Lebron on Kobe Best Player in the Game. 

Post#1 » by doozyj » Sat Feb 16, 2008 4:13 am

Lebron just said on TNT with an interview with Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley that Kobe is the best closer in the game today and the best player in the league.

I have to tip my hat to Lebron, his stock went way up with me after that quote. Takes alot of pride to say this type of statement.

Thanks for the video post, I didn't see that one.

However I was talking about the interview just now after the Rookie/Sophmore ALL Star Game with Kenny Smith and Charles Barkley. He just reiterated that.

I can appreciate this statement, Lebron believes this is a fact.

Well, when people ask him who he believes is the best in the game and he's not going to say himself who's he going to say ?

Jamal Crawford ?

Mo Pete ?

:-?

He gives Kobe his props... That's alot better than what some others sa about him... Kobe was at a couple LBJ high school games back in the day, and actually gave LBJ a couple pair of those old school Red/White/Blue adidas that Kobe used to wear...

I think they have a pretty good relationship, and LeBron looks up to Kobe... Nothing wrong with it...

I think the same as how Kobe looked up to the 2 MJs.

I am sure Lebron, Durant, etc look up to Kobe. He is afterall a NBA icon. Arguably the best or 2nd best to play the game.

No I mean, like today he just said something and integrated Kobe in there. They didnt even talk to him about "best player in the game" topic

Why do we need a thread on this every time, he's said it a number of times before. When will the shock that he says Kobe is the best wear off?
