Bron was moving like westbrook back in 09

Lol these clowns don't know shyt...

They just need to watch these videos to see what it is. The same dikk heads saying he was never must watch. It was nothing like that powder toss before games, the G.O.A.T. level athleticism, transcendent court vision, and when this man was hot he could make literally any shot, like casually drilling 30 footers, drifters and fadeaways, explosive defensive plays and chasedown blocks.

LeBron been the ticket since '03, there's a reason he's been that nikka since he was a junior in high school

This nikka had ESPN high school games and Pay Per View high school games and y'all really wanna argue

I've seen Kob play in Philly, Jersey, NYC, DC & Charlotte

No one wowed a crowd like the Mamba

MJ is the only person in the same class

Bron is a bigger draw than Kobe, numbers don't lie more jersey sales, more shoe sales, nikes top draw, highest finals ratings since mj and the bulls

 

[waltthizzney]

Kobe emotionally connects to the public unlike beta bron

Fucc that nikka

 

[10bandz]

Theres literally proof that Kobe has gotten more love from road fans than Bron ever could and nikkas still on here arguing.

This nikka got MVP's chants at every road arena in like the mid 2000s

 

[Thegospel]

Kobe fans can't grasp that their boy is mj lite still to this day . I fukk with Kobe though

 

[Dwight Howard]

Every tangible measure proves that LeBron has been a bigger draw since he's been in the league

This wouldn't be a debate if LeBron played for a historic franchise in a massive media market

nah. bron not getting mvp chants on the road. he has never been the spectacle kobe was. kobe is the bigger draw globally

Lakers fans travel well and Kobe/Lakers fans/stans are in abundance in every city

There's literally proof that LeBron sold more jerseys, was a part of the highest rated games since the 1998 NBA Finals, sold more sneakers and merchandise, sold out arenas, has had ridiculous road games, was apart of the Heatles, and had a huge economic impact where ever he went but nikkas is still arguing

Dumb ass Kobe stans arguments is road MVP chants started by his stans

If LeBron played his entire career on the Lakers, Bulls, Knicks this shyt wouldn't even be a debate right now and LeBron would be even more box office.

the jersey sales argument isnt telling at all...bron has had 3 different jerseys over a 10 year span.

These dudes are fukking retards. LeBron in Miami was HATED, rooted to fail, arenas packed, extra buzz in the crowd. The atmosphere when he joined Miami and first faced Cleveland was crazy.

When LeBron came to the Garden pre-Decision people had custom LeBron James Knicks jerseys. Knicks fans were fiending for him. Dude dropped a 50 point triple double on us, one of the best MSG performers ever.

The term Heatles was created because they were the Beatles of basketball, it was packed house and extra animosity when they came to town.

LeBron dropped 51 in Orlando just to show up the Orlando GM Otis Smith on some comments he made...


I think you'd probably have to go MJ to answer this thread but all these guys filled all the seats when they came to town.

LeBron James has been Nike's highest earner, has sold more jerseys than Kobe, people who study television ratings have talked about a "LeBron James Effect" and he has been apart of the highest rated NBA games since the 1998 Finals but dumb ass delusional Kobe stans are saying he's not a draw and nowhere near the Mamba.

this nikka typing up a bunch of nothing

Bron fans are so emotionally fragile and are so scarred at the fact Kobe is more loved than Bron these nikkas can't look at anything objectively. This isn't even a thread about who's a better player all time or any of that. It's simply about who's more box office. This nikka yapping about "The Knicks were fiending for him" "Bron dropped 51 on Orlando" "The term Heatles was created" nikka who the fukk cares.

Knicks fans (YOUR TEAM) were dikkriding the fukk out of Kobe, and road fans was cheering Kobe when he was dropping 50+ on em


You can't post no videos of Bron getting this much love from road fans, and a lot of this is WAY before the retirement tour so I dont hear noting about that

In 2013, it took me an hour to get to Philips Arena when a normal game would take 15 minutes.

That 3rd quarter had people going nuts.



The Lakers are the most popular team in the league over the past 20 years for a reason.

Yup...Kobe was getting mvp chants all over the league

Mention box office and not mention bean brehs.

don't mention a player whose rival fan base chanted MVP for him brehs.

C'mon, man. Kobe was getting MVP chants in basically every arena in the league.

Bron dont got none of that shyt

This nikka talking about LeBRon selling jerseys and Nikes like that has anything to do with road games

Be a Knicks fan from New York that dikkrides LeBron and 6fraud more than the Knicks and NY rappers brehs

if Bron played on the Lakers he'd have more than 3 rings because Kobe would've blessed him

What happened when Bron and Kobe were both in China in 2008 nikka Bron got 1/10 the love Kobe got

Kobe had seniority over LeBron nikka. It was LeBron's 5th year in the league, what was it Kobe's 12th? Kobe and LeBron's career overlap at that point Kobe was the bigger worldwide star, more accomplished player, and still marketed as star of the league he was in his prime, this was before LeBron's first MVP.

I don't give a fukk how many Kobe stans chanted MVP on the road. Through love and hate, LeBron's been the most polarizing player and biggest draw in the league objectively speaking since he stepped foot in the NBA. David Stern will tell you that shyt himself. Reject facts, brehs.

And LeBron would get Finals MVP every single time over Kobe you bytch ass nikka

09 is when dude officially became a GOAT level player....dude was fukkin amazing that year

 

[360Waves]

anybody that follows the NBA KNOWS Kobe has always been a bigger draw than LeBron. I mean its not close. Kobe has a cult following even overseas in Japan, etc..

We have numbers, the thing Kobe stans hate, to actually support statements like these, and none of them are in Kobes favor...

LeBron triples Kobe in both Twitter and IG followers...

The NBA was bordering on TV ratings irrelevance during Kobes prime while every LeBron finals minus 07 continuously sets the mark for TV ratings records post Jordan. The Miami Heat single handedly revived TV viewership for the NBA regular season.

The massive TV deal the NBA got that allows for all these crazy salaries is purely based on the resurging interest in the league that came with the rise of LeBron. Hint hint, ESPN is bleeding cash right now from that TV deal because LeBron is getting older and the Warriors even with all their star power haven't been half the TV draw he is, and ratings are beginning to plateau.

And LeBron is under a microscope that Kobe never was. I mean dude tweets song lyrics and you Kobe stans make multi page threads trying to psycho analyze the tweet and it's national news on ESPN.

But tell me more about how legendary Kobe is because he got MVP chants on the road. Which btw LeBron has done too. Also bare in mind LeBron has been a bigger TV draw than Kobe without the luxury of playing for a legendary franchise and massive TV market. And y'all nikkas think it's close.
