Answer 2

It would definitely come down to Kobe and Wade. I eliminate LeBron until he finds himself a good big man because till then he won't win any championships and he'll be the Dan Marino of basketball. Also LeBron plays absolutely no defense, he does not cover the opposing team's best player ever, the other 2 do. If the Lakers pick up KG this offseason then Kobe will be the greatest of all time because no matter what he'll average 30 points a game and he'll add more championships. D-Wade has a chance to be the greatest offensive player of all time, if he keeps developing his 3 point shot. He was absolutely unstoppable in the playoffs. Come on shooting over 70% against the league's best defensive team, PISTONS! He has great talent to be a good defensive player to though because he has some amazing rejections in his career.

Answer 3

Kobe is old, Wade is having his chance now and LeBron James is just geting started but with the Draft LeBron will be a better player then Kobe and Wade but can never top Jordan.

Answer 4

Kobe has the best chance b/c of one of his most hated personality traits...his ego. Kobe wants to be the greatest. Kobe strives to be the greatest. Kobe isn't afraid to do what he has to do to become the greatest. Take the Kobe/Shaq feud for example. Kobe won three rings with Shaq, but he still wasn't afraid to call Shaq on being fat and out of shape. No other player in the league at the time would have done that. Shaq sucked in the Finals, but Wade was still kissing his a$$. Kobe realized that he would have to win a million rings to be considered the greatest as long as Shaq was around, b/c the media would always look back and say that he won them b/c of Shaq. Also, he knew that out-of-shape Shaq was going to start breaking down really soon and he wouldn't be able to win his millionth ring. So, he began to look elsewhere for a franchise to lead to a title w/o the aid of Shaq. It just worked out that Shaq forced his way out of LA (yes, Shaq did it, so stop blaming Kobe), and Kobe was able to remain a Laker. Now, with three rings already, if Kobe gets just one more w/o Shaq, he immediately jumps into the conversation of best ever w/o the albatross. Right now, everyone is loving Wade b/c he's such a nice guy. In time, people will look back and throw in the Shaq factor. Some already do it. I've heard that if Lebron had Shaq, he'd have a ring, too. Actually, I agree with that. What will hold Lebron and Wade back is their desire to be the ultimate teammate. Lebron passes up crucial shots. Wade babysits Shaq so that Shaq won't whine like he did in Orlando and LA. In the Finals, Wade wasn't Jordan-like; Wade was Kobe-like. Wade played in the 4th quarter as if he didn't have a single teammate on the floor with him. The player formerly know as number 8 has made that an art form during his career, but instead of praise, he gets blame. The greatest decider will be defense. Kobe is one of the best defenders in the league and the most potent offensive player in the league. That takes a lot of skill, energy and talent. Lebron plays like a big Iverson. No on-ball defense; he just shoots gaps hoping for steals. Wade tries, and has the potential to be a really good defender, but I think his career will be shortened by injuries, but only time will tell. All in all, I think Kobe has the best chance of being the greatest basketball player of all-time. He already has 3 rings, so there is no realistic pressure on him to win anymore except from the Kobe haters. Lebron and Wade don't run the league like Magic and Bird, so it isn't likely that they are going to take turns winning all the titles for the next decade. It's going to be hard for Wade to win another one.

Answer 5

Kobe Bryant, he is the best player in the leauge right now and he still has a solid 5-9 years left. Dwayne Wade still isn't that great despite the championship and Lebron has a chance but isnt as good as Kobe.
