Kobe blocks LeBron twice

Found February 17, 2013 on FootBasket:
PLAYERS: Kobe Bryant,  LeBron James
TEAMS: Los Angeles Lakers,  Miami Heat

Kobe Bryant has been known to trash-talk on LeBron James, like he did so in last year’s All-Star Game. With no chance of these two meeting in the Finals, Bryant gets his chance to get his grind on James during All-Star Weekend, and he did it again on Sunday. The fourth quarter is when players get serious in the All-Star Game, and with James on a roll during that timespan, things soon hit a roadblock once he was stuffed by the Black Mamba with about three minutes left in the game: The East had a chance to rebound, but then it happened again: Bryant’s trash-talking ensued: The post Kobe Bryant Blocks LeBron James…Twice appeared first on FootBasket.

MJ, LBJ or Kobe?

You can make an argument that  Lebron James, Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant all could be rated  the number one player of All-Time. If I was a betting man, Jordan would be the number one choice. The game in the Jordan era was different, more physical, lots of hand checking and harder fouls were allowed. Second for me would be Kobe. He has the work ethic of MJ and a drive of his...
