LeBron isn't better than Kobe off the ball. You'll see more of that when Nash comes back. Kobe is deadly with the pindowns, v-cuts, and coming off picks for jumpers.

As for everything else, Kobe is still better at creating shots, playing on various parts of the floor, shooting from various parts of the floor, and playing in the high post. The only real weaknesses for Kobe right now are physical. His hands are horrible due to injury, he's pretty slow all things considered, and he can't slash like he used to.

If you look at the shot charts, Kobe's shots have always been spread out from various places on the floor. LeBron scores inside and LeBron scores from 16+ with no inbetween. Don't see how he's more well rounded...
Lebron is clearly better than Kobe off of the ball, and I don't have to wait for anything. I've seen more than enough from both players to make the statement. This was obvious when they were on the same team in '08 and last summer when Kobe was jacking up contested jumpshots like he was on the Lakers while Lebron was getting most of his in the flow of the game, moving without the ball.

Kobe is better at jacking up contested low percentage shots than Lebron. Lebron is better at creating higher percentage shots which is why the shot charts show that Lebron scoring more often from the inside. Why stand out on the perimeter jacking up lower percentage shots instead of getting inside taking higher percentage shots if you can? Kobe scores from farther out and a wider variety of spots on the floor because he can't get inside like Lebron can. If he could get inside and to the cup as well as Lebron could, he would. I really don't get how you can argue this, the facts speak for themselves. Lebron is shooting 54% this year and he shot like 53% last year, Kobe's career high is 47%. It's clear that Lebron is a better scorer.
So MJ wasn't fortunate for having Pippen? My bad i forgot, tell me, what did he win before Pippen came along?
I'm not wasting my time arguing with posters who play games like you. I clearly said that Mike wast as fortunate as Kobe has been. I didn't say that Mike wasnt fortunate. Go kiss your Kobe poster.

We'll agree to disagree.

You said LeBron was a more well-rounded scorer but I'm not seeing evidence of that. We weren't talking about efficiency.

Lebron being more well rounded is why he's more efficient. Lebron being more successful at scoring by running the floor, driving to the cup, crashing the boards, ect is why he's more well rounded at scoring than Kobe is. Kobe is much more reliant on his jumper than Lebron is because he's not as well rounded. I'm just tryin to make this simple enough to understand.

LeBron is more efficient because he's bigger, faster and stronger. Not because he's more well rounded. Well-rounded implies variety in which one can and does score. The ability to score in various ways, very well. Not extremely well in some areas, and mediocre to poor in others.

If you want to say that Lebron being bigger, stronger, and faster allows him to be a more well rounded scorer than Kobe then that's fine. Spin it however you want, but Lebron is a more well rounded scorer. Lebron most certainly score in various ways extremely well. he scores in more ways than Kobe does which is the biggest reason that he's a lot more efficient. We keep going in circles because you don't get it. Some of you just don't understand the game, you're just fanboys. So what areas do you think that lebron is mediocre to poor in?

This is a straight up lie. I'm not 1 player who wast as fortunate as Kobe, Michael Jordan. No point in trying to challenge me if you're going to lie and be disingenuous.

My argument for saying that Kobe is overrated is based on nothing but facts and an honest assessment of watching him play throughout his career. Overrated how? Kobe is overrated defensively and offensively as an individual player. A lot of people either ignore or downplay his flaws as a player. People use the success that his teams have had to try a paint him as a better player than he actually is. That is how he is overrated. Has Kobe deserved all of those all defensive team nods? No. Is Kobe as good in the clutch as the hype says that he is? No. The best Laker ever? No. He's just not as good as the hype my man, he's overrated. I'm not even going to respond to that fanboy Bs rhetoric of yours. You people always dis Kobe's teammates in an effort to make him look better. Its pathetic. I honestly think that a lot of you Kobe fanboys are homsexual.

Lebron is a more well rounded scorer because he scores in more ways. As of right now, I don't think that Kobe is a better post player and it's a fact that he's not a better 3 point shooter. Scoring is about a lot more than that though. Lebron is a better driver, he's better at running the floor, he's better at crashing the boards, he's better at running the floor, and he's better at moving without the ball. That's how he's a more well rounded, more efficient, and an overall better scorer.

Almost everything you said in this long ass post was wrong

What the hell are you watching?

Nah everything was on point, you're just a homsexual fanboy who gets irritated when you see people not unconditionally slurping Kobe as you do.

Kobe fans are like Pacquiao's fans but at least you can understand why Fillipinos rep Pacquiao so hard. He's all they have. No excuse for this Kobe worship though. You can't even keep it real about him without angering his legion of fanatics.
