Bill asking that question makes him look so dumb. It's well documented that Jayson is a huge Kobe stan and bill is a Celtics fan. For him to sit like he didnt know that is so disingenuous
Kobe is skilled
Lebron is a physical specimen
Kids are gonna idolized the skilled player over a guy who gets by being bigger than everyone
