D’Angelo Russell compares LeBron James and Kobe Bryant’s auras in the NBA: “Bron’s more involved with everybody, with everything. On the bus he’s social, on the plane he’s social. I sat next to [Kobe] on the plane. He never talked, he was real to himself”

1. If you watched the Redeem Team documentaries, you’d find out how immense both of them are as leaders despite stark differences in personality.

2. Would’ve made a perfect good cop bad cop duo

3. DLo gotta think of the timelines

   In 2015 Kobe doesn’t have Gasol, isn’t on a championship level team in year 19.

   Lebron on the other hand, has had a championship contending level team arguably since his last 2 seasons of his initial Cleveland stint.

   I’m so not the hugest Kobe fan, and yes he was difficult & stern. But I wouldn’t compare those two men. Of course one will have higher moral.

4. This isn’t anything new. It’s been documented by several people from the inside and it’s pretty obvious from the outside. LeBron has always been that guy with the handshakes and the dancing and the jokes.

5. He isn’t called the Black Mamba for nothing.

6. That’s because you sent inappropriate ravens.

7. So basically, Lebron is a great leader who unites the team and Kobe is a whiny baby who’s ego exceeds his team’s importance
