Right now?, Lebron.  I don't think MJ can move as fast anymore.\nMJ in his prime vs Lebron right now?, MJ.  He didn't just carry his team, he made everyone better.\nMJ in his prime vs Lebron in his prime? To be determined.

this is a hard one. Both of them are equally skilled. Wade has his own unique style and so does Lebron James. I think you will be able to know if the 2 would go on one on one.

Yes, Kobe Bryant and LeBron James are at par with Jordan's basketball - and a scary thought is that both have got many years of basketball ahead of them.

Kobe is BETTER then michael jordan, maybe not in stats but if you play michael jordan in his best season and kobe in his, Kobe would win the game.... People say kobe is a ball hog and the reason for that is his teammates cant score, michael was also a ballhog....  also kobe wasnt born with basketball skills he had to work through it lebron and jordan were. Kobe worked hard to become as good as he is.. Also if lebron has shaq right now he wouldnt be avering these numbers. Kobe had shaq when shaq was at his bestt!!!

james and johnson. kobe is a ball hugger theres no chance he can beat james and jonhson alone. as for jordan, he is arguable the greatest basketball player who ever lived, but with the ball on kobe, he's just another spectator.

mcgrady is my favorite player, lebron is my second favorite, but i would have to say lebron is the best overall player in the NBA right now. he can make great passes. make steals and block shots. he can drive to the hoop anytime he wants because of his power and can hit a nice range shot. plus he is soooooo fun to watch because of his dunks. he also averages around 25-7-7. so lebron is the best. no, i seriously doubt that lebron will ever win a championship, ilgauskas is good, but not good enough to help lebron james carry the cavs to become a NBA championship calibur team. larry hughs has medical problems and probably will not be able to play for the remainder of this season and after he returns from his injuries, he still will not be as good of a player as he was when he was in washington with the wizards. drew gooden is a very inconsistant player and will not be able to contribute much to his team against all the good power forwards in the game today. such as kevin garnett, and tim duncan.

lebron is already better than kobe, and when it's all said in done, it wont even be close.\nLebron's overall numbers are better, and he is a far better team player.\nif you compare kobe's first 3 seasons OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL to LeBron's first 3 seasons OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL, you'll laugh.

Lebron:\n\nPasses like Magic, scores like Jordan. Most uncanny thing I've ever seen

i have to agree with most people here.. he's NOT YET better than MJ but he can definitely be..as long as he keeps on focusing in his career and his game.. for some reasons, i really think he is "LIKE MIKE".. come to think of it, MJ was and still is his idol.. MJ just looks like better because in his time, only him was the 'KING' of basketball.. being the 'Air' and everything.. yeah Bron may be 'King James', but there are many out there ready to try to dethrone him.. my point is, i really think MJ and Bron are equally gifted, though Bron may prove that he's better..but it's too early to tell.. the difference between the two of them is, MJ has no one to compete with in his days- yeah there are some but no one can come close to him in those days.. unlike today with King James, he has many competitors, like his friends Melo and D-Wade.

both are the best players in the nba, n are in a time with little help around them. I say Lebron because of his ability to pass the ball. Kobe could beat LBJ one -on-one, because kobe is THE BEST 1 on 1 player......Also Lebron is really big and fast. his 248 lbs, enought to throw tmac,kobe,allen,redd,wade etc.... out of the paint for he can dunk!but yet he runs as fast as 6'4 210-ish lbs wade n steve francis

Real simple.  Kobe can do anything on the offensive end as well if not better than LeBron, yet he plays FAR better defensively than LeBron.  Comparing them currently is easy, Kobe is a better player.  LeBron is a better player at this stage than Kobe was at the same age though.  LeBron has the potential to be as good and maybe a little better than Kobe, but not until he learns how to play defense and then put forth the same effort at both ends.

yes, i believe that jordan is a cut above the rest. but lebron and kobe are closing in fast. it remains to be seen

lebron is better than kobe because all kobe knows how to do is shoot the ball lebron knows how to shoot the ball pass the ball and rebound the ball thats what makes lebron a total package lebron is 6'8 really quick and real strong. Kobe may be a better shooter but lebron is a petter all around player

I would go for LeBron James.  Compare to Kobe, LJ has more rebounds, assists and FG percentage.  Steals and blocks are about the same.  Kobe is a terrific basketball player, but if you consider all stats, LeBron is more complete.  \n\nBTW, LeBrone is 2 inch taller and six years younger than Kobe.  8-in taller and nine years younger than A.I.

You should never trade Lebron for anybody other than Michael Jordan.  The Matrix needs Steve Nash to help him make a highlight.  Lebron is a human highlight reel!  The only thing he needs are his Nikes.
