“I’m not a fan of LeBron. He’s very talented, but he’s not always focused. He doesn’t have the intensity that Kobe, even Kobe. As much as you know how I feel about Kobe, but you can’t take away his talent and his intensity. He gives you 150 percent every game and I don’t know that LeBron does. Sometimes I see him (LeBron) on the court and he looks like he’s staring into space, then he snaps into it, but it’s inconsistent for me.”
In addition to talking about Kobe’s intensity on the court, Auerbach believes the Achilles injury could have been avoided, and says he is one of the greatest players ever:
“When I saw that injury, he didn’t need to have that injury the first one that took him out last year. I saw him fall, he said no I can go back in, saw him fall again, no I can go back in. Never should have put him in again. He was definitely off his game and they didn’t need him. It wasn’t a playoff game. I don’t understand why they did that. That to me is a case where the player ruling the team and not the coach. It’s a shame because regardless of my feelings about the Lakers and Kobe, he’s an enormous talent and one of the greatest players ever.”
