<div class="quote_poster">Quote:</div><div class="quote_post">Give me two truths people refuse to accept. 1. Kobe Bryant is the best player in the NBA until LeBron starts playing defense consistently. Yes, I know King James led the league in steals, but playing passing lanes and individual D are two different things. The only reason Kobe didn't win MVP is because most sportswriters are men, and to them, Kobe's tattle-telling on Shaq was an unforgivable violation of a dearly held Man Law: Never snitch on your boy.</div> http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story...ht&lid=tab1pos1
It's about time someone broadcasted it... Damn people keep thinking that the steal is the only thing that matters in defense. D-wade n James ain't got nothing on Kobe's defensive intelligence.

<div class="quote_poster">kobe23 Wrote</div><div class="quote_post">http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/story...ht&lid=tab1pos1</div> When I stated this, they crucify me in justbball. Good to see somebody agrees with my position
If you think about it, LeBron and Dwayne Wade are the # 2 & #3 top offensive players in the game. Kobe's undisputed # 1. Neither LeBron or Dwane Wade are anywhere near the top defenders in the League. Kobe's top 5 as indicated by his consistently being voted to All-NBA Defensive first team. add it up. The gap between Kobe LeBron and Dwayne Wade is bigger than people realize.
Best guard no doubt. But, I always go for the big men. And it's either Tim Duncan or Kevin Garnett at this point, IMO.
I agree whit everybody here,is no question that KOBE is the best defender in his position in the league and also the best scorer
Kobe's the better defender out of all the 3, but I still think that it's a tad bit overexaggerated....this isn't one of the greatest defensive players we're talking about here, I still say Bron and Wade > Kobe although it's debatable.

It is like saying Aaron Burke > Shaq because well....I just think he's better. I's just pure on opinion and has nothing to do with unbiases opinion. Individually, Kobe is the best (the same reason the arthor stated). However when it comes to team impact, basketball-wise since the game is still a team-game, I say Tim Duncan is still the reigning champion. Also we're not talking about the greatest defender in nba history, we're talking about the one of greatest individual dedender in his position.
^^^there are numerous threads on here which explain my reasoning, so please don't come at me like that.
Seriously I hate all these people that are saying Lebron and Dwade are better than Kobe they say kobe cant pass and only gets 5 assits Thats pretty good if Kobe only has Lamar while Dwade has antoine walker, shaq, payton, jason williams, posey and lebron has illguaskas damon jones, larry hughes. They have a better supporting cast. If kobe was on either Miami or Clevland he would be getting like 9 assits and his defence Lebron gets crossovered all the time D wade is ok in defence but not comparable to kobe. Kobe is intelligent in passing, scroing, and defence, he can also shoot the three ball (Doesnt he have the most threes in one game) He can dunk, steal the ball, and gets blocks. Just because Kobe is injured right now and Lebron is having a pretty good start doesnt mean that Lebron is better than Kobe. Lebron is good but I think will never be as good as the legend KOBE BRYANT
What Is The Reason Nobody Admits That Kobe Bryant Is Today The Best Player In The Entire Nba. You Now What Read This, Maybe If I Have The Power To Do A Movie Of The Greatest Plays And The Greatest Games Of Kobe Bryant, Everyone Is Gonna Said This Guy Is Out Of This League.and Another Easy Criteria Put The Best 5 Players In The League Along Whit Kobe In Their Best Game, Who Had The Best Game? That Was Obvious My Man Kobe Bryant!

Then you lost us all by going on about a movie or something. So try to structure your argument before you just spit it all out at once.
I think you understand very well (akira) my comment was simple Kobe is the best in the league.is not just my opinion is the thruth.and the english is my second language im not gonna be perfect writing all the time period
