Who would you rather have on your team?
Comparing these two players is no easy feat. They are both the best in their own respect, however, the question isn't impossible. It comes down to personal choice so the answer will, of course, not be decisive.
Personally, I'd take Lebron. Here's my reasoning: he has proved that he can win games with a sub-par supporting staff. Kobe has had Shaq, Pau, Lamar, and Bynum. Lebron has single handily built his team into one of the top three teams in the NBA. His skills are uncanny.
I have to give my respects for Kobe. If the question were changed to; "who would you rather have on your team in the fourth quarter, down 5 in the seventh game of the finals" I would have to take Kobe. Kobe has proven he can take big shots and make them. He seems to get better the more pressure he has on him.

They are both the best player in the league at their position which makes a head to head comparison difficult. As of right now, Kobe is the best player in the league. Let's face it, while he is not Michael Jordan, he plays more similar to Michael than any other player in the league. I see LeBron as more of a Oscar Robertson version 5.0. The guy does everything for his team and is a tremendous leader. However, until he gets good players around him, I seriously doubt his ability to win a championship.
