Kobe, LeBron, or Jordan?

i thought i should blog about this because the other day in P.E. a kid came up to me and asked me who i thought the best player to ever play basketball was and naturally i said Michael Jordan then kid said i was crazy and told me that Kobe is better than M.J. ever was then some else chimmend in and that LeBron James was better than both of them. even thought i grew up in the Kobe LeBron era i was alive but not old enough to remember M.J.'s dynasty of the 90's so for all of the "fans" that believe Kobe or, LeBron are better than M.J. i would like to "compare" a few statstics with you. Michael Jordan made a total of 32,292 points over his career he is the thrid leading scorer in NBA history behind Karol Malone and Kareem Abdul Jabbar, he is tied with Wilt Chamberlin as the leading scorer in points per-game in the NBA. now to disclaim the fact that Kobe is better than LeBron in the top ten Points per-game Lebron ranks number 4 while Kobe doesn't rank at all Kobe Bryant has only been League MVP once while King James has been the been league MVP twice in back to back seasons (08-09, 09-10) and there are only 9 other players to do that including Michael Jordan, Wilt Chamberlin, Steve Nash, and Tim Duncan. in his rookie year Lebron averaged 20.9 points his rookie year while Kobe only averaged 7.6 Lebron averages 27.9 points in his whole career. while Kobe averages 25.4 now every bodies argument is going to be well Kobe has four rings yes he does but M.J. has six and he has been in the league 7 years longer than Lebron has so i would hope in thirteen years he would have at least one ring. also Lebron James came straight out of high school and was picked the #1 overall pick and yes kobe came straight out of high school as well but he was the #13 pick behind players like Ray Allen, Allen Iverson (who was the number one overall pick) Stephon Marbury, Erick Dampier, and Marcus Camby. i will end this blog by saying M.J., King James, and the Black Mamba, are all very talented and successful players but as far as these three players come if you ask me it goes 1. M.J. 2. King James and 3. Black Mamba
