    Kobe is one of the best players I've ever seen.

    That said, he's a childish punk bitch. A guy at his level needs to play with more class than he does. He lowers himself to the competition (Artest) instead of setting the example like LeBron or MJ. Kobe was a pampered upper class kid who adopted a street thug mentality when he made it to the NBA right out of highschool, but still whined when he couldn't win without Shaq. If the finals end up being Cleveland/LA, LeBron is going to prove once and for all who the best player in the world is when he quotes Austin Carr and tells Kobe "get that weak stuff out of here" as he denies him left and right.

    Oh yeah, and last year LeBron was the MVP but Kobe got his "lifetime achievement" award since the NBA snubbed him during Nash's second title.

    Yeah, Kobe's moving up on the all-time scoring list- he'll crack the top 10 for sure, and Kareem's all time record is not out of the question if he can stay healthy and score at his current rate for another 6-7 years. But outside of LA, he's never going to get the love MJ did. Colorado ensured that.

    And did poor widdle Kobe get his feelings all hurt when none other than Jerry West said LeBron has surpassed Kobe? Too bad it's true. In my book KB beats LBJ in one aspect- and that's outside shooting, and LeBron's catching up fast.

    That in my opinion is what being cocky is all about ! who cared about paul pussy before KG and Ray Allen got to the celtics and won the title ?

    A lot of people cared about a guy who averaged 20pts, 6 boards, and 4 ast a night on really bad teams. He just didn't get the national media love because BOS was terrible. Paul ain't as good as Kobe for sure, but he ain't no slouch either (before or after the arrival of KG and Allen).
