Hi Cow Lebron was drafted back in 2003 and was listed as 6'8". He was just 18 or 19 at that time and there's a possibility that he grew a couple of inches while he's in the league. It's a fact that Lebron is probably 6'10" and Kobe was around 6'7" to 6'8". I know most of us haven't seen them both that's why we can't tell if their height was accurate as it was listed, but I'm pretty sure that Lebron is not only 6'8", he's taller than that. Kobe is around 6'8"(Drafted and listed at 6'6", grew some inches while in the league) and Lebron is probably 6'10". Just look at KD, he was listed at 6'9" when he got drafted and look at him now, he's probably not 6'9" anymore and I think the present KD is probably around 7 feet tall.

hassan haulcy basically he’s saying lebron is great actually very great but he’s not better than me and Jordan taught me a lot so much that I took his spot 🤷🏽‍♂️

I cant stop watching these

I love how he talks about his greatest rivals and have nothing but positive words and just utter respect for them. You’d think with how the media portrays him that he would talk trash about these players just like he does on court but no. His ego is as big as it can get on court but of court he is just humble.

Kobe really respect T-mac, 7-all star, 2 scoring champ, 13 pts in 35 seconds, etc. I would say Tracy McGrady is one of the most underrated player in NBA history.

Leon Hong not really. He was huge back in the day but everyone and himself agreed he slacked on defense and he also would just try to get scoring titles and not win when he believed his team lacked the personal to compete for a championship. He didn’t have the drive of Kobe or Lebron to carry a bunch of bums deep into the playoffs.

He really developed a lot of humility through all the trials he had - learning to win again without Shaq, then facing the Achilles and all the other injuries. Which I think gave him a real appreciation for how much he was able to play and accomplish. So he really tries to give that back to all the people who are coming up behind him.
