    do people even study tape? kobe bryant is indisputably better than lebron. lebron is one of those freakish athletes who use strength and power to drive to the basket. while it's amazing that he has all this natural talent. it doesn't change the fact that kobe is more skilled. on He has a versatile range. He has a vast array of moves that are unparalleled, inspired by and mostly appropriated from his meticulous film study of the greats. he is the most fundamentally sound player in the NBA. lebron cannot lay a finger on kobe's footwork. study it. it's mind-boggling how kobe can spin around and slash through defenders, using his precise footwork. lebron is bigger and stronger, but kobe is more skilled and complete. kobe has a larger arsenal, not only because of his immense talents, but because of his great understanding of the game. his basketball IQ is off the charts as proven by the fact that he is one of the only players who have a precise knowledge about angles, spacing, speed, and r

    mike johnson: Every player in game 7 had bad shooting percent, 20-30%, even artest and gasol, as well as kobe. Hell, kobe had 23 points, 15 rebounds, and 2 steals. That's damn good. His presense, defense and pushing his players made the lakers win. If he wasn't there, the game would have been over and rest of lakers would have given up. Plus finals MVP is for the whole series. Hell, if Kobe wasn't there, no way they would have been in the finals. No one knew who gasol was before he came to the lakers, you could never say he was one of the best big men in the game, Kobe was conisdered the best basketball player in the world, Kobe made Gasol better, and now Gasol is considered the best big man out there. Get your facts straight.

    Kobe is better age wise but OVERALLL, Mr. James is better!! Micheal Jordan only one multiple championships because of Scottie pippen, Kobe had SHAQ,LETS NOT FORGET , whe he won his first two and PAUL GASOL these last two and DID NOT deserve the MVP TITLE!! YES I SAID IT!! He was HORRIBLE game 7 and Ron Artest bailed them out of that one!! LETS GO KING JAMES Get at least 10 championships and pass Kobe and Mr. Jordan , THANK YOU!!
