What does Lebron have to do in order to surpass Kobe?

[Jax019]

Media keeps asking this question a lot lately, clearly Lebronze has an opportunity to surpass Kobe. At best he's ending up with 4 chips, no way he makes it to 5. He had to form the greatest team of all time with a nemesis in order to win rings. But it's okay, Kobe needed Shaq. Everybody needed some help.

Will 4 finals MVP's be enough to surpass Kobe? Personally, I think when all is said and done it will be 1) MJ 2) Kobe 3) Lebron

[Onita]

There is virtually no chance, outside of injury, LeBron doesn't pass Kobe.

[RogerSterling]

Umm... not die this season? Lol he has pretty much already surpassed Kobe to anyone who knows basketball and doesn't just use the "but he has five rings!" argument (and ignoring Shaq was the star for the first 3)

lol at putting Kobe as #2 on your all time list

[Bulkytheboot]

All I know is it doesn't matter if he wins 5 more championships/mvps in a row or if he suddenly becomes injured and never plays again... kobetards and lebrontards will never stop the circular debate on who is better.

[sickkuntj]

He's already passed Kobe honestly but they're both great players nonetheless.

[jassako]

6 more seasons as a top 10 player in the league + 3 more rings

basically match GOATbe's longevity

[STA1011]

Formed the "greatest team of all time" .... Intredasting, surely you jest

[Bria43]

play at a high level from his 30s to high 30s AND i mean HIGH lvl like kobe does. and also win 2 more rings without choking this time.

when i say high i mean from the ages of 30 - 37 he needs to avg 25+ ppg 7 assist+ per game on a good percentage.

then i'd consider him maybe equal to kobe

Let's be honest here, Lebron will have surpassed Kobe by the end of his career and I hate Lebron lol

[bzman]

2 more ships and a couple more good seasons and he has surpassed Kobe

kobe isn't even 37. im glad you can tell the future and tell us that kobe will still be playing at a high level after an achilles injury.
kobe never avg 7 assists in a season
aware me when LBJ choked. for his 2 rings.
if he gets another ring he will have more MVPs and fMVPs. lulz

Don't ever doubt Kobe. He will avg 25+ ppg this season for sure, bet on it.
LBJ passes way more than Kobe that's why I said that. (Kobe is a SG, so obv)
MVP's are a media award, and anyone playing with a prime shaq would miss out on FMVP's. Don't act like Kobe wasn't going off when he was playing with Shaq throughout all the playoffs.

on how many shot attempts/game?

[maxnas]

What context is this in?


Has he passed Kobe as the current best active player? Yes

Has he passed Kobe on the all time greats list? No

[ThinkAgain]

1 more finals mvp they're both tied at 2

[Bria43]

This is what most the games vs the spurs finals looked like for lbj




Those in the paint layups always came at garbage time to sure up his stats lols.

[DasWunderBrah]

1 more finals mvp they're both tied at 2

this.

[Bria43]

on how many shot attempts/game?

21ish

[kevinyca]

2 more rings with finals mvp. after that the only valid argument left is what's gonna happen when his athleticism fades. (imo)

Lebron won one in the short season and was bailed out by rayray in the next. Wade and Bosh going to wade and bosh. Sure kobe didnt want to play in N.O. but thay was before he was a star. Kobe is better than lebron and is a top tier coach already

Should not have won fmvp last year. Go watch the ray allen shot, his own tean doesnt even trust him. Lebron was wide the **** open calling for the ball, no one even paying attention and they chose to give it to an old ray allen who is only a shell of his former self. You would never ever ever see kobe or michael calling for the ball, the team knows whos getting the balll every single time, and they will take the shot or make the play. Thats greatness. Not yelling jn the corner like a fat kid in a pick up game. "Hey guy, hey.. im open im open hey guys"

[Bria43]

lebron:


kobe:




on the all-time list lbj has to do what i listed above.

individual skill wise it's not even close.

[alphadodger]

He will never surpass Kobe. Funny how the "chosen one" and "King" couldn't get it done in his home state so he had to tuck tail and run away from expectations to team up with his buddies in south beach in order to win anything.

Lebron fanboys trash Kobe for winning rings with Shaq. Lebron has never been "the man" on a team and won titles. The miami heat are Dwyane Wade's team whether the lebron d!ckriders admit it or not. Lebron is nothing more than a sidekick.

[broboma2012]

kobe is not really even close to top 5. a scorer with only 2 scoring titles? a 'clutch god' with terrible clutch stats?

Try watching some games boy. That's the problem with LeBald fan boys, always looking at stats but never watching basketball games.

I would argue this year it's definitely lebrons team with wade injured and slowly declining. This year he is undoubtably the face of the team

[BullBoy8]

Kobe demanded a trade and said he would never play for the lakers again.



Lakers actually brought in talent around him which is why he stayed.

Lebron would have stayed in Cleveland if they brought in talent around him. Cavs turned down Hickson and Ilgauskas for Amare. Bring Amare to the Cavs and they win a title. That was when Amare was averaging 23 and 9 and healthy.

I hate lebron, but I dont blame him for leave. Was bitter that he didnt come to Chicago because Rose, Wade/Bosh, Lebron, Deng, Taj, and Noah would have 3peated. Other than that I have no problem with Lebron and even though he will never win another ring again (Bulls are about to run the league), he will still pass kobe.
