MovieChat Forums > Kobe Doin' Work (2009) Discussion > let the arguments between kobe and lebro...
LeBron is his own man. Kobe is a mimic of MJ. It’s why Kobe is insecure and petty.
shareWhat is Lebron's number? What was Lebron's favorite team growing up? Why does he throw the powder up in the air? Lebron is the one that wears Michael Jordan's number. Lebron favorite team growing up was not the local team but the Cavs hated rivals. Michael Jordan knocked the Cavs out of the playoffs multiple times. Who grows up in a basketball town and idealizing the player who brought misery to your town time after time?
Michael Jordan used to take powder and smack his hands together in the face of the Bulls annoucers before he went into the game. That is why Labron does the powder ritual like his ideal #23. For all the thing wrong with Kobe the MJ thing doesn't work if you compare him with Labron.
LeBron has become a man. Kobe not so much. Also LeBron he admits it, like a homage, but Kobe is a mimic like a plagiarist alters his jersey by “one”. That’s what frauds do.
As I said on another thread:

It used to be who is the next MJ? Kobe is the last of that line.
With LeBron and after it will be: who is the next LeBron?
Have you seen them in person?
To me, it’s not even close.
And that's a question I don't know the answer to, by the way.
Naa Your Completely wrong if you think Lebron is better...I bet he'll never win a championship...Kobe's got 3 and is a veteran now and Just as good if not better then ever. If your a basketball fan at all Idc wha your team is You have to give a nod to him...Been in the league ma dlong and is still the best....Lebron is great but I don't think he's the best.
shareThe "who has the championships" arguement is pretty ridiculous to me. LeBron showed that he could be a leader of a team at a far earlier stage of his career. Had the talent been around him early, like it was for Kobe, he would have rings too. Do you really think that if LeBron was the second best player on a team the way Kobe used to be that that team wouldnt be winning championships?
which player is a better rebounder RIGHT NOW?
which player is a better passer RIGHT NOW?
which player is a better defender RIGHT NOW?
scoring is debateable (probably in Lebrons favor though, since he scores more points a game and at a better percentage).
clutch is commonly attributed as Kobe's domain that places him above everyone. That said, Id say LeBron has given us the two best clutch playoff moments in the last few years with his scoring flurry against Detroit in 07 and his Game 2 game winner this year. He's no slouch, and it isnt that big of a disparity, if it is one at all.
Kobe was on Shaq's team in Shaq's best years. He has had the greatest coach ever and much better players around him throughout his whole career. The best guy LeBron has played with is Carlos Boozer in like his 2nd and 3rd seasons. Come on now with the ridiculous championships arguement.
Well Kobe and the lakers managed to steal two of those championships you mention. I will give you last years
*pau gasol trade*
Sorry couldn't help it!
