and you forgot something....Flip said better midrange LOL! if thats one thing better then you have to add it to "better closer" that was your 2 cents.... so thats 2 things better that kobe does, how many things are there to compare in BBall.... could you please ask Flip this one, I think its his turn..... But becarefull he dosent get 2end grade math.
but isnt midrange game part of the playing aspect? you said he was a better pro, not a better player, so how does that back your side? not that you have one...still believe youre only saying what you say just to argue.
go back and read the question again...it clearly states "without using he closes better"...i said without using that becuase thats all thats ever said. I would like to know WHAT ELSE Kobe does better.
but...lets compare then
Kobe:
midrange
closing
free throw shooting
LeBron:
scoring
long range shooting
around the hoop
rebounding
passing
ball handling
half court defense
transition defense
court vision
I'm almost certain I was watching NBA Ball before you were born....and I see the game differently....and what makes me perturbed is my claims being smashed by guys who may have two whole games (watched)under their belt before the playoffs start. I have almost every game Jordan ever played recorded on VCR....
Nobody has ever played the game with more of a combination of finesse and fierceness. Jordan had more love of the game in his little toe than LeBron does....LeBron is a good dancer....he a KG have adopted the Rosin thing from Jordan.
I don't need anybody on this forum calling me a moron....You claim LeBron couldn't have gotten away from going somewhere where the team was not going to be productive....for your info there was only one team in the nation that he was going to devote 7 years to without a ring
Cleavland and I will bet you whatever you'd like that he thought he would have one by now.
Besides even if he would have done 4 years at Milwaukee (no way in heck he would have) he still could have 2 rings where he ended up after Milwaukee. Now, What does Kobe do better???
Kobe:
midrange
closing
free throw shooting
LeBron:
scoring----Kobe scores Better when the game is on the line..and has won the scoring title and has pushed for it every season in the league
long range shooting---hits the long three (Game one) better under pressure
around the hoop---this is truly a toss up
rebounding----Kobe is an outstanding rebounder for playing the 2 position...LeBron should stand out here a bit due to playing the 3 position and being a bigger man
passing----LeBrons better
ball handling---Kobe is better
half court defense---highly debatable...survey would be close
transition defense----highly debatable...survey would be close
Leadership----Kobe by far
court vision----this isn't high school ball...with 24 second to make a play Kobe is better at making a play
When talking Pro Ball to anybody Kobe is thought of first be cause of his accomplishments and length of time in the league....I will say one thing...I have watched the NBA ALOT I have watched with the female gender watching with me and usually they are not impressed with either one of these two, like they were with Jordan, Magic, Bird...because they notice how much in love they are with themselves (big turn off)
and in all reality they think Kobe and lebron are Ball hogs....maybe we know different....maybe we don't
