KOBE: I’D BEAT LEBRON ONE-ON-ONE
Kobe Bryant says he would beat LeBron James in a one-on-one. “I’d do that in my sleep,” he insisted to a bunch of British fans at Lilian Baylis Old School in Lambeth.
Speaking during an interview with MVP Editor Greg Tanner, Mamba said:
“I’d win, I’d win. That’s what I do. One-on-one is..that’s easy for me, you know. Playing one-on-one is how I grew up playing, it’s like my thing. LeBron is more like a Magic Johnson – he’s a great passer and plays an all around game. At the core of me, I’m a one on one player. I’d do that in my sleep.â€
His comments came as the launched the London School of Basketball – a new initiative dedicated to providing quality coaching to more youngsters in the capital.
More on Kobe and the Lakers’ time in London still to come, so stay tuned.
Do you like our work?
We have a tiny favour to ask. In 2018 we set out to make Hoopsfix sustainable by building our relationship directly with our readers. Up until now, Hoopsfix has been creating editorials, videos and podcasts to provide sorely missing coverage of the British game and its distinct culture and community.
We have funded Hoopsfix with our freelance work creating basketball media, but sadly that means not only does it fall behind our client’s priorities, but some of those clients are the same organisations we need to report objectively on putting us in a conflicted position.
We want to devote more time to our mission of helping British basketball reach its potential, and produce even more content for the basketball community by making Hoopsfix a sustainable 100% independent business funded directly by our readers through Patreon.
If everyone who enjoys our content chose to support us, our future would be much more secure. For as little as $3 per month, you can support Hoopsfix – and it only takes a minute.
We are tremendously honoured and humbled to have a community of people who value what we do, and we look forward to being at the forefront of the British game as it continues to evolve.
