  Your “reasons” are about 99 percent specious. For a much more thorough analysis see my blog.

  Fight the good fight, my man.

  Unlike the other “superstars” that ESPN, the NBA, and David Stern would like shove down our throats, Kobe is actually fun to watch.

• Farmanstulor

  What a fool you are. If Kobe was indeed this much better you’d think that noone would need to spend so much time trying to convince themselves and others of it..

• FARMARLUVR

  Word!

  i love # 27! lol

• kray28

  Watching LeBron play is slightly more exciting than watching paint dry.

  He either does the same flying tomahawk after traveling or he goes into fullback mode and charges to the basket for a lay up while throwing in a crab dribble or two.

  He has no consistent stroke from range, ugly shooting form, can’t hit a clutch freethrow to save his life and acts like he’s entitled to all this adulation. Pfft.

• Mike

  preach it man. Kobe’s the best, hands down.

• Farmanstulor

  “He has no consistent stroke from range, ugly shooting form, can’t hit a clutch freethrow to save his life and acts like he’s entitled to all this adulation. Pfft.” -Kray

  The same could be said for players like Shaq and Chamberlain and Russell, however they all turned out to be fairly decent players. This isn’t the Harlem Globetrotters, don’t assume effectiveness always has to be aesthetic.

  -Lebron James gets the job done better than Kobe Bryant, end of story.

  Great article about why Kobe is still better then Lebron

  http://www.playersvoice.com/nba/a-statement-made.html

• john

  Kobe is the best!!stop arguing lebron fans!you are all crap!!kobe will kick your ass!!!shit!

• rob

  Lebron is still just 24 years old. Kobe has played 13 seasons, ofcourse he is going to have more playoff experience, ofcourse he is going to have more records.
  The only fair thing is to compare them this season. kobe 28ppg lebron 29ppg not a big difference… BUT lebron averaging 7 rebounds AND 7 assists this season! while kobe is averaging 5 rebounds and 5 assists. Lebron is a better player period. he can score 50+ at MSG but also get a triple double in the process. half the reasons you have there… scratch that… ALL the reasons you have there are bull. Lebron has a better FG% so it doesnt matter if his jumpshot is perfect, he is averaging more points with a bigger success rate to his shot. this was a useless article and dont waist my time next time you put this on stumble.

• http://none E

  He is better than Lebron at this point, but this list is dumb. Lebron has played in fewer seasons, it seems like you’re stacking as many reasons as you can without using common sense, Like #’s 18-21, repeating the same thing… Why would you waste your time on this unless you are Kobe. Sounds like a fan boy to me.

• B

  @Lebron fans- if you don’t like Kobe why you searching shit up on him? quit crying. Kobes taking his lakers all the way. lets get it

• kobe head

  HEY I LIVE IN CLEVELAND ALL MY FRIENDS LOVE LEBRON EXECPT ME HE’S A GOOD PLAYER AND ALL BUT COME ON NOW KOBE OR LEBRON GET REAL DATS LIKE JORDAN OR SHAQ LOL

  The NBA has just been waiting for a player that fits there perfect nice guy guidelines. so kobe bryant was kind of a dick when he was younger. so what. telling people lebron james is better constantly on espn is a joke. lebron james is in the position kobe was in like 06, accept hes not putting up as good of numbers. I really love the led the lakers to the playoffs with kwame brown and smush parker. Everyone complains about how bad the rest of the Cavs are. they arent bad, its just lebron does everything for them to make himself look good. i cant wait for lebron james to have another disappointing season as far as winning a championship goes ( which is the point of the NBA, which i think alot of people forget)

• Eray

  Kobe actually is more athletic than LeBron

  And Kobe is better than Jordan I have no doubt about that

• http://facebook.com/skip76er SkiBro

  Kobe IS better than Jordan. Jordan didn’t see the kinds of defenses that Kobe sees. There was no zone when Jordan played. There was no double teaming off the ball. Kobe faces that every night and still gets it in. If they tried to play man-to-man all night against Kobe, he’d kill every team every night. That’s just the truth. As far as LeBron, he is a good passer. He’s too passive though. In clutch moments, I’ve seen him give the ball up. It’s like he doesn’t want the blame if the shot doesn’t fall. Kobe wants the responsibility of winning/losing the game. He’s a cold-blooded killer and LeBron doesn’t have that in him. And every year he gets better. AI was up there; declining. TMac was up there; declining. DWade is better than LeBron. He has a ring. He’s not better than Kobe. He has 1 ring. Shaq was there for a few years. No excuses.

• kobeforlife

  yeah lebron cant come even close to touching kobe.
  and lebron is like the worst sport in the world at least kobe has a good attitude and shows respect to other players.

  and to “farmanstulor”…obviously we have to say why kobe is the best (where’s your list?) because its so stupid that people think that lebron can come even anywhere near to kobe that we have to set them straight by laying down the facts

• WillyTfresh

  Kobe is obviously better than lebron. Say all you want about him being young, anyone with a brain in their head knows that he will not be as successful as Kobe is and is continuing to be. Likability aside its all about getting the job done and kobe does that better. Lebron is getting by on his freakish size and strength for now but that will change. The only way to stop kobe is to hope to god hes off that night.

• http://www.hotmail.com ignacio

  you’re reasons are extremely stupiddd. about 5 of them are legit. the rest are just things like, “hes good at shooting”… WOW good reason! everyone in the NBA is good at shooting! Lebron is frickin good at shooting! DURABILITY? WOW good reason! jordan like qualities and skills? another great reason (sarcasm… horrible, all of the ideas… horrible). u just made up reasons that are just pure opinion and no statistics to back it up. can i just say im really glad u made this site… no im not, it should be called 5 reasons why kobe is better and the rest are useless and a waste of time.

• jsolida

  how about his countless game winning shots? Kobe is an assassin, he doesn’t hesitate to make game winning/losing shots. He is the definition of clutch. Lebron James himself even stated that Kobe is the best player in the NBA. its obvious, saying Lebron James is better than Kobe Bryant is like saying The Cleveland Browns are better than the Saints.

• Matt

  This is ridiculous. What makes an elite NBA player? Look at the stats….Lebron has a better shooting percentage, points per game, assists, rebounds, blocks, three point percentage, etc. Go to http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/teams/stats?team=lal or lebrons page and look at their stats. Granted that Kobe has more championships but he has been in the leauge double what Lebron has and he has played with Shaq in his prime and Pau Gasol. LeBron has shit to work with and still kills the game. If you want to talk about clutch shots then you have to look at when he made them. Kobe has made eaisly the majority of his clutch shots in the past 7 years which is the amount that Lebron hasent. Kobe is a veteran and now LeBron is getting to be a veteran so he will eaisly make that many clutch shots in the next 7 years. You all are clowns get at me when you have some facts.

• Ted

  Most of these reasons may have been legit before but are wrong now. Lebron shoots a higher field goal and 3 point %, Lebron has a better shot % in clutch situations according to 82games.com

  Lebron is 9-5 against Kobe lifetime. Lebron is bigger, faster and stronger than Kobe and jumps higher. Lebron won 2nd in defensive player of the year and many think he will win it this year. Lebron averages more points, rebounds, assists, blocks and has a higher field goal percentage and 3 point percentage. As for PER stats, Lebron is the most efficient player in the NBA and Kobe is like 10th. Lebron’s team is 2-0 against Kobe’s team, Lebrons team has the best record in the NBA. In a poll on ESPN, over 60% said Lebron is better. Lebron got more all star votes. You guys better hope Lebron never wins a title because once he does the debate is not even a debate anymore, Lebron has surpassed Kobe in EVERY category.

• kobe>lebron

  of course Lebron has a better percentage in clutch situations. Kobe has hit 80 game winning shots. Lebron hasn’t even attempted 80 shots in clutch situations. The perfect way, in my eyes, to compare great players. Make them both the same size (height & weight), now which one is better? Obviously it is Kobe. Lebron just travels through defenses & jumps over everyone, which is why fans seem to favor him. & everyone needs to quit comparing them right now. Kobe has seen his better days & we all know that, yet he is still in this conversation of the best in the NBA.

  Kobe is playing with a Broken Index Finger (on his shooting hand), Lebron sat out for weeks with a Dislocated Pinky (on his left hand). Who has more drive to win? Who cares more for the game? Who makes no excuses & competes so their TEAM can win a CHAMPIONSHIP. end of story. ’nuff said

• Lebron.Champ

  Lebron Is The Best Player in the world…Kobe Is only good Because of his Good Teammates..Lebron made His Team # 1 Because Of His Skills….

• Tony

  Kobe Bryant is better than Lebron James hands down. Lebron is a great player, because of his size. He uses the same moves, and travels very often. It seems like players always just give up or get out of the way, but could you blame them, the guy is like 6’9 and weighs like 260 with great athletic ability. Who wants to get in front of that? Kobe doesnt have that size, but he has the deadliest mid range shot in NBA history, and he is a great 3 point shooter. Stats mean nothing, players dont respect Lebrons shot, they always give it to him. Not with Kobe, he always has a hand in his face and makes shots that just make your jaws drop, shots MJ wouldnt make. Kobe is an assasin and as a better competitive drive than Lebron. I could keep going but I hope what i just stated was enough to change some minds out there, im tired of typing.

• LBJ MVP

  3 fourths of this article is either false or just crap that’s made up… First of all you used turnaround jumper and fadeaway jumper which are basically the same thing. second of all what the hell is hunger? is he gonna eat a big mac after he yells at his teammates for losing a game? also what do you mean by greater career resume? After each of their first 6 seasons LeBron beats him in every stat except free throw percentage. Lastly, Kobe can thank Shaq for 3 of those rings. BOTTOM LINE: when they are both retired Lebron will have better stats, more championships, and more MVP awards.

• newgirrrrrrl

  another reason is
  KOBE IS SEXY!

• Gary

  63% of voters on ESPN said Lebron was better than Kobe LAST YEAR and there is no comparison this season. I can’t believe someone said Kobe is a great 3 point shooter….is that a joke? He shoots 30%, Reggie Miller and Ray Allen were great 3 point shooters not Kobe.

• Flawl3ss

  Easily one of the most laughable lists ever created haha. What a joke 90% of these “reasons” are either. 1. Easily proved wrong, 2. a re worded copy of one already said, or 3.not even a measurable trait or statistic but rather a matter of opinion.

• http://facebook.com Evans

  KingKobe is much better than QueenRon in many ways!

• http://www.bestplayerontheplanet. third

  king james is better than kobe cause kobe is a ball hog

• http://www.myspace.com/ahhfml tatiana

  on top of that kobe’s song is waaaaaaaaaaay better

• Karo Chaison

  O yea and some embasil said make them both da same size lol omg wow…I didnt think anybody was dumb enough to utter out such stupidity…everybody has different gifts and talents and Lebron has God-given size and ability…and that has alot to do wit his success and dominance!!!Make them both da same size lol lollolololololollololol hahahahahahaha dont say that again please I dont want anyone else to think you’re wierd or stupid

• bobby

  lebron acts immature countless times a year. dancing on the sideline and making claims to the press. “i’m not going to wear #23 because its a disrespect to MJ.” yeah ok why the fuck have you been wearing it the last 8 years?

  kobe just activates and takes over games… while injured.

• WESTup

  I dont understand why people even call Lebron “king” ok first off he aint no king, hows he a king w/o a ring? ..#’s dont mean sh** hands down kobe is the better player and people need to accept it,kobe has only proved time and time again on the biggest of stages that he can come thru in the clutch and yet manages to make unbelievable shots under pressure…AND REALLY whats the cavs w/o lebron..a whole lotta NADA…lakers have been well put together and have played well wen Kobe was out. Both are outstanding players and deserve credit but we obviously know KB is the man EEEnuff said.

• WESTup

  yet “Kobe is a ball hog” but makes plays that need to get done u make a lot of sense, its all about that W and if that makes him and the rest of the team accomplish a victory so be it..shit cus they keep ME and all these other laker fans happy …mind over matter..in my mind haters dont matter cus they’ll always be there lol

• http://kobe#1!!!! omar yaser

  LeBron is better than kobe…. First of all Kobe had Shaq on his team those are Shaq rings he did all the dirty work. Thats why D Wade has a ring as well. Next kobe bryant is a rapist, honestly ur making millions and you still cant get some wow.. Lebron is more athletic and taller. When he comes to chicago next season and plays with derrick rose and joakim noah his rings will come. so suck it kobe..

• carl andrei king

• ryan

• bob

  the best player in NBA history:

  1. Michael AIR Jordan
  2. LeBron KING James
  3. Kobe BLACK MAMBA Bryant

  so,, Lebron is better…

• Richy

  Jordan like qualities? ur kidding right?

• Richy

  Kobe had a game where he went 17 out of 47
  I don’t think LeBron’s the one that can’t pass.
  either way, they’re both really not that good

• dominic

  all u LeBron fans are fucking crazy u all can say he is better win he wins a fucking ring he cant even get past the conference finals he might be a better regular season player but when it matters most u need kobe not the lebron the queen james

• tom odera

• Sinlan

  You are all idiots. Lebron doesn’t have a single chamPionship ring and he is 28. Kobe was 23 when he got his 2nd or 3rd. Yeah if Queen James is so good then why doesn’t he come out of the closet.
