While Lebron is on his "look at me" vanity tour, Kobe will no doubt be in the gym picking up new moves to add to his arsenal for next season, just like he did last season learning low-post shake moves from Dream.
Keep working on that jumpshot Bron. You know, in the five minutes of spare time you get while jet-setting and enjoying "being courted" like a princess.

Kobe can work on all the footwork he wants. He's not a better player than Lebron. Give Lebron Phil Jackson, Pau Gasol, Lamar Odom, Bynum and Artest and I guarantee a sweep of the Celtics. And domination like you've not seen.

While I'm not going to debate the veracity of the claim that Kobe's team is better than LeBron's, this shtick is a little old.
LeBron has had pretty damn good teams these last two years. You don't win 60+ games for two seasons in a row with a bunch of scrubs.
LeBron James vs. 50+ win teams in the playoffs....1-5.

I guess what I meant was people who I banned for 24 hours so I didn't have to deal with them... Common sense must prevail...
So that's what we're gonna do here.. We're gonna give you 24 hours to rest and relax and tell all the unfunny jokes you want...

It doesn't matter if those teammates keep disappearing in the playoffs.
When will people learn that the regular season means nothing?

Those two years he was bounced against the Suns (who were a MUCH better) team the Lakers won 45 and then 42 games. Both times they were the seventh seed and did not have home-court advantage.

The whole Kobe is better than Lebron because he wins championships is even older. The reason he wins championships is (duh) because he plays on championship teams. He's never won a title without another superstar player who wasn't top 5 at their position. And he's never won a title without Phil Jackson either.
So if you're going to attack Lebron for not winning titles without any kind of context, that's the arguement that is there against what you're saying.
Lebron has won 60+ games the last two seasons without even having another 1 all-star player next to him. Nevermind superstar. And he's won 60+ games with one of the worst offensive coaches in the league. Lebron has done what he's done in spite of his supporting cast. He lugged a team that started Larry Hughes and Eric Snow at one point into the NBA Finals. Kobe has never done anything even remotely close to that.
Look at the two teams in the Finals right now. Celtics: 4 superstar level players. Lakers: 3 superstars and then two guys who are among the best in the league at their role. AND the greatest coach of all-time, without whom neither Kobe or Jordan would have won nearly as many titles.
These are just facts. But don't let them get in the way of unfairly tearing down Lebron on a Cavs site.
If Lebron teams up with Bosh and Wade this summer, you'll see what winning is about.

Lebron took Eric Snow and Larry Hughes to the finals.
If you gave him the same team that Kobe bombed out with with Lamar and Caron Butler and Kwame Brown...he'd probably have won the title. Lebron's never played with two players as good as those two guys were at the same time.
Heck DWade took Lamar and Caron Butler to the second round his rookie year.
You're just making excuses. Kobe can't win if he doesn't have the most talented team. He's never once upset a superior team.
