Garnett? Wade? Really?
Duncan was great but didn't have the Mamba clutch gene and ability to make that last shot like Kobe did.
And Lebron formed superteams to win his rings. He dipped CLE and won 2 in MIA after promising 8. Then when he realizes that Bosh and Wade are finished, he dips and heads back home to form a superteam with mini-Kobe (Kyrie). He then demands that their #1 pick in the draft be traded for another superstar (at the time Love was a superstar).
Better than Kobe?
Cleveland is 4-15 without Lebron in the lineup the last 2 years. "Superteam."
Watch this video. How can anybody say with a straight face Lebron>Kobe. Its not all about stats.
Bron is a better player than Kobe. KG and Duncan aren't. Especially KG.
Still haven't heard your case for Kobe over Duncan. You'd have to severely underrate Duncan's defensive impact relative to Kobe's.
Kobe's 02/03 (Kobe should've won the MVP over Duncan), 05/06, 06/07 seasons are better than any of Duncan's. Kobe is 12th all time in PPG and that's despite going about 2 years too long where it took a hit. Kobe is a POS but he's a better player.
Kobe can only compare to MJ. Why are ya'll bringing LeColluder James and Mr. Fundamentals (Mr. Boring) into this.
Also LMAO at KG.
This thread about Durant going to the Warriors has taken a strange turn.
I think LeBron is on another level compared to Kobe. It isn't even debatable. Kobe has two more rings but that can't be the deciding factor when pretty much everything else is in LeBron's favour.
Duncan and Kobe is much closer. I'd take Duncan's career and rank him higher all-time but I don't think there's a significant difference.
I'm surprised people are bringing up KG, Wade, Pierce, etc. I'm not a big Kobe fan but I believe those guys are much lower than him on the all-time ranks. Kobe was better at his peak and had a better career. Wade is my favourite player but he can't match Kobe's resume.

Rofl, Kobe is closer to Paul Pierce than Jordan. Rofl
Duncan's career over Kobe any day of the week just for the fact that Duncan never had a single losing season in his career..
One guy just won finals MVP and lead his team back from down 3-1.
The other took 890 shots to score 60 points in a meaningless game in April for a team that drafted 2nd overall.
