[B]Wow, Kobe or Iverson?

 

I'll take Kobe and the Lakers in 4 please. =) BTW, he's a pretty cool guy in person. Sat with him at Miyagis in Hollywood one night when he had his cast on. All the girls were coming up to him touching the cast and I had to straighten that out REAL quick. =P

 

NOT.....

Kobe can shoot over AI at will, and he can post him up no problems. AI can get around Kobe pretty easily, but if Kobe can recover in time his leaping ability will get a block or force him to take a tough shot. Also, since Kobe is taller and has a greater reach, he can keep a hand in AI's face on the perimeter. There's nothing AI can do to stop Kobe 1 on 1. Kobe has at least a chance. As far as team defense goes, AI is very quick so he get's lots of steals, but if he has to defend against bigger guards, he'll always need help.

 

Iverson EASY!!! I dislike Kobe. He thinks he is all that, and although he's good, that just pisses me off. I just like that Duck that he rides to his game in that commercial!

Ducati = Duck

 

They're both top notch players, but I think I'd rather have Kobe. They can both create on offense, and are clutch players. However, I think that Iverson's size will cause defensive matchup problems, whereas Kobe is big enough to guard anyone he'll play against.

Plus, the big thing with the Mavs is team chemistry on and off the court.
