Those guys became huge because the networks and corporations backed them on top of them having the game.

Zion is gonna be pushed by the networks and same with Luka. Only time will tell if they have the game to bring it to that level.
It also takes personality. I mean just look at the early LeBron commercials.

This is true. Networks and money pushed Shaq too but he just didn't have that same charisma as MJ, Kobe, and Bron.

Bro you making it a LeBron vs. Kobe thing. I prefer not to participate in those debates anymore.

In the ‘08 Olympics, Kobe was at his peak and LeBron was a 23 year old with 5 seasons under his belt.

U said LeBron was a step below Kobe and MJ overseas. He’s not. He was ranked #2 behind Kobe in 2016, meaning he’s right there with him. It was years his jersey outsold Kobe’s. LeBron will shut down Manila or Beijing right now if he chose to walk through.

Domestically in the U.S. for the past 10-15 years LeBron has been the most polarizing and most discussed athlete, had the highest rated games, sold the most jerseys, sold the most kicks. His high school hype is the largest ever. He would be even bigger if he was drafted by a large market like New York, Chicago, or Los Angeles. He was the Cleveland economy when he was there lol.

He ain’t below shyt :heh:

:dwillhuh:
