MJ isn't superiot to Bill Russell at winning, doesn't stop most everyone realizing the obvious, that MJ was better. Same thing with Lebron/Kobe, it's obivious who is the better player.
It's not just one or the other (rings or stats). It's a combination of both. Will LeBron need 5 rings to pass Kobe? IMO, probably not if he continues putting up numbers like he is. But right now he is firmly behind Kobe in BOTH stats and rings.

Really? The rings and total stats obviously, but in career averages and projection, he's going to blow away Kobe. As for rings, we'll see eventually. He doesn't need 5 to be considered better than Kobe. Most people already consider him #2 all time with just 2 rings.
Kobe has 31700 points, 6601 rebounds, 5925 assists, and 2455 combined S+B in 18 seasons
LeBron has 23170 points, 6086 rebounds, 5791 assists, and 2119 combined S+B in 11 seasons
If LeBron averages just 27/6/6, combined 2 S+B this year, and plays every game, his totals will be 25384 points, 6578 rebounds, 6283 assists, and 2283 combined S+B.
So he would pretty much have Kobe's Rebound, Assist, and S+B numbers in 12 seasons as opposed to Kobe's 18, and only short 6k points.
Kobe has a higher "total" count because he's played 7 more seasons than LeBron, but LeBron is the better overall player that we haven't seen in a LONG time.
Who has had a better PER, ortg, drtg, and WS to his team? LeBron
Kobe's BEST PER season was 28.0, LeBron's AVERAGE is 27.8. LeBron's best was 31.7 and that ties Jordan's best
