| Kobe Or Lebron: Who'll Have The Better Legacy When It's All Over? Mar 2nd 2013, 07:53 Michael Jordan already gave his answer - and his answer excited some controversies when ESPN made it public during the allstar weekend... Lebron didn't agree with MJ and Kobe showed Lebron why he still has a long way to go to measure up to the ever vicious black mamba at the allstar game by guarding Lebron and blocking two of his shots...
This is what the GOAT, Michael Jordan, said about the two of them:

NEW YORK) -- Hall of Famer Michael Jordan will turn 50 on Sunday and was asked who he thinks is the best player currently in the NBA.
Jordan told NBA TV on Thursday that Los Angeles Lakers forward Kobe Bryant is better than Miami Heat forward Lebron James, despite the fact that James is often compared to Jordan. Still, James only has one NBA Championship. Jordan retired with six championships and five MVP trophies.
"Five beats one every time I look at it," Jordan said of Bryant who has five NBA titles. "And not that (James) won't get five. He may get more than that, but five is bigger than one."
Bryant is a 15-time All-Star and also has one MVP trophy. Read On ABC News Radio: http://abcnewsradioonline.com/sports-news/michael-jordan-chooses-kobe-over-lebron.html#ixzz2LMaFIGMl
Lebron's reply: James was asked on Thursday before Miami's game against the Thunder about the ongoing debate.
"It doesn't matter to me," James said. "If you take Kobe one and I go second, it doesn't matter. I don't get too involved in what guys say about me... As long as I'm on the floor and I make plays for my teammates, I don't do what I do for other people's approval."

I think the message is winning takes precedent over everything — that's really the big key for kids coming up. LeBron knows that. I'm sure that's motivation for him to win as many championships as possible as it is for me to win as many as I can."
