Do you think James is good or Kobe is good

Regarding the comparison between James and Kobe, the analysis of different dimensions presents two completely different basketball philosophy and technical characteristics:
1. Scoring dimension
Kobe is known for his ultimate singles ability. His highest singles game in his career is still a modern basketball myth. His 12-time 40+ in the playoffs and his average of 30.2 points in the finals highlights his explosive scoring power. With his physical fitness and tactical wisdom, James achieved the only 40,000+10,000 milestone in NBA history, and averaged 27+7+7 per game in his career.
2. Leadership temperament
Kobe adopts a tough leadership model of "setting by example" and requires his teammates to match their training intensity and desire to win. This tough style has reached its peak in the 2010 revenge of the Celtics. James focuses more on teamwork and activates his teammates through organizational connections. His experience of leading three different teams to win championships has confirmed his ability to adapt to diverse environments.
3. Honor comparison
Kobe's five championships include two independent leadership teams to win the championship, especially the last two championships were rated as "blooming among the thorns"; James' four championships were supported by All-Star teammates such as Wade, Irving, and Davis. In terms of playoff data, James' total score and assists were the first in history, but key battles such as the 8-point performance in the 2011 Finals became a controversial point.
4. Key ball handling
Kobe is known for "take over the game". In the 2009 West Finals against the Magic and the 2010 tiebreak Celtics showed their big heart attributes per capita. James' choice of passing at the critical moment of the 2020 West Finals G5 sparked discussions, and his rational decision-making style is in sharp contrast to Kobe's "stop betting".
5. Industry evaluation
The active player group prefers Kobe's "winning the championship against the wind", while the media often praises James with comprehensive data. As Lao K pointed out: Kobe is paranoid and pursues the ultimate personal performance, and James pays more attention to tactical rationality. This difference is essentially the gap between classical defenders and modern forward organizers. Objectively speaking: James has an advantage in career length and data accumulation. Kobe is more recognized in terms of technical purity and spiritual appeal. This comparison is essentially a choice of two basketball values: "individual heroism" and "maximizing team benefits". As Barkley said: "Jordan-style domineering and rational command are greatnesses in different dimensions."
