for the game deciding possession. Mental error on McMillan's part, but give James all the credit in the world for puttin the team on his back and willing them to the W.

Media Groupie? LMAO.

Whenever announcers or news anchors say: So and so is better than Kobe.
NIK says: Don't listen to the media! You're a media groupie.

Whenever the media says: Kobe is the best player on the planet.
NIK says: You see! I'm right! You're wrong.

I'm laughing at WC Solider saying people are childish for saying Lebron > Kobe or Lebron owns the Lakers. You mad?

Laker groupies go around all day saying how the Lakers are the best team, making excuses when they lose. That's not childish? Get over yourself.

Lakers lost. Lebron owned Kobe. Lebron > Kobe. Nothing childish about it.



+1 my brother

a new torch being passed?

Now with Gasol, Kobe obviously has a MUCH better cast than Lebron.

The supposed "best bench" in the league, the best coach in the league, one of the best big men in the league and the supposed "best young talent (yes, I know he's hurt)," so now that excuse as to why Kobe doesn't lead as well as Lebron is out the window.

Houston 92, Cleveland 77

HOUSTON (AP) -- Minutes after the Houston Rockets beat the Cleveland Cavaliers, Tracy McGrady was slurping down chicken noodle soup. He was sick all day, skipped the morning shootaround and showed up less than an hour before the game.

Good thing Houston didn't need its All-Star guard too much in this one.

Yao Ming had 22 points and 12 rebounds and Rafer Alston had 17 points and nine assists in the Rockets' 92-77 victory on Thursday night, their ninth win in 10 games. McGrady, sluggish and visibly ill throughout the game, scored eight points on 3-for-11 shooting.

"We had a lot of guys step up tonight," McGrady said.

LeBron James had 32 points and seven rebounds for the Cavaliers, who sorely missed Drew Gooden, their second-leading rebounder. Gooden sat out with a groin injury, the first game he's missed this season.

Houston outrebounded the Cavs 55-35 and Cleveland grabbed only seven offensive boards.

"We got outworked on the boards and we got outworked on all the loose balls," said Coach Mike Brown.

The Rockets also held every Cavalier but James to a dismal shooting night. James went 12-for-23. The rest of the team went 19-for-55.

"We didn't let a lot of other guys get going," Alston said. "He's a superstar, he's going to get his and he's going to be a factor in the game. As long as you eliminate the other guys, their role players, you should be OK out there."

Houston led by one after a sluggish first half, then outscored Cleveland 32-20 in the third quarter to take control.

The Rockets sank their first five shots of the quarter, three of them 3-pointers. McGrady hit a deep jumper and a 3-pointer from the wing on consecutive possessions to put Houston up 53-44.

Later, Shane Battier sank his second 3-pointer and Luis Scola broke free for a dunk to stretch the lead to 65-51. The Cavs missed 11 of their first 16 shots and got outrebounded 14-4 in the first 10 minutes after halftime.

"Second half, we just fired up," Yao said. "I was like, 'I hope we can stay like this the rest of the night."'

Besides missing Gooden, the Cavs were playing their fifth game without Anderson Varejao, who's out with a sprained left ankle. Varejao and Gooden are both averaging 8.5 boards per game.

"When you play big teams, it's going to affect us," James said. "When you have 20 rebounds not here, it obviously hurts."

Houston pushed the lead to 16 before James hit a 3-pointer over Battier in the final seconds of the third quarter to make it 72-59. James had three more baskets early in the fourth quarter during a 12-3 Cavs run that cut the deficit to seven.

Battier, Houston's best one-on-one defender, did what he could to limit the NBA's leading scorer. Battier was surprised he managed to score 15 points himself.

"LeBron was really, really good tonight, and took most of my focus," Battier said. "I think I forgot about my offense a little bit. That guy does that to you."

James sank two free throws with 3:22 left to pull Cleveland within six, at 83-77, but Yao hit a turnaround jumper 20 seconds later. McGrady missed a 3-pointer on Houston's next possession, but Bonzi Wells rebounded and dunked to push the lead to 10.

McGrady was struggling to breathe seven minutes into the game and covered his head with a towel on the bench during the first time out. He returned to the game, but was replaced by Wells with 2:54 left in the first quarter.

James missed four of his first six shots, including a one-handed dunk attempt that Yao partially blocked. He hung in the air to hit a jumper in the final seconds of the quarter to cut Houston's lead to 23-19.

The Rockets could've led by more, but missed 10 of their 11 3-point tries in the half. The Cavs finished the half with a 12-6 run and trailed 40-39 at the break. McGrady missed all five of his shots in the half.

The Cavs had won 11 of their previous 13 games.

Notes

Donyell Marshall started for Gooden, his first start since the 2004-05 season. ... Cleveland G Daniel Gibson, a Houston native, left in the fourth quarter with a strained right hamstring. ... The Cavs play no more road games against Western Conference teams this season. ... Rockets G Luther Head sat out for the third straight game with a strained groin.
