Think about it, Kobe needed 5/7 just to be #12, LeBron made #3 with just 2/6

[Dray n Klay]

Kobe needed to go 5/7 just to be 12th all-time


LeBron became 3rd alltime with a 2/6






By making fun of Bron's record, you guys are basically saying LeBron is so much better than Kobe that he's 9 spots ahead of him with less than half the rings.





You're basically admitting LeBron >>>>>> Kobe as a player




Hold this L

Problem is, who said Kobe was 12th, and who said Lebron was 3rd? You? ESPN?

[Akrazotile]

Excellent points as usual OP.


Suicide hotline flooded with incoming calls from Kobestans right now


Just remember, guys, if you get a busy signal hang up and try again. Dont do anything drastic!

Be happy with the 12th


With Curry, Durant, Anthony Davis coming up, Kobe might drop to 15th before this decade is over


He can only drop now from his 12th ranking



Kobetards, even when you guys win, you lose

[ripthekik]

The only one that should be worried about Curry, Durant, and Davis is Lebron..
hell, Curry is going to be 2/2 this year, imagine how lebron feels with 2/7

When any of those kids, including lebron, those 5, then we can talk

[sportjames23]

Kobe haters needed rape charges to dent Kobe's popularity, and thus make way for Lebron to become the Golden Child.

But don't worry, 2/7 is coming...

ESPN rankings

[knicksman]

Most espn analysts are fat statnerds or in other words losers. So its no surprise, bran stans have the same thinking as them.

[Real14]

There's no way that OP makes sense.

[Kiddlovesnets]

Lebron at #3 is unrealistic, hes a poor man's Magic Johnson and cannot be ahead of Magic. Kobe at #12 is a reasonable statement, ESPN alone may be biased, but SportsIllustrated ranking him at #12 too essentially means that this is where he truly belongs.

Thnk about it, there even was no meaning of the "X/X in Finals" stat until Lebron became anything at all.

How the flying **** is there no meaning to it you ****ing retard? It literally means how many finals you won in how many tries it took. You think they didnt use X/X finals for Wilt? For Bird? For Magic? They all lost in the finals you ****ing retard. Not everything is about Lebron

[LakersForlife]

2/7 is a great accomplishment now adays? Man little bron bron really lowered the bar for greatness

i'm pretty sure not nearly as much. It wasn't until I got to this board that anyone ever used 2/6 to discredit Wilt(ik half of that is because of Lazeruss). I'm pretty sure outside of here, no one has Wilt outside the top 5.

the reality is the optimization of Lebron skillset has seen him win only 2 finals (one of which literally came down to one shot by a top 4 shooter of all time), and soon to be 5 losses. He could take any team to the playoffs sure, he has that kind of effect on the game where he fills up the stat sheet. But the sad reality is, that even at peak optimization, it usually doesn't result in a championship because at the critical point of games, with playoff intensity basketball, it comes down to superstar effort and killer instinct to put you over the top. Its like getting 100m from the summit of everest for 6 years in a row, sure thats impressive but its just not enough to achieve true greatness.

Lebron is probably the best freak athlete we have ever seen in the game, but as a basketballer he can't even crack my top 15 because you simply can't trust him to get the job done when it matters
