I mean Kobe could stop tomorrow & it would be as noticeable as ARod stopping baseball, it's over for both in terms of relevance or major achievement.

Yet if Lebron did stop at 29 in the middle of his prime, nah....what he's done so far I'd still be good with saying it.

Since he's been MVP of the league 4 times to Kobe's 1, plays/defends 5 positions to Kobe's 1, passes/rebounds better, scores more efficiently & is a better teammate with a greater effect on other players.

I also happen to think Lebron would easily trump Kobe's ring total if he had begun with eight seasons of prime Shaq.

And why you assume I'm mad for saying that, I don't know.

Lebron's not looking at Kobe, he's looking past him.
