Kobe is pretty good prospect. Projects to a smaller, less physical, less efficient LeBron James IMO.

You Kobe haters need to realize that LBJ isnt even close to him on the defensive end of the floor, and doesnt look like he ever will be. He still has a slight edge on him scoring-wise as well.

1. kobe has been coasting on his rep for years. he isn't nearly as good on d as people make him out to be (though he can still be v good when he's trying).

2. you realize that lebron is a superior rebounder and passer right?

3. lebron is only 22 and can still get better. kobe likely can't play any better than he has already shown.

yes, i know all of those things, i was just pointing out defense because kc left it out when comparing the 2

and yes, lebron is a lot younger, has a higher ceiling and will almost certainly have a better career if he stays healthy
