LeBron James is in my opinion the best basketball player in the league today (NOT all time...Dont get it confusedl). Many people disagree and with good reason considering Kobe Bryant is still in the league and still playing at a high level, but with the amount of time LeBron has been in the league and the amount of things hes done I cant grant Kobe a pass just because he has 7 seasons on LeBron. I have provided a brief summary of my thoughts on LeBrons performance. Anyone who wants to bring up Kobes name will be directed here: "Kobe has scored 50+ on 13 different teams who were above .500, LeBron has 6 50 point games but none against a winning record."...When Kobe was at the stage of his career that LeBron is in right now (6th Season) he had 2 50 point games and they were against a Golden state team who won 17 games that year and a Memphis team who won 23 games...LeBron has 50 on a .500 team, the Utah Jazz were at .500 when LeBron dropped 51 on them (1-21-06) and they also finished the season at .500. Being a better JUMP shooter does not make a player a better shooter overall, Lay ups, dunks, jumpers, finger rolls, etc. are all shots. When talking about better shooters use the correct terms and stop trying to mislead people with the term "better shooter" "LeBron sucks at defense"...There are multiple types of defense and most dont get respect from the fans like they should (Note Shane Battier) if you think LeBron sucks on defense watch a Cavs game then talk to me. LeBron has never been a terrible defender and this year he is probably one of the top 5 defenders in the East. LA beat Cleveland both times they played this year, it wasnt a one on one game. Also there is only ONE way that will have any affect come playoff time and thats if they end the season with the exact same record and play each other in the Finals...Then LA would have home court advantage, otherwise the regular season is irrelevant once the playoff teams are determined. Winning in the regular season is necessary to get to the playoffs but once yo
