but that still doesn't take away the fact Kobe has way more drive that Lebron. If Lebron would get the Kobe and MJ drive he would've been unstoppable.
I hate this shite. So damn wrong and stupid. Because Lebron is nice he doesnt have drive? Does one have to be an a-hole and in your face to have drive? Tim Duncan is 117 years old and still playing at an elite level. His drive is through the roof but nobody talks about it because he is soft spoken and collects butterflies

4) Shaq Reflects on Kobe in 2011 Memoirs
“Kobe is a scientific dawg. He works out every day, practices every day. Most of the other stars are just dawgs, not scientific dawgs.

“Me, I’m a freak-of-nature dawg because of my size. LeBron could be a scientific dawg like Kobe, but he’s not, he’s got a lot going on like I did, so that’s preventing him from being one.”

Never said Lebron didn't have drive, but you can't tell me it's up to the level of Kobe. If you think that than you have no idea what you're talking about.

Go read the 15 other stories presented there, with most of them saying he is the hardest working player they have ever seen.

Including respected people like Gary Payton and Boeheim.

“What’s most impressive about this young man are his desire, his work ethic, his competitive nature. [Bryant] comes to the arena at 4:30, before anybody is here, and works on his game alone.

Obviously not since Dallas and the Spurs beat him.


Interesting way of putting it. So he gets credit for single-handedly beating OKC and SAS for his championships then?

I'd imagine someone with more drive to be much more aggressive at taking over a game in the final minutes and even wanting to take the game winning shot.

6) Gary Payton Remembers Kobe’s Early Words in the League
Kobe was so young and so immature in some ways, but I can tell you this: everything Kobe is doing now, he told me all the way back then he was going to do it. We were sitting on the bus once and he told me, “I’m going to be the number one scorer for the Lakers, I’m going to win five or six championships, and I’m going to be the best player in the game.”

12) Robert Horry Talks About His Time with Kobe
“I tell people all the time I used to play with Kobe Bryant.

“Kobe Bryant is probably one of the best basketball player you’ll ever see outside of Michael Jordan, Hakeem Olajuwon.

“The thing that makes Kobe so great, is that he’s a hard worker.

How do you know if he wants to take the shot or not?

There's a difference between wanting to take the shot and determining the highest percentage play in a given situation.

If there's an open guy in a corner that can hit the shot, Lebron's going to make the pass every time. I know MJ warped a generation into thinking hero ball is correct basketball, but actually passing to the open guy is the correct basketball play.

Not mad. Just confused. So if Lebron doesnt have it, how is he more successful at his age then maybe anyone in NBA history? Is he just that much better at basketball that he can overcome not having "it"? I cant believe you think Lebron is better then MJ
