Kobe knows how to involve his team and then when they need him, he puts the team on his back in the clutch. Kobe and MJ didn't have the freakish athleticism lebron has. They had to sacrifice so much more and because of it, they are legends in the sport. Lebron expected to be an NBA all star. He will never be in the same league as kobe, let a lone come even close to MJ's league. I see lebron as a freakish man child with ungodly strength and speed that never was the underdog. Because of that, he doesn't know how to reach inside and dig into the knot that sits behind your stomache where you keep your last hopes. Lebron's mother spoiled him. Lebron's high school spoiled him. The cav's spoiled him. He is now far too spoiled. You can't have a good omlette is even one of those eggs is spoiled.

He may get a ring or two and he may break some records. But he still that whiny freak man child who expects things on a silver platter. Thats why when the game is on the line and its for all the marbles, he chokes.

MJ didn't even get picked for his high school team. He made his career proving people wrong. He would make his critics eat their own words. When they said he couldn't play defense, he got defensive player of the year. When they said he was a ball hog, he became the Bull's all time assist leader. He used naysayers to fuel the fire of desire for perfection in his belly.

Just my 10 cents.
