Neither one won a title as a rookie, so clearly the correct answer is the write-in vote for Darko Milicic.

Oh these threads.....

Whos better i think Lebron because these Lakers fans think they all that when they holding onto the 8th spot

I'd like to donate an are and an 're to this post. I'm all out of question marks and capital I's or I'd donate those as well. Hopefully another kind soul comes along with a surplus of those.

In these troubling times of economic despair and a national war on terror, it would not be prudent to squander our precious "are"s and "''re"s and punctuation willy nilly. At this point we should just encourage everyone to repurpose all the surplus "lol"'s that have been abandoned along the roadsides.

Dude you don't even lift...

I haven't a clue what we'd repurpose "lol"s into, so maybe I should just stfu

LIFT WHAT!?!??!

Kobe has much better basketball skills, so if I was building a team I'd go with Kobe. Lebron is just athletic. His shot has not improved to all-star level like other scoring small forwards( Durant, Anthony). He just plays like a full-back and barrels into the lane and tries a lay up.

Absolutely disagree. There is nobody who can play all 5 positions at any time like Lebron. You haven't watched too much basketball this year obviously because his FG and 3PT FG percentage is the highest its ever been. He has a higher FG percentage than Durant AND a higher FG AND 3pt percentage than Anthony. Lebron has

A. A better FG percentage than Kobe for both this season and their respective careers.

B. A better 3pt FG percentage than Kobe and is EQUAL to Kobe's 3pt percentage throughout their respective careers.

C. A better Assist/Turnover ratio than Kobe both this season and throughout their respective careers.

try backing a false fact with some real facts next time

I would take Lebron for sure. He is simply too overpowering and athletic. Kobe has a lot of heart when he plays but Lebron's intensity and maturity is making him super scary. Has he even peaked yet?

First of all, I'm sorry I did not make it clear. I would rather have Kobe at SG then have Lebron at SF. I am not comparing the two, but o well.

A) Yes, while shooting 130 times less from range, probably layups that he bulldozed for.
B) Lebron has shot 1/3 less threes than Kobe has. Generally most of the time, percentages go down the more times a shot is attempted. That's why there are shot attempt minimums for league leaders in percentages. If you look at Calderon who is currently leading 3pt percentage, he has shot 200 less than Kobe. But, he has the higher percentage. Percentages can't be everything. Over a career, Kobe has attempted 1,800 more three pointers.

C) Lebron's Turnover Ratio is 11.1 this season and Kobe is 10.6. So this means LeBron's a better pg? I don't understand this stat being relevant here considering neither are only point guards.

Now back to shooting at small forward level. Durant has a greater 3pt fg, but lower overall fg because Durant doesn't push people out of the way for layups/dunks. Durant has a better Scoring efficiency. But in reality, we both have our minds set and we can sit here for hours picking and choosing stats against certain players and excluding others. So I declare it a wash, because I think we both have better things to do.
