Let's see...Option of 2 guys that can single-handedly take over a game. However...One has the ability to make the team around him better even if he has an off night when I need him to win this one game???

Gimme Lebron!!!

Important note: Kobe's reputation as a "killer" at the end of games remains overblown. The site In depth coverage of the NBA from 82games.com just posted a study of game-winning shots from the last five-plus seasons (regular seasons and playoffs since the 2003-04 season) that revealed Kobe was shooting 14-for-56 (25 percent) with one assist and five turnovers, and made 12 of 15 free throws. So let's say that was 70 possessions total, including Sunday night. ... He only had one assist in nearly six years??? That's why Orlando quadruple-teamed him in that spot. Kobe is a phenomenal streak shooter, and he has a real talent for catching fire with a lead and closing games out ... but you can stop him in one-shot situations simply because he's his own worst enemy. He wants to be a hero, he's shooting it, and that's that.
