Real talk from a Kobe/Lakers fan 

Post#1 » by ClubLakers KB8 » Fri Jul 9, 2010 6:01 am

LeBron couldn't handle the spotlight.

It's not his fault that he couldn't. The media passed the torch to a young kid with hopes that he'd live up to Michael Jordan, the media's king of kings (even though I believe others have been better).

If he goes to NYK, CHI, or if he stays in Cleveland, he's always going to be considered the man. Can he match Kobe's 5 rings if he stays in Cleveland? No. Can he get them in NY without MASSIVE help? No. Can he win in Chi? Yes.

Will it replace Jordan? No.

The guy was stuck. He chose the easy way out. Win (supposedly) cheap rings, get stats, and retire. No true king does that.

Remember the argument about Kobe and LeBron?

Kobe won.

I feel for Cavs fans.

LeBron should have made his decision before the trade deadline so at least they could have gotten some picks and expiring for him.

Lame play

You guys will get another #1 pick. Hang in there. The Magic got Dwight. Go CAVS!

Before the LeBron and Kobe debates begin, I think it's best to put an end to it quickly rather than to commence another one. There is no point in this topic.
