The Cavaliers play the Lakers on Christmas Day so this is great pre-game hype (as if it needed more.) I personally think LeBron would body Kobe because he’s a more physical player. That’s not to say that Kobe isn’t as good as LeBron but Bron Bron would muscle him all day. Wait till the end to see him say it.
That would be a tightly contested matchup. I honestly think that they would have to play each other numerous times because Kobe would win some and Lebron would win some. We’re not talking about Kobe versus Chris Douglas-Roberts. We are talking a one-on-one matchup between two of the NBA’s elite.
I agree! They both would when a few. I think in a 7 game one on one Kobe would take the seventh!

Sum players live for games, conflicts,and hype, Kobe, is that player. Game time he will be ready to win, BOTTOM LINE. MR-PG

physically it goes to Lebron, but mentally…Kobe. So I think Kobe would win a series of seven because Kobe has something Lebron doesnt…the taste of bitter defeat. For the most part, Lebron hasnt wallowed in the misery of a terrible season and come out stronger for it. Most greats have to get through that to get to the next level. The next level isnt a matter of skill but a matter of will!!!
mrbaldheadC…AGREE! Kobe would trump LeBron…What Kobe doesnt have as far as physique/muscling ability…his SKILLZ speak for themselves. Im not even a Laker fan…BUT Kobe is THEE BEST in the league…
Come on people..how many times have we learned how SIZE DOESNT MATTER…lol
Kobe one on one with anyone playing in the NBA not just LeBron.His skill level is just much higher than Lebrons and the fact the Lebron does not have a midrange jumper wouldnt help him.lol
KOBE WOULD WIN he’s very Skillful & Technical when it comes to the Game.
Lebron is powerful but not skillful as Kobe,Lebron doesn’t even have a Post-game for size, MAYBE if he develop a post-game he jussst might.

How did I miss this anyways no doubt in my mind LeBron would trump Kobe in a 1 on 1 competition.
Kobe has a slightly higher skillset but LeBron is the most physically opposing specimen the NBA has probably ever seen. He’s an great 1 on 1 defender and would easily muscle Kobe.
