    If that would be based on stats, there's no other NBA player better than Wilt Chamberlain. 100 pts in a single game until today and the coming years wont be broken. The closest to that is 81 pts by kobe. Wilt a monster in the ring, his stats doesn't compare, not even close. ppg . 49 rpg 20 blks 5

    The best stat player in the NBA is Lebron or Kevin Durant or maybe Melo before he got hurt.

    Stats ALONE don't determine it because depending on what teammates they play with or what coaching style they play in, the stats will be different for everyone. Some teams also blow out other teams more often and therefore those stars for those teams won't play as much in the 4th and won't pad their stats.

    Its determined by impact on a ball game and team. Like as if all the superstars had the same role players, which ones team would win. How much they change a game, and how much ways they can impact a game and shift the defense with all the dimensions they have.

    Its not just down to Kobe and LeBron for this title. 5 to 6 players can have an arguement made for them that they are the best and no argument should be ignored or overlooked just because people are all over Kobe and LeBron.

    From the way I see it, Dirk Nowitzki is the best player.

    Nowitzki: He impacts a game more than anyone on the planet. He led the league in efficiency 3 years in a row before and for this entire decade he has only turned the ball over 8.5% of the time. THATS FOR THE ENTIRE DECADE, only 8.5% turnovers, one of the leagues best marks, if not the best. He impacts a game in ways people can't see, so thats why they pick Kobe/wade/Bron Over him. He makes shot blockers non defenders, he can lure Dwight or Duncan away from the basket so that his teammates can drive without being blocked. That means that he makes them non-defenders. So if Dwight is a top 5 player in the NBA (according to most), when he plays Dirk he is a top 15, because Dirk takes away his defensive abilities by luring him from the hoop. Nowitzki can post just like any big and make perimeter plays which other bigs can't. Nowitzki has more dimensions in his game than any other player. If you guard him with a big, he will drive past, and teams try to go small on him. That creates mismatches all over the floor because if the team go's small that also means less rebounds for them and other mismatches. He is the only one to take a team to the finals in the West with no other allstar or inside player. The only success Kobe/wade and other elite perimeter players had was when they had shaq/gasol or an inside presence and vise versa. Lebron did it in the east but Dirk carried his team in the west. He rebounds at 11 per game in the playoffs and thats the same as all the other bigs that are considered dominant rebounders yet he plays further from the hoop. As a 7 footer he dominates the post and creates open shots for other players like Shaq/Duncan, but he also makes perimeter plays like Wade/Kobe. Those players need that other complimentary source but Nowitzki is BOTH. He is the only 7 footer that passes off the dribble in pick and roll situations. His percentages are amazing because he is always around 48-50%fg/ 37-41%3pt and 88-91%ft. He is the most efficient player and of course Kobe/Wade/ and bron are more talented but Nowitzki impacts a game more than all three of them and therefore….

    His level of impact is unmatched and he is THE WORLDS BEST PLAYER!
