NBA legends discuss LeBrons legacy, Kobe says LeBron has no excuses, needs to be a better leader

[Homeboy Runny-Ray]

The one thing LeBron could learn from Kobe is the way he plays the media and controls narratives.
Kobe is sitting here talking like all he cared about in life was team success and people actually buy that shyt

whats even funnier is how kobe is acting like hes some sort of modern-day activist all a sudden.

TNT bringing him in to speak on all the black history month specials like he wasn't coooning his whole career.

why bother??​

 

[Benefited]

Kobe still trying to inspire Lebron

 

[Rakim Allah]

He's saying hardware trumps all. Duncan's got more.

Championship hardware, something the Media can't give you.

It's just like trump phenomenon. You just have to to accept the fact that most people are full of shyt. People consciously choose to believe lies.

 

[Shadow King]

So every other panelist sounds like the rest of the world and Kobe sounds like his stans

 

[FreshandClean]

Kobe sound bitter lmaooo

 

[Super Cheech]

I agree with Kobe.


I don't give a fukk about just appearing in the Finals. I wanna win.


Miss me with that "I hit the rim!!!! YAAAYYYYY" shyt

Ask Kobe why he didn't do a better job leading Smush.

The only year Smush was a relevant NBA player was the one year he averaged 11ppg playing with Kobe.....

 

[FlyRy]

Kobe has no room to talk. Most fortunate superstar ever.

I wish he had stayed with the hornets

Sadly he's the type the networks love for these topics. Anything with Kobe = ratings and he's safe and won't say anything controversial that will anger white people.

 

[The_Third_Man]

You keep using this term

It is lame af

What are you? A Sexual Warrior? A Bandwagon Bottom? Let it go bro

The people who root for LeBron root for LeBron. The people who root for KD root for KD. This, shockingly to you, is standard.

Anybody who supports LeBron and admires his game -including me- and has an issue with Kobe’s answers is delusional.

If you couldn’t see that his leadership is the one skill that he THOROUGHLY needs to work on you’re blind as a bat.

Kyrie won a ring with him and STILL walked.
He used to treat Chalmers like an intern.
He can mess up the whole energy of the team with his open disdain after every little mistake
His mixed messages of wanting it to be a team (same suits) BUT wanting it to be all about him and each player to be perfect..
His handling of coaches...
Etc etc

Sure, the Warriors are hyperstacked.. that’s the challenge. We got it.

Instead of throwing your players under the bus, lead them and show them what you expect AND back them up when they miss.

Missing is fine, not putting in 100% is not.

Kobe is a 5-time champ, more than anybody on that panel. He thinks 180o differently than anybody on that panel. I wonder why he has more rings.

LeBron’s #1 job is figuring out

‘Why did Kyrie leave, was it me and if so what did I do wrong?’

‘Why does Hood go from 17 in Utah and Clarkson from double digits in LA to completely disappearing?’

Once he can drop his ego and his ‘I’m the best in the world’ we know you are but MJ was too and he was tough on his team BUT he lead them AND trusted them (Paxson, Kerr, Wellington with key game winners).. THEN we can have the conversation about his legacy.

If nobody, except Kobe, is willing to open their mouth - expect more of this.

In the real world you don’t motivate only with fear, you need to give support and truly lead the way for each player

Kobe said it best:

Bryant: You've known me long enough to know what my answer is.

All facts

Nikka got some self-reflection to do

When bad things happen to you over and over again...its time to start thinking about whether you're causing the problem

this is a guy who had an entire team built from scratch around him from 2004-2008 but he's the most fortunate superstar ever
