James is good. NOWHERE near the best ever. WAY, WAY, WAY, WAY, WAY too many second place finishes to EVER move past Kobe or even Tim Duncan. In line with ZEKE from Cabin Creek (much more than just a similar number of failures). Having said that this (his) NBA finals was one (ONE) of the best ever.

Jesus christ. Putting Kobe ahead of him is so hilariously stupid. Sorry. And I say this as a Kobe fan. People who dislike James will always dislike him I suppose. Imagine Kobe on that 2007 Cavs team LOL -- you think they make the finals. How was Kobe doing pre-Gasol and post-Shaq?

James and Shaq would have won 6 titles in a row because James is the kind of guy that would let Shaq be Shaq. Kobe and Shaq are too fucking stupid to be very high on any list
-
And James has as many failures as Magic

Puppy three peat
Fuck off no one says he is the best ever. He is among the best ever. Just a matter of where other than 1 -
Kobe is my favorite basketball player ever and I was always defending him back when the Lebron v Kobe debates were going on like 4-5 seasons ago..... But James skyrocketed above him all time with this last title.
Lebron is #2 and there is no debate. In an era where almost every player is an athletic freak is the alpha freak. 3 rings wth 2 teams where he is the main guy in all 3 wins is better than Kobe being in the back seat of Shaq for 3 titles (it still counts towards Kobes greatness but it isn't the same) and winning 2 himself (go fuck yourselves Pau > Kobe people).
Lebron dominates in hardware just as much as he dominates in the stat books. -
I will say that if Lebron stays in Cleveland (no idea why he would leave but who knows) that he could win 2-3 more.
I see him being able to play elite pretty deep into his 30s... because of how well he takes care of himself off season and how each year he seems to tone down the athletic part of his game (since he knows he isn't getting younger) and does the floor general thing more and more. It will help the wear and tear of his body.
But the main thing is because of Kyrie Irving. He almost dominated as hard as Lebron in the finals. He is a winner and if Lebron eventually took a back seat to him they could still win titles. -
Pau won the Orlando series for Kobe. HTH.
Otherwise agree with post. -
World Peace won the Finals. Kobe was gagging in Game 7 against the CelticsGladstone said:Pau won the Orlando series for Kobe. HTH.
Otherwise agree with post. -

I personally think Curry is the best player of all time.
