Who is the Best Player in the NBA?

One of the most heated and debated topics in the NBA is who is the best. Everyone knows LeBron and Kobe are great, but who is better?

We are going to settle the debate once and for all right here.

The final contestants, after considering their work ethic, talent, attitude, and ability to win are:
***Kobe Bryant
***LeBron James
***Rajon Rondo
***Brian Scalabrine

The first person that can be eliminated from that list is LeBron. 0 rings = 0 chance. It doesn't matter how much talent he has, until he applies it and produces a championship ring he will never be No. 1

The next person that can be eliminated is Rondo. He is a unique, fast NBA star that has some very creative moves to get to the basket. But his inconsistency and inability to shoot the outside shot makes us eliminate him.

So now we are down to Kobe or Scal. The Black Mamba or the White Mamba. So let's make the case for each and they we will decide.

Although Scal may lack minutes, he makes up for it with amazing talent. His many notable accomplishments speak for himself. He is an NBA world champion. He shoots a better percentage than Kobe from 3-point range (a testament to his flawless shooting form and amazing ability to leap). Scal also has something that Kobe never got -- a college education at USC. Scal also dominates Kobe in the physical department, weighing more than 30 pounds of muscle mass extra and having a 3 inch advantage.

It's hard to make a case for Kobe when you compare him to Scal. He coasted off of the talent of Shaq, and all he does is shoot. His teammates continuously have proven this by moving away from LA when their contracts expire. Kobe can be a cancer to a team with his horrible attitude toward passing and the teamwork aspect of basketball while Scal thrives in any given environment due to his fantastic attitude and work ethic he brings to a team. Scal is also a steal in most fantasy drafts, so when given the opportunity to help my fantasy team, Scal helps significantly more for $1 than Kobe does for $78.

SCAL!!!!!!!!!
