I was already an Aldridge fan but I like him even more for keeping it real and saying what everyone outside of LA knows.
Lebron probably wanted to say " , I took Mike Brown and Mo Williams to the finals, what's Kobe's excuse?"
Aldridge is going to get fined for speaking honesty

Kobe did the SAME thing, except on draft day as a rookie... at least LeBron gave Cleveland a chance...As for Lebron, how do you jump ship to play with all star talent and then act all high and mighty? "I've got a lot to say" Shut yo ass up fool.
Did Brown get a "fair shake" when you quit on the Cavs and his potato head ass vs Boston?
Malik isn't HH?
The goods.
Also, before anyone brings up "not one, not two, not three," I'll just mention that Kobe guaranteed at the start of his rookie year that he would lead the Lakers in scoring and be the best player in the league, before preceding to chuck up airballs and warm the bench....
Kobe didn't technically jump ship, he just swapped his ticket before getting on.
Still a move, especially since he lied to other teams about going to Europe so he wouldn't be drafted earlier...
Plus it's not like Charlotte was a bad team, they were usually in the playoffs throughout the mid-'90s...
Hey, Kobe isn't hated for no reason. Lebron's not much better, not sure why you're praising him non-stop. Just cause the man can ball doesn't mean he gets a pass.
Kobe has NEVER gotten the kind of irrational hate from fans and the media that LeBron got, when he's behaved ten times worse and is statistically less "clutch"...
LeBron's made his fair share of PR blunders, but he's learned from them... Kobe still acts like a petulant child and gets protected by the media regardless....
Kobe and Lebron are on the same ego level, Kobe just isn't afraid to show it. Kobe is hated no matter what he does, though, which is pretty funny. Maybe you remember that he proved this point in 2006 or 2007 by passing the ball much more and taking less shots, people were angry at him for doing what they wanted. That's pretty irrational.
Kobe is who he is, I don't like him, but he is either liked or hated by most of NBA fans. He was called a bust his rookie season then the best reserve player the following season. People said he was just a sidekick to Shaq and nothing more, but then he steps out multiple times when Shaq is in foul trouble and becomes arguably the best player during certain series' (Lakers vs Spurs, for example) to a point even Shaq was saying Kobe was more than everybody was saying. He has received irrational hate for years, people have downlplayed him for years as being overrated and egotistic. He had a fat head, but everybody outside of lakernation hated him for a while. Then it all changed, I dunno why, after shaq left. If a man is called a bust one year then black jesus the next, you know he had irrational hate.
The man received his fair share of hate, but we all forget Lebron has a Chosen 1 tattoo, has very poor sportsmanship and is as much of a diva as anybody else. Why? Because he's the player of the moment, just like Kobe was the player of the moment back then. They both deserve all the hate they get
King James and LA are spot on, but what do you expect from a glorified t-mac?

Read Phil Jackson's book and then tell me who has the bigger ego

Lebron didn't snitch... advantage Lebron, tbh
Lebron can be a diva and at times, but Kobe's narcissism is off the charts comparatively. It's reflected in their game, Kobe only passes to prove a point, Lebron does it to set teammates up. Pass1st, you have good takes but then say Lebron's ego is more covered up, yet you mention the Chosen 1 tat. Doesn't add up. Whatever issues Lebron has, he isn't known as a lockerroom cancer, coach killer, snitch or rapist, so that has to count for something.
I know Kobe is no saint and he has faults like everybody else. You on the other hand put Lebron on a pedestal, juggle his balls in your mouth and when he's wrong or makes a mistake, you call it "a bad move from his PR team"
And the dude is not even a clipper, if he was, the 24/7 riding would be hilarious to witness
Kobe has had public feuds with Shaq, Karl Malone, Phil Jackson, Smush Parker, Andrew Bynum and I'm sure there are others..in addition to publicly trashing the Lakers organization on numerous occasions, refusing to play team basketball, snitching on a teammate, etc..
Lebron and Kobe may have similar egos, but as teammates and overall at ude, they aren't even remotely comparable..
Nobody arguing who is a better teammate

Laker fans, if they are like you, must really,really hate D.Howard then.
Right?
