"By 2013, after watching Kobe since his debut in 1996, even Magic Johnson acknowledged that LeBron was the only player with a real shot at becoming the greatest of all time."

The KLUTCH Sports Group / LeBron affect trying to erase Kobe Bryant from the GOAT debate exposed in 4k 📸: Colin Cowherd 2011: “Kobe been the best player for about a decade” vs. 2016: “LeBron has been the best since 07’, & Kobe may have never been the best player in the league” shannon sharpe 2012: MJ Kobe are the top 2 all time. vs. 2017: Kobe is 10th all time. nick wright 2012: Kobe 5th all time, & the second best player I’ve seen. vs. 2017: LeBron the only person to join the list.. but somehow Kobe goes back 3 spots to 8th. Also he had Kobe>Duncan (like everybody else) but now argues that Duncan may better. Stephen A Smith 2012: Kobe 2nd all time behind only MJ. vs. 2022: Kobe isn’t top 5, then goes on to talk down on Kobe’s 3 rings with Shaq.. when he has BOTH Magic & Kareem top 5. The agenda pushing to get Kobe out of the GOAT convo is so obvious it’s insane. Good thing NOBODY fell for the agenda only kids & Kobe haters take it serious 💯

Dwyane Wade calls LeBron James the greatest player to play for the Miami Heat: “If you want to be honest, LeBron James is the greatest player to ever put a Miami Heat jersey on… I’m the greatest player in the history of the Miami Heat, with the body of work that I had wearing that jersey. But I’m not the greatest player to put on a Miami Heat jersey.” (via Wy Network by Dwyane Wade)

kobe averaged 10 more ppg than any other player in the entire 2010 finals, with a broken finger on his shooting hand. while boston fought with all they had trying to prevent him from scoring. in game 6, they said even if the lakers lose he would STILL get fmvp, bc he was that far and away the best player of the series. my brother, lets be real. 😂

Has LeBron James had a great basketball career overall? Sure! Is he the greatest player of all time? Not even close! Greatness does NOT flop or fake nonsense as a common MO!

Make it plain Coach K. We all know the “Kobe was never the best player in the league” was a ploy started by Nick Klutch Sports Wright to remove Kobe from Goat debates when it’s clearly the worst worthless piece of garbage ever said in NBA discourse. Kobe was the best player in the league for 7-10 years straight. And that’s me being objective and considering all things.

During his Asian tour, Austin Reaves, who has played 4 seasons with Lebron, was asked who his GOAT is. KOBE BRYANT was his answer. As a drafted player who has survived The Lebron Process, Reaves is a rarity. 🫡 to comrade, Altc◎inHuckstΞᚱ (p , p), for the footage

Kobe was better than Nash in 2006, everyone knows that Nash won the MVP because MVP is more of a team award, goes to the best teams best player. Just because Nash won MVP, doesn’t mean he was better than Kobe Even his teammate Tim Thomas agrees

MJ: "You only got three, I got six." When asked in 2017, who ranks higher between LeBron and Kobe, MJ picked Kobe. His reasoning: "Would I rank LeBron over Kobe in terms of best of all time? No. There's something about five that beats three." The goal has always been to win championships. Trying to include Robert Horry in the conversation is just a red herring. People try and use Kobe's 00 Finals average as an indictment to his contribution to winning that ring but fail to bring up Kobe's defense in game one, holding Reggie Miller to 1-16 in a decisive 104-87 victory. Feel free to read that again. To show you Kobe's value, he was injured in game 2 after almost 9 minutes of play and what was a 17 point victory turned into a 6 point victory and a 9 point loss in game 3 without him. Indiana could've easily won game 4 after Shaq fouled out, and we all know what happened next. Kobe earned that ring despite how you interpret the box score. At the end of the day, Kobe still has five championships that the Lakers wouldn't have won without him. The proof in that statement lies in the fact that when Kobe had a lesser role in 97, 98, & 99, they were gentlemen swept, swept, and swept before even making the finals. The minute Kobe's role increased, they rattled off three straight championships. That's not a coincidence...

This is NUTS⬇️ "Yeah the guy took a cheap shot and hit him in the balls. I was real proud of Jauan for not losing his mind out there." Kyle Shanahan fully backs Jauan Jennings after he was hit with a cheap shot in a sensitive area at the end of the game.

The 2007 Cavs were not a horrible team. I cheered for LeBron to win it all. Larry Hughes, Big Z, Drew Gooden and Eric Snow was basically like what Hakeem had with 93 Rockets. The Cavs playoff run... -Swept a weak 41 win Wizards (Arenas Sucks) -Beat the 41 Nets in 6 -Took out the 53 win Pistons in 6. The Cavs were a 50 win team. It wasn't a miracle that they won. I was impressed with what LeBron did to the Pistons. Those were some of his best games. The Spurs were a 58 win team but, the Cavs swept them in the regular season. After the ECF, LeBron had all the momentum but, he came up short. All those Finals games were winnable. The defense did it's job but, LeBron's offensively came up short. LeBron went from 27ppg to 22ppg on 35%. Looking back, Kobe would've absolutely won if he switched places. Are you kidding me? The 22 year old version of Kobe would've lit the Spurs up. The mid version of Kobe was averaging like 33+ppg. Swap Kobe and LeBron in 2007, the Cavs would win a title while LeBron wouldn't make the playoffs with that rebuilding Lakers team.
