LOL, right. Really though, I don't get the argument of Kobe over LeBron. The biggest reason is, is because LeBron is 24 and he's as good as Kobe right now. Kobe has been at the peak of his career for a few years and LeBron is right there with him. Hell LeBron even won the MVP during the peak of Kobe's career. Wait til LeBron is Kobe's age and no one will be saying Kobe>LeBron--won't even be an argument anymore.

I was going to say the same thing. I know some players have good weeks, but a good week for a "normal player" is an off week for these guys.

Awesome. Another thread that will turn into the Kobe vs LeBron debate. Can't you guys just cheer on your player and team and respect the other dude? They're the two best players in the NBA, appriciate them.

You know, I really do try but I just can't let them get the last word in...especially because their argument is such a poor one. ;)

I know that much. Letting somebody get the last word just simply isn't in your DNA. Luckily for you, I think some other people have the same problem. It's people like you guys that make me want to create a TV show and have the weeks biggest huddlers participate in the weeks biggest debate. Maybe even have a cage behind set it words aren't enough. That would be more entertaining than reading a post every other minute. Hell, maybe you should switch your business plan to that.

SQ what will the excuse be when the Lakers win it again this year?? Because realistically, nobody is beating LA when they are healthy.

Either format I would win and you can take that to the bank.....

lol. I'm going to love it when the Lakers don't win and everything implodes in your face...

Either way, what would that have to do with Kobe being better? His team is stacked. The Cavs have a great team as well, but no where near the depth of the Lakers.

Are you saying that when Kobe wasn't winning titles after Shaq left and he failed to lead his team anywhere, that he wasn't the best player in the NBA???

There will be no excuses. The Cavs are a great team, it doesn't mean there aren't other great teams. I agree with you, if the Lakers stay healthy and don't win this year then they have some explaining to do. This is the best team Kobe has played on, and that is saying something. Although I don't expect you do admit that and agree with me.

I agree with you 100% bro. This team is STACKED. Pau Gasol is EASILY the most skilled player Kobe has ever played with.

There weren't any excuses last year. Match up issues aren't excuses, they're reasons. That was the reason we lost--that and Mo going cold for the most part. That isn't an excuse, it's the REASON the Cavs lost. There are always reasons, you have to see them and then get better. That's what they did, saw the reasons they lost and made moves in the post season accordingly.

The Lakers are stacked, it's crazy. They're like the Yankees--don't take that the wrong way, I'm a big Yankee fan. But the fact that the Cavs are in the conversation tells you how great the King is. He STILL hasn't played with another superstar but they're right there. Shaq is a superstar in name only at this point, but he will help us reach our goals even though he isn't want it once was.
