Who is the better Olympian: Kobe or Phelps?
Kobe: rape charges (civil case he had to pay $$$$ to make it go away…), poor teammate, demands trades, ran Shaq out of LA – Shaq who really won the championships for LA
Phelps: Olympic god – best ever. rape charges = 0, doesn’t demand trades, IS a GOOD teammate and loves Shaq
Phelps.

Phelps

phelps did get busted for DUI when he was like 19. Kobe is in a team sport so you can't compare.
Your wrong dude below me, your still competing by yourself and relays are only 1/4 of his events. Kobe is playing on a team 5 of five everytime, can't compare.
You must not understand the questioners sarcasm. A fair comparison would Compare Phelps to Carl Lewis, Mark Spitz, Ian Thorpe or even tiger woods. Swimming is not a team sport like basketball, football. Your still out there by yourself. Water Polo is a team sport. Obviously no nothing about basketball.

Phelps. Kobe does one sport. Essential, Michael does all four (though it is one main sport (swimming) normally a swimmer will have one major stroke.)
Did you see his routine each day? I don't see Kobe swimming 2400 meters or whatever the equivalent to that would be.
They are both good at what they do but Phelps is definitely who I would want my kids resembling.
To the person that posted above me…
Swimming is a team sport. (Relays)!!!!!!!
I was on many a relays and even we cheered for our teammates. Your comment makes no sense!! Swimming is much an individual sport as it is a team sport.

Hmmm…something tells me you already know the answer to this question.
References :
Michael Phelps, obviously.
what has Kobe done? NOTHING. (except choke)
References :
Kobe = 100 million $$$ for 7 years…
Phelps = 10,000 for 7 years…you do the math!
lol…….2EZ

phelps can just swim fast big deal so kobe

If the Olympics Baskeball was one on one competition, I wouldn’t be surprised if he torched everyone that played against him.

What the hell kind of question is this, and how are you going to compare?
This is Kobe’s first olympics.
Its funny…The kind of questions people make up just to stir up some attention.

In the Olympics Phelps with his 10 useless medals. So after the olympics whats next? he goes back to school? You won’t hear from the guy again for 4 years. In a couple of months Kobe will be on the news everyday.
References :
Phelps. Hes like one of the best olympians ever!
References :
Let’s see,
Kobe have 0 gold medal so far.
Phelps have 10 gold medals so far.
I think it’s pretty close competition. Kobe just need to play 40 more years of basketball at the Olympic to catch.
References :
Dumb ?. It’s obviously Phelps. All you want to do is rip on Kobe. By the way Phelps is a better Olympian than Shaq too dummy, just in case you didn’t know.
