Since Lebron James has entered the NBA people argued who was better between him and Kobe Bryant or who was closer to playing on the same level as the great Michael Jordan. People use the argument that Kobe is playing closer to Jordan’s performance level because of the amount of champion ships he has won 5 rings to Jordan’s 6 rings.
