re: Kobe Bryant sent the perfect text to Lebron after the Decision in 2010

In hindsight, it kind of makes him look stupid

quote:

---

Of course, LeBron James won a couple MVPs – and championships – in Miami. Kobe, meanwhile, has yet to win either since then.

boom

Although he has succeeded in running off every decent player that comes there. Kobe wins at being a diva bitch. He ruined the Lakers long before Buss Jr did imho fwiw tbh.

Nice try Kobe

LeBron since that text:

2 Finals MVPs
2 NBA MVPs

Kobe:
0 Finals appearances
0 Finals wins
0 Finals MVPs
0 NBA MVPs

Legit. Although Lebron will certainly rival/surpass that when he's done.


Conclusion- Lebron will almost certainly finish his career with more points, rebounds, assists than Kobe. Likely higher career PPG, with a definitely higher FG%. He will have more MVP's, he will likely be regarded as the better defender. He is the better teammate, and makes his teammates better than Kobe didd/does. Buuuuut that one time Kobe score 81 points in a game!!!!

Not only did the Lakers not win a title in that time frame, but they were utterly embarrassed in the playoffs year after year, and didn't even make it last year.

Kobe 5 of 7 nba finals winner
