For a few years now, there's been a heavy debate as to whether Kobe Bryant or LeBron James is the best player in professional basketball today.This has come to the surprise of many. After all, Bryant is now 31 years old, an age in which most professional athletes begin to decline.

A case could be made for the fa.
