I think this is a good comparisons....but I'd have to say Flash. Wade's the only one to LEAD a team to a championship and win FINALS MVP(Flash led Shaq). Kobe was led by Shaq and NEVER WON FINALS MVP, and Penny was led by Shaq, made it to the finals, but didn't win.

Penny did nothing after Shaq left him so he's out. Kobe was a one man show when Shaq left but did nothing for his team, only his own stats, no team concept in that guys head. If he doesn't learn that soon his chances are finished for another run at a championship. Wade has a tonne of talent and is one of my favourite players but his true worth will be shown when he has to run a on his own. He may have led Shaq but Shaq is still the most dominant player in the game as shown this year by his return and subsiquently the Heats return to a shot at the play offs and possibly a run for the title this year.
So heres the thing, Kobe is a more talented player, better shot and what not. (I hate him so that was hard to say) But, if I you want a player to win a championship i'll take Wade, he doesn't have to take every shot even though he could and have numbers right there with Kobe's. He makes everyone around him better and doesn't mind passing up a tough shot so someone else can have a layup where Kobe needs to take every shot. The Lakers should of walkedall over the league with the team they had when Shaq (in better shape) Kobe and a great team barely won cause Kobe was a greedy turd. What a waste of a possible dynisty.
Long story short take Wade.

I'm not sure Wade is at his prime yet. So this is hard to answer.
I think one of one, Kobe might be the best player in the game. He makes shots from crazy angles with two and sometimes three players guarding him. He has lost some of his agressiveness going to the basket. When he is agressive though, he embarrasses defenders.
Wade is a great all around player. I think at some point he may surpass Kobe's abilities, but not yet.
I was never a fan of Penny Hardaway.
In a one on one game between Kobe and Wade, Kobe would win iin my opinion. Kobe has better defensive skills and he can shoot from anywhere.

I would say Wade because he is a better all around player. Kobe may be a better shooter and a little better handling the ball, but D-Wade is the total package. He makes everyone around him better, not to mention his rebounding, assists, and defense. D-Wade defines the word stud. Kobe is one of the best scorers you will ever see, but is he really as explosive as Wade? I don't think so.
I wouldn't classify Penny with these two guys (even though I liked him back in the day), simply because he only had a few good years, and then he fell off the map completely....Kobe has been around for a while and Wade will be around forever.....both of these players are more explosive too....you didn't see Hardaway taking over games the way they do.

Dwayne Wade is much better than the other two. Kobe Bryant dosen't know the meaning of the word pass and Penny wasn't that good of a shooter. And D-Wade is a leader while the other two were lead.

I would say Dwyane Wade. Penny doesn't even come close to either Kobe or Wade. Kobe is a great player, but in my opinion, he doesn't make those around him better (at least until this year, when he's been less of a ball hog). Wade knows how to lead and get everyone involved.

Dwayne Wade.
D-Wade gets more of everything than Kobe. More PPG, RPG, and probably RPG but I haven't checked that stat yet. On top of that he won a championship where he didn't rely on the center to score most of the game winning shots.
And I don't care if Kobe scored 81 points in a single game, it doesn't matter because that was just ONE SINGLE game against a crappy team that didn't play defense. If Dwayne was as selfish as Kobe, he could've easily scored more than 81 against the Raptors that year. But Dwayne isn't like that, he knows how to pass the ball as well as score.

That's tough. Aurguments can be made for both Wade and Kobe and the common denominator there would be Shaq. Penny doesn't even belong here.

I would also have to say D-Wade. On the court, he and Kobe are elite players, but their off-court conduct is the big difference in my decision.
Penny had a prime? Where was I when that happened? Did I blink and miss it?

Wade or Kobe. Hardaway is good but not as Wade or Kobe.
