I'm one of the biggest Kobe fan's you'll find..and Kobe could NOT do this. He could carry his team to a win like this single handidly...but in the same manner King James did? No way.
How would you rank Lebron's scrubs to Kobe's scrubs? Most of those guys would not even start for the Spurs or Pistons.

LeBron has out muscled everybody on the court...He gets fouled on every dunk & it does not even slow down his momentum....
Lebron is amazingly quick for how big he is. He's got Magic's body with Kobe's speed. And only 22. I guess we'll be seeing a lot of this guy.
Kobe would have given up halfway into the 1st overtime.
kobe been ting on dudes for years..... lebron had one good game when it matters..........
Kobe wouldn't have drove it in and dunked it either..he would have taken his 18 foot fadeaway he loves so much..
lol...im not a Lakers fan, but what the are you smoking. This is Lebrons ONLY game where he took over.
kobe could have done what lebron did
On the road in the ECF in the pivotoal Game 5 with 3 minutes remaining in the 4th..lol...im not a Lakers fan, but what the are you smoking. This is Lebrons ONLY game where he took over.

Thats what I'm thinking too. He relies more on his jumper than Lebron does. I think Kobe could had done the same thing. But I still think that Cleveland has better supporting players than LA. You at least have to respect Hughes and Illguskas. Some of the crap I see Odom forcing up always has me scratching my head. I think Kobe on Cleveland could accomplish the same thing if focused.
With 3 minutes remaining in the fourth, how much were they down by? He was able to tie the game. Your a Lakers fan but i'm sure somewhere along the 3 rings Kobe was able to get, there was a spectacular performance.
The fact is, Kobe has only accomplished with other backing him up.
There's a reason the Lakers won 3 Championships in a row: Shaq, Kobe, Horry, and Fisher.
(I'm probably forgetting someone important, but I don't really feel like going back to 2002 and looking up the Laker roster.)
Simple answer: No, he could not.
He'd have demanded a trade while at the FT line.
kobe did it against the pistons in 03/04 and he choked big time.....
Come on now...lets not be silly...great performance by king james. However it still remains.
Kobe>Lebron
Off the top of my head, Kobe had two comparable performances to this, both in the 2000 playoffs: Game 7 versus Portland (WCF), Game 4 versus Indiana (Finals). I know I'm forgetting something, and I'm sure he had a great game or two versus Phoenix in the '06 playoffs.
One of the guys on TNT (I forget which one), last night said it. We're watching LeBron grow up. Kobe has years on him.
He'll be incredible if he sustains this kind of play. Every game, every night is a ways away, but his potential is intense.
Let's not forget Kobe Bryant single handedly taking his team to the playoffs two straight years and that he doesn't have 2 former All-Stars on his team, and that he plays in the WEST, not in the EAST.
But, in all honestly, I don't think Kobe could do it. The dude is inguardable, but he would probably settle for jumpers instead.
Kobe has done what LeBron did. The 81 point game against Toronto and the 62 point game against Dallas where he outscored the Mavericks through his three quarters of play.
Kobe has never done it in the playoffs. He didn't have to with Shaq at his side. He hasn't lately either, but then again, the Lakers have a harder road than LeBron's Cavs have in the playoffs.
Of course he could have. He's done it before.
I doubt Lebron could do this against the 03-04 Pistons. O3-04 Pistons>>>06-07 Pistons. Kobe probably could light them up as well but maybe not that incredible.
Great Performance by Lebron...1 game, great...what the other games when he laid an egg....in the same series no less. Can Kobe do this.... yeah, I remember a game when Shaq fouled out in the 4th...Kobe took over, got it to OT and scored like 8-10 straight points to win it.
That was game 4 of the 2000 NBA Finals at Indiana. I remember it well. Reggie Miller missed a 3 pointer that would've won that game for the Pacers
of course Kobe can do this. , Manu did it in 2005 vs. Suns.
