My favorite thing Kyle Korver has ever said about Bron was in a postgame interview “when you play against LeBron you say ‘Man… that guy gets every call!’ And then you come play with him and you’re always like ‘that guy never gets any calls’”

I am born and raised in India and I didnt follow basketball at all. I moved to US in 2003 and slowly started watching basketball here and there. The Atlanta hawks was the team that I grabbed my attention and after that I started watching basketball all the time. Kyle Korver was my favorite player. It was fun to watch him shoot 3's, made it look so easy. Now Steph Curry is my favorite player. These guys make it look so easy that I tried playing basketball and I can barely dribble or make a free throw. Its always so easy to watch and critique sitting on the couch. I have HUGE respect for any NBA player even if they are on the bench and dont even get to play. They are professional athletes.

This actaully proves to me that youre a genuine caring person lol.

He was responsible for taking care of his mom, family, his city and friends and alot of other people at that point. I know if i was given that money at that age..i probably would have sqandered it all away buying useless material things like cars, clothes, sneakers, mansions, boats ext and trying to live like the famous rappers and rock stars because i never had nothing nice growing up..lebron is just built different...hes a real smart dude man..ive never seen him go through mental issues like depression, mental breakdowns ext...even when he was at his lowest when everyone was joking him about his mom banging his teammate, his hairline and basically hating dude and burning hiss jersey for leaving cleveland..he stayed solid, i wish i can be that mature and im 26, way older than lebron was when he was going through it.

Interesting. Never heard anyone point out that MJ "had" to take a break after his first 3. I understand that MJ had very close personal things happening, but I would argue that if you have worked even a few years in a career you understand that every human is battling things in their personal life and still expected to go to work every day. Not everyone can afford to drastically change the structure of their life for a few years just because of a personal incident. Not saying MJ isnt greater or whatever, but putting lebron's mental toughness in that context was insightful imo

LeBron knowing other teams plays before they do them is just crazy. The stories about his extreme memory and capacity for taking in information. Like seeing 10 different games on 10 tv screens at once and remembering every play from every game is one example. He is a basketball genius. And now hearing his work ethic is better than everybody elses. There's no coincidence LeBron is the best.
