Lebron gets locked up by the Black Mamba!steemCreated with Sketch.

Lebron has often been said to be an unguardable player. But, Kobe, knowing that obviously would get riled up. In 2013, Michael Jordan said publicly in an interview that he would pick Kobe over Lebron. While that was a great honor, it probably hurt Lebron's pride. Similarly, Kobe was under question as whether he was even a contender for GOAT. Though he obviously was, even though he had a good team on paper, in reality the team was much more of a handicap than a help. This led tensions to be at an all time high as Kobe went against Lebron in the All-Star Game and boy, did Kobe lock Lebron down.

Lebron did not score a single point despite multiple isolations against Kobe in the fourth quarter. In fact, Kobe locked him down and dominated him every single time despite Lebron, during that period, being valorized as unguardable. It was one of the greatest defence performances we've ever seen.

I don't have the money to afford better hardware so my stream crashes sometimes and it's quite difficult to make any content since I can't really edit my videos but I try to stream every weekend morning 8am-2pm Singapore time (8pm-2am Washington DC)

Sort:  

I saw that NBA All star game. Western vs Eastern close match and Lebron was defended by Kobe. Lebron literally choked. Mamba's defense too stronk to handle.

Yeah, it was one of the most competitive all-star games I've seen to date!
