1. Never thought about it that way. Too bad they didn’t see one another in a final. Still cool narrative.

2. I’m not a Kobe stan, he was never my favorite player, but someone has to win 5 titles to be called Kobe successor. Kobe was Magic successor, Shaq was could have been Kareem’s successor, but 1 title makes LeBron maybe Wilt’s successor.

3. LeBron was a gap filler. Luka Doncic will be Kobe’s rightful successor.

4. LeBron had a pretty good career. I think we would all trade our lives for his.

5. I still believe that the Lakers fan dream before LeBron came to the Lakers was Kobe destroying him in the NBA Finals

   Edit:
   I’m fine with LeBron in LA, but back then it was just a pipe dream of him joining the Lakers.

6. The Lakers fan dream would be to play your whole career with the Lakers.

7. That olympics photo is tough.

8. He came to bury Kobe’s legacy to further his case for the best ever

9. AD did something similar with LeBron. He went from being part of his skills academy to winning a chip with him

10. Successor?
