Thomas Sankara he averaged 29/7/6 in the 2001 playoffs. Which sidekick does that? And what are you talking about trying to somehow compare Dwyane Wade and Shaq, lol. Shaq is levels above this guy and during his peak, in those three years, not even Lebron would win those Finals MVP’s. SHAQ averaged 36/14/4 in those 3 finals combined. Let that sink in

[@manvirsandhu508]

@Roman Blitz lebron does not have the work ethic of kobe or jordan. if he did he would have had a consistent jumper, footwork, and post game. lebron's whole game is relied on his god given athleticism and passing ability. thats why jordan never respected lebron.

[@manvirsandhu508]

@Roman Blitz lmfao sure he does. why doesnt anybody talk about his work ethic then? If he had work ethic he would have more moves than relying on his athleticism to power through people to get and 1s and inflate his fg%. he will never have the aura of a jordan or kobe. forget bout it

[@cond9187]

@Roman Blitz lebron leaving Cleveland in the first place before the team could draft around lebron for a better squad prolly left a sour taste in MJ mouth because he did give up on Cleveland. MJ never gave up on Chicago until management was trying to do his teammates dirty.

[@cond9187]

@Roman Blitz it took them 3-4years to build around mj, mj is that type of talent you can build around. That's also what makes him the most complete player man. Yeah no doubt lebron is the best of the newest generation and definitely deserves to be on nba mount Rushmore

[@cond9187]

@Roman Blitz why would I need to imagine? MJ quit because the owner didnt pay pippen bruh, he was on that team for a solid 13 years and then the owner got greedy. That hurt MJ bro

Rest up Kobe Bean Black mamba Bryant the greatest

[@ArmandoKozomara]

Skip talking about NO one knew how close they were or that they had that type of relationship. But if you follow Kobe like I have and watch his interviews you would have known that he wanted to pick Mike's brain all the time, call him, be mentored by him. I'm confused as to why Skip is so surprised. He didn't know. “Sports journalists” and “basketball experts”.

Consider this: Kobe grew up a different color in a different country. Had to be a loaner as a child in that environment. Once he blossoms & starts getting recognition it's like a drug & he can't stop. He needs it, because he can't ever go back to being that little quiet black kid in Italy. Since I've overcome all this, I'm ready 95% dudes ain't built like this. And if they are, I'll out work them. Cause I'm never going back to being irrelevant again
