I don't care if lebron or duncan or anyone is "better" than kobe. All I know is I never had more fun watching anyone play basketball in my lifetime. In terms of entertainment Kobe is my number 1.
Well most people who know basketball will tell ya neither one of them guys is better than kobe and that's a fact . lebron is a top 10 alltime player and me personally I'd put Duncan 12th alltime he has played in a great system with a hall of fame coach his whole career . it's absurd some people put Duncan ahead of shaq .. shaq always destroyed Duncan . shaq was always a better scorer than Duncan .. if only shaq could've made free throws he would've easily averaged 40 a game .. one day people will realize how great and dominate shaq truly was ..

+Josh Haynes shaq didn't always destroy duncan in the early 2000s playoffs shaq couldn't stop duncan from scoring the spurs problem has always been kobe. 2003 finals tim duncan near quadruple double to close the series one the best performances in the finals ever. there is only so much input pop can have on game hes a coach not a super hero if the coach just draws up a play to have a non 3 pt shooter in tim duncan hit a game tying 3 against the suns in the playoffs, pop can't make hom hit the shot. Could shaq do that. could shaq still consistent for so long even when his athleticism leaves with age. Would shaq be an all star at 38 years old and then score 30pts and get 11rebs against the athletic front court of the clippers in the playoffs.
Did you notice how Dwight had no emotion at the end after Kobe tied the game. That year he single handed pushed them into the playoffs. The masked man. People forget.. If he didn't get hurt and Lakers went further into the playoffs he should have easily won MVP
that team could've been great if they had Phil jackson .. u had kobe and gasol and Howard there was no reason they shouldn't have done better .. I really thought Dwight could be a hybrid shaq but I was wrong big time .. only thing Dwight has on shaq is rebounding shaq always averaged close to.30 a game . Howard was soft and weak and had no post game and he sucked at free throws which so.did shaq but shaq made up.for it with his pure dominance on offense . we may never see another center as strong and dominate as shaq..
