Kobe is better than LeBron, you can't dispute that, and acting like your "argument" is correct when it is, like all opinions merely an opinion and not fact is pretty immature.
Of caurse are all opinions.But he dispute my choice to put Duncan and Shaq ahead of Kobe.
People in sports forget.
Duncan and Shaq at their prime were better than Kobe ever was.
When Kobe won the 3 rings with Shaq who was the MVP winner(2000) and the MVP candidate(2001 & 2002)?
Shaq.

Who won 3 straight Finals MVP?
Shaq.
Kobe was the second option in 3 of his 5 rings.He is a top-10 player.But if you compare him with "the logo" Jerry West both at their primes West was better.He was a beast at the Playoffs.Kobe is the worst playoffs performer than any other Top-10 player.Kobe has better career and that's why they are (=).
Again I don't care if he scored 50 or 60 points.His efficiency(FG%) isn't so good in comparison with other greats.
As about the Pistol he is my favorite player ever.He had scary potential when he was in College but in the NBA he hadn't so great career.His ceiling was to be a Top-5 player ever.But.....................
He was the skills Master.
