Did you see Kobe or Jordan having BS games like that in the PLAYOFFS nonetheless?
All the time???
Everyone has off nights. Lebron has one of the all time records for most consecutive nights with 20+ points. I think he's at liberty to have a bad game every now and then. Kobe's BS games come FAR more often. Jordan had quite a few too. All the "greats" do.

Lebron is a great player, but as of right now, he should not be considered to be in the same league as Kobe in terms of individual talent. Perhaps in a few years, but he still has a ways to go.

I think thats a bit of an stretch to say they are in "different leagues". The closest player to Kobe Bryant's caliber is Lebron James. Kobe is a better player no doubt, but they aren't that far apart. Especially when you consider the age of Lebron James, its scary how good he is going to be.
That same comment goes to Chris Paul. Chris Paul is already the best point guard in the league by a significant margin. Chris Paul and Lebron James are going to be insane with more experience under their belt.
Its my prediction that as soon as Lebron James is traded to another team(and he will) he will immediately win an MVP as well as being considered the "best player in the league". While Kobe has always been a good player, it hasn't been until this year that his talents have actually been on showcase. When you play with better players, you just play better. Lebron does not have the luxury of having a good basketball team to play on. His true talents have yet to be shown. He basically carries his entire team on his back, which is extremely impressive to say the least. Reminds you of what Kobe has been doing for the past few years, yet hasn't really gotten any recognition.... until now.
Back on topic of Kobe and Lebron. I think really Kobe has only two advantages over Lebron. They are pretty significant though. Kobe's jump shot is far superior. Lebron's is good, but as someone stated earlier, its just not Kobe caliber. Biggest advantage Kobe has though is his defense. He's easily one of the best defenders in the league. Lebron isn't bad by any means, but he's definitely not as hard nosed and in your face as Kobe. Defense comes from experience, something Kobe has a huge deal of over Lebron.

LAWL
The Jazz have no answer for Kobe. He was guarded by every Jizz on the floor and they bumped and bodied him, and played good D, but if he doesn't score he can still dish.
The pass he just made to Gasol for a dunk under the basket was one of the best assists I've ever seen. He went through two defenders through the legs and then spinning, got another defender in the air, and passed around that defender's body perfectly into Gasol's raised hands for a dunk.
The guy is better than any other player in the league by a good margin.
And he's an asshole, like Tygerwoody.
