When LeBron first stepped into the League the Cavs had a horrible team – below 20-wins. During LeBron's 3-rd year they finally made the playoffs, thanks to LeBron.Every season and postseason was an excellent season for LeBron – hands down, no arguments about that. I hate to pull the Stat card but that’s what it has come down to.
Yes, they were beat in the Eastern Conference finals and Lakers beat that same team easily (The Magic) but as I said before the Lakers are a better team theN Cleveland and everyone knows that. The records obviously don’t prove anything, which is why stats do not always work but the Lakers beat the Cavs twice in the regular season last year, not just Kobe.
I give it to the Lakers yes they are a better team, but from jump Cleveland has always been a one man show! You put any of those players on different teams and they are not so talented. LBJ’s presence alone makes them strong, there nothing without him and sometimes it isn’t hard to tell!
The Magic exposed the Cavs as a whole. Nothing was said about LeBron, if anything he got more credit. His team was shut down. He couldn’t do it alone: 40-Pts, 8-Rbs and 8-Ast? No one is NBA HISTORY has ever produced those numbers EVER! It was the best playoff series! How dare you say LBJ is not clutch?
The year that they were swept: The Eastern Conference was 50-times weaker than it is today. Those same Spurs were also too much for Kobe’s Lakers. Kobe did all of this but yet it took him until he was 29-years old to get MVP!
You say Kobe finished second in MVP votes? Kind of true LeBron had so many votes he was 1st and 2nd. Therefore, Kobe was more like 3rd.
Any stat will show you that LeBron is a slightly better 3-point shooter than Kobe! LeBron uses strength, moves and speed to beat you, he is beyond versatile!
True, Kobe has all those awards, but he has so many years over LeBron. When LeBron reaches that age he will either have the same amount or more awards. If they had the same amount of Pro-years than yes, otherwise NO!
I agree it is unfair to compare them. You can believe Kobe will always have it. However, once LeBron is Kobe’s age, statistics won’t be the only thing that proves who is better!
