Why does everyone have to bring up the age argument when defending lebron...?

alright he is 25... jordan won one when he was 28? but tim duncan won when he was 21, magic won when he was 21, tony parker when he was 22, and even darko milicic got one when he was 18! but does that make them the greatest to ever play? no... maybe tim duncan arguably the greatest pf ever and magic johnson was the best pg ever but that still doesnt make them the best.... lebron is just 25 but that doesnt guarantee him a ring within the next 3 years including this one... true.... kobe having 4 rings does not make him the better player.. just more accomplished... kobe was better because of his all around game, except for passing and rebounding which go to lebron..... kobe was a pretty decent shot blocker back in the day and made some great highlight blocks just like lebron... but his defense wasnt just stats... he was a great on ball defender which got him on all those defensive teams... and kobes offense is much more polished and skilled... he can post, great footwork, shoot outside jumpers and freethrows, and get to the rim.... lebron is mainly just forcing his body to the rim and drawing contact and getting to the freethrow line... most of his points come from the freethrow line and layups.... and that is why kobe is/was better.... lebron may be only 25.. .but who knows? he might never really polish his offense and defense and will just fade quickly with age when he loses his athleticism and has nothing left....
