No doubt Kobe Bryant, he has more ability in shooting jump shots than D-Wade and Bryant seems better when it comes to go to the hoop.
Bryant is way better than D wade, Wade is overrated so badly when Kobe here has been getting his teammates envolved by shooting 7 shots less than last year with 5.5 assist per game.
Look at how Bryant played during the all star game and how Wade played.
Wade is not in the same League Bryant is.~

Love him or hate him, Kobe Bryant is better - in fact, a lot better - than D-Wade. Both players are very quick and athletically gifted, but Kobe is bigger so that gives him an edge in size and strength. Likewise, they both possess exceptional offensive skills that they can create their own shots even in the most impossible situations. However, Kobe, again, has the edge in competitive fire as shown by his countless clutch shots and buzzer-beaters. Kobe is also smarter and handles the ball better. On the other hand, Wade is fast becoming the king of turnovers. And as far as defense is concerned, it's a gross mismatch. Bryant can defend for sure although, unlike MJ or Pip, he can't get his offense and defense going at the same time. Wade absolutely can't defend. On the brighter side, the thing going for D-Wade is that he's a few years younger than Kobe and is willing to learn. In a few years, he'll mature and perhaps unseat Kobe as the league's best player.

Keep in mind I am a huge wade fan...
It's Kobe. Not even a question in my mind. He is a much better scorer, much better defender, better rebounder, more clutch, and a better leader. He is a better scorer because he's got a fantastic and ultra-reliable jumpshot along with thousands of moves. When his jumpshots is not going he can drive to the basket very well as well. He's a better defender because he can lock a superstar down when need be. Better rebounder is purely on stats. He is more clutch because he always takes over in 4th quarters and a bit better than Wade at hitting the dagger. He is a better leader because, as Wade said himself, Wade is just not a vocal guy and won't motivate. Kobe has matured into that kind of guy.
They are, IMO, the 2 best players in the league, but Kobe is just on another level than anyone else right now.

is this seriously a question... Rings Bryant - 3, Dwayne Wade -1, all though bryant has been in the league longer he is the best player in the NBA. He is the best man to man defender he can take anyone one on one and he's a team player. However Wade is around 5 years younger than Bryant so my answer is for one season then I would take Bryant for a Franchise i would take Wade because he has more years left than bryant

screw dwade fans, its kobe easy. dwade wouldnt have a winning team without shaq on his team, but kobe is doing great this year...without shaq. idk y people keep saying dwade, just cuz kobe blew out their home team or w/e. kobe is a better jump shooter and he can drive to the rim, wade can just drive. most of wades points r probably off free throws that he makes cuz he drives in completely out of control. no one wouldve even heard of him if shaq hadnt gone to miami.

wade is more talented, more of a clutch player, and is a team player, unlike kobe...i think the person who said wade was very overrated had the wrong name in there, KOBE is the one who is tremendously overrated...he chucks up 167 shots a game and scores his points, but then has the panache to criticize gilbert arenas for a good scoring night by saying that he doesn't pass enough...he needs to grow up and just play ball like d-wade does

D Wade...!
He seems less of an ego-maniac! I'm not saying he has no ego (I don't think you are allowed in the NBA without one)... I just think he is far more of a team player than is Kobe!
Kobe could have been part of a dynasty but he has helped to undermine that in a big way!

D-Wade looks a bit quicker to the hoop. Bryant seems the better jumpshooter. Both have great games that are close to being equal. Wade is younger and has time to grow, but Bryant has peaked and will soon diminishing, so I'd go with Wade.

Uhhhhh, you spelled Bryant wrong. Anyway, its Kobe Bryant. Dwyane Wade is very overrated, but Kobe actually has stats and rings to prove what he's got.
