LOL at anything the Bleacher Report puts out.

Bleacher Report is just a bunch of idiot Kobe homers.

LeBron James sucked last night.

That is a hell of a lede. Really pushed his creativity to the limit with that one.

Let's point out all the bad nights Kobe had.

Okay let's not, will take too much time.

Do you guys realize that lebron isnt being criticize for having an off game but being criticized for his effort during the game??

Do you guys remember christmas game against the lakers where the cavs manhandled the lakers? Did any of you notice the effort and will kobe displayed during that game despite having a horrific shooting night? While no laker showed up to play, kobe put his heart out on that game (how many of you can recall how many times kobe was knocked to the ground by a 300 pound 7footer, why? Because it was against the player who is taking his reign as best player in the nba, so he gave the effort and played his heart out despite his team not giving a damn and having a bad shooting night. Now look at lebron in an important gm 5 against boston where he lays an egg, not by shooting poorly because everyone is human but because he was so disinterested in the game...

Kobe is far older and more mature in the game as a player, dont compare 25 year old to 31 year old, compare 25 year old to 25 year old. What was Kobe doing in 2004? The whole breakup with Shaq was showing a lot less than LeBron is.

absolutely. If you remember both shaq and kobe did the same during the 04 finals.

I was just explaining to you what the reason for the "espn" bashing of lebron was about

Yes yes indeed. We all mature as time goes, that's why we have older players that are still very effective, or play way above their physical state.
